TT DMA Overview

The Point Lisas Industrial Estate’s Community Awareness and Emergency Response program paved the way for the DMA to enrich the process with Community disaster preparedness training, simulations and a donation of communications, emergency response and flood management equipment to the responsible municipal authorities, The Couva Tabaquite Talparo Regional Corporation (CTTRC).  CTTRC’s performance has improved dramatically, drawing praise from communities grateful for such prompt service enabling them to satisfy basic needs and to stay in their homes.  CTTRC’s efforts and results have motivated NGC and AmChamTT to nominate CTTRC for the OSHA award this year. (OSHA is the Occupational Safety and Health Act). Risk assessments and Disaster Preparedness Plans have already been produced throughout Trinidad.
