    A Guide to Birding in Israel & Trip Report for 25th April – 5th May 2019 Trip Report author: Steve Arlow [email protected] Blog for further images: https://stevearlowsbirding.blogspot.com/ Purpose of this Trip Report / Guide I have visited Israel numerous times since spring since 2012 and have produced birding trip reports for each of those visits however for this report I have collated all of my previous useful information and detail, regardless if they were visited this year or not. Those sites not visited this time around are indicated within the following text. However, if you want to see the individual trip reports the below are detailed in Cloudbirders. March 2012 March 2013 April – May 2014 March 2016 April – May 2016 March 2017 April – May 2018 Summary of the Trip This year’s trip in late April into early May was not my first choice for dates, not even my second but it delivered on two key target species. Originally I had wanted to visit from mid-April to catch the Levant Sparrowhawk migration that I have missed so many previous times before however this coincided with Passover holidays in Israel and accommodation was either not available (Lotan) or bonkersly expensive (Eilat) plus the car rental prices were through the roof and there would be holiday makers everywhere. I decided then to return in March and planned to take in the Hula (for the Crane spectacle), Mt. Hermon, the Golan, the Beit She’an Valley, the Dead Sea, Arava and Negev as an all-rounder. However I had to cancel the day I was due to travel as an issue arose at home that I just had to be there for.

  • City of Pittsburg
    City of Pittsburg Emergency Operations Plan December 2018 City of Pittsburg Emergency Operations Plan This page intentionally left blank. ii December 2018 City of Pittsburg Emergency Operations Plan Emergency Operations Center Activation QuickStart Guide The City of Pittsburg (City) Emergency Operations Center (EOC) serves as support to the command and control by the on-scene incident response. When an incident occurs, there is often insufficient information to determine if the EOC should be activated or how long an activation may last. If this condition occurs, a virtual or partial EOC activation may be initiated. More detailed information on emergency activations levels is contained in Section 4.2.3. Once an EOC activation is commenced, the first arriving staff should use the QuickStart Guide to efficiently setup and operate the EOC. When activated, the EOC responds to the impacts that any incident has on employees, facilities, critical and other infrastructure, and business functions. The EOC carries out this function through: • Information Collection and Evaluation • Operational Planning • Resource Management • Priority Setting • Overall Priorities - Life/Safety - Incident Stabilization - Property Preservation iii December 2018 City of Pittsburg Emergency Operations Plan EOC ACTIVATION CHECKLIST COMPLETED Date/Time TASK Activate the City EOC by assuming the role of EOC Director. Follow building inspection instructions. Consider which EOC should be activated based on damage and inspections. Establish the level of activation with the City Manager’s Office. Use Everbridge to send an EOC Activation notification to staff. The EOC Supply Cabinets are in various areas and contain appropriately titled boxes for each EOC Section. Place the appropriate material at each of the identified workstation locations.

  • Inventory of Existing Conditions
    Buchanan Field Airport Master Planning Program Field A. INVENTORY OF EXISTING CONDITIONS Buchanan A > Inventory of Existing Conditions INTRODUCTION. Buchanan Field Airport (CCR) is the major general aviation reliever airport serving Contra Costa County and multiple communities located in the northeastern portion of the greater San Francisco Bay Area (see Figure A1). The Airport has been a catalyst for business growth in the region and has served as an anchor for the local employment base, as well as meeting the aviation transportation needs. Situated in an unincorporated portion of Contra Costa County, directly adjacent to the thriving urban heartbeat of the City of Concord, Buchanan Field Airport is a vital component of the transportation infrastructure serving the region for tourism and business. Buchanan Field Airport is well equipped to serve regional demand related to general aviation and business aviation needs. The Airport has a reputation as being an excellent aviation facility that offers a safe and efficient operational environment. The Bay Area continues to experience significant increases in business activity, commercial and residential growth, and economic development. Because of this, Buchanan Field Airport is also being presented with increasing operational and facility demands. Many of the areas surrounding the Airport, with many high quality homes and environmental amenities, have experienced significant residential development, resulting in homeowner concerns about the effect that the Airport may have on their lifestyle. Some of these homes and facilities are located within a two to three mile radius of the Airport. Thus, the Airport may influence the social, economic, and physical environments of the area in which it operates.

  • American Canyon Emergency Operations Plan
    CITY OF AMERICAN CANYON AMERICAN CANYON FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLAN 2009 - 1 - American Canyon Emergency Operation Plan LETTER OF PROMULGATION Approval Date: 11/17/2009 To: Officials, Employees and Citizens of American Canyon The preservation of life, property and the environment is an inherent responsibility of local, state, and federal government. The City of American Canyon has prepared this emergency operations plan to ensure the most effective and economical allocation of resources for protection of people and property in time of an emergency. While no plan can completely prevent death and destruction, good plans carried out by knowledgeable and well-trained personnel can and will minimize losses. This plan establishes the emergency organization, assigns tasks, specifies policies and general procedures, and provides for coordination of planning efforts of the various emergency staff and service elements utilizing the National Incident Management System (NIMS). The objective of this plan is to incorporate and coordinate all the facilities and personnel of the City into an efficient organization capable of responding effectively to any emergency. This emergency operations plan is an extension of the State Emergency Plan. It will be reviewed and exercised periodically and revised as necessary to meet changing conditions. The American Canyon City Council gives its full support to this plan and urges all officials, employees and the citizens, individually and collectively, to do their share in the total emergency effort of American Canyon. This letter promulgates the American Canyon Emergency Operations Plan, constitutes the adoption of the American Canyon Emergency Operations Plan and the adoption of the National Incident Management System by the City of American Canyon.

  • Runway Safety Report Safety Runway
    FAA Runway Safety Report Safety Runway FAA Runway Safety Report September 2007 September 2007 September Federal Aviation Administration 800 Independence Avenue SW Washington, DC 20591 www.faa.gov OK-07-377 Message from the Administrator The primary mission of the Federal Aviation Administration is safety. It’s our bottom line. With the aviation community, we have developed the safest mode of transportation in the history of the world, and we are now enjoying the safest period in aviation history. Yet, we can never rest on our laurels because safety is the result of constant vigilance and a sharp focus on our bottom line. Managing the safety risks in the National Airspace System requires a systematic approach that integrates safety into daily operations in control towers, airports and aircraft. Using this approach, we have reduced runway incursions to historically low rates over the past few years, primarily by increasing awareness and training and deploying new technologies that provide critical information directly to flight crews and air traffic controllers. Other new initiatives and technologies, as outlined in the 2007 Runway Safety Report, will provide a means to an even safer tomorrow. With our partners, FAA will continue working to eliminate the threat of runway incursions, focusing our resources and energies where we have the best chance of achieving success. To the many dedicated professionals in the FAA and the aviation community who have worked so tirelessly to address this safety challenge, I want to extend our deepest gratitude and appreciation for the outstanding work you have done to address this ever-changing and ever-present safety threat.
