Huntsville, Alabama The Military Munitions Support Services (M2S2) webinar series hosted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) enjoyed tremendous support and success during the FY13 inaugural year, with over 1300 participants tuning in to the six webinars conducted during the year. Participants included representatives from DOD, other Federal agencies, regulators, private industry, stakeholders, academia, and international attendees.

USACE plans to host another six webinars in FY14 but in order to do so, your assistance is needed. The webinars are only as good as the topics and speakers which comprise them and we want to assemble the very best webinar sessions possible. In order to do that, we are requesting presentation abstracts from across the M2S2 community, including private industry, government (federal or state, any agency with an interest in military munitions response), regulators, and stakeholders. Our objective for the M2S2 webinars is to share knowledge, technologies, best practices, and lessons learned across the spectrum of munitions response activities.
