Is this true? If yes, the topic deserves its own thread.
When I visited the new MP facility this past Spring, I specifically asked if they were dispatching or had plans to dispatch out of the Glendale site and was told "NO" State Police Concord now is in control. I then asked about VHF monitoring and although a few of the Patrol boats have VHF's the Glendale cite was not equipped.

Getting a patrol boat is "hit or miss" for when they are underway at any speed they (as it is not their prime radio) never hear a call to them.
