Western Producer: Producers Urged to be Ready for Catastrophic Incidents
Alex McCuaig – Planning and education for a catastrophic incident are key, whether it’s disease or a natural disaster.
“Arranging a plan just before a disaster is somewhat better but producers can find themselves up against others in the same boat, all attempting to get supplies such as generators at the same time.
There are some simple steps for planning for the worst-case scenario well in advance, said Husted, who emphasized the importance of contacting local fire chiefs or emergency managers to understand regional responses to disasters.”
