Toxic Chemical Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions
Revised 2000 Version
of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986)
Important Information*for*Keporting Year 1997
The following information updates or corrects the Forms and Instructions for 1997. No other changes or modifications have been made to the Forms or Instructions other than these listed here.
All references to reporting year 1997 and all other date related references have been changed to reflect the current reporting year, (i.e., reporting year 1996 has been changed to reporting year 1997; prior year 1995 was changed to prior year 1996, etc.) This change was made for both the Form R and the instructions.
The back side of the pages of the Form R include a box stating "This page intentionally left blank". Please do not copy double-sided.
Appendix A contains reporting instructions specific to Federal facilities who are required to report under Executive Order 12856. Further guidance for Federal facilities may be obtained from the EPCRA Hotline at 1800-535-0202.
The States and Regional contact list (Appen dices F and G) have been updated.
The Alternate Threshold provides eligible facilities with the option of submitting a simplified Form A on substitution of the full Form R report. The Form A has OMB # 2070-0143.
The Toxic Chemical List (Table II) has been updated for Reporting Year 1997 to include changes to the list that occurred since last year. EPA has removed two chemicals from the list, 2-bromo-2-nitropropane (bronopol) and 2,6-dimethylphenol. Also, based on a review of the OSHA carinogen status of the listed chemicals, the de minimis levels for three chemicals have been lowered from 1.0 to 0.1 percent. The chemicals with lower de minimis levels are: 2,4-dinitrotoluene, 2,6dinitrotoluene, and nitrobenzene.
Use of NAs in Section 8: Not applicable, "NA," can now be used in Section 8.1 through 8.7 to indicate that the waste man agement activity is not occurring either on site or off-site.
Two new disposal codes have been added to the list of codes applicable for Part II, section 6.2 of the Form R. These codes apply to metals and metal compounds.
Appendix H provides a list of Section 313 related materials (e.g., industry-specific guidance documents and information on how to order documents free of charge.)
The AFR97 software is now available in three versions: DOS, Windows 3.1 and Windows 95/NT. The DOS version (EPA 745-C-98001) is included in this package. The Win dows 3.1 version (EPA 745-C-98-002) and the Windows 95/NT version (EPA 745-C-98-003) are available upon request by calling (800) 490-9198 or mailing request to: USEPA/ NECPI, P.O. Box 42419 Cincinnati, OH 452422419, (800) 490-9198. To ensure that your request is filled properly, please use the EPA publication number (shown above) for the version that you are ordering.
All versions of the AFR97 software are available for downloading from the Internet (www.epa.gov/opptintr/afr). The Web site also contains additional information, such as Frequently Asked Questions, that may be helpful when using AFR.
AFR software will also be available on CDROM this year. The CD-ROM will contain all three versions of the AFR software (DOS, Windows 3.1 and Windows 95/NT); the complete TRI Reporting Form R and Instruc tions (this book); and UTIL 97 software that is useful for combining multiple TRI submis sions into a dBase file. The CD-ROM will be available by request from NECPI (800 4909198). Please request EPA 745-C-98-004 when ordering.
AFR97 software now generates the 5-page Form R and the 2-page Form A. (The 9-page form is no longer available.)
O The AFR software contains two new codes for Part II, Section 6.2, Column C: "M41-Solidification /Stabilization metals and metal compounds only" "M62 -Wastewater Treatment (Excluding POTW) - metals and metal compounds only"

Software to Computerize Form R Submissions
In 1987, the EPA developed a software package for reporting Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) submissions, as required under Section 313, Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 and the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990. The software is called Automated Form R or AFR.
AFR97 for DOS Features
Since 1987, the EPA has encouraged submission of TRI data on diskettes because electronic submissions significantly reduce errors. With electronic submissions, your data can also be loaded automatically into EPA's computers.
AFR97 for DOS can be used in DOS (version 5.0 or higher). WindowsTM 3.1, and Windows 95TM*
Advisory
The enclosed Automated Form R software, although reviewed for quality assurance, should be used with the understanding that all possible variations in the conditions of hardware and software configurations, as well as the data entered, cannot always be anticipated and may consequently have an effect on software use. Moreover, in an ongoing effort to keep pace with the advent oftechnological advances, development of new software may, on occasion, result in technical errors affecting use. Therefore, we recommend that software users thoroughly review their TRI submissions to ensure accuracy prior to sending them to EPA and the designated State Aeencv. Any problems, concerns or questions should be referred to Technical Support at (703) 816-4434.
Statement on Limitations of Warranty and Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency makes no warranty, express or implied, and accepts no liability for any damages, consequential or other (including without limitation, direct or indirect damages for personal injury, loss of business profits, business interruption, loss of business information, or any other pecuniary loss), concerning the use, attempted use, or application ofthe enclosed EPCRA Section 313 Automated Form R software.
We hope you will take this opportunity to submit your TRI reports on disk. If you have any questions, please call:
Technical Support (for AFR software support)
(703)816-4434*
8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time except Federal holidays
AFR97 for DOS can be installed on most Local Area Networks (LANs). We recommend that you contact your organization's LAN manager before installing software on the LAN drive.
AFR97 for DOS can be used to submit original submissions or revisions for any year beginning with Reporting Year 1991.
AFR97 for DOS works with most popular printer models.
Qualified submitters can use the two-page Form A.
