SQLDependency thread

Question

i am in the process implementing SQLdepenency i would like to know in case of Dependency Handler exeuctues will it spun a different thred from main Process ? What will happen when the event handler triggers? Do i need to worry about any multithreds issues?

public void CreateSqlDependency()
{
    try
    {
        using (SqlConnection connection = (SqlConnection)DBFactory.GetDBFactoryConnection(Constants.SQL_PROVIDER_NAME))
        {
            SqlCommand command = (SqlCommand)DBFactory.GetCommand(Constants.SQL_PROVIDER_NAME);
            command.CommandText = watchQuery;
            command.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
            SqlDependency dependency = new SqlDependency(command);
            //Create the callback object 
            dependency.OnChange += new OnChangeEventHandler(this.QueueChangeNotificationHandler); 
            SqlDependency.Start(connectionString);

            DataTable dataTable = DBFactory.ExecuteSPReDT(command);
        }

    }
    catch (SqlException sqlExp)
    {
        throw sqlExp;
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        throw ex;
    }
}

public void QueueChangeNotificationHandler(object caller, SqlNotificationEventArgs e)
{
    if(e.Info == SqlNotificationInfo.Insert)
        Fire();
}

It works in a separate thread, but there is only one such thread for all notifications. Have a look at the SQLDependency section in this article
