Volunteer Search & Rescue

The City of Edna Bay supports a volunteer Search and Rescue Committee that maintains a membership of volunteer rescuers and the equipment necessary to coordinate with the Troopers to locate and support citizens who are injured or lost in isolated areas within or outside of the Municipality.

The Search and Rescue Committee works with the public to gather and present information and offer emergency support supplies that fall outside of those provided by EMS and the Fire Department. The Search and Rescue Committee can also conduct drills and provide a means for the public to provide input on available response equipment, and ensures that an active roster of volunteers are committed to being available when needed.
