Emergency Preparedness for Michigan Facilities and their Communities
SARA Title III, also known as the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act, requires facilities to report chemical storage information to state and local officials that can be vital to emergency planning and the safety of the community.
The SARA Title III Tier II in-person workshop will provide an overview of program regulations, reporting requirements, emergency planning requirements, and a step-by-step tutorial on logging into Tier II Manager and initiating a 2024 Tier II Annual Report. Time has also been set aside to answer questions and assistance in logging into Tier ll Manager. This workshop is recommended for owners, operators, and environmental and safety personnel of facilities that have hazardous materials on site. Environmental consultants, LEPCs, and fire department personnel can also benefit from this workshop and are encouraged to attend.
