The Federal Science Behind Volcano and Landslide Risk Reduction

Wednesday, July 17, 9:45 to 10:45 a.m. MDT
Location: Pine

The National Volcano Early Warning System and National Landslide Hazards Reduction Program are federal efforts to reduce risk and losses from domestic volcanoes and landslides. This session will provide an overview of both efforts, share examples of effective multi-agency partnerships, discuss advances in federal science and community risk reduction, and present new nationwide science efforts to bridge gaps. The audience will be encouraged to provide feedback on the role of federal science in reducing risk in underserved and rural communities, as well as the information needed for local decision-making.
