TOWN OF WATERFORD
FY2026 BUDGET REQUEST
DEPARTMENT: EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
BUDGET FUNCTION
The Waterford Emergency Management Department is the managerial function charged with creating the framework within
which the Town of Waterford reduces vulnerability to hazards and copes with disasters. The Emergency Management
Department protects the community by coordinating and integrating all activities necessary to build, sustain, and improve the
capability to mitigate against, prepare for, respond to and recover from threatened or actual natural disasters, acts of
terrorism, or other man-made disasters. This is accomplished through partnerships and cooperation with surrounding towns,
State and Federal agencies, as well as commercial organizations.
The Waterford Emergency Communications Center employs ten full-time dispatchers and three part-time dispatchers. The
primary purpose of the Waterford Emergency Communications Center is to receive, process and disseminate information to
police, fire, Waterford Ambulance Service, YNHH Lawrence + Memorial Hospital Paramedics and neighboring public safety
agencies. The Waterford Emergency Communications Center is a 24 hours per day, 365 days per year operation that works
with every Town of Waterford Department and the Board of Education. The Waterford Emergency Communications Center is
in constant communication with Public Works crews and utility companies during storms. The Waterford Emergency
Communications Center serves as the core of the Waterford Community-wide Emergency Action Plan and information center,
and disseminates information to other Emergency Operations Centers within the Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) surrounding
Dominion Millstone Power Station.
The Waterford Emergency Management Department continues its partnerships with the City of New London, New London Port
Area Marine Group, the Dominion Millstone Power Station, the Connecticut Department of Emergency Management &
Homeland Security (DEMHS), CT DEHMS Region IV, the Connecticut Department of Energy & Environmental Protection as well
as several other government and non-governmental agencies.

TOWN OF WATERFORD
FY2026 BUDGET REQUEST
DEPARTMENT: EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
FY2026 BUDGET SUMMARY
The proposed FY 2025/26 Emergency Management Department budget is $1,230,035. This represents
an increase of $33,273 (2.78%) over the FY 2024/25 approved budget. Personnel costs represent
91.49% of the total budget while operations represents 8.51%. The majority of line items have no
change or minimal change.
| prepared this fiscally conservative budget while limiting spending where able, and increasing funding
only when required to meet departmental mandates.
The most significant changes to this year’s proposed budget are shown in the table below:
| UPSEU Contracted Wage Increase 2.5%
| 51440 Dispatch Personnel Increase $22,061
| 51920 FICA Increase $2,472
The proposed FY 2025/26 Emergency Management and Waterford Emergency Communications Center
(WECC) budget allows the Town of Waterford to maintain current Federal and State standards of
acceptance. As the Town of Waterford has a nuclear power plant within its borders, the town must
comply with required objectives from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission while being prepared for
natural and storm related emergencies and disasters.
This budget represents three municipal responsibilities; Emergency Management, the Waterford
Emergency Communications Center and some aspects of the Town-wide P25 radio system. The majority
of costs for the Town-wide P25 radio system are for radio maintenance & repair expenses.
Series changes (up and down) are explained below:
51000 series — This series represents 91.49% of the Emergency Management budget. It has increased by
2.84% due to contractual raises.
52000 series — This series increased by $2,233. Increases are due to increases in certain utilities and
service costs.
53000 series — There were no changes to this series.

DEPARTMENT: EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
DEPARTMENT METRICS
The data in this section refers only to calls taken and computer entries by dispatchers in the Emergency
Communications Center. Activity reported by police, fire and EMS may vary as a result. The emergency
dispatch center answered a total of 39,166 telephone calls during FY 2024. There were 51,087 incidents
recorded in the Computer Aided Dispatch System (CAD) during the same timeframe. Police self-initiated
activity contributes most to the discrepancy between the previously stated numbers.
9-1-1 Calls
The Waterford Emergency Communications Center (WECC) handled 8,828 9-1-1 calls during FY24. That
is an average of over one 9-1-1 call per hour for every hour of the year.
Police Dispatch
The WECC entered 30,158 incidents into CAD for routine and emergency calls for assignment to the
police department during FY 2024. This was a decrease of 2,495 for FY24. Some incident types such as
applicant fingerprinting and other administrative tasks are no longer reported to dispatch resulting ina
lower number of recorded activity for the police in dispatch. These incident types are recorded in the
police department’s records management system (RMS).
Fire/EMS Dispatch
The WECC handled 20,929 routine and emergency calls for assignment to fire/EMS in FY24. This was an
increase of 903 from FY23.

This line remains unchanged. This line item is used to purchase radiological monitors, warning and

LOOK AHEAD
The Emergency Management Department is not anticipating any personnel or operations changes that
will significantly affect the budget over the next several years. The department is actively working ona
project to replace the end-of-life public safety radio system and add statewide interoperability. This
project is estimated to cost approximately $6,500,000. An updated cost is expected in February, 2025
adjusted for changes in the scope and design of the system. The Emergency Management Director,
Finance Director and First Selectman are actively working to secure funding from sources outside of the
Town of Waterford to subsidize the cost of this project as it has many regional benefits for public safety.
