Dark Site Protocols and Etiquette
Presenter: Rick Gering
Location: Streamed online.
If you’ve never been to a dark site and would like to know what that’s all about, or if it’s been awhile since you’ve been to one, this program’s for you. Rick will tell us why observing is better at a dark site, where we can find dark sites that are open to the public (as well as a couple that are just for NAA members), and will outline one hard-and-fast rule and some more flexible best practices that you should bear in mind while using these areas.
This event is open to the public and free of charge.
