Each Hazmat/WMD Technician completes hundreds of hours of initial training to join the team, and that’s just the beginning. We train monthly to maintain competency and complete two major exercises each year to demonstrate our readiness to handle the most challenging incidents...
Each year, our team responds to about twenty incidents involving industrial spills, transportation accidents, confined space rescues and assistance to law enforcement.
