Colstrip Police 9-1-1 Center
The Colstrip Police Department assumed the responsibility for the 9-1-1 Emergency Center in September 2004. The 9-1-1 Center staff numbers five employees, who are trained in emergency dispatch procedures. The Center handles all emergency 9-1-1 calls in the Colstrip area and dispatches police, fire and ambulance personnel. In addition the dispatchers monitor air traffic communications in and out of the Colstrip airport.
The 9-1-1 Center is truly a life line for the community.
