Walla Walla Regional Airport to host full-scale mass casualty exercise

WALLA WALLA – First responders from multiple agencies will be participating in a full-scale mass casualty incident (MCI) exercise tonight (Monday) at 6 p.m. at the Walla Walla Regional Airport.

The exercise will take place on the airport taxiway. The scenario will involve approximately 30 volunteer actors with simulated injuries. The public may observe emergency equipment and vehicles, flashing lights and sirens as part of the exercise.

The exercise will be conducted in compliance with Federal Aviation Administration requirements as the airport maintains an emergency plan which must be tested via a simulated incident every three years.

Observers need to stay away from the MCI exercise scene perimeter and first-responder vehicles.
