Emergency Management
Roles and Responsibilities
The Office of Emergency Management keeps residents, businesses, and visitors safe with county and City Emergency Alerts, a comprehensive emergency plan, and resources for floods and winter storms. In addition, the office participates in a Hazard Mitigation Plan with King County and other neighboring local governments. Some areas in Snoqualmie are designated special flood hazard areas, therefore, the City of Snoqualmie participates in a program called National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) which provides flood insurance protection to property owners in flood-prone areas.
Leadership
Fire Chief Mark Correira, who brings over 30 years of experience in emergency management and preparedness, leads the Office of Emergency Management. Chief Correira serves as the Incident Commander and Emergency Operations Center Director in emergencies, with Deputy Fire Chief Mike Bailey serving in a backup role.
