[SARES] Fw: [Scc-ec] URGENT Survey of available resources for Katrina response

ALL,
    HERE is the request from Santa Clara County for POSSIBLE volunteers. 
This is NOT an activation at this time, just a volunteer location request.

    ANY SARES member wishing to volunteer must let me know of your interest. 
Express your interest to me off line at pafidt@rawbw.com.  Please advise if 
you would be for a short term (week or less) or long term (more than a 
week).  Any deployment MUST be with the knowledge of Cherel & myself.
