COLD LAKE - An emergency response exercise is being planned for Nov. 18 over the course of a full day, which will include an on-base explosive ordinance disposal emergency situation, according to information from 4 Wing Cold Lake.
The exercise will take place within the Bark Park and Archery Range at 4 Wing, and will require areas to be cordoned off.
