[StBernard] Mobile Command Center: St. Bernard Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness

[Westley Annis]

St. Bernard Parish proudly announces that it has secured a Mobile Command
Center for the Office of Homeland Security.  This command center is a
replacement of a command center that was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina.
Through the efforts of FEMA and the state, St. Bernard Parish Government was
able to secure the funds for the replacement.  The Mobile Command Center
will be fitted with all the required communications equipment in the near
future to allow for the command center to be deployed to any incident in the
region to support St. Bernard and the other surrounding parishes.  It will
also be utilized in small incidents by the St. Bernard Parish Fire and
Sheriff Departments, which will have equal access to the Mobile Command
Center to utilize it in an Incident Command structure.  This Mobile Command
Center will be presented to the residents of St. Bernard Parish in the
upcoming local Mardi Gras parades.
