Marine Drive, Portland, is the first of its kind in the Pacific Northwest. According to Jerry Williams, Center Director, "Work ing under the same roof allows us to do a better job of coordinating rather than competing for resour ces among our agencies. It means that we can handle the crisis at hand while maintaining the best options for meeting the challenges to come." The key to the success of the Center is the "closest forces" con cept, which translates into provid ing resources, total mobility, situa tion monitoring, need projections and information flow in an effi cient, cost-effective manner. This concept is jointly supported by the states of Oregon and Washington and the following five federal agencies: BLM, Forest Service, BIA, National Park Service and the Fish and Wildlife Service. In the past, emergency support re sources such as equipment and personnel, were often traded among agencies, and the big picture was not visible from any one place. The Center is funded by the BLM. Forest Service and BIA. It will be staffed year-round by em ployees of these agencies, with round-the-clock coverage during fire season.

The truck then crossed Tenino street. Jumping a curb and hitting a mcdium-sie rock slowed the truck enough so that King, running at full speed, could jump aboard and apply the brakes.
