EPCRA Section 302(c)

The Emergency Planning Notification requirement involves chemicals listed on the extremely hazardous substances list (see 40 CFR part 355).

What do facilities need to report?

Any facility that has any of the listed chemicals at or above its threshold planning quantity must notify the SERC and LEPC within 60 days after they first receive a shipment or produce the substance on site. The facility also must notify the LEPC of a facility representative who will participate in the emergency planning process. Upon request from the LEPC, the facility shall promptly provide information to the LEPC necessary for developing and implementing the emergency plan.

Where can I find more information on these requirements?

For more information on emergency release notification requirements, see EPCRA sections 304, 40 CFR part 355, or Hotline Training Module (PDF).
