As constant evolution takes place in the emergency response industry, each new challenge can be an opportunity to improve. In response to these rapid changes, ACME Environmental and Rapid Response Systems hosted a four-day boom school at the Port of Muskogee from October 23-26, 2023. This boom deployment course provided emergency responders with the latest technologies and strategies to improve situational awareness and decision-making. This hybrid course utilized both classroom and field training exercises with successfully proven deployment and response tactics and strategies as well as new technology and systems for company job sites.
