Why is ALERT SENSE different than an AMBER ALERT or Emergency Alert System Notification?
The ALERT SENSE Emergency Notification System is a local system for Bonneville County that notifies areas of our community during emergencies and other urgent situations. This could include instructions to shelter in place, avoiding unsafe areas or locations of Law Enforcement activity, watching for missing kids and adults, weather emergencies or disasters. These alerts can be localized to small blocks, businesses and neighborhoods, or to an entire portion of the county depending on the area that is affected. If you signed up and didn’t receive an alert, don’t panic. It may just mean you or the address you signed up with is not in the affected area.
ALERT SENSE is separate from an AMBER ALERT or other Emergency Alert System (EAS) Notifications that target devices, phones, and media in a very broad area for specific situations such as abductions and emergency weather warnings. Most cell devices are already set up for AMBER and EAS alerts when they are purchased.
SIGNING UP FOR ALERT SENSE IS IMPORTANT so you do not miss emergency information that is localized to your specific residence, business, or neighborhood that does not meet the requirements of an AMBER ALERT.

If you plan to recreate in the winter months, always plan for safety and obey rules and regulations for Snowmobiles and Tracked Vehicles. Many back country roads in Bonneville County are closed to tracked vehicles only during winter months. Traveling in these areas during winter conditions can be very dangerous with limited cell and communication coverage. Always obey Road Closed Signs and respect Private Property.
