Hear the first hour of Spokane Public Radio's 2016 Health and Safety Forum, hosted by Steve Jackson. It featured Gerry Bozarth from the Greater Spokane Emergency Management agency, then-Assistant Spokane Fire Chief Brian Schaeffer, Sheriff Ozzie Knezovich, State Rep. Marcus Riccelli (D-Spokane), Susan Sjoberg from the Spokane Regional Health District and others.

This week on Inland Journal, we’ll focus on local emergencies and how you can be prepared. Our guest will be Gerry Bozarth from the Spokane County Emergency Management agency. We don’t have hurricanes here or many of the other disasters that other regions do, but we’ll focus on those we do occasionally experience, wind and ice storms and wildfires. And we’ll talk about what you should do and have ready in case something happens
