ISC was requested to present on Critical Infrastructure at the American Society of Civil Engineers’ 139th Annual Conference. ASCE compiled a distinguished panel to elevate the situational awareness of our nation’s critical infrastructure and to encourage the ASCE community to bridge the gap between the engineering and emergency management community. These experts discussed the importance of the interdependence of critical infrastructure to prepare for the next disaster and the critical need for enhanced communication and coordination with organizations throughout the nation. Above all, the engineering community will need to support emergency managers in all operational phases, at all levels of the government and private sector. For more information, visit:
