I've heard some ops on GEVENT's off the Lansing towers but that's been it up here.

I heard some traffic on G Event 13 around 9 - 9:30 PM (Battle Creek East tower), but didn't catch enough to confirm that it was oil spill related. Will listen some more tomorrow, they should be a little more active then.

Here's what I managed to get so far;

3250 - 13SPEV1 - Calhoun County Emergency Mgt/EOC
1022 - G EVENT 13 - Unknown specific use so far, but is being used for oil spill traffic
2093 - DNR District 8 dispatch - heard local CO's, one was on or at the river, traffic reference the spill.

It would also not be unreasonable to think that there may be some traffic on 3286 - 13EMD, however nothing heard there so far.

Traffic on G EVENT 13, Battle Creek East tower, several times over the last couple of hours: Male voice asking "Anybody with EPA have a radio?" Showing RID from Genessee County.

Latest development;
There are now several points along the river being staffed by medical personnel (both LifeCare Ambulance Service from Battle Creek & Marshall Firefighters Ambulance Authority). They are using H Event 28 (1037). There have been incidents over the last few days of heat exhaustion, etc. at some of the various cleanup worksites. Every evening around 1700 - 1800, Medical Command calls each site & gets a rundown of the day's incidents.

Locations from leak site downstream:
Medic 12A: Leak Site - 1 staffed ambulance 24/7
Medic 11C: 15 Mile Rd bridge - 1 EMT with rescue boat 7AM - 7PM
Medic 12B: Ceresco Dam-upstream (12 Mile Rd) - 1 staffed ambulance 7AM - 7PM
Medic 11A: Ceresco Dam-downstream (12 Mile Rd) - 1 EMT with rescue boat 7AM - 7PM
Medic 11B: G Drive N/9 Mile (Bridges Park) - 1 EMT with rescue boat 7AM - 7PM
