Communications
The communications section operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and is the direct link between the citizens of Nolan County and law enforcement officers in the field.

Under the leadership of Sergeant , the communications section is staffed by 6 Telecommunicators, (also referred to as Dispatchers or Communications Officers) that are considered the "first" first responder, who receive calls from citizens needing assistance and are required to provide accurate and complete information to emergency personnel in a timely manner.

To achieve this objective, Telecommunicators operate multiple programs, answer emergency and non-emergency calls, monitor multiple radio frequencies, prioritize calls received and forward information to emergency personnel. (e.g. Fire and Rescue, Parks & Wildlife Services, County Patrol, Highway Patrol, etc.) During severe weather, Telecommunicators notify and communicate with other resources as necessary (e.g. County Precincts, TXDOT, utility companies, wreckers, etc), this all being done at a fast demanding pace.

Essential Job Functions:

  • Receive and screen routine and emergency telephone calls for fire and law enforcement.
  • Receive routine and emergency law enforcement and fire radio traffic on assigned radio channels.
  • Enter data into Communication Assisted Dispatch (CAD) computer system.
  • Operate various voice radio frequency channels.
  • Operate multi-line telephone system.
  • Follow strict guidelines of policies and procedures of the Nolan County Sheriff's Office.
