1) Cover letter from Mike Lohrey, Incident Commander

Issues, Discussion, and Recommendations

• Issue: Should the annual Rainbow Family gathering be managed as a recreation event with a law enforcement presence, or as a law enforcement event with a resource presence?
  
  
• Issue: The organization necessary for managing future Rainbow Family Gatherings should be determined once the Washington Office determines whether the event is to be managed as a recreational event or law enforcement event.
  
  
• Issue: Our requirements for a signed Special Use Permit create an air of confrontation and anxiety, has little to do with the success, or lack thereof, of gathering management, and costs far more in litigation than it is capable of accomplishing on the ground.
  
  
• Issue: Notification of State Agencies (or lack thereof)
  
  
• Issue: Communications
  
  
• Issue: Funding for management of the 1997 Rainbow Family Gathering was inadequate. This contributed to the inability to appropriately charge as worked during this event.
