Ground Operating Instructions
Ground Teams,
Requests for sandbagging are starting to filter in. We have requests for the Fargo area to sandbag now, starting at 1600 and going until dark. We also have another request coming in to assist again after school hours tomorrow. Bismarck and Beulah may also need assistance as well. Lt Col Kay has asked me to coordinate all sandbagging efforts throughout the state. This means that he and I need to know where requests are coming in at an how many people are needed so we can mobilize ground teams in the proper areas. Here are directions:
Any sandbagging operations need to be approved by either Lt Col Kay or myself. We need to make sure we use the proper forms as well: Sign-in (of personnel and vehicles) using the ICS-211P-NDCAP and ICS-218-NDCAP forms (available of the Wing web site) and CAPF 109s and fuel receipts.
Please assign one POC in your local squadrons to keep in contact with us.
