County: The Greene County Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) is responsible, under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know act of 1986, for development of the Greene County's Hazardous Material Emergency Response Plan. Greene County LEPC conducted a Hazardous Material Flow study in August of 2015 intended to examine the methods of transportation and storage of hazardous materials throughout the Springfield-Greene County area. The possibility exists that an accident involving hazardous material can occur and is a real and ever-present concern for the community, elected officials, and public safety professionals. This study is not a detailed enumeration based on a 100% inventory of every possible possession or instance of travel through the general area. It is a snapshot based on observations and reports publically supplied by those entities identified that may carry, transport, or house hazardous materials. In addition, there is a vast network of pipelines, including four major petroleum pipelines that carry natural gas and other materials throughout the county. There are numerous rail lines throughout the
