Accessing RMP Data
Is Risk Management Plan (RMP) data available to the public and, if so, where can it be found?
Risk Management Plans (RMPs) prepared and submitted pursuant to CAA section 112(r) are, by statute, available to the public.
Members of the general public may obtain RMP data by visiting a designated federal reading room or by contacting their SERC or LEPC public contact. Information on federal reading rooms for RMPs is available.
Members of the general public can now access the Risk Management Public Data Tool. This tool increases access to RMP facility information and enables the public to more easily review certain chemical hazard information, such as names of regulated substances and associated safety and health information, accident history and emergency response information. The RMP data tool promotes environmental justice through increased availability of information.
A member of the general public may also submit an official FOIA request to obtain non-OCA RMP data. Information on how to submit a FOIA request is available at the following URL:
In addition, any person may contact a facility directly to request the facility's RMP information. However, facility owners and operators are not required to give their facilities' RMP information directly to the public.
Anyone may contact the RMP Reporting Center to inquire and receive a "yes" or "no" answer regarding whether a specific facility has submitted an RMP. The RMP Reporting Center can be reached at (703) 227-7650 or RMPRC@epacdx.net.
