OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- The state will be getting $29.9-million in federal homeland security funds.

Office of Homeland Security director Kerry Pettingill says the money will be used to prevent a terrorist attack, reduce Oklahoma's vulnerability to an attack and prepare on how to respond to an attack.

More than half of the federal funds – $15.5-million -- will go to the State Homeland Security Program.

Of that, $12-million will be dedicated to expanding a statewide communications program. :shock:

Good for them, Bad for us

It may good for them, but it is bad for us, because now they will have the funding to continue the "Astro-25" upgrade.

From what I've heard, they are testing Astro-25 on the State system in Tulsa area.

Just in time for OKC's EDACS Provoice.
