How to Develop an Emergency Response Plan Webinar

Posted By Administration, Wednesday, April 8, 2020
Plan now to attend WaterISAC’s three-part webinar series titled How to Develop an Emergency Response Plan on Wednesday, April 29, 2020, 1:00-2:00 pm CST.
In the three webinars, WaterISAC, in coordination with Arcadis U.S., Inc., will present water utility best practices to comply with the new requirements of the America’s Water Infrastructure Act for emergency response plan (ERP) updates. Community water systems serving more than 3,300 customers are required to update their ERP in accordance with the deadlines based on utility size. The presenters will provide a structured and progressive approach outlined in the webinar series.  
Presenters: Sarah Moore, CEM; Susan Wyatt; and Mary Jacques, Arcadis US, Inc.
The first webinar, which is open to nonmembers, will focus on AWIA ERP requirements, developing a planning team, planning resources, and the planning process. Presenters will discuss the importance of establishing a schedule for completion and provide an overview of how to set up planning meetings to accomplish the tasks ahead. Resources available for your ERP Planning Team will include how to coordinate with your Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) and your Emergency Management Agency (EMA).
Parts 2 and 3 are open to WaterISAC members only.
