The PA Region 13 Task Force and its business partner, the Pittsburgh Regional Business Coalition for Homeland Security, believe it is important that the region’s business community receive disaster-related information whenever it can assist their planning, response or recovery from man-made or natural disasters.
BECON is a communications program created to address this communications need. Specific “business-oriented communications” are developed by the PA Region 13 Task Force’s county emergency managers and delivered via email to a specific county, group of counties or region wide.
To participate, Region 13 businesses simply have to provide company information; such as company name, email(s) for their designated contact(s) and county or counties of operation.
