VT-Alert system for Vermont residents
VT-Alert is used by the state and local responders to notify the public of emergency situations, including chemical spills, shelter-in-place alerts, severe weather advisories, boil water advisories, and roadway interruptions. Individuals can tailor the alerts to specific locations, types of alerts, and on which devices they will be notified.
The first step is to register for VT-Alert. After registration, alerts can be modified as noted above.
