Jamestown (CSi) – On Monday August 15, about 6-p.m., at Jamestown Regional Airport, a full-scale exercise took place, that simulates an event with mass casualties that helps different agencies in emergency services work together. It also makes improvements on communicating with each other if the event would occur.

The triennial exercise is required for the airport to meet certain stands and obligations, and certifies the airport under the Federal Aviation Administration to have commercial aircraft.

Motorists may see emergency personnel in the area of the airport and should take alternate routes if possible.
