I will second that recommendation to applause the undying

guidance made all the difference in the world.</span></div>

<div dir="ltr">It was nearly a year and a half year ago that I
sat with Mark and Keith, and provided passionate verbal
testimony to Senator Sam Hunt, Sponsor of SB 6056, giving a
technical "boots on the ground" perspective of my
Katrina/Rita Hurricane and other disaster incident response
experiences. This was provided <span

behalf of all Radio Broadcast Engineers in Washington
State - describing the basis for needing unfettered access
to the studios and various transmission sites that are
critical to providing broadcast information to the general
public in the confusing times surrounding a disaster and
recovery effort. No other industry has proven to provide
better reach to those directly impacted citizens than
Broadcasting. Period.</span></div>

style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Keith
Shipman deserves twice the thanks since he was
integral in getting it done in Oregon, first, with
Bill Johnstone. This is an effort that has been
discussed among all of you and at the WSAB board
level since Katrina (over 11 years ago!), and it
was the dogged handful like Arthur, Clay, Mark,
Keith, Bill and others who prioritized it and got
it done. The WSAB board and OAB boards also
deserve credit along with the SBE for prioritizing
this initiative in order to give their leaders the
authority to march. Law enforcement types were
initially resistant, and this was truly a broad
group effort. Congratulations!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
