+
* '''Gray RCC closed''' 2018.06
*Regional PD Nets were established to improve communications between local and county departments and the State Police. They presently see limited use and some are apparently inactive. Most inter-agency traffic is on Statewide Car to Car (154.6950 MHz)

*CONOPS (Concept of Operations) Interoperability channels introduced in 2006 to meet federal requirements for large incident communications. May be assigned by State Police when needed. State has encouraged all local agencies to adopt their use, however it is unclear how many have done so beyond those already in service (State Fire; Statewide Car to Car)
