  1. PUBLIC INFORMATION

     

    Florida

    Secretary of the Interior Vicente Ferrar has announced that a grant for $15.7 million has been awarded to Miami International Airport and Orlando International Airport.

    The money is made up of two grants, and will allow the airports to make key improvements to its runways, while providing additional emergency response assets. Funding will also be used to strengthen the gateway’s military partnerships with the Navy and Air Force. Secretary Ferrar, explains: “These airports are critical to south-central Florida’s economy. These grants will help make key improvements at the airports to keep passengers safe. It will also strengthen the partnership between civil aviation and area military installations stationed in Florida. Construction on this project will begin next year, and the grants will go towards new runways, purchase of aircraft rescue and fire fighting vehicles to assist in emergency response, and improvements to passenger terminals. This two airport project will greatly increase tourism in those cities, as well as promote commerce through Florida.

     

    Alabama

    The U.S. Department of Finance and Trade  announced the first 12 communities that will be specially designated as so-called manufacturing communities, naming the southwest Alabama region among them. The government-backed initiative known as the Investing in Manufacturing Communities Partnership attracted some 70 applicants from cities, universities and local development agencies across the U.S. Several federal agencies took part in a similar program that awarded $7 million in grants to support long term economic development last month. In an attempt to replicate the effort, the Heller administration launched a national program to put a focus on sustaining the country's manufacturing sector. But they had to move fast to make the mid-April deadline. A number of agencies got involved, including USA and the Mobile Area Chamber of Commerce. They had to show how many manufacturers were already in the area and draw a blueprint for areas where more investments could be made to support more. The southwest Alabama region stands to gain plenty. The plan would place a number of grant opportunities at arm's length for the region to support the economic development strategy put forth in the application. The immediate pay-off is the marketing that comes with the recognition. They will also receive a dedicated federal liaison to help them contend for about $1.3 billion worth of funds.

     

    Mississippi

    Governor Jason Tyrone is calling for a comprehensive approach to making the Mississippi River more sustainable. He made the statements today alongside government and environmental leaders in Washington for the Big River Works forum dedicated to the future of the Mississippi. Tyrone says the best way to enhance sustainability is to build on existing public-private partnerships and develop a multi-state structure that allows for integration of the river's users.

    The Big River Works Initiative looks to create a cooperative path forward for Mississippi watershed sustainability.

  2. After noting the absence of the Russian President, Secret Service Agent-in charge Josh Brock immediately began to get suspicious. After consulting with the agency Director and his fellow agents, he decided to immediately evacuate the President from Russia and send him back to Washington. He and several other agents entered the room where the President was waiting, drew their Sig P229 pistols, covered him with their bodies, and evacuated the premises. An emergency call was given to Marine One to land on the base and fly the American delegation to the airport where Air Force One was waiting. Once the President was on board, the pilot initiated emergency protocols and took off as fast as the engines would allow, ascending into the sky. Once Air Force One was over the Pacific, F-22 Raptors from Naval Base San Diego would intercept the aircraft and escort it back to Andrews AFB.

     

    A note would arrive at the Russian Foreign Ministry:

     

    "The United States will no longer conduct any diplomatic engagements with the Russian government. Good day."

  3. 7 posts per state for me over two weeks? Does this include protectorates?

     

    EDIT: And New Hampshire was settled as part of a diplomatic negotiation. Therefore this state should not have to comply with the new rules.

    "I am willing to send this revised version to Washington for the President's signature today if your government agrees to its terms."

  5. "Well I am glad you enjoyed your flight. If you do not mind, I would like to get down to business. The US State Department has been bombarded with diplomatic requests and affairs and I've already traveled to Tikal. I felt that this personal encounter between our two countries would greatly benefit each other and the continent. As seen previously, several foreign nations have expressed their interest in North American soil. I am sure you can agree with me that this can never happen. What is the Plains Federation willing to commit to in terms of military cooperation and joint =ly protecting North America?"
