Funny River Road is Still Closed
by Brenda Ahlberg
At this time the Funny River Road is still CLOSED until further notice. When AKIMT and AK State Troopers determine that it is safe for residents to return to their homes, OEM will deploy a Rapid Notify message, work with local media and post on the websites to let folks know.
NOTE: OEM is working with the Rapid Notify technical support team and local phone providers to fix the problem. We understand that messaging was not reaching some phone numbers and that there was “overlapping” that included numbers just outside the “triangulated” areas that were designated to receive calls.
REMINDER: PIO Kris Eriksen will be at the Red Cross Shelter at Redoubt Elementary at roughly 10:00 am to provide evacuees with an update on the fire and a status on the evacuation. The time is approximate as we want to be able to provide maps. Redoubt shelter number #317-4518, 486 W. Redoubt Ave.
OEM Hotline for current fire-related information, please call 907-714-2495.
Duplicate emails are possible; please forward as appropriate. This message has been emailed to KPB Admin, KPB AHIMT, KPB Assembly, KPB Depts, KPB SAs, KPBSD, Borough-wide First Responders, Cities, Tribal Entities, State Depts/Legislators, U.S. Congressional Delegates, Media, Nonprofits.