Technical Support is available at (703) 816-4434.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
AFR97 for DOS is limited to 98 unique POTW listings and 98 transfers to off-sites, if you have more than 98 POTWs or more than 98 transfers, you will need to use AFR 97 for Windows. Please contact the Technical Support at (703) 816-4434 for more information.
* Please note that the EPCRA Hotline cannot respond to questions regarding AFR software use. All calls concerning AFR usage must be made to Technical Support.

Form R Submissions About AFR for DOS
AFR System Requirements
AFR for DOS software is designed for use in DOS and Windows environments. AFR for DOS is not a Windows application, but it can be accessed from
The enclosed Automated Form R (AFR) for DOS* software is supplied on one 3.5-inch, 1.44 MB (high-density) diskette in compressed format It must be installed before you can enter data. (High-density 5.25-inch diskettes are available from Technical Support) The hardware and software needed to run AFR are: IBM PC XT or 100%
compatible with 512 K of conventional memory;
Windows through AFR icons.
AFR can be installed on a LAN, but can only be accessed by one user at a time.
System Configuration
The system file CONFIG.SYS requires a minimum of FILES=61 and BUFFERS=30 to run the software, together with a line that increases environment space by 1024 bytes from its current value. The install program will check CONFIG.SYS, and request permission to make changes if necessary. For example, if you currently reserve a default value of 256 bytes for environment space, the install program will change CONFIG.SYS to read:

General Information
\ Reporting to theToxic ChemicalRelease Inventory (TRI) is required by section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA, or Title jjj of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization i Act of 1986), Public Law 99-499. The information contained in the Form R constitutes a "report," and the gubmission of a report to the appropriate authorities constitutes "reporting."
The Pollution Prevention Act, passed into law in Octo ber, 1990 (Pub. L. 101-508), added reporting requirej? ments to Form R. These requirements affect all facilities required to submit Form R under section 313 of EPCRA. & The data were required beginning with reports for calendar year 1991.
Reporting is required to provide the public with infor & mation on the releases of listed toxic chemicals in their
communities and to provide EPA with release informa tion to assist the Agency in determining the need for % future regulations. Facilities must report the quantities of both routine and accidental releases of listed toxic chemicals, as well as the maximum amount of the listed toxic chemical on-site during the calendar year and the amount contained in wastes managed on-site or trans' ferred off-site.
A.2 How to Assemble a Complete Report
A.2.a The Toxic Chemical Release Reporting Form, EPA Form R
EPA Form R consist of two parts:
Part I, Facility Identification Information (page 1); and
Part II, Chemical-Specific Information (pages 2-5).
Most of the information required in Part I of Form R can be completed, photocopied, and attached to each chemi cal-specific report. However, Part I of each Form R submitted must have an original signature on the certifi cation statement and the trade secret designation must be entered as appropriate. Part II must be completed sepa rately for each toxic chemical or chemical category. Be cause a complete Form R consists of at least 5 unique pages, any submission containing less than 5 unique pages in not a valid submission.
A complete report for any listed toxic chemical that is not claimed as a trade secret consists of the following com pleted parts:
A completed Form R or Form A must be submitted for each toxic chemical manufactured, processed, or other wise used at each covered facility as described in the ;; reporting rule in 40 CFR Part 372 (originally published February 16, 1988, in the Federal Register). These instructions supplement and elaborate on the require ments in the reporting rule. Together with the reporting rule, they constitute the reporting requirements. All references in these instructions are to sections in the ^reporting rule unless otherwise indicated.
tA.l Who Must Report
Section 313 of EPCRA requires that reports be filed by owners and operators of facilities that meet all of the following criteria.
Cl The facility has 10 or more full-time employees; and
The facility is included in Standard Industrial
Classification (SIC) Codes 20 through 39; and The facility manufactures (defined to include im porting), processes, or otherwise uses any listed toxic chemical in quantities greater than the estab lished threshold in the course of a calendar year.
Part I with an original signature on the certification statement (section 2); and
Part II (Note: Section 8 is mandatory).
Staple all 5 pages of each report together. If you check yes on Part II, Section 8.11, you may attach additional infor mation on pollution prevention activities at your facility.
A.2.b. The Alternate Toxic Chemical Release Inventory Form, EPA Form A
EPA Form A was established in 1994 as a simplified form of reporting based on an alternate threshold for facilities with low amounts of a listed toxic chemical in waste. The Form A serves as an alternate to Form R, such that completion of the Form A is in leu of Form R. Like the Form R described above, the Form A consists of two parts, but only consists of a total of 2 pages.
Part I, Facility Identification Information, which also includes the "certification" regarding the eligibility to use the Form A (page 1 and the top of page 2); and
Part II, Chemical Identification (the bottom of page 2).
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions 1
ABDOO129867
nn
As with Form R, most of the information in Part I of Form A can be completed, photocopied, and attached to each eligible chemical-specific report, as long as each Form A submitted has an original signature on the certification statement, and the appropriate trade secret designation for the form. Part II of the Form A must be completed separately for each toxic chemical or chemical category. A complete report for Form A consists of 2 pages for each submission.
A.3 Trade Secret Claims
For any toxic chemical whose identity is claimed as trade secret, you must submit to EPA two versions of the substantiation form as prescribed in 40 CFR Part 350, published July 29, 1988, in the Federal Register (53 FR 28772) as well as two versions of Form R or Form A. One set of forms, the "unsanitized" version, should provide the actual identity of the toxic chemical. The other set of forms, the "sanitized" version, should provide only a generic identity of the toxic chemical. If EPA deems the trade secret substantiation form valid, only the sanitized set of forms will be made available to the public.
