Various reporting stations later estimated the size of the earthquake at about 10.5 however later conceded that given the amount of energy released were meaningless as the 8,000 mile long North American Plate began sliding over the small plate.

The Washington State emergency management complex at Camp Murray were gone with the wind and the FEMA undeground complex was buried underr 50 feet of lava and ash.

Earlier this year your office provided me with address to mail a public service donation and flash drive of the emergency management network system and it arrived and somone throught it might constitute a terrorist threat or something. A Detective Kevin Wong Nevada Department of Public Safety (kcwong@dps.state.nv.us) read me my rights and during a 41 minute interiew... apparently decided I was a public service and not a criminal of something.

Detective Kimg Wong suggested I not deliver any more materials..... I am almost completed update of entire network (done every 2 years) and will be finished in a week of so.

I have appended a Presidental Authorization .... to provide services and other materials if anyone has any questions. Sorry for any embarassment this may have caused your staff....

My research shows this is the email to national guard asking for delivery address from Santa Maria CA last year: A complete set of transmission reports to Nevada and other counties is attached.

As when the 1400 foot communications tower fell over in south Dade during Hurricane Andrew the MetroDade Commander barricaded himself in the Coral Reef Hospital and hoped for the best. Certainly the Emergency Management team hadn't forseen that massive incoming calls on the 911 system would overflow and prevent them from calling out of their command post for 3 days. The immortal words of Emergency Management Coordinator Kathering Hale of Dade County in 1993 asking when the Calvary or assistance would arrive after Hurricane Andrew?

Over a year later I interviewed the Florida State Senator incharge of the emergency management issues who indicated he told the calvary not to arrive. The Senator explained that someone from Dade County had voted the wrong way on an appropriations issues and the more misery coming from Dade County was music to his ears

From US News and World Report 9-12-1005 Page 43: "Actually things were going right at first. The network of towers, repeaters, and base stations that make up the city's emerency communications sytesm survived the hurricand and continued to operated until about 2PM on Monday, August 29th.

That when a strong guest of wind sent a large shard of glass hurtling through the air toward the roof of a downtown skyscraper, home to the generator that powered the city's main emerency communications transmitter. The glass punctured the radiator, causing the generator to shut down.... With electricity out city-wide emergency workers could not recharge their batteries in their two-way radios, so these too began to go dark... The final straw? State police at a checkpoint stopped technicians sent to repair the damaged radiator on the main emergency communications generator.

As it became apparent FEMA Director Ron Brown was not capable of responding to the Hurricane Governor Rick Perry of Texas opened the big heart of Texas and saved countless thousands of Hurricane Victims by busing them to Texas. It was later brought out that Director Michael Brown donated$75,000 to President George Bush Jr campaign and thereby qualify to run FEMA

Hurricane Maria
ABC News Article

Tuesday, August 28, 2018
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico --

An independent investigation ordered by Puerto Rico's government estimates that 2,975 people died within six months as a result of Hurricane Maria. The findings issued Tuesday by the Milken Institute School of Public Health at George Washington University contrast sharply with the official death toll of 64.

RELATED: San Francisco medical team to provide more than healthcare in Puerto Rico It's also about double the government's previous interim estimate of 1,400. Researchers say there was a 22 percent overall increase in the number of deaths from September 2017 to February 2018 compared to previous years. They say the initial low counts came partly because physicians lacked training on how to certify deaths after a disaster. They say the elderly and impoverished were most at risk. A spokesman for Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rossello did not mmediately return a message for comment.

MIAMI (AFP) Wed Oct 26, 7:20 PM ET Victims of Hurricane Wilma's wrath in Florida pressured officials for relief as they suffered a third day without electricity and scant basic supplies, while Governor Jeb Bush admitted the emergency relief effort "didn't work as it should."

The White House, meanwhile, announced that President George W. Bush, the governor's brother, would visit the hurricane-damaged region Thursday. In Mexico, officials estimated damage from the ferocious storm was costing 15 million dollars a day in lost tourism revenue from the glitzy Yucatan peninsula, while in Cuba tourism officials said the sector would be back on its feet in a week.

At least nine people died in Florida in connection with the storm that pummeled much of the Florida peninsula Monday, according to police and local media. Hurricane damages were estimated between four and eight billion dollars in Florida, California-based risk analysis firm EQECAT said. Before hitting Florida, Wilma had devastated Mexico's Yucatan peninsula and Cozumel island, leaving at least 10 people dead. Four people died in Cuba during pre-storm evacuations. In Florida, all along the eastern coast, the same scene of desperation repeated itself. Thousands of people filled the streets in search of water, ice, food and gasoline (petrol) they needed to cope with widespread power outages.

Some six million people were still without electricity. The lack of power made restoring water pressure difficult. More than 70 distribution points for water, ice and food had been opened in the state, the governor said, and their number should increase to more than 80 in the next few days. Nevertheless, many of the aid centers did not function as expected Tuesday, and supplies were snapped up Wednesday as people waited in long lines for scarce aid. The snags sparked criticisms of the state and federal governments, especially the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), still under fire for its slow response to the victims of Hurricane Katrina in late August.

The complex aid system "didn't work as it should yesterday, and I probably raised the bar too high... we did not meet those expectations and I accept responsibility for that," Governor Bush said at a news conference. Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Alvarez said the provisions sent by FEMA to his county had already run out. "Everything that the federal government has provided to us has been distributed... we're not holding back anything," he told reporters. "It's the process and how it's structured, and it's flawed... and I'm not blaming anyone," he said, adding that the delivery of aid to the people had been bogged down for hours in red tape.

