Benton County will start using a reverse 911 system to alert residents about dangers in the county.
The Emergency Mass Notification System will notify residents of severe weather and crime alerts from the sheriff’s office and police departments.
Phone numbers for the alerts are taken from public records. Residents who have an unlisted number or use cell phones as their main number can register to receive the notifications.
To register go to www.co.benton.mn.us, click on E-Services and scroll down to Emergency Notification System. Residents can register their phone numbers at that page.
