Who to Call
Emergency lines, the county, the water company, NDMA and the radio stations — with only the numbers we could verify on official pages.
The offices and channels residents actually need. Only contacts we could read off a live official source carry a phone number — for the rest we say where to find them instead of guessing.
Where these numbers come from

Police, fire and ambulance — 999
The National Police Service's toll-free emergency hotline; 112 and 911 also connect from any phone
