A Provincial Emergency Operations Centre (PEOC) is the centralized facility from which a province coordinates its response to major emergencies and disasters. When activated, the PEOC brings together officials from multiple provincial ministries, agencies, and sometimes federal representatives to coordinate resource deployment, information sharing, and decision-making. The centre monitors evolving situations, tracks resource requests from municipalities, manages communications, and ensures coordinated provincial response. PEOCs are equipped with communications systems, mapping technology, and facilities for continuous operations during extended emergencies. Activation levels vary based on emergency severity, from monitoring mode to full activation with all key personnel present.
