Smoke-Ready Community Workshop
November 2, 2020 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
Imagine us a “Smoke-Ready Community…”
• With safe, clean indoor air for everyone during oppressive wildfire smoke such as suffered this September.
• Where everyone understands how to access and interpret air quality data, and apply it for decision making in their lives.
• Without smoke from unnecessary burning.
• Taking measures to protect everyone’s health so living with smoke from wildfire and forest health initiatives didn’t feel so hard.
Your participation is requested to develop a plan to create this community. Clean Air Methow, the Okanogan River Airshed Partnership, the Colville Reservation Air Quality program, EPA, FEMA and the Federal Reserve Board of San Francisco have collaborated to host this interactive workshop.
Presentations will lay a foundation to describe our current sources of smoke and air pollution and forecast what we can expect with hotter, drier, and smokier summers to come. We’ll define a “smoke-ready community” then break into small discussion groups to solicit community input to drafting and implementing a plan to get there.
