Join this NVFC Roundtable Talk to hear from federal, fire service, and industry experts about steps your department can take to both prepare for and prevent pipeline emergencies. Learn about available training programs and resources to promote first responder readiness and help departments with creating and adopting policies and procedures to mitigate pipeline emergencies in their communities. The panelists will also discuss resources fire departments can use for public awareness campaigns, including updated PHMSA guidance to prevent emergencies by encouraging the public to contact 811 before they dig.
