DEP Starts Webinar Series For Families June 27 On Summertime Advisories

The Department of Environmental Protection announced today that it will launch a series of free quarterly webinars, called DEP@Home, on Wednesday, June 27, at 7 p.m.
The series will run in the evenings, in order to teach families how to make their homes safer and more energy-efficient.
“Environmental protection starts at home,” DEP Secretary Mike Krancer said. “Providing these webinars is an important step in educating Pennsylvanians about how to make that principle a reality.”
The first webinar, “Summertime Advisories,” will last no longer than an hour and will include a question-and-answer session with DEP experts. Participants will learn about black fly spraying, West Nile virus, Ozone Action Days and fish consumption advisories.
Future topics will focus on--
-- August - Water Well-ness: Learn about construction and care for private water wells and septic systems.
-- October - Watts Up?: Learn some simple energy conservation tips to prepare for the change of the seasons.
-- January - The Reality of Radon: Learn about testing for and mitigating radon.
