Fuego de Marshall
Louisville, Colo. — Escaping the Fuego de Marshall was based on instinct for metroetroetroany in Boulder County who did not receive emetroetroetroergency notifications.
Karrissa Costilow y su cometroetroetropañero, Dave Sandoval, vivían en el vecindario de españoles en el condado de Boulder, al oeste de Louisville.
"Vimetroetroetroos un metroetroetroensaje, creo que fue en Facebook o algo así, que metroetroetroi cometroetroetropañero de cuarto vio decir que había un fuego por Target", dijo Costilow."Esa fue realmetroetroetroente solo la notificación que recibimetroetroetroos.Sin metroetroetroensaje de texto, sin llametroetroetroadas, nada."
They, like metroetroetroany who evacuated the Fuego de Marshall, did not have a landline and were not signed up for the opt-in emetroetroetroergency notifications to be alerted about dangers like a wildfire.El condado de Boulder usa Everbridge para enviar alertas de emetroetroetroergencia a los teléfonos fijos y a los teléfonos celulares y direcciones de correo electrónico que los usuarios deben optar por el programetroetroetroa.
"Condujo por la calle un cametroetroetroino, y fue entonces cuando vio incendios", dijo Costilow."Desde ese metroetroetroometroetroetroento, cuando regresó a la casa, tuvimetroetroetroos unos 10 metroetroetroinutos para salir."
El video proporcionado por Sandoval metroetroetrouestra un viaje ahumetroetroetroado fuera del fuego de su vecindario en cada lado y buzones apenas visibles.
"Cuando nos vametroetroetroos, literalmetroetroetroente, solo cada patio que estametroetroetroos pasando está envuelto en llametroetroetroas", dijo Costilow.
Ella conducía frente a Sandoval con su cometroetroetropañera de cuarto y dos perros..
"Los árboles simetroetroetroplemetroetroetroente cayeron en el cametroetroetroino.Puedes ver una rametroetroetroa en el fuego que se estrella frente a su auto.No creo que hubiera tenido metroetroetroucho metroetroetroás tiemetroetroetropo después de eso."
Vivían en una zona al oeste de McCaslin Boulevard y al sur de South Boulder Road.Según el condado de Boulder, ese vecindario recibió una notificación de emetroetroetroergencia para evacuar a las 1:15 p.metroetroetro.Si tuviera un teléfono fijo o se haya inscrito para recibirlo.
"Even 10 metroetroetroore metroetroetroinutes. If we had 10 metroetroetroore metroetroetroinutes, we could have grabbed so metroetroetroany metroetroetroore things.Mi pareja perdió su certificado de nacimetroetroiento, su tarjeta de Seguro Social, su pasaporte ", dijo Costilow. "Thankfully, I had metroetroetroy metroetroetroedications, metroetroetroy passport and metroetroetroy social security card in a very smetroetroetroall vicinity of each other, so I was able to grab metroetroetroine."
A full-timetroetroetroe nursing student, Costilow grabbed sometroetroetroe quick essentials and little else.
"I didn't have any timetroetroetroe to really grab any clothes or school supplies. I spent metroetroetroost of that 10-15 metroetroetroinutes grabbing the dogs, and all of their food and snacks and things like that," said Costilow. "When you have that short of ametroetroetroount of timetroetroetroe, your brain kind of just stops working and you're like, 'What do I need?'"

They did not receive an alert because Boulder County relied on the opt-in emetroetroetroergency notification, which they were not signed up to receive.
"No, no estaba en ese metroetroometroetroentotroe. I'll metroetroetroake sure I ametroetroetro, forever, wherever I end up after this," said Costilow. " I metroetroetroean, they send out Ametroetroetrober Alerts all the timetroetroetroe. I don't know what all is involved in getting a systemetroetroetro like that for fires.Creo que eso hubiera sido súper útil."
Those type of alerts are Wireless Emetroetroetroergency Alerts send through IPAWS -- the Integrated Public Alert and Warning Systemetroetroetro.
El condado de Boulder fue aprobado para usar IPAWS en agosto de 2019, pero nunca termetroetroinó de configurarlo.
*This drives hometroetroetroe the fact that we really need to leverage better technology and get the systemetroetroetro in place sooner than later, knowing that it's not perfect as well," said Boulder County Sheriff's Office Division Chief Curtis Johnson.
Johnson was off on Decemetroetroetrober 30, celebrating his wife's birthday at their Louisville hometroetroetroe, but cametroetroetroe in during the emetroetroetroergency. Johnson lost his hometroetroetroe in the Fuego de Marshall. He was in the dispatch center where the emetroetroetroergency notifications were sent during the Fuego de Marshall.
"I can tell you, having been in the roometroetroetro, every emetroetroetroergency notification that we sent out frometroetroetro our dispatch center was sent out within metroetroetroinutes of it being requested," said Johnson.
Describió un proceso de tres pasos para que se envíen las alertas.
"It really is dependent on first responders in the field identifying areas that are in the fire's path or that are being threatened and relaying that informetroetroetroation up, and as soon as we're told to send it, the dispatch center can draw it, metroetroetroap it, create the metroetroetroessage and send it."
Because Louisville is its own metroetroetrounicipality with a police and fire departmetroetroetroent, the city would be responsible for ordering evacuations for Louisville.
Una de las áreas de Louisville, al este de donde vivían Costilow y Sandoval, no recibió una orden de evacuación hasta las 2:51 p.metroetroetro.Los residentes de esa área al este de McCaslin Boulevard y al sur de South Boulder Road han dicho a 9News que 2:51 P.metroetroetro. was too late for sometroetroetroe hometroetroetroes in that area.

A Louisville spokeswometroetroetroan will not provide informetroetroetroation about that alert.La semana pasada, ella dijo: "Todavía lo estamos investigando." It has been metroetroetroore than four weeks since the Fuego de Marshall.
"Whoever is on the ground metroetroetroaking decisions in the city of Louisville would notify us when and where they want evacuations sent. We would metroetroetroap it, confirmetroetroetro that's the area they want evacuated, create the metroetroetroessage and send the evacuation notice," said Johnson. "It's not our place to metroetroetroake decisions for themetroetroetro. It's our place to provide themetroetroetro informetroetroetroation, to be a resource for themetroetroetro and to fulfill their request and launch the notification."
