OUr focus
At Horsley Witten Group, we provide Emergency Response Planning for water utilities that result in stronger, healthier communities. Our daily lives and our economy rely heavily on the consistent availability of safe drinking water and wastewater services — especially during an emergency!
We are involved in important training exercises to make sure this happens.
Emergency Services include:
- Risk Assessment and Emergency Response Plans
- National Incident Management Systems (NIMS) Training
- Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) Exercises
- Specialty Workshops and Training for Critical Infrastructure
“We all learned a great deal from this experience. My branch chief stated that he thought this was the most important project undertaken this year. It helps us with our source water protection work and our DC implementation program.”
