Workshop focuses on water supply, food safety
EAST LANSING (AP) -- The FBI is among the agencies hosting a workshop this week at Michigan State University focusing on the safety of the water supply and the agriculture sector.
The "Multi-Sector Infrastructure Protection and Threat Workshop" takes places Wednesday and Thursday at the East Lansing campus. The FBI says similar workshops have been held in other parts of the country. The FBI says one of the main issues is "protecting water, food, and agriculture assets."
The workshop will include presentations from the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
FBI Detroit Interim Special Agent in Charge Edward Hanko noted in a statement there is "no known threat to our food and water supply."
