  The State and Local Emergency Management Data Users Group BBS  is  run
by the State and  Local  Programs  and  Support Directorate (SLPS)
within the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), an independent

the interchange  of  ideas between parties interested in federal, state
and local emergency management.

The  SALEMDUG  BBS  is  open  to  the general public and we encourage
the full participation of anyone who is interested in this subject
matter.  This board operates 24 hours/day and supports 1200-9600 baud.

The State and Local Emergency Management Data Users Group (SALEMDUG) is
an association of State, local, and FEMA emergency management personnel
who share an interest in fostering the use of computers to support
emergency management programs and activities.  The purpose of the
organization is to promote the exchange of information, to encourage
standardization throughout the emergency management community, and to
work together to facilitate the application of computer technology to
emergency management problems and the transfer of automated data
processing information among all levels of government.

The membership of SALEMDUG includes 31 States, several local civil
defense organizations, FEMA Headquarters and all FEMA regions.  Six
standing committees have been established and an annual meeting is
conducted to inform members of new technology, provide a forum for
discussion, and provide the opportunity for sharing ideas and software
applications.

FEMA has fostered and supported SALEMDUG, now in its fourth year of
operation. This bulletin board has been established by FEMA to support
the group. The SALEMDUG BBS provides a means of communication between
its geographically dispersed members, shares information through
bulletins and messages, and offers a means of exchanging public domain
software and shareware programs.

The SALEMDUG BBS is open to anyone, including members of the general
public, who are affiliated with or have an expressed interest in the
area of Emergency Management.  FEMA hopes that this rather unique means
of communication will prove beneficial to you in this important arena.

The System Operators of this board (SYSOP) are Rod Renner (202-646-3528)
and Chip Hines (202-646-3115).  Any suggestions are welcomed and may be
left by leaving a message to the SYSOP.

If you are interested in establishing a conference (a separate place on
the bulletin board for people to discuss a particular special interest),
please let the SYSOP know.
