Local Emergency Planning Committee

The Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) meets at least twice a year to identify facilities that use, companies that produce, and transportation routes that are used to move extremely hazardous materials.

The LEPC has representation from twelve categories that include an elected local official, law enforcement, emergency management, fire service, emergency medical service, Board of Health, Conservation, hospital, transportation, media, community group, public works, and a representative from a local generator of hazardous materials.