Use the order form in this document to obtain copies of the rule and substantiation form. Further explanation of the trade secret provisions is provided in Part I, Sections 2.1 and 2.2, and Part II, Section 1.3, of the instructions.
Some states also require submission ofboth sanitized i unsanitized reports for toxic chemicals whose identity ] claimed as a trade secret. Others require only a sanit version. Facilities may jeopardize the trade secret stat of a toxic chemical by submitting an unsanitized versic of Form R or Form A to a state agency or Indian tribe I does not require unsanitized forms. You may identify; individual State's submission requirements by contac ing the appropriate state-designated Section 313 contac (see Appendix F).
A.4 Recordkeeping
Sound recordkeeping practices are essential for accurat and efficient TRI reporting. It is in the facility's interestl as well as EPA's, to maintain records properly.
Facilities must keep a copy of each report filed for at leasl three years from the date of submission. These reports! will be of use in subsequent years when completing] future reports.
Facilities must also maintain those documents, calcula tions, worksheets, and other forms upon which the relied to gather information for prior reports. In the event of a problem with data elements on a facility's Form R orl Form A, EPA may request documentation from the facil ity that supports the information reported.
In summary, a complete report to EPA for a toxic chemi cal claimed as a trade secret must include all of the following:
A completed "unsanitized" version of a Form R or Form A report including the toxic chemical identity (staple the pages together);
A sanitized version of a completed Form R or Form A report in which the toxic chemical iden tity items (Part II, Sections 1.1 and 1.2) have been left blank but in which a generic chemical name has been supplied (Part II, Section 1.3) (staple the pages together);
A completed "unsanitized" version of a trade secret substantiation form (staple the pages together); and
A sanitized version of a completed trade secret substantiation form (staple the pages together).
Securely fasten all four reports together.
2 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions
EPA may conduct data quality reviews of Form R or Form! A submissions. An essential component of this process! involves reviewing a facility's records for accuracy and! completeness.
Facilities should keep a record for those toxic chemicals? for which they did not file a Form even though they are] not required to.
A partial list of records, organized by year, that a facility] should maintain include:
Previous years' Form Rs and Form As; Section 313 Reporting Threshold Worksheets; Engineering calculations and other notes; Purchase records from suppliers; Inventory data; EPA (NPDES) permits and monitoring reports;; EPCRA Section 312, Tier II Reports; Monitoring records; Flowmeter data; Q RCRA Hazardous Waste Generator's Report; Pretreatment reports filed by the facility with

A.5 How to Prepare a Voluntary Revision of a Previous Submission
Voluntary revisions must be submitted by October 15th of the same year as the reporting deadline in order for the revised data to be included in the next TRI data release. Revisions should be submitted on a Form R or Form A identical to the version originally submitted to EPA for that reporting year. The Emergency Planning and Com munity Right-to-Know Information Hotline can help you identify the version of Form R or Form A used for each reporting year.
revised submissions. Do not resubmit a diskette contain ing all of your original submissions if you are only revis ing one or a few of them.
Where to Submit a VoluntaryRevision of a Pre vious Submission
Revisions should be submitted to EPA and the appropri ate state agency (or the designated official of an Indian tribe) to whom you submitted the original Form (see Section A.6).
Please note: submissions for the next reporting year are NOT considered revisions of the previous year's data.
A.6 When the Report Must be Submitted
There are two options for making voluntary revisions:
The first is to submit a photocopy of your original submission (from your file), with the corrections made in blue or black ink. Re-sign and re-date the certification statement on page 1. For revisions to 1990 and earlier reporting year submissions, write the words "VOLUN TARY REVISION" on page 1 of the Form. For revisions to 1991 and later reporting year submissions, on page 1 of the form, enter "X" in the space marked "Enter 'X' here if this is a revision."
The second option is to obtain a blank Form for the reporting year affected by the correction (s). Complete all data elements on this Form. Sign and date the certifica tion statement on page 1. For revisions to 1990 and earlier reporting year submissions, write the words "VOLUN TARY REVISION" on page 1 of the Form R. For revision to 1991 and later reporting year submissions, on page 1 of the form, enter "X" in the space marked "Enter 'X' here if this is a revision."
If you submitted your Form data on magnetic media, the EPA software allows you to revise your Form data and submit your revisions on magnetic media as well. The documentation provided with the magnetic media sub mission software contains specific instructions, or you may call the magnetic media User Support Hotline at (703) 816-4434. The USER Support Hotline number is to be used for the AFR Software and does not provide regulatory support. If you submitted your Form data using software developed by an EPA approved Form software developer, you must contact the software develper, to determine if the software you used allows for magnetic media revisions. Please be careful when submitting magnetic media revisions to resubmit only the
The report for any calendar year must be submitted on or before July 1 of the following year whether using Form R or Form A. Any voluntary revision to a report can be submitted anytime during the calendar year, for the current or any previous reporting year.
A.6a Where to Send the Forms
Submissions must be sent to both EPA and the State (or the designated official of an Indian tribe). If a Report is not received by both EPA and the State (or the designated official of an Indian tribe), the submitter is considered out of compliance and subject to enforcement action.
