State of Rhode Island: State Police
Temporary substations were quickly established. One was opened on August 17th on Block Island and other in Arnolds Mills on September 18th. These were temporary sites designed as a response to enforcement needs during the first vacation season.

Rhode Island’s Unemployment Rate Inches up Slightly in April
The over-the-month seasonal increases in Construction; Administrative & Waste Services; and Arts, Entertainment & Recreation are typical for this time of year with warmer weather approaching.
