Meeting set for Jan 27th

Arnold & Arnold, Adjusters for Aramark, has announced a joint inspection meeting on Jan 27th, at 9:00 AM at Halls Crossing. Noonan posted on this blog today that he spoke with Bill Arnold who said the meeting won't start until 10:00 AM, allowing time for those to take the ferry across from Bullfrog.

According to the notice, the purpose of the joint inspection is to allow houseboat owners, "your representatives, and any experts (such as fire cause and origin experts) to inspect the site and the vessels damaged in the fire, which are currently stored on NPS property. We strongly urge you take advantage of this inspection, as we have no control over what the individual boat owners do with their vessels once the site is released by the authorities."

Further more the notice says "...please be reminded that you as the boat owner are responsible for your vessel, regardless of its current condition (some are only partially damaged, some are total losses). Several vessels remain in a sunken condition. Others are stored on NPS land. It is your repsonibility to make arrangements for your vessel, if necessary, to be refloated and/or removed from the site and stored and preserved as evidence in an unaltered condition so as to be available for inspection at a later time. Please also be advised that there may be legal consequences for the failure to preserve your vessel in its current state."
