Register today for the Environmental Emergency Preparedness and Response Webinar Series
Large-scale environmental incidents and emergency events such as fires, floods, dam failures, and oil spills can and do occur in Michigan and have the potential to cause devastating impacts to human health and the environment. However, the damage caused by these disasters can be mitigated with proper preparedness and response. This webinar series is focused on helping business, industry, government, and the spill response community understand the complexities of preparing for and responding to large-scale environmental incidents and will provide an understanding of the various associated roles, responsibilities, regulations, and response technologies. A question-and-answer period will follow each presentation. Recordings of each webinar will be available on the Series webpage.
Upcoming Webinar in the Series
November 20, 1:00 - 2:00 PM
Weather and climate change can drastically impact how we prepare for and respond to environmental emergencies. In this session, Jim Maczko, a Warning Coordination Meteorologist with the National Weather Service, will discuss National Weather Service engagement with emergency management in preparedness/mitigation, response, and recovery, weather versus climate and how changes in climate translate into outcomes that affect people, and National Weather Service flood forecasts- from long-range outlooks to real-time emergency warnings.
