00:10:35 Hakima “Pepa”RobinsonRashad : Good evening everyone 00:17:59 Nick - Ohio: For those who aren't familiar with him, I'd highly recommend Dr. Arthur Bradley from EMP Doctor on YouTube for some easy to understand deep dives on how this damage is caused. 00:19:24 Gary Paulis: If our city water system has a backup generator would that typically survive the EMP or would it be damaged also? 00:21:18 Nick - Ohio: Gary - if it isn't protected, then it would be vulnerable to the at least the E1 portion of the event even if not connected to the system. 00:21:19 Andrew Scott: Transformers are custom made. What about SCADA systems? Can you have spare SCADA units as backups 00:22:29 Darv: Can someone please list the name of the document Paul is reading from. 00:23:27 TACDA: Back-up generators would also be affected by EMP and only have a couple of weeks worth of fuel. 00:24:30 Nick - Ohio: Replying to "Can someone please l..." I believe this document http://www.empcommission.org/docs/A2473-EMP_Commission-7MB.pdf 00:24:37 Nick - Ohio: Reacted to "Back-up generators w..." with 👍🏻 00:24:52 TACDA: There is a limited number of SCADA components and other computer control type systems. 00:25:20 Darv: Replying to "Can someone please l..." Outstanding - thanks 00:25:46 Nick - Ohio: Reacted to "Outstanding - thanks" with 👍🏻 00:28:02 TACDA: We will get the name of the document for you either on the TACDA.org website or at the end of the presentation. 00:28:18 Darv: Reacted to "We will get the name..." with 👍 00:35:07 Nick - Ohio: One thing that's important about water treatment - membrane filters must be prevented from freezing (life straw, sawyer, etc). If they freeze it will rupture the membrane and render them ineffective. This is often overlooked. 00:35:37 Nick - Ohio: (once they have been used, forgot to mention) 00:35:49 TACDA: The instructions for water storage and purification are contained in The Journal of Civil Defense at TACDA.org. 00:35:55 Nick - Ohio: Reacted to "The instructions for..." with ❤️ 00:37:04 Andrew Scott: Did Jim ever publish the results of hisfilter testing? 00:38:10 Julie: Can we still pay for Jim'smaterials thru a membership/fee? 00:38:30 Susan: Are there any cities that have a gravity feed water supply without pumps? 00:38:42 TACDA: Jim Phillips materials can be accessed at jimswayworx.com I believe. There is a fee for accessing his website. 00:39:15 Julie: Reacted to Jim Phillips materia... with "👍" 00:39:17 Melissa Oman: Can you provideus with any brands/names of water filters that did well or didnt hold up 00:42:03 Melissa Oman: I have a zero water filter and it does better than my culligan system. Our Village has well water that from my tap unfiltered tests at 350+ PPM and culligan brings it down to around 3. However my Zero water brings it to Zero 00:44:07 Melissa Oman: We have streams by us, however were surrouned by cornfields here in Ne. I worry about pesticide runoff. 00:44:57 Andrew Scott: see https://www.wideners.com/blog/water-filter-tests-for-survival/ 00:45:53 Nick - Ohio: Reacted to "see https://www.wide..." with 👍🏻 00:49:25 TACDA: Bronius Cikotas 00:49:36 Nick - Ohio: I'd be very curious to see more information about that solar system statement. Because as Arthur Bradley has shown, the inverters, charge controllers, etc are extremely at risk from the E1 component. Is there a source for that statement? 00:50:18 GNM’s iPhone (2): Please comment/discuss water stored in hot water heaters and piping in a home, swimming pool/ hot tub. 00:53:03 TACDA: Water stored in water heaters, hot tubs, and swimming pools is definitely better than ditch water. It may be treated with high levels of chlorine or other chemicals that may have to be filtered. 00:54:03 Carol: Hello from central Virginia. Glad I made it here finally. Don't understand the tech but somehow I am here. Taking notes and thanks. 00:54:28 Nick - Ohio: Reacted to "Hello from central V..." with ❤️ 00:55:33 Dwight Henninger: Can use manual well pump 00:58:13 DouglasClark: We use a manual back up pump called Simple Pump. There is a solar powered motor add on accessory 00:59:07 Nick - Ohio: Reacted to "We use a manual back..." with ❤️ 00:59:26 Melissa Oman: Thats if theres anyone still around to work on them. Most folks will be busy managing their own issues at home. 01:00:05 TACDA: There are many alternatives to pump and purify water but you just have to prepare in advance and protect the vulnerable components. 01:00:12 James Collins: The thing I wonder on those multi-decade long timeframes is if they are just assuming manufacturing as is currently, or whether they take into account that the govt would be tossing everything possible into manufacturing. 01:02:17 Nick - Ohio: Reacted to "Thats if theres anyo..." with 👍🏻 01:03:13 Nick - Ohio: Replying to "The thing I wonder o..." That's a good question. I always come back to the idea that those with power will end up building "green zones" and leaving the rest of us to our own devices. 01:04:44 Andrew Scott: Good point; problem might be financial system is not working - how do you pay for materials and people's time? I'll have to think about that - thanks! 01:05:45 Phil Smith KC3FGE: Excellent presentation. Please send a link on filter systems 01:06:40 Nick - Ohio: I pasted the link above if anyone wants it immediately. 01:09:09 Melissa Oman: What do you think about rain water 01:10:02 TACDA: Rainwater is great. Tends to be much cleaner. Still needs filtration and purification. 01:10:54 Webb: "LAY man's" https://www.lehmans.com/search?w=pumps 01:11:00 Nick - Ohio: Reacted to ""LAY man's" https:..." with ❤️ 01:11:17 James Collins: Great if you have rain. You can't assume you'll get it though. Hawaii usually gets a lot of rain, but that city that burned down was in the midst of a drought. 01:11:44 Phil Smith KC3FGE: Rain water is gray water and good for flushing toilets instead of using potable water. 01:12:09 Phil Smith KC3FGE: It can be used for watering gardens also 01:13:23 Carol: It was either a tornado or hurricane but I saw a water tower knocked down . Huge soil erosion from the spill. 01:13:50 Webb: Reacted to "Rain water is gray w..." with 👍 01:14:49 Melissa Oman: Thank you everyone. 01:14:51 Carol: Thank you. Awesome and informative. 01:14:57 Charles Rice: Thank you!! 01:15:00 Juliet H-A: Thanks so much!
