EMS
Continued from Page 1
their units are at any given time
because they are not on a com
puter dispatch program,”
Humphreys said.
The Bryan and College Sta
tion computer systems are capa
ble of tracking their emergency
vehicles around town.
Scott agreed that this could be a
potential setback in negotiations
for University EMS involvement.
“We are not fully automated
like the city is,” he said.
A mutual aid agreement,
which is different than an auto
matic mutual aid agreement,
has existed for several years
between the four agencies oper
ating ambulances in Bryan-Col-
lege Station. Texas Emergency
Medical Services and Universi
ty Emergency Medical Services
participate in the mutual aid
program.
Within this program, if one of
Bryan and College Station’s four
ambulances is unavailable dur
ing an emergency, the call goes
to Texas EMS and then to Uni
versity EMS.
Humphreys said operations
will continue in this order.
Ervin Cox, vice president of
Texas EMS, said it makes sense
for his service to be considered as
only emergency backup for the
more advanced city departments.
“We don’t have the same level
of training,” he said. “We are pri
marily a transfer service. We
rarely run 911 calls.”
Cox said that University
EMS probably cannot provide
the fastest possible response
time because it is run by stu
dent volunteers.
Volunteers can take between
10 to 40 minutes to respond to
a call, Cox said, but a profes
sional is out the door in less
than a minute.
However, Scott said Universi
ty EMS student volunteers pro
vide services of the same quality
as the city.
“Our experience level might
be different, but the level of
training is the same,” he said.
“The fact that we are volunteers
doesn’t affect how fast we get to
the ambulance.”

region,” Dugas said.
“It may provide an alternative to some things
they are planning to do like restricting water sup
plies and interbasin transfers (transferring water
supply from one basin to another).”
Dr. Ronald Griffin, an A&M professor of agricul
tural economics, received a $39,000 grant to re
search the value and management of water supplies.
Griffin’s team is studying Texas communities
undergoing drought conditions and investigating
how people value a reliable water supply.
“The motivation behind the project is that wa
ter is increasingly getting scarce,” he said. “In the
future, it will not be possible to supply all the wa
ter that is needed.”
The third project, which was awarded a $50,000
grant, will study how water is managed in the Ed
ward’s Plateau region during a drought year and
brainstorm ways to manage the water efficiently.
The primary investigator is Dr. Bruce McCarl,
an A&M agricultural economics professor, who
said water management is an important problem
facing the Texas citizens.
“It is good to see the Texas Water Development
Board getting involved with the problems,” he
said. “They have been able to tap some pretty
knowledgeable people and as a result, some good
work will be done.”