Send reports to EPA by regular mail to:
EPCRA Reporting Center P.O. Box 3348 Merrifield, VA 22116-3348 Attn: Toxic Chemical Release Inventory
Certified mail, Overnight mail and hand-delivered sub missions only should be addressed to:
EPCRA Reporting Center, c/o Computer Based Systems Inc. Suite 300 4600 North Fairfax Drive Arlington, VA 22203 (703) 816-4445
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and. Instructions 3
ABDOO129869
In addition, you must also send a copy of the report to the State in which the facility is located. ("State" also in cludes: the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the Northern Mariana Islands, and any other territory or possession over which the U.S. has jurisdic tion.) Refer to Appendix F for the appropriate State submission addresses.
Facilities located on Indian land should send a copy to the Chief Executive Officer of the applicable Indian tribe. Some tribes have entered into a cooperative agreement with States; in this case, report submissions should be sent to the entity designated in the cooperative agree ment.
Submission of section 313 reports in magnetic media and computer-generated facismile formats has been approved by EPA. EPA has developed a package called the "Toxic Chemical Release Inventory Reporting System". The easy-to-use diskettes come with complete instructions for their use (See "TRI Automated Form R (AFR) Software for Reporting Year 1997" and enclosed diskettes).

B. How to Determine If Your Facility Must Submit A Report
(See figure 1 for more information) Full-Time Employee Determination
B.2 Primary SIC Code Determination
A "full-time employee," for purposes of section 313 re porting, is defined as 2,000 work hours per year. The number of full-time employees is dependent only upon the totalnumberof hours worked by all employees for the facility during the calendar year and not the number of persons working. To determine the number of full-time employees working for your facility, add up the hours worked by all employees during the calendar year, in cluding contract employees and sales and support staff working for the facility, and divide the total by 2,000 hours. In other words, if the total number of hours worked by all employees is 20,000 hours or more, your facility meets the ten employee threshold.
Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes 20-39 are covered by the rule and are listed in Table 1. The first two digits ofa4-digit SIC code define a majorbusiness sector, while the last two digits denote a facility's specialty within the major sector. For a detailed description of 4digit SIC codes, refer to the "Standard Industrial Classifi cation Manual 1987." The facility should determine its own SIC code (s), based on its activities on-site, using the SIC Manual. State agencies and other organizations may assign SIC codes on a different basis than the one used by the SIC Manual. However, for purposes of TRI reporting, these state assigned codes should not be used if they differ from ones assigned using the SIC Manual.
Examples include:
A facility consists of 11 employees who each worked 1500 hours for the facility in a calendar year. Consequently, the total number of hours worked by all employees for the facility during the calendar year is 16,500 hours. The number of full-time employees for this facility is equal to 16,500 hours divided by 2,000 hours per full-time employee, or8.3 full-timeemployees. Therefore, even though 11 persons worked for this facility during the calendar year, the number of hours worked is equivalent to 8.3 full-time employees. This facility does not meet the employee criteria and is not subject to section 313 reporting.
Another facility consists of 6 workers and 3 sales staff. The 6 workers each worked 2,000 hours for the facility in the calendar year. The sales staff also each worked 2,000 hours in the calendaryear although they may have been on the road half of the year. In addition, 5 contract employees were hired for a period during which each worked 400 hours for the facility. The total number of hours is equal to the time worked by the workers at the facility (12,000 hours), plus the time worked by the sales staff for the facility (6,000 hours), plus the time worked by the contract employees at the facility (2,000 hours), or 20,000 hours. Divid ing the 20,000 hours by 2,000 yields 10 full-time employees. This facility has met the full time employee criteria and may be subject to report ing if the other criteria are met.
The EPCRA Hotline can assist facilities with determining which SIC codes are assigned for specific business activi ties as referenced in the SIC Manual. Clothbound edi tions of the SIC Manual are available in most major libraries or may be ordered through the National Techni cal Information Service, 5285 Port Royal Road, Springfield, VA 22161, (703) 605-6000. The access number for the clothbound manual is PB87-100012, and the price is $30.00.
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), is a new economic classification system that will replace the 1987 SIC Code system. EPA will address the SIC code change, as it relates to EPCRA in an upcom ing Federal Register notice. This upcoming change does NOT affect the 1997 EPCRA section 313 reporting.
B.2.a Multi-Establishment Facilities
Your facility may include multiple establishments that have different SIC codes. A multi-establishment facility is a facility that consists of two or more distinct and separate economic units. If your facility is a multi establishment facility, calculate the value of the products produced or shipped from each establishment within the facility and then use the following rule to determine if your facility meets the SIC code criterion:
O If the total value of the products shipped from or produced at establishments with primary SIC codes between 20 and 39 is greater than 50 per cent of the value of the entire facility's products and services, the entire facility meets the SIC code criterion.

Determining Appl'cability f Section 313 Requiremen
6, Toxi.c R,,el,ease I,nvent,ory R_ epor.t.ing rcunrms and Instructions
ABDOO129872
p If any one establishment with a primary SIC code between 20 and 39 produces or ships products whose value exceeds the value of products and services produced or shipped by any other estab lishment within the facility, the facility also meets the SIC code criterion.
The value ofproduction attributable to a particular estab lishment may be isolated by subtracting the product value obtained from other establishments within the same facility from the total product value of the facility. This procedure eliminates the potential for "doublecount ing" production in situations where establishments are engaged in sequential production activities at a single facility.
A covered multi-establishment facility must make toxic chemical threshold determinations and, if required, must report all relevant information about releases, source reduction, recycling, and waste managment activities associated with a listed toxic chemical for the entire facility, even from establishments that are not in SIC codes 20-39. EPA realizes, however, that certain estab lishments in a multi-establishment facility can be, for all practical purposes, separate business units. Therefore, individual establishments may report releases and other waste management activities separately, provided that the total releases for the whole facility is represented by the sum of the quantities and other quantities managed as waste reported by the separate establishments and the compliance determination is based on the entire facility.
