Division monthly reports to the commission, legislatively required monthly insurance warnings reporting to Driver Control AASIS reporting of Aircraft fuel usage if purchased outside of normal channels, attendance at Command Staff Review Board Hearings, and other duties too numerous to mention due to lack of space.
