LEPC

LEPC

In Wisconsin, each county is designated as an Emergency Planning District and has a Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC). The committee is made up of county representatives from Business, and Industry, Elected Officials, Health Services, Fire Fighting and HazMat, Environmental Organizations, Media, Law Enforcement, Transportation and Emergency Management. LEPCs administer the Emergency Planning and Right to Know Act (EPCRA) requirements at the county level.

The Fond du Lac County LEPC conducts and oversees emergency response planning for all natural and man-made hazards, biological/chemical hazardous materials training and exercising, and increases public awareness of biological and chemical hazards in our community. It is the Committee’s goal to provide you with emergency information to help you respond if chemicals or biological incidents affect your or your family.

For additional information regarding the LEPC, please contact the Fond du Lac County Emergency Management Department at 920-929-2911.
