Yatsu said, however, the ministry will first conduct research for up to two years to assess what impact the opening of the gates would have on the sea before opening them.''''We cannot open the gates immediately because the panel has recommended that we conduct research while keeping the gates closed,'''' Yatsu said.But the opening of the gates ''''will become necessary during the two-year period during which we will conduct research on the Ariake Sea,'''' he said.When the gates can be opened ''''remains unknown because the timing depends on the findings of the research,'''' he said.The panel, headed by University of Tokyo professor emeritus Makoto Shimizu, has been looking into the cause of this season''s poor seaweed crop in the inland sea in Nagasaki Prefecture.

The antennae need to be appropriately positioned to complete the triangulation, and the best readings aren''t from where fire engines typically are parked at the scene.System evaluation is expected to continue to the next phase. Although high-rise capability adds a significant level of complexity, Orange County has nailed many of the X - Y single-story issues to make the system useful for fires at strip malls, as well as most homes and standalone stores."We''ve done the actual hands-on stuff, now we need to do the data analysis and make some decisions," says Godfrey. "If we feel like this is worth pursuing, features such as high-rise operation and antenna placement are issues on the agenda to deal with."

Before GPS was installed, the station responding to a call would get a grid number and a street address from dispatch. Then the captain would flip through pages in the city map book searching for the location. Under the new system, the manual components of finding an incident address are eliminated.Euless, Texas, a city of 44,000 midway between Dallas and Fort Worth, uses GPS to generate precise maps for locating fire hydrants within the city limits. Hydrant maintenance, a chore generally performed by the fire department, requires firefighters to periodically check the condition of every hydrant in the city. Sometimes they trim weeds, grease caps or exercise valves.
