SSU or Overhead Management Team Activation

IF THIS IS AN EMERGENCY, PLEASE CALL 911!

For Land and Inland Waters:

  • 1. If the police have not been called, call them first.
  • 2. To activate the Overhead Management Team or the Special Services Unit, please call:
    • In the Victoria area: 383-1011 and ask to be put through to the Duty Officer
    • Outside Greater Victoria: 1-800-663-6106 and ask to be put through to the Duty Officer
  • The Duty Officer will contact the Incident Commander for SARBC, as well as the police (if this is an active or recent search).
  • If a response is authorized then either the Overhead Management Team, the Special Services Unit (or both) will be activated.
For Marine or Air (including flares)

PLEASE CALL THE RCC (Rescue Coordination Center) at 250-363-2333 or 250-363-2994 (non emergency). While we can pass information on, the RCC prefers to talk to you directly as they will have questions that only you can answer. Please call them directly.
