Tribal Emergency Preparedness and Response Webinars
Environmental emergencies from natural disasters, contamination of hazardous materials, oil discharges or chemical accidents may occur, so it is important for Tribal communities to be prepared to implement necessary prevention and response measures.
The goal of these webinars is to assist Tribes with learning tools, techniques and resources.
These webinars are a free and open resource for communities who are interested in trainings on environmental emergency response and management.
Topics covered may include emergency removals of hazardous materials, oil spill prevention, or chemical emergency preparedness regulations on Tribal lands.

In October 2025, EPA published an On-Scene Coordinator Lithium-Ion Battery Response Guide. This two-hour webinar will cover key components of the guide, highlighting what can be translated to Tribal emergency responders and environmental programs. During the last hour of the webinar, participants will get the opportunity to sketch an outline for their own guide that meets their needs and programming. Though the intended audience for this webinar are those involved in Tribal emergency response and waste management programs, all are welcome to attend.
