Aegis Assessments Inc. to Provide Aegis SafetyNet(TM) RadioBridge(TM) for Hurricane Katrina Relief Efforts Tuesday September 6, 12:08 pm ET
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 6, 2005--Aegis Assessments Inc. (OTCBB:AGSI - News) announced today that it will be providing its Aegis SafetyNet(TM) RadioBridge system and a training crew to assist federal, state and local agencies in the greater New Orleans area in their hurricane relief efforts. The SafetyNet(TM) Radio Bridge interconnects incompatible radios and bridges them beyond their normal capabilities to provide immediate radio interoperability at an emergency site.
"We were contacted by APCO (the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials) to assist in providing radio interoperability to first responders in the Gulf Coast," said Aegis President Richard Reincke. "We provided RadioBridges last year to assist the Department of Homeland Security in hurricane relief efforts in Florida, and we're going to help again. Public safety telecommunications and emergency responders across the country are rallying in support of their colleagues in this critical time, and we want to do our part."
"APCO members are all about helping," APCO International President Greg Ballentine said. "They do it every day in their working lives in communications centers and emergency response roles all around the country and the world." The organization is helping APCO International members in the Gulf Coast region contact other members with either their individual or organizational needs following the devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina.
Reincke is also scheduled to appear on "Louisiana Live" hosted by Don Grady on the LA Network in Baton Rouge, La., at 3 p.m. CT, Sept. 7, 2005, to address hurricane relief efforts and emergency communications issues. "Louisiana Live" is the first program to unite a statewide audience to focus on issues that affect people in cities and towns from Lake Providence to Lake Pontchartrain and provides the opportunity to talk to the entire state.
The Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials International Inc. is the world's oldest and largest professional organization dedicated to the enhancement of public safety communications. APCO serves the professional needs of its 14,000 members worldwide by creating a platform for setting professional standards, addressing professional issues and providing education, products and services for people who manage, operate, maintain and supply the communications systems used by police, fire and emergency medical dispatch agencies throughout the world.
The Aegis SafetyNet(TM) Radio Bridge was referenced in the Congressional Quarterly last year as a provider of radio bridging or "patchworking" devices. The article stated that the idea of patchworking appears to be gaining support inside the DHS because it can provide radio interoperability at a significantly lower cost than purchasing new emergency radio systems for every agency in the country. Modern radio systems can cost $150 million to $300 million per state.
