However, the Local Emergency Planning Committee, headed by George Gupton, and the LEPC Subcommittee on Communications is aiming to help overcome some of these challenges. Creating better lines of communication between emergency crews such as the fire departments, sheriffs and medical responders is a top priority. This prompted the development of the Subcommittee on Communications. It was formed this past year and is chaired by Bryce Nordgren. Some of the objectives the committee has worked on includes gather requirements for a radio programming kit, extending the West End fire channels to Superior and Alberton, and creating an Emergency Operations Center. The committee is made up of local emergency personnel, as well as amateur radio or ham, operators. It was through their association with this subcommittee that led to the formation of the Mineral County Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) club. During their monthly meeting on Dec. 1, members discussed the status of their objectives and what will need to be done as the group heads into 2017. One item up for discussion was the requirements for the radio programming kit. County agencies, such as fire and sheriff's departments, medical responders, and road personnel need to make sure their radios are programmed consistently and remain consistent. /////////////////////////////////////////// WIA: General Meeting Under Clause 8.3 (b) Cannot Proceed at This Time: Posted: 18 Dec 2016 04:11 PM PST http://www.eham.net/articles/38268 On the 1st of December this year the WIA announced that, under clause 8.3 (b) of the Constitution, it had begun the process of calling a general meeting of members to consider motions for the removal of four WIA Directors. The WIA Secretary then received questions from members about the number of members required to call the general meeting, and if the requirements under the Corporations act for 5 percent of the membership to call a general meeting would take precedence over the WIA's own Constitution. |
