The false alarm alert from Hawai‘i’s Emergency Management Agency (HI-EMA) on January 13 may have been a wake-up call for everyone. According to a report released this week, Hawai‘i has a long way to go to adequately prepare for a nuclear disaster – or any kind of disaster.
On this INSIGHTS, we’ll hear from four organizations with critical roles should Hawai‘i ever be the target of a nuclear attack. Joining us will be representatives from the Hawai‘i Emergency Management Agency, the Hawai‘i State Department of Education, and the Hawai‘i Department of Transportation.
