SUMMARY:Adapting With Virtual Fencing Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Adapting With Virtual Fencing Webinar\nMay 12 (Part 1) & May 19 (Part 2) \n06:00PM-07:00PM \nJoin Quivira Coalition and World Wildlife Fund for a two-part webinar series on virtual fencing on May 12 and 19.

Join for one or both sessions. \nMay 12: Join Andrew Jakes\, a senior research scientist with the Wyoming Migration Initiative and Wyoming Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit\, and rancher Leo Barthelmess to learn about the connections between sustainable wildlife habitats and virtual fencing ranch management. \nMay 19: Interested in virtual fencing but don’t know which technology makes the most sense for your operation? Ask questions and hear from a panel of ranchers on different technologies available and what might be a best fit for you.

We are reviewing the definition to ensure it follows the law\, reduces red tape\, cuts overall permitting costs\, and lowers the cost of doing business in communities nationwide\, and inviting public input through a series of listening sessions. \nEPA and the Department of Army are conducting this hybrid webinar listening session for industry and agricultural stakeholders on Zoom and in person at EPA facilities in Washington at the Federal Triangle Campus. \nIn-person registration will end at 12 p.m. (noon) two business days before each session. Virtual registration will end at noon one day before each session. \nAttendees may preregister for a three-minute time slot to speak. Slots will be assigned on a first-come\, first-served basis and will be limited by the duration of the meeting. Please sign up to speak at only one listening session. If you are confirmed for registration\, the moderator will call on you by name when it is your turn to speak. Confirmed speakers will receive an invitation to join the session as a Panelist with additional information. Requests to speak may be requested during the listening session\, pending availability. \nParticipants can also register to listen only. Once the speaking slots are filled\, participants can register to listen to the session or join the speaker waitlist. Registration will be closed when capacity in the listening sessions has been met. \nFor more information: Please reach out to wotus-outreach@epa.gov with questions or to arrange for accommodations (e.g.\, sign language interpreters or translation). Accommodations will be provided if received no later than one week before the listening session. EPA will use your registration information solely for this event.
