Hawaiian Drought Workshop Registration: Maui, Hawaii - June 24, 2008 Hawaii,  Hawaii - June 26, 2008

Registration Open for Hawaiian Drought Workshops in June

At the request of Hawaii state officials, the National Drought Mitigation Center is presenting workshops to help Hawaii reduce vulnerability to drought. Presentations will focus on Hawaii’s drought experiences and on the drought management tools that the NDMC is developing with sponsorship from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Risk Management Agency.

Workshops will be of interest to farmers and ranchers, people whose livelihoods depend on tourism and recreation, water suppliers, environmental organizations, natural resources managers, and state and local officials with responsibility for building resilience to drought through monitoring and planning. All are welcome, but sign up soon because space is limited.

Two separate workshops will accommodate people in agricultural areas. Please register on-line by clicking on the link for each workshop immediately below the location and filling out the form. There is no cost. If for some reason your on-line registration does not go through, please contact Neal Fujii, Hawaii State Drought Coordinator, by emailing neal.d.fujii@hawaii.gov or by calling 808-587-0264.
