The Matanuska-Susitna Borough's Local Emergency Planning Committee, or LEPC, is a voluntary organization which was established in an Emergency Planning District designated by the Alaska State Emergency Response Commission (SERC).

Both SERC and LEPCs were created to meet the requirements of the federal Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act, also known as the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) Title III for emergency response planning.
As a very important aspect of its mandate, the Mat-Su LEPC is required to receive the annual Tier Two (Chemical Inventory) Reports from local industries.
The LEPC uses this information to perform hazard assessments for Borough communities. The information from these reports is available to the public, upon request.

Due to the prevalence of natural and weather related disasters in Alaska, the Mat-Su LEPC has enhanced its emergency planning to include an "all hazards" focus.

    The Mat-Su LEPC may be contacted through the Matanuska-Sustina Borough's Department of Emergency Services:
