Early morning drill to test abilities
September 18, 2017
Boundary County will activate its Emergency Operations Center at 4:30 a.m. tomorrow in a training exercise with several other agencies.

Residents with police scanners will hear radio traffic involving emergency services throughout the county, along with some military operations.

The drill/exercise is to test their abilities in responding to a simulated hazardous materials crossing into the county under suspicious conditions.

"Do not be alarmed as all this early morning activity is only a drill, a chance for us to get better at what we do," said Michael Meier, Boundary County Director of Emergency Management.

The entire drill should be done at around noon tomorrow.
