A motion was made and seconded to adopt the code as written. This was approved.
We introduced ourselves.
Don Martin announced the SW Fleet/Harbor Community Watch would be having a picnic on August 12th at noon and would like to have CERT representation.
On August 9th, the Coast Guard is having a First Responder drill at the Newport hospital and they need volunteers to "act".
Ed Simon from Central County CERT Steering Committee spoke.
He spoke about Lincoln County being broken up in many "islands"
He spoke about keeping individuality for each CERT organization and the need for drills.
He talked about grants and explained the need for the Steering Committee to assure consistency and oversee the CERT organizations.
Bill Pigott explained the need for government involvement in grant applications and grant money received by our organization.
There is a liability question what agency is responsible for CERT members participating in a planned drill or an actual event? This is a large issue and needs to be dealt with.
The meeting was adjourned at 5:55 P.M. and we all left for Newport to attend the Lincoln County Tsunami Preparedness Workshop.
Respectfully Submitted
Joan
