WOODBRIDGE — (Press Release) In an effort to further enhance communications during emergencies, the Prince William Service Authority is turning to what some consider “old school” technology.
Last month, the Service Authority signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Prince William County Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES). The organization, which partnered with the County government after 9/11, consists of 31 licensed amateur radio operators who contribute their qualifications and equipment during disasters.
