Tier2 reports, also know has Hazardous Chemical Inventory reports, are required by federal law to be submitted annually by companies storing hazardous chemicals. These reports contain information on the type, amount, and storage of hazardous chemicals in quantities large enough to impact the surrounding community if there was an accident or spill. These reports help local emergency planners and responders prepare for and respond to accidents involving hazardous chemicals. These reports also allow citizens to know what facilities in their neighborhood store hazardous chemicals so that citizens can make informed decisions about what to do if an accident occurs. For more information on a specific facility, please contact DEQ. |
