The Sonoma County Sheriff's Office on Tuesday morning said telephone landlines are not working between Guerneville and Timber Cove.
Callers may not be able to use a landline to reach the sheriff's office by dialing 911 or the dispatch number (707) 565-2121 for an emergency, according to a Facebook post sent out around 10 a.m.
Callers should use a cellphone to call 911 or visit the nearest sheriff's office substation to report an emergency.
The sheriff's office said a telephone company is working to fix the problem, and the public will be notified when phone service is restored.
