Regional Emergency Management Committee

Regional Emergency Management Committee 

LCPC manages and facilitates emergency management planning activities for all hazards through the Regional Emergency Management Committee (REMC). The REMC is composed of all 10-member towns, with each town appointing two voting members. The first voting member is the Emergency Management Director (EMD), and the second voting member is an emergency services representative (fire, ems, and police). 

The Lamoille County REMC typically meets on a quarterly basis in person with a virtual option. R

The REMC conducts all-hazards preparedness planning/training, coordinates with Vermont Emergency Management (VEM), the State Emergency Response Commission (SERC), and the new Statewide Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC).

The REMC sends a representative(s) to be a member on the statewide LEPC, Vermont Integrated Preparedness Planning Workshop (IPPW), and p Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (THIRA ). LCPC provides the REMC with administrative support, including meeting minutes, grant applications, planning support, and meeting setup. Funding for this is provided through VEM.
