There is now a single Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) for the State of Vermont. All Hazardous Material “Tier II” questions and reporting should be directed to the State Tier II Compliance Program. Meetings are held monthly (with the exception of July and December) at the Public Safety Building/VSP barracks on Route 7 in New Haven. ACEPC is a local organization whose responsibilities are established by Vermont law (20 V.S.A. § 32) and Federal laws (Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act [EPCRA] §§ 301–303, 40 CFR Part 355, and the Superfund Amendment and Re-Authorization Act [SARA], Title III).
