SAN FRANCISCO — Coast Guard Air Station San Francisco is scheduled to host multiple state and local response agency aircrews and personnel, Thursday, for their annual Interagency Day.

Interagency Day is an interactive exchange that allows Bay Area first responders to share best practices, develop life-saving skills and foster partnerships.​ When an emergency occurs, agencies must work together to share information and resources to ensure the safety and security of millions of people throughout the Bay Area.

Participants are scheduled to display rescue equipment and vehicles, including multiple helicopters used by their respective agencies. Other scheduled events include helicopter hoist demonstrations, classroom scenarios and case study discussions.
