The most recent version will be available at www.southcentral.edu/crisis.

  • Minnesota Emergency Alert System Statewide Plan 2018
    Minnesota Emergency Alert System Statewide Plan 2018 MINNESOTA EAS STATEWIDE PLAN Revision 10 Basic Plan 01/31/2019 I. REASON FOR PLAN The State of Minnesota is subject to major emergencies and disasters, natural, technological and criminal, which can pose a significant threat to the health and safety of the public. The ability to provide citizens with timely emergency information is a priority of emergency managers statewide. The Emergency Alert System (EAS) was developed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to provide emergency information to the public via television, radio, cable systems and wire line providers. The Integrated Public Alert and Warning System, (IPAWS) was created by FEMA to aid in the distribution of emergency messaging to the public via the internet and mobile devices. It is intended that the EAS combined with IPAWS be capable of alerting the general public reliably and effectively. This plan was written to explain who can originate EAS alerts and how and under what circumstances these alerts are distributed via the EAS and IPAWS. II. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES OF PLAN A. Purpose When emergencies and disasters occur, rapid and effective dissemination of essential information can significantly help to reduce loss of life and property. The EAS and IPAWS were designed to provide this type of information. However; these systems will only work through a coordinated effort. The purpose of this plan is to establish a standardized, integrated EAS & IPAWS communications protocol capable of facilitating the rapid dissemination of emergency information to the public. B. Objectives 1. Describe the EAS administrative structure within Minnesota. (See Section V) 2.

  • Why Fund Ampers?
    What is Ampers? • An association of 18 independent community radio stations. • Each station is locally managed and programmed by and for their communities. • Stations create their own programming and do not rebroadcast programs from one main Twin Cities station. • The stations primarily serve rural, minority and student communities not served by traditional media with programming in 11 languages. • All are licensed as non-commercial educational stations. Why Fund Ampers? • Stations provide in-depth information about local government, educational and health news, safety concerns, and provide local artists access to the airwaves. • The stations are extremely efficient relying heavily on volunteers. • Ampers stations help to train more than 1,300 students each year. • Stations provide critical emergency information in some cases providing local officials with the only immediate opportunity to disseminate lifesaving information. A North High student announcing A band performs live from “Studio K” KSRQ’s “Saturday Morning Barn Dance” on KBEM/Jazz88 (produced by students) on Radio K What is the difference between Ampers and Minnesota Public Radio? There are two types of public radio in Minnesota, the Minnesota Public Radio (MPR) network and the smaller local community radio stations. The smaller grassroots community stations created the Association of Minnesota Public Education Radio Stations (Ampers) in 1972. KAXE’s “Ranger in My Heart,” a documentary on the Iron Range. The Ampers stations, Minnesota Public Radio, and Minnesota Public Television are not affiliated financially in any way other than the fact that all three receive state and federal funding because they are prohibited from selling commercials.
