Brazos County is Not Under a Burn Ban at This Time
Preparing for Tomorrow’s Challenges
In an effort to better protect and prepare our community’s residents and visitors, the Brazos County Department of Emergency Management has developed this website to provide information about getting prepared for emergencies and disasters in our County. There is information on sheltering in place or evacuation for a hazardous materials incident to links on family preparedness activities – don’t forget to plan for your animals! – to information on disaster volunteer training and the emergency notification system.
Holiday Safety Tips
The winter holiday season is upon us and here at Brazos County Emergency Management, we want to make sure you know how to stay safe while you’re celebrating.
Don’t Forget the Animals
Disasters for humans are also disasters for animals. It may be necessary to provide water, shelter, food, and medical treatment for pets, livestock, and wildlife affected during an emergency situation.
