Pittsburgh emergency team leads national response to restore emergency power across US

Julie D’Annunzio, emergency management specialist for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Pittsburgh District, and John Warren, local public safety manager for the city of Pittsburgh, visit an emergency medical services headquarters during a simulated emergency power exercise hosted in Pittsburgh, Feb. 1, 2023. During natural disasters, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers responds to provide generators, remove debris, and protect damaged roofs from ensuing rain. Multiple districts across the country share responsibilities for cleanup and roof programs, but the Pittsburgh District leads the temporary power mission.
