Kent Emerson
Director of Emergency Management

Office Hours
Monday - Friday 8:30 a.m.-5:00 p.m.
(on call as needed)

The Amelia County Department of Emergency Management (DEM) coordinates efforts to ensure that the County is able to mitigate, prepare for, respond to and recover from any type of natural or man-caused disaster. Amelia County uses an all-hazards approach to emergency preparedness, which means that planning efforts consider all types of man-caused disasters that could occur in the County or Region.

The Department of Emergency Management encompasses the entire County and the Director works in collaboration with other Community Groups and/or Agencies, including The Amelia County Fire Department, The Amelia County Sheriffs Department, The Amelia Emergency Squad, the Red Cross and all Regional and State Emergency Services providers.

The Department was created in July of 2008 and Mr. Brian "Kent" Emerson was hired in February 2009 as Amelia County's first Director of Emergency Management.
