Risk Management Program Amendment Delays
According to our research, the RMP amendments will improve the safety of chemical
processing, improve information access for first responders, and protect local communities. The
amendments also implement good data governance practices to ensure that Local Emergency
Planning Committees (LEPCs) , emergency response officials, and members of the public can5
better access risk assessments and emergency-response information from facilities. By
improving accident prevention program requirements and enhancing emergency preparedness,
the RMP amendments protect communities and first responders.
