Hazardous Chemicals in Our Community

Thousands of chemicals are used by industry every day to produce goods we use. While many of these chemicals provide great benefits, their use also involves potential risks.

Hazardous chemicals are present throughout our community; they are used in industry, in farming, and even in schools and hospitals. You have a right to know what hazardous chemicals are present in your community and what the known risks are. How are these chemicals used and where are they stored? What if an accidental chemical release should occur in Midland County? Would you know what to do? Are fire and police departments prepared for such an emergency?

What is the "EMERGENCY PLANNING AND COMMUNITY RIGHT-TO-KNOW ACT?"

It is a 1986 law which requires communities to plan for emergencies should an accidental release of hazardous chemicals occur. It also provides government and the public with information concerning potential chemical hazards present in our community.

This law, the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act, is also known as SARA Title III. SARA is short for the Superfund Amendments and Re-authorization Act. Title III is the section of law where the emergency planning and community right-to-know components are found.

What are the major provisions of this law?

The law requires: State and local governments, along with industry, to have an emergency response plan for chemical accidents to protect public health and the environment.

Industry to report the amount and types of Extremely Hazardous Substances (EHS) it stores and uses.

Emergency notification of chemical accidents and releases.

This information will be made available to the public.

What is an Extremely Hazardous Substance (EHS)?

It is any chemical that could cause serious health problems if it were accidentally released into the environment. More than 350 commonly used chemicals have been classified as Extremely Hazardous Substances. Here are a few examples:
