Regional Summits to Combat Equipment Thefts
Sponsored by the National Equipment Register (NER) and the F.B.I. Law Enforcement Executive Development Association, the first in a series of one-day regional summits on equipment thefts will be held on June 21 at the Mississippi Agriculture and Forestry Museum in Jackson.
The free one-day meeting will include general sessions on the equipment theft problem, equipment theft prevention and the latest in equipment security technology. The summit is being hosted by Sheriff Malcolm McMillin of Hinds County, Miss. and Commissioner Lester Spell, Jr., of the Mississippi Department of Agriculture and Commerce.
Break-out classes will provide equipment owners with in-depth training on how to prevent thefts and law enforcement with instruction in equipment identification techniques. New equipment security technologies will be explained and demonstrated throughout the day.
At lunch, breaks and a reception, equipment owners and law enforcement will have a chance to network and discuss ways of working together to combat the growing problem of equipment theft.
All registrations must be received by NER by June 14. Space is limited.
A second summit will be held in San Bernardino, Calif., in July, with further summits to be scheduled in Texas and Florida.
