LGR HelpLine
(800) 431-9209

Local governments and other interested parties may call the toll-free HelpLine for any LGR-related matters, including:
  • Obtaining information about the LGR program or inquiring about specific LGR issues;
  • Requesting LGR application packages;
  • Obtaining assistance in completing an application; and
  • Checking the status of a reimbursement request.

The HelpLine is available 24 hours a day. If our HelpLine staff are unavailable, a voicemail system will record your questions or requests for information. The HelpLine staff will return your call or process your request for application packages within 24 hours. You can also order an application package by e-mailing your request to us at lgr.epa@epamail.epa.gov. Response times for other requests for information will vary, depending on the availability of the information being requested.

National Response Center
(800) 424-8802

Call the NRC to report any hazardous substances emergencies. Calling the NRC will help you ensure that your response actions are consistent with the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), the National Contingency Plan, and the local emergency response plan prepared by your Local Emergency Planning Committee. While an applicant is no longer required to call the NRC in order to be eligible for reimbursement under the LGR program, EPA recommends that the call be made.

LGR Program Coordinator
Lisa Boynton at 202-564-2487

Call the EPA LGR Program Coordinator with questions or problems related to specific applications.
