ON-CALL RESPONSE PROGRAM FOR DAMAGED/MISSING WATERWAY MARKERS
Program Summary
The FWC operates an on-call response program to
coordinate the timely examination, evaluation and appropriate repair of
FWC assets that represent a potential hazard to navigation. This type of
response system provides an efficient notification process for directing
personnel to evaluate issues and take appropriate action. In some cases,
this may involve passing on reports of non-FWC related waterway problems
to another responsible entity such as the United States Coast Guard.
