An explosion occurred in the Nally Valley area of Tacoma (felt it shake my house several milkes away). Beeper on N primary, but units moved to Tac 2. I am not picking anything up on anything I have for Tac 2 unless it went encrypted (I locked out all the encryption channels).

Atlas Foundry- 151.655 (141.3) plant ops and paging (circa my database 9/8/06).

Bunnery definition for the under-fives

TFD Tac 3 is the main channel. Report of radioactive material in the building.

KOMO is reporting right now and king 5 has a online feed

one severly injured person. Requesting airlift to st.Joes.

I can hear the guy screaming on the radio.

the landing zone is bellermine high school on Washington Street.

what is hippa?? The ops said "remember hippa when talking about paitants over the air, only cell phone" anyone know what this is?

New health law's that came into effect like 4 or 5 years ago. Confidentiality. It's why the news sometimes does not know the condition of a patient at Harborview. Also why no names of patients even on HEARS

oh ok thanks, yeah the firefighter was giving weight, age and the company he drove for and the ops guy got really angry and told him to be careful giving out too much info on the air.

PS what is HEARS??

I think that it's just the name that is the big deal. Was that the truck driver that king5 is sauing unaccounted for.

HEARS 155.34 Amb's to hospital. Been around since the 80's I think

NWCN just said driver is still missing.

And I was just going to search for Atlas Security before all this happened. I drove my there a few days a go and tehir security car has the exact same color scheme (including the lettering on the side) of TPD.

It was interesting. My wife and I felt (yes, we actually felt vibration from it) and heard the explosion here in the valley in Auburn. Auburn FD had what sounded like a full response to a report of an explosion on West Valley Highway right after we heard it. Valley Comm indicated they had received a couple of other calls about it. After searching with negative results Battalion 31 was speaking with Valley Comm when the dispatcher advised that Tacoma Fire had just reported a large explosion within their coverage area.
