The National Volunteer Fire Council is hosting a free webinar on pipeline disaster response June 3.
When a pipeline incident occurs, communication and coordination between a utility or pipeline operator and emergency response agency is critical. But lurking is a laundry list of myths that both groups – as well as the regulatory community – have embraced.
These misconceptions introduce dangers and risks that impact the potential for not only successful communication and coordination, but the ability to safely resolve an event of any size. The webinar will uncover the 10 most common myths affecting pipeline response.

The session will provide real-world perspectives from both responders and the pipeline and utilities, plus practical strategies to improve drills, liaison programs, and on-scene coordination.
In addition to learning about the top myths that impact communication and safety, attendees will learn how to strengthen coordination with pipeline operators. They will also get ideas to enhance training and preparedness.
