Secondary missions include aerial support for Aids to Navigation, Maritime law enforcement, and Marine Environmental Protection along 250 miles of rugged coastline from the Mendocino—Sonoma County line north to the California—Oregon border. The Command Center is located at CGAS Humboldt Bay monitors for distress 24 hours a day and directs Coast Guard boats and aircraft to respond to any maritime emergency in the region; along the coast, well offshore, or even inland. The Group / Air Station also works with many local, state and federal agencies as needed. The above information was copied from wikipedia.org/