Examples include:

your facility directly from a source outside of the United States. By ordering the chemical, you have "caused it to be imported/' even though you may have used an import brokerage firm as an agent to obtain the toxic chemical.
Do Not Overlook Coincidental Manufacture
The term manufacture also includes coincidental produc tion of a toxic chemical (e.g., as a byproduct or impurity) as a result of the manufacture, processing, otherwise use, or treatment of other chemical substances. In the case of coincidental production of an impurity (i.e., a toxic chemi cal that remains in the product that is distributed in commerce), the de minimis exemption, discussed in Sec tion B.4.b of these instructions, applies. The de minimis exemption does not apply to byproducts (e.g., a toxic chemical that is separated from a process stream and further processed or disposed). Certain listed toxic chemi cals may be manufactured as a result of wastewater treatment or other treatment processes. For example, neutralization of acid wastewater can result in the coinci dental manufacture of ammonium nitrate (solution).
Process: The term "process" means the preparation of a listed section 313 chemical, after its manufacture, for distribution in commerce. Processing is usually the in tentional incorporation of a section 313 chemical into a product (see Part D, Section 3.2 of these instructions for further clarification). Processing includes preparation of the toxic chemicals in the same physical state or chemical form as that received by your facility, or preparation that produces a change in physical state or chemical form. The term also applies to the processing of a mixture or other trade name product (see Section B.4.b of these instruc tions) that contains a listed section 313 chemical as one component.
Example 1: Coincidental Manufacture
Your company, a nitric acid manufacturer, uses aque ous ammonia in a waste treatmentsystem to neutralize an acidic wastewater stream containing nitric acid. The reaction of ammonia and nitric acid produces a solution of ammonium nitrate. Ammonium nitrate is reportable under the nitrate compounds category and is manufactured as a byproduct. If the ammonium nitrate is produced in a quantity that exceeds the 25,000 pound manufacturing threshold, the facility must report under the nitrate compounds category.
The aqueous ammonia is considered to be otherwise used and 10% of the total aqueous ammonia would be counted towards the 10,000 pound use threshold. Reports for releases of ammonia must also include 10% of the total aqueous ammonia from the solution of ammonium nitrate (see the qualifier for the ammonia listing).
Combustion of coal and/or fuel in boilers/fumaces can result in the coincidental manufacture of metal compounds and sulfuric acid (acid aerosols), hydro chloric acid (acid aerosols) and hydrogen fluoride.
Otherwise Use: The term "otherwise use" encompasses any activity involving a listed toxic chemical at a facility that does not fall under the definitions of "manufacture" or "process." A chemical that is otherwise used by a facility is not intentionally incorporated into a product distributed in commerce (see Part II, Section 3.3 of these Instructions for further clarification).
Example 2: Typical Process and Manufacture Activities
Your company receives toluene, a listed section 313 chemical, from another facility, and reacts the toluene with air to form benzoic acid, which the company distributes in commerce. Your company processes toluene and manufactures and processes benzoic acid. Benzoic acid, however, is not a listed section 313 chemical and thus does not trigger reporting requirements.
Your facility combines toluene purchased from a supplier with various materials to form paint. Your facility processes toluene.
Your company receives a nickel compound (nickel compounds is a listed section 313 chemical category) as a bulk solid and performs various size-reduction operations (e.g., grinding) before packaging the compound in 50 pound bags, which the company sells. Your company processes the nickel compound.
Your company receives a prepared mixture of resin and chopped fiber to be used in the injection molding of plastic products. The resin contains a listed section 313 chemical that becomes incorporated into the plastic, which the company distributes in commerce. Your facility processes the toxic chemical.

ABDOO129874
Example 3: Otherwise Use
VVhen your facility cleans equipment with toluene, you are otherwise using toluene. Your facility also sepa rates two components of a mixture by dissolving one component in toluene, and subsequently recovers the toluene from the process for reuse or disposal. Your facility otherwise uses toluene.
B.3.b Activity Exemptions
Otherwise Use Exemptions. Certain otherwise uses of listed section 313 chemicals are specifically exempted:
0 otherwise use as a structural component of the facility;
0 otherwise use in routine janitorial or facility grounds maintenance;
personal uses by employees or other persons; otherwise use of products containing toxic chemi
cals for the purpose of maintaining motor ve hicles operated by the facility; or otherwise use of toxic chemicals contained in intake water (used for processing or non-contact cooling) or in intake air (used either as com pressed air or for combustion).
The exemption of otherwise use of a chemical 1) as a structural component of the facility; or 2) in routine jani torial or facility grounds maintenance; or 3) for personal use by an employee cannot be taken for activities involv ing process-related equipment.
release and other waste management determinations. The exemption applies when the facility receives the article from another facility or when the facility produces the article itself. The exemption applies only to the quantity of toxic chemical present in the article. If the toxic chemical is manufactured (including imported), processed, other otherwise used at the covered facility other than as part of the article, in excess of an applicable threshold quantity, the facility is required to report (40 CFR Section 372.38(b)). For a toxic chemical in an item to be exempt as part of the article, the item must meet all the following criteria in the Section 313 article definition; that is, it must be a manufactured item that is formed to a specific shape or design during manufacture, that has end use functions dependent in whole or in part upon its shape or design during end use, and that does not release a toxic chemical under normal circumstances of process ing or otherwise use of the item at the facility.
