closeBELLINGHAM - The Port of Bellingham and local emergency agencies will conduct a disaster drill from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 6, at Bellingham International Airport.
Although most of the drill will be staged within airport boundaries, people can expect to see smoke, emergency vehicles and unusual airport activity during the drill. The five-hour exercise, including more than 150 local volunteers and emergency responders, will evaluate coordination between agencies, mass-casualty response, public information services, victim and family care, security and communications.
"Federal Aviation Administration regulations require a full-scale exercise once every three years to test an airport's emergency plan," said Art Choat, Port of Bellingham's airport director, in a press release. "This is an excellent opportunity for everyone to evaluate their skills."
Community volunteers taking part in the disaster exercise will be role-playing aircraft crash victims and victims' family members.
