Operation Mountain Guardian - Tomorrow (Friday) in Denver
'Emergency' planned for Denver on Friday
Expect some loud noises, smoke and a lot of emergency vehicles Friday in and around Denver.
Operation Mountain Guardian
, a
terrorism-based, full-scale emergency exercise
, happens Friday at four primary locations — including Union Station — and six secondary locations.
Operations begin at 5 a.m. and are scheduled to wrap up by 4:30 p.m.
Organizers are warning
the exercise will include simulated weapons
as well as
planned responses
from 101 military, police, fire and hospital organizations.
Other locations included in the event are: Park Meadows Mall; Smedley Elementary School; the Lowry campus of the Community College of Aurora; Denver International Airport; Sky Ridge Medical Center; Denver Health Medical Center; University of Colorado Hospital; Catholic Charities in northwest Denver and Sports Authority Field at Mile High.
Money for most of the operation comes from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security through the Federal Emergency Management Agency
and the Colorado Governor’s Office of Homeland Security.
FEMA/DHS running full scale "test", "drill" tomorrow in Colorado.
The op has the handle "OMG" - could be fitting..
Obama is scheduled to visit Denver on September 27th - Tuesday.
