SUMMARY:Storm Recovery: Do you know what to do with storm debris? New Tools for Responding to Natural Disasters
DESCRIPTION:Climate change is expected to worsen the frequency\, intensity\, and impact from extreme weather events\, like floods\, tornadoes\, and ice storms. Natural disasters generally result in significant damage to infrastructure and increase in the amount and types of materials requiring disposal. This can pose a threat or substantial nuisance to human health and environmental if not handled quickly and properly. See the new resources at Michigan.gov/EGLEStormRecovery and join us to learn more! \nIn this webinar\, emergency responders\, local officials\, community planners\, and Michigan residents will learn about: \n• The regulations for managing storm debris. \n• EGLE’s authority and Michigan’s process for obtaining an Emergency Solid Waste Disposal Authorization in response to a natural disaster. \n• New online tools to help prepare for and respond to a natural disaster. \nJoin us for this webinar to learn how you and your community can prepare for and be ready to respond to a natural disaster in your community.

SUMMARY:Interconnected Injustices: Understanding Cumulative Impacts
DESCRIPTION:Across the United States\, low-income communities and communities of color are subject to an array of environmental burdens such as pollution\, limited healthcare\, and systemic racism. These stressors aren’t independent: one burden can make individuals disproportionately vulnerable to others. However\, cumulative impacts are not always considered by environmental justice screening tools and other policy processes. There have been some recent changes in the US to address this problem. New state laws are attempting to address cumulative impacts\, and federal funding through the Inflation Reduction Act and Justice40 is largely geared toward Environmental Justice initiatives. With these new policies\, the tools policymakers are using to carry out environmental policy must incorporate cumulative impacts. \nJoin Resources for the Future (RFF) on Wednesday\, April 10 for “Environmental Justice: Understanding Cumulative Impacts\,” the second webinar in our 2024 Exposure event series. At this event\, we will dive deep into these cumulative impacts and the importance of understanding them when shaping environmental policy. \nSpeakers: \n• Ana Baptista\, The New School \n• Peggy Shepard\, WE ACT for Environmental Justice \n• Lucija Muehlenbachs\, University of Calgary and Resources for the Future (Moderator)

SUMMARY:General Public Webinar on EPA's Final PFAS NPDWR
DESCRIPTION:EPA is hosting an informational webinar for communities on April 16\, 2024 about EPA’s recently finalized Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) National Primary Drinking Water Regulation (NPDWR). During the webinar\, EPA will provide information and an overview of the final PFAS NPDWR\, including the regulation’s requirements and implementation timeline. \nThe webinar will be informational only. To view the final NPDWR and for more supporting information\, please see EPA’s PFAS NPDWR website at: https://www.epa.gov/sdwa/and-polyfluoroalkyl-substances-pfas. \nRegistration for the webinar is required. Translations and disability access support can be requested during webinar registration. If you are unable to attend the webinar\, a recording and the presentation material will be made available following the webinar on EPA’s PFAS drinking water rule website at: https://www.epa.gov/sdwa/and-polyfluoroalkyl-substances-pfas. For webinar registration issues\, logistical questions\, or if you experience any technical difficulties during the public webinar\, please contact pfasmeetingsupport@cadmusgroup.com. For all other questions\, related to the public webinar\, please contact PFASNPDWR@epa.gov. \nPlease note that EPA is hosting two other similar informational webinars on the final PFAS NPDWR. One is intended for the drinking water professional community on April 23\, 2024\, and the other is on April 30\, 2024\, and intended for small drinking water systems as part of EPA’s Small System \nWebinar Series (https://www.epa.gov/water-research/small-drinking-water-systems-webinar-series).

Establishing an NPDWR for PFAS is a key action in the Roadmap. More information about the final PFAS drinking water regulation is available at: https://www.epa.gov/sdwa/and-polyfluoroalkyl-substances-pfas.
