>> Dear Eric,
>>
>> Please meet Mrs. Andrea Trunz, she is the Managing Director of Trunz Water Systems. http://www.trunzwatersystems.com/water-treatment/products/ <http://www.trunzwatersystems.com/water-treatment/products/>
>> They are a specialized equipment manufacturer for solar powered drinking water purification systems. They have a large portfolio ranging from Fresh Water to Brackish to Seawater Treatment. I quickly talked with them, they do not have too many units left on stock, but there might be some systems which are available for deployment quickly.
>>
>> I suggest, that you continue the discussion with her directly in order to specify your needs and conditions.

>> Albert, Jeff, and colleagues,
>>
>> On Friday, 9/29, I will arrive in the Caribbean. I have set up Prime Minister Rettig’s mobile Emergency Operations Center on a privately-owned, former USCG cutter - Island cutter. Thank you Mark, Eric, and Locky for your help on this front. She is a fast ship, capable of outrunning hurricane conditions and weathering substantial seas, if necessary.
>>
>> Over the next two weeks, we will be doing mission critical function assessments and setting up Caribbean Resilience System Emergency Management Hubs. We will need more planes and helicopters and resilience teams capable of operating semi-autonomously under a chain of command and unified communication system in austere and potentially dangerous conditions. We will be talking about the needs of these teams during tomorrow’s 9/28 Caribbean Resilience System’s (CRS) meetings.
>>
>> If FEMA and the US military block the first CRS shipments to Puerto Rico in a long cue, please let me know ASAP. We might do more good re-directing at least a portion of the aid resources to other islands. Forward positioning the aid at this time may make sense. We have to get goods moving to far forward positions in the Caribbean.
>>
>> I want to talk with you in the Caribbean Resilience System Executive Committee meeting this evening about food, emergency housing, solar refrigeration, and other vital goods shipments. Can you report on warehouse and shipping issues at 6 PM?
>>
>> As far as I can tell from current G2, we have millions of people in many hundreds of communities now in severity level 4, 5, and 6 conditions off the southern shores of the United States in the midst of one of our planet’s largest climate change events, perhaps since the Krakatou vulcano eruption in the late 1800s. This is not ignoring the suffering many are enduring now in Southern Texas, and Florida. Some hurricane survivors will need to be evacuated in the Caribbean to survive the high-level social crises they will find themselves in.
>>
>> I expect the death toll to go up over the next two weeks, unless we see a significant change in global leadership very quickly. That seems to be a very low probability. We may be about to see one of the largest climate change migrations in the Western hemisphere in known history. If someone has other facts to contribute on this account, please chime in, especially with evidence-based counter-points.
>>
>> If you know of strategic thinkers, emergency operations personnel, resilience special operations experts that can operate semi-autonomously in a unified coordination and communication system, please bring them to my attention.

>> Alina,
>> Thank you for putting together the SitRep. We will be advancing this through our network in an attempt to get them supplies. We have identified flights for personnel and are also working to confirm flights for cargo. That said, we are moving most of our aid via vessels and containers. I will try to drive this information up the chain so that it reaches the relevant folks in FEMA and the Governor's office. Regardless, we will put forth our own efforts to try to support getting aid out to this network. Thank you again for the situational report and we will be following up with you and the office of Marco Rubio in the coming days.
