Jaycee Boling (Executive Assistant with the Platte County Chamber of Commerce) contacts HFSM leadership to encourage the use of local businesses and service providers in support of ongoing oil spill response operations. She notes that the Chamber’s website (www.plattechamber.com) maintains an updated directory of hotels, restaurants, contractors, heavy‑equipment operators, and other vendors capable of providing lodging, meals, equipment, and ancillary support to the Unified Command. Boling emphasizes that engaging local merchants will strengthen community relations and expedite resource availability during this incident. This is a Drill!
