NEWS FLASH GANG
This is a email I just received from TN State Sen Doug Overbey.
Brad,
Rep. McCord and I just had a meeting with TDOT Commissioner Gerald Nicely. Comm. Nicely indicated he thinks they have the law enforcement piece worked out or nearly worked out for the Highway Patrol to patrol the Dragon during daylight hours (8 to 8). They do not, however, have the EMS piece worked out and he says it will take a written commitment from North Carolina that the state of North Carolina can provide suitable and appropriate EMS coverage. This written commitment needs to come from someone in North Carolina with authority to commit the resources to provide EMS coverage and needs to be addressed jointly to Commissioner Nicely and Safety Commissioner Mitchell. If such a letter is and can be forthcoming, please favor me with a copy.
As you can see folks TN is stepping up to the plate here and working on the deal. Now the ball is back in our court in NC and will continue to work the deal. Thanks for everyones support. If we get this deal done it will be our turn to support the THP and EMS units on the gap by working together to keep it safe so they can complete the clean up.
