ANNAPOLIS, MD (April 6, 2011) – Governor Martin O’Malley will offer introductory remarks before approximately 700 attendees of the National Fire Sprinkler Association’s seminar and exhibition in Baltimore tomorrow, an annual event attended by fire fighters and manufacturers of fire safety equipment. Governor O’Malley will also present the Technical Service Award.
Governor O’Malley has championed initiatives to support fire fighters and first responders, most notably the establishment of a statewide interoperability communication system. The O’Malley-Brown Administration has formalized leadership structures and consolidated initiatives and resources into unified efforts to build a statewide radio system, computer-aided dispatch/records management system, and geographic information system platform for first responders. These backbone systems will replace non-interoperable, obsolete or non-existent technologies currently being used by State public safety agencies and will provide a statewide infrastructure for local governments.
