and Installs HTML Plans
| Reno,

HTML preplans were
designed to provide school police
and authorized first responders
with a virtual tour of each of
our 94 schools and bus yards," explained
Chris Smith, Director of Emergency
Preparedness for the WCSD. |
| |
| "During
the next year. we also plan to
use the HTML preplans and and
other critical data for exercises
