Public Information Requests

In the interest of promoting open government, the County of Berks Department of Emergency Services makes available several avenues for obtaining information from the Department.

Incident Time Response Logs

This link provides several documents containing every incident record for the past ten (10) years.  

Incident History Audit Request

Through this process, it is the policy of DES to ensure that staff involved in operations where there is performance that is noteworthy or beyond the norm is made aware of their involvement, and their performance is recognized as having been important to the outcome.  Likewise, when staff fails to perform to expectations, this process is one of the ways that opportunities for retraining or potentially for discipline are recognized.  All persons wishing to make known a situation requiring further review by DES management shall contact the DES on-duty Watch Officer by telephone at (610) 655-4921.
