Can you be more specific? What OES resources are prepositions? Where are they prepositioned? I’m assuming in Northern California??

#4

Lots of nor cal preposition requests approved under the current red flag conditions. At time of request, logistical support ($$) can be requested and if approved, funding is provided. It’s been a mixed bag, if resources are provided from within the op area or if they come from outside the op area the logistical needs are different.

Here is the link to CAL OES book on preepos.
