Our EOC is located in my office w/back up power. We have an MOU with the City of Snoqualmie to share there EOC if ours is damaged, or shut down for some reason.

4. What are we working on now Currently installing Back up Gens. at our 2 Clinics and the Tribal Admin. building We have just received 5 more 800MHz. Radios and we will be getting them distributed in about 2 weeks to our Disaster Team members. We also have a few employees that take radios home with them and provide road reports on winter weather days, that I use to inform Members and employees, via e-mail about reporting to work.

5. What we are working on now We also have VHF back up radios in 4 of our facilities and a mobile unit in the Directors car. We have just received a CEMNET radio from state EMD, which will be installed in the new Mobile EOC, which we have applied for. We have 4 HAM radio technicians, with more ready to go thru the training, as soon as we can get one set up.

MRC & Disaster Team We have started our Medical Reserve Corp (MRC) and will be working closely with the NWTEMC-MRC as we train and build our MRC Our volunteer Disaster Team is in place and we are almost finished equipping them. They are continuing to take extra training like CERT and Red Cross shelter set-up.

We obtained the self contained trailer from EPA and co-trained with ESF&R, Fall City Fire, Duvall Fire and the KC Dive team. We have worked out all the call out protocols via an MOU.
