Washington, DC,
September 24, 2008
One million dollars for Snohomish County’s new Emergency Operations Center (EOC) has passed the House as part of a continuing resolution to fund the federal government through March 6, 2009. U.S. Representative Rick Larsen secured the funding to help coordinate state and local government and Washington National Guard operations in case of an emergency or natural disaster. The legislation must clear the Senate before the President can sign it into law. ###
