DEP Linkups Workshop

DEP Linkups are free and held bi-monthly. These events are meaningful platforms for "connectivity." They encourage information sharing networks among stakeholders, regulated communities, local businesses and government agencies.

By providing this regular program, attendees have the opportunity to learn, update and share information with a guest speaker who provides channels of participatory discussion with our regulated and non-regulated community.

Subscribe to receive future DEP Linkups workshop notifications. For the opportunity to participate as a speaker, please contact Martha Avila or Brooke Keck.
