Outstanding

On Sept 19, Ken Marshal contacted CanOps on the status MASAS and inquired on opportunities there might be to consume and publish incident data for TC.

•  See if there has been a response

On Sept 20, Jon Bailey contacted our technical contact and noted that the ESRI services hadn’t seen an update since January. They are looking into it.

•  Update when there is a response. (replied, still investigating)
•  ESRI service is working again
