Storm-Resilient Urban Forests: Response Resilience, Are You Prepared to Respond?

Storms occur in both small communities and large metropolitan areas. Planning early and often is good advice to prepare for your initial storm response. A triage approach for debris management takes care of the worst first and productively leads to a timed and planned response to the aftermath of storms. During this webinar, Extension Agents and educators will learn a variety of approaches communities have used to respond to storms and ultimately manage tree damage and tree debris. The speaker will also discuss a variety of actions to incorporate into community storm response before a storm happens.

Speaker: Dr. Richard Hauer - Professor of Urban Forestry, University of Wisconsin – Stevens Point

ISA and SAF credits applied for.
