Local Emergency Planning Committee
The purpose of the Somerset County’s LEPC is to enhance Somerset County preparedness and response to hazardous materials incidents by involving the government, private businesses, nonprofit organizations, and citizens in planning and preparing for such an incident. In the past decade, the LEPC has expanded its scope to include planning for and responding to all emergencies that the community could be faced with including natural disasters, acts of terrorism, cybersecurity and infectious disease/pandemics.
