Oakland County first responder agencies, with the support of Oakland County grant funding formed the Oakland County Incident Management Team (OCIMT) in 2006. Representatives from fire departments, law enforcement, public health, public works, and emergency management have responded and supported first responders on incidents that overwhelm local communities such as the Dundee tornado, the furniture store explosion in Westland, the Rochester Hills tornado, the Grosse Pointe Woods trench collapse, and numerous other incidents and planned events. For more information on OCIMT assistance or planning assistance, contact the Oakland County Homeland Security Division at (248) 858-5300. To request assistance from the OCIMT, contact OCSD Dispatch at (248) 858-4911 and request that the IMT be activated for your incident.
