OLD BUSINESS

  1. CHAR-CAP update, had two meetings at County Line School since last LEPC meeting, planning coming along well.  Got a third figure today for both counties, looks like $4500 total for both.  We could have 18 Departments in exercise.  Will send letters to all departments to see if they want to be evaluated by CHAR-CAP evaluator instead of OSHA.
  2. Household Hazardous Waste.  Try to go with 2 dates May 4th at CITCO Station at M55 & M65, and April 20 in Oscoda Twp at the Sunrise Convention Center.  Need help for both, 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM.  We will not take latex paint or oil.

 

NEW BUSINESS

  1. Tier II Reports have been coming in on a regular basis.  So far there has been no surprises for 302 sites.

 

 

 

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ISSUES

  1. Had a meeting on March 6 for the DOJ Grant, it looks like approximately $26,400 for Iosco County.  Communication Equipment (800 MHZ Radio) will possibly be bought for every Fire Dept in County also Police Dept.  The 3rd District of Emergency Management will be going together to order 65 radios.
  2. The Tri County will be having a disaster drill at Delta College with a plane.  Tim will be an evaluator.
