Emergency Management » Local Emergency Planning Committee
The Local Emergency Planning Committee District VII (LEPC 7) is a countywide organization that was formed by the State Emergency Response Commission in the 1980’s. LEPC 7 is very active and contains membership from fire departments, law enforcement agencies, EMS squads, Towns, hospitals, schools, private industries, human service organizations, and others.
The goal of the LEPC is to promote countywide emergency planning. The LEPC serves as a forum for cooperation and collaboration among entities and a resource for those entities. The LEPC assists in sponsoring training and obtaining grant funding for the county, as well as writing and updating emergency plans.
LEPC 7 meets bi-monthly. 2010 meetings will be held on February 11 (rescheduled date), March 25, May 27, July 29, September 30, and November 18. Each meeting will begin at 6:00PM and will be held at the Arlington Fire Department, unless otherwise warned. For more information, contact Lissa Stark at 442-0713 ext.2 or lstark@bcrcvt.org.
