The statement also said that the IPS has over the past year-and-a-half carried out a wide range of changes to improve their operational readiness, including the formation of regional command centers, updating command protocol, training for dealing with fires, and improving communications equipment. They have also launched a foundation to support families of those who fell in the Carmel fire, according to the press release.
