The Middlesex Emergency Management Committee helps educate residents about how to prepare for an emergency and coordinates the delivery of state and local resources to provide support when a disaster affects the community.
The Emergency Management Coordinator organizes town efforts with the Vermont Department of Public Safety’s Emergency Management Division. The Coordinator, Director, and the appointed Emergency Management Committee work with local and district emergency personnel in cases such as flood, drought, and accidents involving hazardous materials.
The Emergency Management Coordinator and Emergency Management Director are actively working to form an emergency management committee.

The Town maintains a Local Emergency Management Plan (LEMP) that is updated as needed and re-adopted by the Selectboard annually. The LEMP outlines the chain of command that will be in place in the event of an emergency and identifies key resources and contacts that may be needed or called upon. The plan also identifies vulnerable populations so everyone's needs can be addressed appropriately.
The LEMP contains information that could be helpful in dealing with an event like a major storm, flooding, an extended power outage, a heat wave, a hazardous material spill, or a pandemic; any large event that disrupts the operation of the Town or impacts its residents. It is submitted to the Vermont Emergency Management Regional Coordinators by June 1st.
