 DENVER-

More than 60 National Guards troops, first responders and

emergency management officials from across the state spent  four days

practicing rescuing survivors in various lake conditions.

UH-60 Blackhawk helicopters were used to rescue two politicians from the waters of Lake Norman.

State Sen. Chris Carney, R-Iredell, and State Rep. Jason Saine, R-Lincoln, were the victims in the training exercise by the N.C. Division of Emergency Management's Helicopter and Aquatic Rescue Team.

 

 

The North Carolina Helicopter and Aquatic Rescue Team

(NCHART) program combines the expertise of local rescue technicians with

the training, maintenance and capabilities of the N.C. National Guard and

N.C. Highway Patrol Aviation Units.

 

Twenty-eight highly trained technicians are positioned throughout the

state; they work routinely as first responders or emergency medical

technicians with local fire or EMS teams. To qualify for the HART team,

rescue technicians have to first be trained in swift water rescue. They

then must pass a stringent physical fitness test and 80-hour course that

teaches them how to rescue the injured from the ground and place them in

aircraft.

 

The NCHART program became the first of its kind in the nation to implement

a regimented training and response program that combines the best civilian

rescuers with military aviation assets. HART teams were used extensively

following hurricanes Frances and Ivan in 2004 to rescue an estimated 350

residents from fast moving water and areas isolated when landslides cut off

roads and escape routes. Since then, the teams also have rescued numerous

stranded or injured hikers from remote mountainous regions.

*Participating agencies*: N.C. Emergency Management; N.C. National Guard;

Lincoln County Emergency Management; Lincoln County Sheriff's Office; Fire

Departments from Denver, East Lincoln, Sherrills Ford-Terrell, Mooresville,

South Fork, Union, Asheville and Charlotte; Lincoln County EMS; Lincoln

County Water Rescue Team; N.C. Wildlife; US Coast Guard Auxillary; Gaston

EMS; Lincoln and Cleveland county Local Incident Management Teams; and

North Carolina All-Hazards Incident Management Team.
