OnScene: 2010 San Bruno Pipeline Explosion
32m · PublishedState of Ready with Ed Colson and Bill Fogarty is back for Season 4.
We have brought some new content to our podcast series with a series called OnScene where we interview those who have responded to disasters and what we as emergency managers, first responders, and everyone interested in disaster response can learn.
In Episode 1, we interview our own co-host, Bill Fogarty, and his response to the 2010 San Bruno Pipeline explosion.
- What's the thought process that begins when you hear a call like that on the radio?
- How does you mind react when you come on scene and starts putting together a mental plan of action?
- Upon reflection, what did he learn that would benefit others if they had to respond to that scenario?
All of these questions and more will be answered in the episode. Stay tuned for more OnScene episodes and don't forget to SUBSCRIBE so you can get all the latest content from State of Ready.

Where can emergency management work hand in hand with facility security? What does it take to get into this field?
