Barry County Commissioner Ben Geiger Tuesday activated Barry County’s Emergency Operations Center (EOC) to monitor and respond to the flooding on Crooked Lake in southern Barry County.

The county EOC coordinates response and recovery efforts by human service agencies and state and local government. “The health and safety of county residents is our top priority, and today’s action helps ensure we’re all working together to help those dealing with flooding.” Geiger said.
