WEBVTT

00:06.340 --> 00:08.730
we don't accept like live animals and

00:08.740 --> 00:10.962
things of that nature . But pretty much

00:10.962 --> 00:13.073
if it can be used or it has been used

00:13.073 --> 00:15.220
by military agency , it will be put

00:15.230 --> 00:17.341
back into the system . And really you

00:17.341 --> 00:19.397
allowed us here we are at fort Bragg

00:19.397 --> 00:21.230
north Carolina daily disposition

00:21.230 --> 00:23.341
services facility . We are one of the

00:23.341 --> 00:25.397
major subordinate commands under the

00:25.397 --> 00:27.830
Defense Logistics Agency . We provide

00:27.840 --> 00:30.007
right reverse logistics support , also

00:30.007 --> 00:31.840
known as disposal support to war

00:31.840 --> 00:34.062
fighters and our other customers . What

00:34.062 --> 00:35.896
we also have operations in south

00:35.896 --> 00:37.990
Carolina at Fort Jackson and a joint

00:37.990 --> 00:40.157
base charleston R . T . D . Stands for

00:40.157 --> 00:42.400
realization transfer and donation of

00:42.410 --> 00:44.780
excess military property . What we do

00:44.780 --> 00:47.250
is we take it and see what is able to

00:47.260 --> 00:49.440
be put back on the shelf and issued to

00:49.450 --> 00:51.610
other agencies . We have a wide range

00:51.610 --> 00:53.721
of property , um , whether it's white

00:53.721 --> 00:55.554
goods , refrigerators , ranges ,

00:55.554 --> 00:57.443
heaters , whether it's vehicles ,

00:57.443 --> 00:59.450
rolling stock , LM TVs Humvees ,

00:59.460 --> 01:01.627
whether it's office supplies , whether

01:01.627 --> 01:04.630
it's clothing , we have it here . A big

01:04.640 --> 01:06.807
ticket item . He has generators , that

01:06.807 --> 01:09.000
people were used , you know , to power

01:09.000 --> 01:11.160
of doing like storms . The items and

01:11.160 --> 01:13.216
everything that we distribute to the

01:13.216 --> 01:15.271
customers are free of charge when we

01:15.271 --> 01:17.380
allocate them to the customers . And

01:17.380 --> 01:19.491
that includes transportation costs as

01:19.491 --> 01:21.547
well . I'm with the Northland Forest

01:21.547 --> 01:24.010
Service and our agency is state

01:24.020 --> 01:26.410
mandated by statute to protect the

01:26.420 --> 01:28.550
forest from forest fires and respond

01:28.550 --> 01:30.820
all forest fires . We primarily screen

01:30.820 --> 01:33.740
items for our agency and also as a pass

01:33.740 --> 01:35.907
through for firefighters and volunteer

01:35.907 --> 01:38.018
fire departments were looking for all

01:38.018 --> 01:40.184
types of property whatever it takes to

01:40.184 --> 01:42.407
keep the agency and the fire department

01:42.407 --> 01:44.573
equipment up and running . The biggest

01:44.573 --> 01:46.407
thing that I always tell the new

01:46.407 --> 01:48.730
customers is If once they learn to

01:48.730 --> 01:50.786
programme , I just want them to know

01:50.786 --> 01:52.952
that it's it's easy and effective once

01:52.952 --> 01:54.990
you learn it and you can benefit

01:55.000 --> 01:57.111
greatly from it . And I believe we've

01:57.111 --> 01:59.222
got about $84 million dollar property

01:59.222 --> 02:01.333
through that program . And we've been

02:01.333 --> 02:03.690
in the firefighter property through RTD

02:03.700 --> 02:07.240
since 2000 and seven . Being able to

02:07.240 --> 02:09.351
put things back into the system where

02:09.351 --> 02:11.573
you don't spend more money on something

02:11.573 --> 02:13.740
and you can continue to use it and get

02:13.740 --> 02:15.851
a cost savings of it . We all benefit

02:15.851 --> 02:17.980
from it as us citizens due to budget

02:17.980 --> 02:20.036
constraints of the state agency . We

02:20.036 --> 02:22.369
don't have a large budget without D . L .

02:22.369 --> 02:24.202
A . Access to this equipment Are

02:24.202 --> 02:26.202
responsibly greatly diminished . We

02:26.202 --> 02:28.610
have 35 trucks tractors that pull our

02:28.610 --> 02:30.721
initial attack dozers . There will be

02:30.721 --> 02:32.777
gone for cliffs and we use in day to

02:32.777 --> 02:34.610
day operations and also emergent

02:34.610 --> 02:36.721
response . Those would be gone states

02:36.721 --> 02:38.943
only purchased one forklift that I know

02:38.943 --> 02:40.943
of in its history . It would make a

02:40.943 --> 02:43.110
tremendous dent in our agency . It's a

02:43.110 --> 02:45.221
great , great , great program and I'd

02:45.221 --> 02:46.777
like to see go on forever .
