UMR Hazardous Spills Coordination Group

Spring Meeting

(Virtual)
April 21, 2026
9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

Spring meeting of the UMR Hazardous Spills Coordination Group.  We will look ahead to 2026 activities to improve preparedness and response along the river corridor.

Changes to federal response roles in response to both hazardous materials releases and floods may be creating new roles for the states.  Please be ready to share changes to capacity or responsibilities that impact your agency.  We offer this forum as a place to discuss any new needs that could be addressed through our shared activities and preparedness.

We traditionally hold the spring meeting in-person, but resource limitations have led to this meeting being held virtually.  Virtual connection information will be made available in a calendar invitation.  Contact Mark Ellis mellis@umrba.org if you would like to join the meeting.
