Emergencies can happen at any time. It’s important to get prepared now to keep you and your family safe in the event of an emergency.
Whether it is making an emergency plan, getting an emergency kit, disaster preparedness for seniors (PDF), emergency preparedness for pets (PDF), or dealing with a power outage, downed power lines, flooding, extreme heat, a winter storm / extreme cold, a lightning / thunderstorm, a hurricane / tropical storm, a chemical spill, an urban forest fire, or a natural gas outage, this web page is designed to help you get prepared.
In addition, the City of Fredericton Emergency Measures Organization (EMO) is pleased to provide a copy of its public Emergency Response Plan (PDF). The plan is comprised of two parts – an overall basic plan and individual plans for the various departments and agencies involved in emergency preparedness operations at the City.
