BALDWIN COUNTY LOCAL EMERGENCY PLANNI...
Description
On October 17, 1986, the U.S. Congress passed the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act, also known as SARA Title III or the Emergency Planning and Community Right To Know Act (EPCRA), following a chemical disaster where an accidental release of Methyl Isocyanate injured and killed more than 2,000 people in Bhopal, India.
EPCRA was passed to ensure the public would have the right to know about hazardous and toxic chemicals in their communities.
