RE: Verizon Wireless
Annual EPCRA Section 311 & 312 Federal Tier II Reportinq Changes
Dear Sir or Madam:
Based on review of the attached letter and information provided online through the California
Emergency Management Agency and Certified Unified Program Agencies websites, it is our
understanding that submission of a Hazardous Material Business Plan (HMBP), in accordance
with Health and Safety Code, Chapter 6.95, Article 1, satisfies the Federal Tier II reporting
requirements under section 311 & 312 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right -to-
Know Act ( EPCRA).
As such, Verizon Wireless will discontinue submitting duplicate hazardous material inventories
by way of federal EPCRA Tier II filings and rely solely on its hazardous material inventory
reporting through the HMBP program to satisfy its reporting obligations. We are taking this step
to eliminate duplicate filings that may lead to confusion within the agencies receiving such
filings.
The California Business Plan requirements for Verizon Wireless is currently managed and
processed by the Regional Regulatory & Emergency Contact person Armand Delgado. For any
additional information needed to satisfy the California Business Plan requirements please
contact Armand directly at 925 - 260 -9131.
Should you have any questions regarding this matter, I can be reached at (908) 559 -7260. Or
you may contact our EPCRA Coordinator, Susan Calderon directly at 908 - 559 -7265.
Respectfully,
Richard A. Craig
Director, Compliance
