Subject: RE: TIM Teleconference Agenda
Greetings to All,
Sorry I missed the teleconference on 9/2/99. Unfortunately, I had a
conflict that I could not resolve.
I did make a presentation to the FHWA Regional Incident Management
Conference last week in Dallas on behalf of the ITE TIM Committee. There
were approximately 170 attendees from around the State of Texas (several
out of State attendees as well). I promoted our committee work, goals and
objectives. I also asked for volunteers and assistance (especially from
the public safety perspective). I did list our web-site and e-mail
reflector as well. John Corbin/Steve Cyra......I need to discuss
"targeting" a few of the attendees for our leadership committee.
Thanks for your support and interest in the ITE TIM Committee!
Michael Ogden, P.E.

#6. A*COMCARE SYMPOSIUMS - from

From: "Corbin, John" <john.corbin@dot.state.wi.us>
Subject: A*COMCARE SYMPOSIUMS
Evidently, there is a COMCARE seminar planned in Florida. I believe
that it is an event with local objectives (i.e. not intended to serve as a
national symposium). Two quick questions:
1. Jeff Hannah, any more insight into the schedule and purpose of
this Florida event, and will COMCARE consider offering these elsewhere
across the country? Seems like this E911-oriented event could bring
some key public safety players towards the ITS table.
2. Other refectories, do you have any examples of successful
conferences or working events that have been conducted in your local area
to precipitate dialogue with the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP)
people, emergency service comm. center operators, and the National
Emergency Number Association (NENA) contingent?
Thanks in advance for the insights. Let's start exploiting this
reflector!!

Many of you may find these sites of interest:
For EM (EOC) situation reports for Floyd go to
http://www.dem.dcc.state.nc.us/
The http://www.dot.state.nc.us/
site has been altered to provide emergency info which you may also find
educational (we did).

Subject: TIM: A*PUBLIC SAFETY-TRANSPORTATION COALITION -Reply
John, as requested in your 9/15 e-mail, spent a few minutes on the train
scanning the initial draft related to "Initiating a National Public Safety
& Transportation Coalition". Interesting perspectives provided in
the draft. My regards to the small task force who took the time to
draft this report, first cut.
It looks good. Only perspectives I have are related to format and
structure to present the current issues in a context that compels the
reader to understand the need for a national level dialog on certain
issues based on the problems defined. These will be high level
comments, from the perspective of a practitioner/transportation
professional. In effect, these are my individual comments, and
should not be considered the perspectives or position of FHWA:
1. Status Quo: May want to consider changing this
heading, is this background, history, current practice, etc.?
Disagree with sentence 2, would recommend removing or substantially
revising. The context of this sentence does not fit with the first
sentence. The strategic planning for the deployment of ITS, and the
subset of development of standards (which is a different process
altogether), are only one of a number of components that influence
incident management and provision of emergency services. If the
focus of this coalition is to be only on ITS and the integration of public
safety into this arena, state it specifically. Also differentiate
between strategic planning that is referenced and what is the intended
focus of this effort. Is the focus only ITS? Is it related to
transportation related incident management?
Based on the desired focus, clearly define what the problem is?
The first sentence identifies a deficiency, but does the reader understand
why a local problem related to cooperation and coordination relates to
where your proposal is heading? Based on that problem, is it
apparent that something on a national level is needed to address the
identified problem or the focus that will be later defined?
Based on a defined focus, would suggest that additional information be
added that focuses reader for the next section titled proposal.
based on the first paragraph, I as a reader was not bought in what is your
problem, what is missing, why can't someone who is doing something similar
address this issue, etc. Would suggest subsequent paragraphs as you
determine appropriate to address what are the current professional
organizations that address similar issues, what is their focus/charge,
what is their role related to the desired context of this coalition
(referenced in previous paragraph), what are the
gaps that exist? Why has this not been done in the past?
2. Underlying issues. Some of the information that addresses
the issues identified above are located in this section and the following
(Need). Would suggest in the reformatting that it is clear what are
the local issues, what are gaps in practices that warrant discussion by
national professional organizations, what is the intended influence and
outcome of this dialog, why has this dialog not occurred given these
groups, how will the proposed coalition will meet the identified
deficiencies and efforts influence the practices at the local level where
the identified problem exists.
Good first start. Look forward to the next version. Give me a
call if you need clarification or additional information related to these
comments.
THANKS!
