Emergency Operations Anti-Terrorism and Disaster Preparedness

The TRFD began preparing for terrorist activities long before it was recognized as a national crisis. Training activities have been ongoing for the last three years to increase the preparedness of the department to manage these types of incidents. The growing incidence of terrorism increases the need for department and community preparedness in the event of any type of disaster whether it is man made or natural. The department has been working with the City of Two Rivers Police Department, and the Manitowoc County Emergency Government Office to increase awareness and preparedness through state and federally sponsored programs.
