Who are we?

The Tri-County Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) is committed to enhancing emergency preparedness and response for residents, businesses, and first responders.

Our Mission

Our mission is to plan for and mitigate hazardous materials incidents, ensuring a swift and effective response to keep our community safe.

What do we do?

We conduct training exercises, provide educational resources, and collaborate with emergency response teams to develop emergency action plans. From coordinating chemical spill response strategies to organizing disaster preparedness workshops, the LEPC plays a vital role in community safety. We also work with local businesses to ensure compliance with hazardous material regulations and encourage public participation in emergency planning efforts.
