Local Emergency Planning Committee
Each Wisconsin county is designated as an emergency planning district and has a Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) to administer the local program. LEPC membership includes local elected officials, members of emergency response agencies and representatives for transportation, public works, the media, community groups, environmental groups and operators of affected facilities.
LEPCs are responsible for receiving and maintaining filings of facility submissions. They also maintain a countywide emergency response plan, develop and maintain facilities' offsite emergency response plans and the county's hazard analysis for both fixed facilities and transportation. LEPCs assess the county hazmat response resources and equipment, respond to public requests for information under "community right-to-know" law, and conduct hazmat training and exercises.
