Forbes Shire Council is not a lead Combat Agency, In a disaster or emergency event, as a member of the Local Emergency Management Committee (LEMC) we work to:
Advise of any interruptions to the services we provide, including the status of roads and bridges, water and waste services and more.
Restore any services which impact on the welfare and safety of our community in a timely manner.
Support emergency lead agencies and/or combat agencies to assist our community.
