National Preparedness Month – Week 3
This week focuses on risk assessment. Conduct a risk assessment to find out your vulnerabilities…Vulnerability Self-Assessment Tool
Drinking water and wastewater utilities of all sizes can use VSAT to enhance their security and resiliency. Utilities can:
- Identify the highest risks to mission-critical operations
- Find the most cost-effective measures to reduce those risks
VSAT Version 6.0 complies with the water sector risk assessment standard and can offer liability protection under the Department of Homeland Security’s Support Anti-Terrorism by Fostering Effective Technologies (SAFETY) Act program. EPA strongly encourages drinking water and wastewater utility owners and operators to use VSAT 6.0 to conduct or update an all-hazards risk assessment.
