Points of Distribution
Tyler
County has a Point of Distribution (POD) System which would be
activated during a disaster to assist the citizens of Tyler
County. PODs are established post-incident for distributing
life-sustaining commodities (such as water, ice, food, tarps, and other
resources) to the public until power is restored. PODs generally
operate until power is restored and traditional facilities (such as
retail establishments) reopen. PODs operate during daylight hours for
approximately 12 hours and restock at night, with the jurisdiction
making any necessary adjustments based on the situation.