Acknowleding that people were "frustrated, disappointed, angry," the mayor said: "I think the system needs to be reviewed." David Paulison, FEMA's acting director and a former chief of the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue Department, said the long lines seen Tuesday could have been avoided. "That's why we tell people, have 72 hours of food and water, so you don't have to stand in line," Paulison said. "But regardless, we're going to make sure to increase the supply line."

Calamity or Capitalism?
By Tom Carter

In late December of last year, a 7.1 earthquake off the coast of Taiwan severely damaged Asia's undersea fiber-optic cables, disrupting telecommunication circuits across the continent. China and Southeast Asia saw their communications capacity fall to between 2 and 10 percent, and though a portion of service has since been rerouted to alternative fixed lines and suicidally slow satellite transmissions, the P.R.C. has yet to fully recover from the technological aftershocks, what Mainlanders are now referring to as the "World Wide Wait.

Repair status is conflicting, with Chinese telecom officials publicly alternating between evasive ("the work is slow because of complicated conditions"), blameful ("the repairs are done by other companies we commissioned") and unrealistically optimistic ("a few more days"), as quoted in the state-run media. International news sources cite a more likely and longer completion date of early-March for a return to full capacity, perhaps due to what global news service AFP disturbingly reports as China "relying on 19th century technology to fix a 21st century problem.

In an effort to downplay the crisis, China precipitately announced that it expects to become the world's largest Internet user, overtaking the United States with an estimated 137 million users. That's quite a bullish forecast for a country that has suffered nationwide telecommunications outages since the new year. In fact, internet blackouts are nothing new to foreigners residing in the People's Republic, who are accustomed to limited access to overseas sites that have been blocked by the central government's web monitoring entity, commonly referred to as The Great Firewall of China.

But the newest online paralysis resulting from the recent natural and technological calamity has most certainly affected international businesses in Mainland China, many whom rely on consistent online communications and B2B transactions to stay above international water. Even multinational conglomerates Google, Microsoft and Yahoo, who are already struggling in the Asian market, are now regularly met with "cannot display" time-out errors. Conversely, China's e-commerce giants just don't understand what all the fuss is about. China News Service reports that amidst the first several weeks of Internet outages, Chinese-based ISPs boasted a 99 percent uptime as the country's largest web corporations including Sina, Baidu, Alibaba, Tom and Tencent saw their site traffic, and earnings, multiply.

But for China's Internet-deprived expat community from Beijing to the Bund, hope is literally on the Verizon. A consortium of international telecom providers including China Telecom, CNC and U.S. carrier Verizon have jointly invested $500 million in the construction of a new Trans-Pacific Express (TPE) Cable Network connecting Mainland China directly with the United States. The next-generation submarine optical cable system, expected to be completed in 2008, will span the Asia-Pacific at 60 times the present capacity, rendering obsolete the damaged FNAL cables beneath the Taiwan Strait.............

The governors of several states commissioned a study about 30 years on the problem of "classic dymanic failure" and a possible solution was created which is described in the appended file.

In the 1980's several Governors including Florida Governor Lawton Childes and Governor Pete Wilson of California believed that FEMA responses to disasters were often slower than needed and commissioned an interstate study project and advocated the Interstate Compacts for Mutual Assistance. The Stafford Act was created in the cold war Era as a response to nuclear war and based on a central chain of command structure used by the military. Review of Incidents Classic Dynamic Failure

http://cwaltersgonefishing.net/afterdarkportal/win/axuillary.htm

In a major disaster communications systems are often disabled and the first responders are not able to assume their roles because they are engaged in surviving the event. The recent comments by Washington Major General Bret Daugherty was that the expected earthquake in Washington State would drop ever highway overpass in western Washington; and other reports project loss of most electrical and communications capabilities. Creation of Auxiliary Communications or Stand Alone System

http://cwaltersgonefishing.net/afterdarkportal/index.html
(Outline of 2016 Version County Data Not Online )

The installation of all of Washington States vital information with each county emergency management office means that no matter how ever sever the communications outage is everyone can still see everyone else and already has access to vital emergency management plans needed to effect work. The entire program is 767 MB and can easily be transmitted by FEMA to states such as Texas, NY, or California for instance and give these folks instant access to information they need to respond.

How to Create and Install A National System On The Cheap If they federal government or FEMA wishes to create and install this system nationally, I could hold a 2 week class in a FEMA facility for 2 members of each states National Guard. By training about 20 persons at a time; they would learn how to create and install the system in their own states and update the data as needed.

Please pardon the intrusion there was some question of a major earth quake in Pacific NW and the FEMA prepartions for an event which could kill up to 2 million persons in worth case scenerio:

http://www.afterdarkportal.net/win/auxillary.htm

Given the extraordinary nature of the projected event a question might be asked if the US Navy has been adequate planning for response and recovery since the earthquake is expected to "drop every overpass in Eastern Washington" according to National Guard General Daugherty.

The Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act)[1] is a United States federal law designed to bring an orderly and systemic means of federal natural disaster assistance for state and local governments in carrying out their responsibilities to aid citizens. Congress's intention was to encourage states and localities to develop comprehensive disaster preparedness plans, prepare for better intergovernmental coordination in the face of a disaster, encourage the use of insurance coverage, and provide federal assistance programs for losses due to a disaster.[2][better source needed]

The Stafford Act is a 1988 amended version of the Disaster Relief Act of 1974. It created the system in place today by which a presidential disaster declaration or an emergency declaration triggers financial and physical assistance through the Federal Emergency Management Agency[3] (FEMA). The Act gives FEMA the responsibility for coordinating government-wide relief efforts.

The Federal Response Plan includes contributions from 28 federal agencies and non-governmental organizations, such as the American Red Cross. It is named for Sen. Robert Stafford (in Senate 1971–89), who helped pass the law.Congress amended it by passing the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, and again in 2006 with the Pets Evacuation and Transportation Standards Act.
