On September 9, 2024, the USTUR joined the CBRNResponder Network. CBRNResponder is a platform for all chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) incident data sharing and multi-hazard event management. The decision to join this network was made following a discussion during 2024 Scientific Advisory Committee meeting.
As stated on their website: “CBRNResponder is a product of collaboration sponsored by Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Department of Energy (DOE)/National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), NA-84 and the Office of Radiological Security (ORS), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), and the Department of Homeland Security’s Science and Technology Directorate (DHS S&T), and is provided as a free service to all state, local, tribal, and territorial emergency response organizations.”
