What is the SERC primarily supposed to do?
The SERC oversees the administration of the SARA Title III program in the state. The SERC approves the LEPC memberships and supports the function of the LEPCs. The SERC communicates changes in the SARA-related regulations to the LEPCs and serves as a point of contact for the regulated community. The SERC ensures that there is public availability of the documents submitted to the SERC under all Sections of SARA Title III (with the exception of trade secret protection for registered facilities and confidential location information which may be submitted on the Tier II form).
