County Emergency Operations Team is Activated

At the direction of the Lee County Emergency Management, the County Emergency Response Team has activated the Emergency Operation Center (EOC) in Sanford to monitor the situation at the Harris Nuclear Plant located in southern Wake County.

Representatives from key agencies have assembled at the EOC and are prepared to coordinate response activities if necessary. County officials stress that this activation is only a precautionary measure and that at this time there is no threat to the public.

Shane Seagroves, Emergency Services Director, will serve as the EOC leader and direct the county’s response efforts.