If the processing or otherwise use of all like manufactured items at a facility results in a total release of 0.5 pounds or less of a toxic chemical in a reporting year to any environ mental media, EPA will allow this release to be rounded to zero, and the manufactured items remain exempt as articles. EPA requires facilities to round off and report all estimates to the nearest whole number. The 0.5-pound limit does not apply to each individual article, but applies to the sum ofall releases from processing or otherwise use of all like articles. If all the releases of like articles over a reporting year are completely captured and sent for recycling/reuse on-site or off-site, the items may remain exempt as articles. Any amount that is released and is not recycled/reused will count toward the 0.5 pound per year cut-off value.
Article Exemption. Listed toxic chemicals contained in articles that are processed or otherwise used at a covered facilitiy are exempt from threshold determinations and
Example 4: Article Exemption
Q Lead that is incorporated into a lead acid battery is processed to manufacture the battery, and therefore must be counted toward threshold determinations and release and other waste management determinations. However, the use of the lead acid battery elsewhere in the facility does not have to be counted. Disposal of the battery after its use does not constitute a "release;" thus, the battery remains an article.
^ If an item used in the facility is fragmented, the item is still an article if those fragments being discarded remain identifiable as the article (e.g., recognizable pieces of a cylinder, pieces of wire). For instance, an 8foot piece of wire is broken into two 4-foot pieces of wire, without releasing any toxic chemicals. Each 4foot piece is identifiable as a piece of wire; therefore, the article status for these pieces of wire remains intact.
^ Toxic chemicals received in the form of pellets are not articles because the pellet form is simply a convenient form for further processing of the material.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions 9
ABDOO129875
The article exemption applies to the normal processing or otherwise use of an article. This exemption does not apply to the manufacture of the article. Toxic chemicals processed into articles produced at a facility must be factored into threshold and release determinations.
If, as a result of processing or otherwise use, an item retains its initial thickness or diameter, in whole or in part, it meets the first part of the definition. If the item's basic dimensional characteristics are totally altered dur ing processing or otherwise use, the item does not meet the first part of the definition. An example of items that do not meet the definition would be items which are cold extruded, such as lead ingots which are formed into wire or rods. On the other hand, cutting a manufactured item into pieces which are recognizable as the article would not change the orginial dimensions as long as the diam eter or the thickness of the item remained the same; the article exemption would continue to apply. Metal wire may be bent and sheet metal may be cut, punched, stamped, or pressed without losing their article status as long as the diameter of the wire or tubing or the thickness of the sheet are not totally changed.
An important aspect of the article exemption is what constitutes a release of a toxic chemcal. Any processing or otherwise use of an article that results in a release to the environment (of more than 0.5 pounds) negates the ex emption. Cutting, grinding, melting, or other processing of a manufactured item could result in a release of a toxic chemical during normal conditions of processing or oth erwise use and therefore, negate the exemption as an article. Scrap pieces which are recognizable as an article do not constitute a release.
De Minimis Exemption. The de minimis exemption allows facilities to disregard certain minimal concentra tions of chemicals in mixtures or trade name products they process or otherwise use when making threshold determinations and release and other waste management determinations. The de minimis exemption does not ap ply to the manufacture of a toxic chemical except if that toxic chemical is manufactured as an impurity and re mains in the product distributed in commerce, or if the toxic chemical is imported below the appropriate de minimis level. The de minimis exemption does not apply to a byproduct manufactured coincidentally as a result of manufacturing, processing, otherwise use, or any waste management activities.
When determining whether the de minimis exemption applies to a listed toxic chemical, the owner/operator should consider only the concentration of the toxic chemi cal in mixtures and trade name products in process streams in which the toxic chemical is undergoing a reportable activity. If the toxic chemical in a process
stream is manufactured as an impurity, imported, pro cessed, or otherwise used and is below the appropriate de minimis concentration level, then the quantity of the toxic chemical in that process stream does not have to be applied to threshold determinations nor included in re lease or other waste management determinations. If a toxic chemical in a process stream is below the appropri ate de minimis level, all releases and other waste manage ment activities associated with the toxic chemical in that stream are exempt from EPCRA Section 313 reporting. It is possible to meet an activity (e.g., processing) threshold for a toxic chemical on a facility-wide basis, but not be required to calculate releases or other waste management quantities associated with a particular process because that process involves only mixtures or trade name prod ucts containing the toxic chemical below the de minimis level.
Once a toxic chemical concentration is above the appro priate de minimis level in the process stream, threshold determinations and release and other waste management determinations must be made, even if the chemical later falls below the de minimis level in the same process stream. Thus, all releases and other quantities managed as waste that occur after the de minimis level has been exceeded are subject to reporting. If a toxic chemical in a mixture or trade name product above de minimis is brought on-site, the de minimis exemption never applies.
The 0.1% de minimis levels are dictated by determina tions made by the National Toxicology Program (NTP), Annual Report on Carcinogens, the International Agency for Research and Cancer (IARC) Monographs, or 29 CFR part 1910, subpart Z. Therefore, once a chemical's status under NTP, IARC, or 29 CFR part 1910, subpart Z indi cates that the chemical is a carcinogen or potential car cinogen, the reporting facility may disregard levels of the chemical below the 0.1% de minimis concentration pro vided that the other criteria for the de minimis exemption is met. De minimis levels for chemical categories apply to the total concentration of all chemicals in the category within a mixture, not the concentration of each individual category member within the mixture.
