What can MT WARN do for you?

In order to be eligible for federal grants and reimbursements before, during and after an emergency, all community water/wastewater systems are to:

• Adopt the National Incident Management System (NIMS).
• Support the development of interstate mutual aid programs.
• Integrate response at the field, local and state levels of government.

The MT WARN program will help facilitate meeting these requirements.
