ERRI Announces 24 Hour Y2K Watch Desk
By Tom Lorinczi, EmergencyNet News Technical Services Director
In an effort to monitor and report in real time all consequential events that take place during the transition to the year 2000, the Emergency Response & Research Institute (ERRI) has announced that it will make a "Y2K Watch Desk" available on-line on its popular emergency service/national security website.
According to Clark Staten, ERRI Executive Director, the concept was first announced at the Association of Public Communications Officers (APCO) Y2K Readiness Symposium, held at the Galvin Center/Motorola Center, in Schaumburg, Illinois, on May 21, 1999. During that meeting of government officials from all over the country, Staten announced that ERRI, in association with EmergencyNet News correspondents throughout the world, would be monitoring and reporting in real-time on all important or emerging events during the period of December 31, 1999 to January 1, 2000.
