Port Ludlow Emergency Committee
In a major earthquake or storm, help from outside may take days to arrive. Your Block Captain is the trained neighbor who checks on your street first.
Type your street name — for example Timber Ridge or 103 Rainier Lane. You can leave the house number off.
Results appear below once you finish typing.
Block Captains are volunteers from your own neighborhood. After a disaster they check that neighbors are safe, note who needs help, and pass that picture by two-way radio to a community communication center, which relays it on to Jefferson County. They are not first responders — they are the first people to know whether your street is all right.
Port Ludlow is organised into 37 response neighborhoods, each divided into Response Areas of roughly 10 to 20 homes.
Look up your own street above to find yours. For anything more — a question about your area, or if you cannot reach your Block Captain — contact the PLEC Chair at PLEC.Chair@gmail.com.
These neighborhoods have nobody covering them right now. If you live in one — or know someone who does — this is where help is needed most.

There is no obligation in asking. The orientation video is public, so you can see exactly what the job involves before you decide — plenty of people watch it, think about it, and decide it is not for them. That is a perfectly good outcome.
