The official spokespeople don't mention it, but there is also a tendency for local officials to divert fuel delivery trucks for their use insteadof maintaining communication facilities.Perhaps a company will get in the business of labeling trucks that normally say fuel to something like "spoiled milk" during such events and specialize in refueling certain customers. ;) I *think* I'm kidding.After we went down at Telehouse 25 Broadway during 9/11 because theNational Guard halted one of the deliveries... I'm open to just about any suggestions incase of another incident. Maybe "Firefighting Foam RefillTruck" would be better. Or just "HAZMAT CLEANUP".
You need to make sure you know how to get the DOT waivers (in advance) for fuel deliveries and other deliveries. Knowing which FEMA region you are in and where the JFO and how to properly coordinate with them may help avoid these types of problems. It may take some time to sort through the issues, but it may help to review the NRF, and know what the government means when they say NOC or NICC.
http://www.fema.gov/pdf/emergency/nims/jfo_sop.pdfMay be a good place to read up on things, as well as what your role may be under ESF #2 or other NS/EP roles. It's not exactly the most enjoyable reading in the world, but it may provide some insight into what is going on.
