Oscoda Township, a small Michigan community, has been selected by the (F E M A) as a key emergency staging area for northern Michigan, with plans to house 350 semi-trailers of emergency equipment at the local airport.
The F E M A emergency hub, established to serve six counties in the event of an “emergency,” has stirred a mix of interest and concern among Americans.
This announcement was made during a recent Oscoda Township board meeting on October 28, where Supervisor Bill Palmer confirmed the news of F E M A’s selection of Wurtsmith Airport for this controversial initiative.
“The airport was just notified that FEMA has chosen the airport facility as a stationing hub for Emergency Services. They will be bringing in some 350 semi-trailers with equipment to park on the base,” Palmer said.
“If you see a lot of trucks coming into the base, that’s what it is. It’s nothing to get scared about; they’re staging for emergency situations in any of these six counties that F E M A serves,” Palmer added.
