This document contains a summary of state programs related to immediate notification to the appropriate agencies when a reportable quantity (RQ) of an extremely hazardous substance (EHS) or a non-EHS hazardous substance is released.
If an amount equal to, or greater than, the reportable quantity (RQ) is released or spilled from a fixed facility, notification must be made immediately to the State Emergency Response Commission (SERC) and Local Emergency Response Committee (LEPC). In addition, CERCLA spills that occur anywhere in the United States must be reported to the National Response Center. Emergency notification requirements involving transportation incidents can be met by dialing 911, or in the absence of a 911 emergency number, calling the local operator.
A follow-up written report must be submitted to the SERC and LEPC as soon as practicable after the release. The follow-up written report must update information included in the initial notice and provide information on actual response actions taken and advice regarding medical attention necessary for citizens exposed.
