Chemical Stockpile Emergency Preparedness Program
The Chemical Stockpile Emergency Preparedness Program (CSEPP) is a partnership between FEMA and the U.S. Department of the Army that provides emergency preparedness assistance and resources to communities surrounding the Army’s chemical warfare agent stockpiles.
Mission CSEPP
CSEPP’s mission is to “enhance existing local, installation, tribal, state and federal capabilities to protect the health and safety of the public, work force and environment from the effects of a chemical accident or incident involving the U.S. Army chemical stockpile.”
CSEPP protects people who live and work near installations with chemical stockpiles in the unlikely event of a chemical accident or incident. The Army is fulfilling its mission to eliminate aging chemical munitions and warfare materials in accordance with international treaties and national policy. To date, chemical stockpiles have been destroyed at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland; the Newport Chemical Depot, Indiana; Pine Bluff Arsenal, Arkansas; the Anniston Army Depot, Alabama, Umatilla Army Depot, Oregon, and the Deseret Chemical Depot, Utah. A stockpile on Johnston Atoll, an island in the Pacific Ocean, was also destroyed in 2000.

Background
In 1985, Congress (see DOD Authorization Act, 1986, Public Law 99-145) directed the Department of Defense (DOD) to dispose of its chemical agents and munitions while providing “maximum protection for the environment, the general public, and the personnel involved.” FEMA joined the Army in implementing CSEPP through a Memorandum of Understanding originally signed in August 1988 and most recently updated in March 2004. FEMA provides financial and technical support to State and local officials under a Cooperative Agreement with the State. FEMA support to the surrounding community continues until the Army completes the destruction of the associated installation’s stockpile.
