Interoperable Communications in Oregon
2011 SCIP Update
Review the 2011 SCIP Goals & Objectives DRAFT document.

What is the SCIP?
The Oregon Statewide Communications Interoperability Plan (SCIP) serves as the reference and roadmap for stakeholders regarding public safety wireless voice and data interoperability in our state. It is a living document, and as such, reflects past progress, the timeliness of our strategic goals and initiatives, and projects future issues and needs critical to the delivery of public safety services. The document was originally adopted on November 28, 2003.
