GRID System refined in second generation Like everyone, the Corona virus pandemic has forced us to cancel certain plans this summer. Regular response training drills with our industry and state partners have been postponed. But that doesn’t mean we aren’t still sharpening the tools that would be deployed in the event of an incident in Cook Inlet. Safely reducing response time is always a goal. An important tool for achieving that goal is called the Geographic Resource Information Database (GRID). LEARN MORE Committee Chairs, Vice-Chairs elected A big part of conducting regular Council business, even in times that are anything but regular, is committee elections. This month, elections were held for the PROPS and Protocol committees. Choosing experienced, qualified committee leadership is an invaluable part of the continued success of CIRCAC.  COMMITTEE LEADERS
