The Yuma Ammonia Safety Day Committee will hold its fifth annual safety day on February 19, 2009. This community outreach event brings to attendees greater ammonia awareness including both its benefits and hazards. We hosted more than 300 attendees in 2008, all of whom received important and practical knowledge about ammonia, and we anticipate more than 350 this year. 
 
In 2009 we again plan to simulate a live ammonia release to demonstrate the behavior of ammonia as it is released under pressure, and what response actions are most effective in resolving problems caused by accidental releases.  In addition to the main sessions, we will be offering a choice of four workshop tracks to address specific topics,  with one track available in Spanish.

The purpose of  the Yuma Area Ammonia Safety Day is to provide individuals with the opportunity to receive information and training from agencies and safety professionals; to network with  professionals who are experts in their fields; and to develop relationships with vendors and others from the entire arena of the ammonia industry.

There is no fee to attend the Safety Day; however, we ask that all attendees register on line using this web form in order for us to provide teaching materials, handout folders and CD’s, as well as breakfast and lunch.
