Posted By Office of Public Affairs

Senior leaders from various agencies are meeting in Kansas City, Mo., this week to take part in Amber Waves 2012, a radiological dispersal device (RDD) exercise series sponsored by DOE and NNSA. Leaders from various counties and federal agencies representing Missouri, Kansas and Iowa are taking part in the incident management table-top exercise. The goal of the exercise is to foster interagency collaboration among federal, state and local organizations. The Federal Radiological Management and Assessment Center, coordinated by DOE/NNSA, is a major player in the exercise.
