Due to increased visitor use of the Rand BLM facility in recent years, and proposals to pave and use portions of the old CCC camp site for equipment storage, the Grants Pass Resource Area needs to determine the scientific significance of the Camp Rand site in accordance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. The purpose of the field evaluation was to determine the content, depth, variability, and integrity of any archaeological deposits, and to document the location of former Camp Rand structures. In addition, research was conducted to augment and synthesize the known history of the Camp Rand. This report presents the results of these investigations and recommendations for future management and interpretation of the site.

  • The Search Intelligence Process
    Journal of Search & Rescue, Volume 4, Issue 1 April 2020 The Search Intelligence Process Christopher S. Young Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Search & Rescue Team Chairman Bay Area Search and Rescue Council (BASARC) USA Email [email protected] Abstract The Search Intelligence Process of gathering information regarding the missing subject occurs during every search incident. We recognize intelligence information is used to build a subject profile; gather lists of people with first-hand knowledge of the missing subject that we want to talk to; develop scenarios; and task investigators to research and mine information from various sources, like social media or cell phone data, to determine where to look and what to look for. However, during the initial stage of an active search for a missing person, intelligence gathering can be very daunting, chaotic, haphazard or worse not initiated thus delaying the compiling of crucial information that could shorten the time it takes to locate the subject. In any other aspect of the search operation like ground searching or technical rope rescue we preplan, train and develop processes to be more efficient. This presentation will discuss the search intelligence process by: defining the various sources of information available to use developing pre-plans for the gathering of intelligent information, developing decision trees, developing lists of reflex tasks, developing algorithms for transitioning between the initial actions into multiple operational periods and eventually to the termination of search operations, and develop ongoing training curricula with the goal of creating efficiencies and hone the necessary skills to perform the intelligence gathering process. KEY WORDS: Intelligence Gathering, Missing Person, Interviewing.
