Attached find two maps of a location where we are
reviewing the feasibility of placing a Helipad, near the
head of Lake Concow. Contemplated uses are quasi -public,
fire control and medical ambulance service. (Enloe Hospital
will inaugurate service in August, 1985.)
The nearby pond and lake are of interest to CDF for
fire suppression, and they have had their fire fighters camp
in our meadows in the past. Enloe Hospital estimates 5 -minute
liftoff and 10 minutes flying time for ambulance service,
with advanced life-support equipment, 24-hour staffing with
pilots, mobile intensive -care nurse and mobile -intensive -care
paramedic. `(As you can see by the map, service will be even
faster from -Paradise Hospital if they ever get similar equip-
ments, as they are.only four airline miles away.)
Betty Kirchner and'Dave Hironymous have suggested we get
your approval before proceeding with the Use Permit process.
Will you please advise us as to the acceptability of this site
from your standpoint. There is no school within 1000 feet,nor
are.there any obstructions that would be hazardous.
We might want to use a temporary site first (#1) as shown,
simply because a well and power are available here and we
would just put in a pop-up Rainbird and keep a level, circular
plot well marked, mowed and maintained, moving to Final Site
(#2) at.a later date.
truly yours,
