Cascadia Rising 2016

A 9.0 magnitude earthquake along the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) and the resulting tsunami is the most complex disaster scenario that emergency management and public safety officials in the Pacific Northwest could face. Cascadia Rising is an exercise to address that disaster

... This thread is to post information on active feeds, and frequencies that are directly being involved (if any day-to-day channels are used they can be added also)​

I spent about 15 minutes looking through the info. and I didn't see anything about "active feeds and frequencies".​

I spent about 15 minutes looking through the info. and I didn't see anything about "active feeds and frequencies".

Standard "in-place" EOC comms are going to be used, per the ExPlan

I spent about 15 minutes looking through the info. and I didn't see anything about "active feeds and frequencies".

There will likely be all kinds of different comms used. This could be federal frequencies, State OEM and EOCs, Local tac channels, Ham Radio, all kinds of things. There is no single resource of who will be using what.

That's the objective of this thread is to note anything people come across while scanning.

Almost forgot to mention that I had noticed activity on one of the Region 35 interop 800 channels while driving. It was someone reporting that the AT&T Mobility cell site on Boeckmann Road in Wilsonvillle had been damaged and two techs were missing. Didn't jot down which channel it was as I was driving in a bit of traffic but definitely one of the 800 mHz interop channels.
