TAMUNING—The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is offering specialized training to provide advanced understanding of the hazards posed by improvised explosives and potentially dangerous chemicals.

The “Chemical Industry Outreach Workshop” is intended for public safety officials and people who work in the chemical industry. This includes suppliers of pool chemicals, beauty supplies, and home improvement materials.

The workshop will include a classroom presentation and demonstration on the explosive effects of conventional and improvised explosives. The demonstrations will underscore the potential dangers of particular chemicals, both in the hands of terrorists as well as juvenile experimenters.

The one-day workshop will be offered on both Wednesday, April 18th and Thursday, April 19th in Magnilao.

There is no cost to attend, but there is limited seating. Those interested in attending should submit their name, workshop date preference, telephone number and e-mail address, company/agency name, and job title to jjkowatch@fbi.gov.
