Rumor has it that FEMA USAR California Task Force 2 has been activated to deploy to Christchurch, New Zealand in response to the 6.3 earthquake that occurred there on Monday. California Task Force 2 is staffed by members of the Los Angeles County Fire Dept. and when deployed out of the country, is part of the USAID program.
The last I heard, the team is preparing for immediate deployment, pending aircraft availability.
Good luck to the USAR team from L.A. County, work hard and work safe.
If I hear any further news, I will post it.