De Minimis Application to the Processing or Othenuise Use of a Mixture
The de minimis exemption applies only to the processing or otherwise using, of a listed toxic chemical in a mixture. Threshold and release calculations begin at the point where the chemical exceeds de minimis. If a listed toxic chemical is present in a mixture at a concentration below the de minimis level, this quantity of the substance does not have to be included for threshold determination,
10 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions
ABDOO129876
release and other waste management reporting, or sup plier notification requirements. The exemption will ap ply as long as the mixture containing de minimis amounts of a toxic chemical never goes above the de minimis limit. Also, see below the two examples in which a manufactur ing activity would qualify for the de minimis exemption.
Examples of Process and Otherwise Use Scenarios
There are many cases in which the de minimis "limit" is crossed or recrossed within a process or otherwise use scenario. The following examples are meant to illuminate these complex reporting scenarios.
Example of Increasing Process Concentration to Above De minimis Levels
A manufacturing facility receives toluene which contains less than the de minimis concentration of chlorobenzene. Through distillation, the chlorobenzene content in pro cess streams is increased over the de minimis concentra tion of 1 percent. From the point at which the chlorobenzene concentration exceeds 1 percent in pro cess streams, the amount present must be factored into threshold determinations and release and other waste management estimates. The facility does not need to consider the amount of chlorobenzene in the raw mate rial, i.e., when below de minimis levels, when making threshold determinations. The facility does not have to report emissions of chlorobenzene from storage tanks or any other equipment where the chlorobenzene content is less than 1 percent.
The average concentration above de minimis is 1.1%. 2,000,000 x 0.011 manganese = 22,000 lbs manganese (below threshold)
In this example, because the facility's information per taining to the toxic chemical is available to two significant figures, the facility used 0.99 to determine the amount of the toxic chemical below the de minimis level. If the facility has information pertaining to the chemical that is available only to one significant figure, the facility should use 0.9.
De Minimis Application in the Manufacture of the Listed Chemical in a Mixture
The de minimis exemption generally does not apply to the manufacturing of a toxic chemical. The de minimis exemption may apply to mixtures and trade name prod ucts containing toxic chemicals that are imported into the United States. Another exception applies to toxic chemi cals that are coincidentally manufactured as impurities that remain in the product distributed in commerce at below the de minimis levels. The amount remaining in the product is exempt from threshold determinations. If the chemical is separated from the final product, thereby classifying the chemical as a byproduct, it cannot qualify for the exemption. Any amount that is separated, or is separate, from the product, is considered a byproduct and is subject to threshold determinations and release and other waste management estimates. Any amount of a toxic chemical that is manufactured in a wastestream must be accounted for on Form R.
Example of Fluctuating Process Concentration
Example of Coincidental Manufacture as a Product Impurity
A manufacturer produces an ink product which contains toluene, a listed toxic chemical below the de minimis level. The process used causes the percentage of toluene in the mixture to fluctuate: it rises above the de minimis level for a time but drops below the level as the process winds down. The facility must consider the chemical toward threshold determinations from the point at which it first exceeds the de minimis limit. Once the de minimis limit has been crossed the exemption cannot be taken.
Example ofConcentration Levels that Straddle the De Minimis Level
Toluene 2,4-diisocyanate reacts with water to form trace quantities of 2,4-diaminotoiuene. The resulting product contains 99 percent toluene 2,4-diisocyanate and 0.05 percent 2,4-diaminotoluene. The 2,4-diaminotoluene would not be subject to Section 313 reporting nor would supplier notification be required because the concentra tion of 2,4-diaminotoluene is below its de minimis con centration of 0.1 percent in the product. Coincidental manufacture/production refers only to production of a chemical via a chemical reaction. It would not include separation of a byproduct from a purchased mixture during a processing operation.
A facility processes 9,500,000 lbs. of mixtures containing 0.25-1.2% manganese. Manganese is subject to 1% de mlmmis concentration exemption. The amount of mixhue subject to reporting is:
9,500,000 x (1.2-0.99) / (1.2-0.25) = 2,000,000 lbs. non-exempt mixture
Example of Coincidental Manufacture as a Commercial Byproduct and Impurity
Chloroform is a reaction byproduct in the production of carbon tetrachloride. It is removed by distillation to a concentration of less than 150 ppm (0.0150%) remaining in the carbon tetrachloride. The separated chloroform at

Step 2 is intended for use when one form or use of the toxic chemical is exempt while other forms require reporting. Note the type of exemption for future reference. Also identify, if applicable, the fraction or percentage of the toxic chemical present that is exempt, Add the amounts in each activity to obtain a subtotal for exempted amounts of the toxic chemical or chemical categories at the facility.
Step 3 involves subtracting the result of Step 2 from the results of Step 1 for each activity. Compare this net sum to the applicable activity threshold. If the threshold is met or exceeded for any of the three activities, a facility must submit a Form R for that toxic chemical or chemical category. This worksheet should be retained in either case to document your determination for reporting or not reporting, but should not be submitted with the report. Do not sum quantities of the toxic chemical that are manufactured, processed, and otherwise used at your facility, because each of these activities requires a sepa rate threshold determination. For example, if in a calen dar year you processed 20,000 pounds of a chemical and you otherwise used 6,000 pounds of that same toxic chemical, your facility has not met or exceeded any applicable threshold and thus is not required to report for that chemical.
