Live Exercise Sept 24 in Bruderheim

On September 24th, a full-scale simulation will take place in the Town of Bruderheim. “The scenario is a rail incident involving hazardous materials and multi-agency response,” says Brenda Gheran, Executive Director of NR CAER.  The overarching goal of all exercises is to prove and improve response plans. “In each exercise, we see best practices and identify areas for improvement,” says Gheran. “Exercises make our communities safer and more resilient, and give our members the opportunity to practice response and strengthen relationships before an incident.”

There will be responders and response vehicles on area roads and at the exercise location. NR CAER thanks the Town of Bruderheim and its residents for hosting the exercise.
