Agenda Archive: Emergency Planning and Evacuations

This episode was originally released on July 16, 2024.

Did you know Missoula County has a whole department dedicated to emergency planning? The Office of Emergency Management, or OEM, is tasked with planning for and responding to natural and man-made disasters in our communities.

This week we’re re-airing an episode of The Agenda from summer 2024 featuring an interview with OEM Director Adriane Beck. She touches on emergency alert systems, evacuation planning and shelters, fire restrictions and more.
