Gulf Coast Agencies Build Network for Oil Spill
June 16, 2010
Less than a month after the Gulf Coast oil spill began, the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) could access a 700/800 MHz interoperable radio network featuring fingertip roaming throughout the Gulf Coast region. Building off the Louisiana state radio network, Brant Mitchell, deputy director, Louisiana Governor’s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (GOHSEP), reached out to Mississippi, Alabama and Texas to create an interoperable regional network. http://mccmag.com/onlyonline.cfm?OnlyOnlineID=180
Do you think Deepwater Horizon will inspire terrorists to attack oil derricks in the Gulf? CBS News (Couric/Orr} says, “NO.” Comment at http://www.texican8.com.
My husband is there now- although I’m not an expert on the logistics of dispatching troops once they’re down in L.A./other gulf states, it seems like administrative problems are the biggest obstacles in analyzing reservists’ quals, etc. and getting them to the right place. If there was a way to expedite the process, I think things would go a lot more smoothly.
