About the Tier II Form
The Hamilton County Local Emergency Planning Committee requires, by the authority given by the SARA Title III legislation, that Tier II forms (as opposed to Tier I forms) be used by companies submitting to comply with this legislation. This form identifies the chemical, its Chemical Abstract Service (CAS) number, its health consequences, quantities, storage location, and emergency contacts. This form is utilized by the LEPC, citizens, and other interested parties for a variety of purposes including emergency planning, hazardous materials response, and right to know issues of employees, citizens, and HAZMAT responders. Companies that meet quantity criteria set forth in the EPA's "Title III Consolidated List of Chemicals Subject to the Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act (EPCRA) and Section 112(r) of the Clean Air Act, as Amended" must file these forms by March 1 of each year.

You may use either the Federal Tier II form or the Tier2 Submit software to file with the LEPC. Use of the Tier2 Submit software is strongly encouraged, but not required.  If you choose to use the Tier2 Submit software to submit to the LEPC, you must still send a hard copy to your local Fire Marshall and the state Title III Coordinator. A hard copy can be printed from the Tier2 Submit program.

Tier II Submit 2007
  • Tier2 Submit 2007 is a free software program developed by the EPA and NOAA that allows facilities to enter and submit Tier II chemical information electronically.  The software creates a zip file that can be emailed to the LEPC at wstuntz@hamiltonTN.gov or can be saved to a CD or floppy disk and mailed to the LEPC.  At the LEPC, these files will be imported into CAMEO (Computer-Aided Management of Emergency Operations) and used for emergency planning. 
  • Tier2 Submit Software is available free of charge by downloading from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's web site.  On the EPA's web page, scroll down to Tier 2 Submit Software and choose either the Windows version or the Macintosh version for download.
  • The Facility Submission Guide is an excellent reference in learning how to use the software. To download the guide, click here.  Adobe Acrobat Reader is required to open the file. 
  • To look at a simple Tier2 tutorial, click here.
  • If you should require assistance with downloading or have questions about the software, contact the RMP Reporting Center at 301-429-5018.
