How search and rescue is requested in Georgia

Step 1In an emergency call 911. The local sheriff's office (or city police) leads missing person searches; local fire and EMA support.
Step 2Local agencies use their own resources first, then nearby jurisdictions, volunteer teams and state agencies such as DNR Law Enforcement (Law Enforcement Division 770-918-6408; its Aviation Unit does long-line rescue and searches).
Step 3When local resources are exhausted, the local emergency operations center (county EMA) sends a Request for Assistance to the GEMA/HS State Operations Center communications center. The area Field Coordinator helps.
Step 4GEMA/HS assigns state resources under ESF 9, such as GSAR task forces (deployed under the State Mutual Aid Agreement), GBI canine teams, DNR, and Georgia State Patrol aviation.
Step 5If Georgia needs outside help, GEMA/HS requests it through the Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC) or from FEMA.
