In addition, many counties have been further subdivided into as many as 9
smaller sub-sections. The numbers of one (1) to nine (9) in the far left column
of a SAME code identifies specific sub-sections of a county. If the county has
not been subdivided, the first digit of the county code will be zero (0). (See
“Description of SAME Codes”)

COUNTY SUB-SECTION CODE
The last digit on the extreme left is the county subsection. A county may be
broken into nine subsections; each number between one to nine represents a
specific county subsection.
Note: If the county subsection code is stated as 0, then that county is not sub
sectioned. To receive all of the alerts for a given county, insert 0 into the county
subsection field.
