Many communities now have local emergency planning committees (LEPCs) that are in charge of gathering information about hazardous materials in the community, developing emergency response plans, and providing the information to citizens.
Is there an LEPC or a similar organization in your community? Are you familiar with the emergency plan or programs that are available in your community? What element of the plan or program is the most important to you? Is there an element that can be improved; which one? Explain why.
