Virtual Spring Flood Seminar and Regional events


Virtual Spring Flood Seminar and Regional events

Vermont Emergency Management and its partners will once again offer the annual Spring Flood Seminar virtually, and then hold additional virtual events to answer specific questions from those in different regions of Vermont.

The virtual event will be held through Microsoft Teams on January 25th from 12:30-4pm. This event will provide information to local officials about the upcoming flood season, and how to prepare for, respond to, and recover from seasonal flooding. The session will be recorded and widely shared after the event.

Two weeks following the virtual seminar, VEM will hold three virtual regional question & answer sessions. These will be a virtual opportunity to receive an update from the National Weather Service tailored to that region, meet individuals who serve that region, and ask any questions relating to seasonal flooding. The events will be held:

  • February 7th, 12-1pm: Spring Flood Q&A – Northeast.  Washington, Lamoille, Orleans, Essex & Caledonia counties. 

  • February 8th, 12-1pm: Spring Flood Q&A – South.  Bennington, Windham, Windsor, Orange, and Rutland counties. 

  • February 9th, 12-1pm: Spring Flood Q&A – Northwest.  Franklin, Grand Isle, Chittenden & Addison counties. 

Additional information, including links, will be provided in the January newsletter and shared through our training email list. https://vem.vermont.gov/email-lists
