LIVERMORE, CA — The Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department is asking Livermore residents to sign up for a new emergency notification system.

ZoneHaven is used elsewhere in the Golden State to assist first responders and emergency agencies with coordinating evacuations in case of emergencies, such as wildfires. ZoneHaven provides residents with emergency updates and resources, such as real-time shelter information, weather and traffic information.

Livermore residents are encouraged to create a ZoneHaven account and check their emergency zone here, in case evacuation warnings or orders are issued for their neighborhood.

"When an emergency strikes, knowing your zone is important," the Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department said. "It's how you will know if you are in an impacted area that must evacuate and where you should go."

The fire department also encourages residents to sign up for AC Alert — the system currently used by Alameda County and city agencies.
