Thurston 911 Communications (TCOMM911) is upgrading the Thurston County Emergency Radio Network (TCERN) used by first responders in Q4 2024. All radio users on the current network will be transitioned to the new radio network and as a result, all properties with an in-building ERCES (emergency radio communication enhancements system) currently operating on the TCOMM911 emergency radio system need to have those in-building systems updated. This update will allow the ERCES to operate properly on the new radio network.
TCOMM911’s resources for property owners, property managers, vendors, building code officials, and fire marshals are made available on this webpage. Note that that information and resources are being updated regularly, so please check back often for updates.
Stakeholder Town Hall Meeting 9/26/24: TCOMM911 hosted a virtual town hall meeting for
In-Building ERCES owners, vendors, AHJs in Thurston County. The meeting was
held to inform stakeholders about the upcoming change in the TCOMM911 radio
system and to provide resources to support the identification, assessment,
migration, and activation processes for existing in-building ERCES within
Thurston County. Meeting artifacts and related resources are linked below:
