Dear Mr. Link:
The North Carolina Hazardous Materials Regional Response program was established by
the General Assembly in 1993. This program currently supports six Hazmat Regional Response
Teams(RRT's) available twenty-four hours a day to respond to hazardous materials incidents and
accidents requiring technician level entry capabilities. The teams are now in full operation and are
providing outstanding levels of service across the state.
The response capabilities of the RRT's is only a portion of a comprehensive approach to
hazardous materials preparedness and response. Equally important is a local government's ability
to manage chemical information for planning purposes, utilize readily available chemical response
computer software and to communicate electronically with our Division of Emergency
Management operations section in Raleigh via the Internet. To this end we are making grants
available to local governments to provide funding for the purchase of microcomputers as well as
related equipment and/or software.
This funding is intended to provide the capabilities described above to county Emergency
Management offices across the state.
I invite you to apply for this grant by signing the attached Grant Award document and
returning it to:
