Culminating five months of training and development, the Central Maine Regional Incident Management Assistance Team, commonly called the Central Maine Regional IMAT, will conduct a “Wildfire Exercise” in the Pittsfield-Clinton-Burnham area Saturday, Oct. 20. Somerset and Kennebec counties will be joined by responders from Waldo County as well. The exercise will begin at approximately 2 p.m. and will run for approximately six hours into the early evening.
Both Somerset and Kennebec emergency management agencies urge the public not to be alarmed by the increase of emergency response equipment and volume of radio traffic surrounding this joint exercise.
For more information about the exercise, contact Robert F. Higgins Sr., director of Somerset County Emergency Management Agency, at 474-6788 or Kelly Amoroso, director of Kennebec County Emergency Management Agency, at 623-8407.
