I received this via email this morning:

Dear Citizen:

Please excuse cross postings.

This letter is to advise you that a comprehensive regional drill is being conducted throughout Eastern Montgomery County on the morning of Sunday, October 18, 2009. As part of this regional drill, two simulated incidences will be in Upper Dublin Township. One is a simulated hazardous material incident located in the office park and the second is a simulated problem with the Loch Alsh Reservoir Dam. We emphasize that the purpose of this drill is to familiarize responders of how to communicate and operate together and to provide logistical challenges to our "First Responders" and "Township Staff'. We do not expect to be closing any roadways or entering onto private property, but you will see emergency vehicles and people in response gear moving about the Township. This is only a drill and, again, an opportunity for our teams to work together.

If you have any questions regarding the drill or if your neighbors are not aware of this notice and express concern, they can contact the Fire Services Administrator, Greg Breyer at (215) 643-1600 x3272 or at gbreyer@upperdublin.net for information.

Very truly yours,

Paul A. Leonard
Township Manager
Emergency Management Coordinator
