WHAT'S NEW

Heading into 2011 the outlook for the MMRS program is mixed; the Fiscal Year 2011 Grant is a little smaller than last year but still respectable at $281,000.  Work for the 2011 grant includes

  • Work at the Intermountain Center for Disaster Preparedness

  • Work to support disaster medical cache

  • Staff sheltering

The FY2009 award has been approved plans are being made to ensure all pre-hospital agencies have needed antidotes and respiratory PPE.  A Valley wide Haz-Medic course was delivered, and a Haz-medic sub-committee was established.

The FY2010 grant has been awarded some agencies have started to spend their money where appropriate.
