7. SIGN UP FOR OURAY COUNTY TNS -- (Target Notification Service) TNS gives geographically targeted alerts so you know about evacuations, sheltering, and very serious emergencies, like evacuation during a wildfire. Traditional land-line phones are automatically enrolled. If you have a cell phone or are a landowner living out of town this is the only way you will know! A valid physical address of your home or property is required. TNS sends a voicemail and text. This is different than WENS and you really need to sign up for both.