You must submit a report if you exceed any threshold for any listed toxic chemical or chemical category. For ex ample, if your facility processes 22,000 pounds of a listed toxic chemical and also otherwise uses 16,000 pounds of that same toxic chemical, it has exceeded the otherwise use threshold (10,000 pounds) and your facility must report even though it did not exceed the process thresh old. However, in preparing your reports, you must consider all non-exempted activities and all releases of the toxic chemical from your facility, not just releases from the otherwise use activity.
Also note that threshold determinations are based upon the actual amounts of a toxic chemical manufactured, processed, or otherwise used over the course of the calen dar year. The threshold determination may not relate to the amount of a toxic chemical brought on-site during the calendar year. For example, if a stockpile of 100,000 pounds of a toxic chemical is present on-site but only 20,000 pounds is applied to a process, only the 20,000 pounds processed is counted toward a threshold deter mination, not the entire 100,000 pounds of the stockpile.
ates a refrigeration unit that contains 15,000 pounds of! anhydrous ammonia at the beginning of the year. The! system is charged with 2,000 pounds of anhydrous am-! monia during the year. The facility has therefore "other-! wise used" only 2,000 pounds of the covered toxic chemical! and is not required to report (unless there are otheri "otherwise use" activities of ammonia which, when takeiri together, exceed the reporting threshold). If, however I the whole refrigeration unit was recharged with 15,000^ pounds of anhydrous ammonia during the year, the| facility would exceed the otherwise use threshold, and be] required to report.
This does not apply to toxic chemicals "recycled" off-site^ and returned to a facility. Such toxic chemicals returned to a facility are treated as the equivalent of newly pur-` chased material for purposes of section 313 threshold determinations.
Threshold Determinations for Ammonia.
The listing for ammonia now includes the modifier "in cludes anhydrous ammonia and aqueous ammonia from water dissociable ammonium salts and other sources; 10 percent of total aqueous ammonia is reportable under this listing". The qualifer for ammonia means that anhydrous1' forms of ammonia are 100 percent reportable and aque ous forms are limited to 10 percent of total aqueous ammonia. Therefore, when determining threshold quan tities, 100 percent of anhydrous ammonia is included but only 10 percent of total aqueous ammonia is included. If any ammonia evaporates from aqueous ammonia solu tions, 100 percent of the evaporated ammonia is included in threshold determinations.
For example, if a facility processes aqueous ammonia it has processed 100 percent of the aqueous ammonia in that solution. If the ammonia remains in solution, then 10% of the total aqueous ammonia is counted towards threshold. If there are any evaporative losses of anhydrous ammo nia, then 100 percent of those losses must be counted towards the processing threshold. If the manufacturing, processing, or otherwise use threshold for the ammonia listing are exceeded, the facility must report 100 percent of! these evaporative losses in Sections 5 and 8 of the Form R-;
Threshold Determinations for Chemical Categories.
Threshold Determinations for On-Site Reuse Operations.
Threshold determinations of listed toxic chemicals that are reused at the facility are based only on the amount of the toxic chemical that is added during the year, not the total volume in the system. For example, a facility oper-
A number of chemical compound categories are subject to reporting. See Table II for a listing of these toxic chemicab categories. When reporting for one of these toxic cherniy cal categories, all individual members of a category that are manufactured, processed, or otherwise used must be counted. However, threshold determinations must be made separately for each of the three activities. Do not

Example 5: Mixture and Trade Name Products Scenario #1: Your facility uses 12,000 pounds of an industrial solvent (Solvent X) for equipment cleaning. The Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for the solvent indicates that it contains at least 50 percent methyl ethyl ketone MEK), a listed toxic chemical; however, it also states that the solvent contains 20 percent non-hazardous surfactants. This is the only MEK-containing chemical used at the facility. Follow these steps to determine if the quantity of the toxic chemical in solvent X exceeds the threshold for otherwise use. 1) Determine a reasonable maximum concentration for the toxic chemical by subtracting out the non-
hazardous surfactants (i.e., 100%-20% - 80%). 2) Determine the midpoint between the known minimum (50%) and the reasonable maximum calculated
above (i.e., (80%-50%)/2 + 50% = 65%). 3) Multiply total weight of Solvent X otherwise used by 65 percent (0.65).
12.000 pounds x 0.65 = 7,800 pounds 4) Because the total amount of MEK otherwise used at the facility was less than the 10,000 pound otherwise
use threshold, the facility is not required to file a Form R for MEK. Scenario #2: Your facility otherwise used 15,000 pounds of Solvent Y to clean printed circuit boards. The MSDS for the solvent lists only that Solvent Y contains at least 80 percent of a listed toxic chemical which is only identified as chlorinated hydrocarbons. Follow these steps to determine if the quantity of the toxic chemical in solvent exceeds the threshold for otherwise use. 1) Because the specific chemical is unknown, the Form R will be filed for "chlorinated hydrocarbons." This
name will be entered into Part II, Section 2.1, "Mixture Component Identity." (Note: Because your supplier is claiming the toxic chemical identity a trade secret, you do not have to file substantiation forms.) 2) The upper bound limit is assumed to be 100 percent and the lower bound limit is known to be 80 percent. Using this information, the specific concentration is estimated to be 90 percent (i.e., the mid-point between upper and lower limits). (100%+80%)/2=90% 3) The total weight of Solvent Y is multiplied by 90 percent (0.90) when calculating for thresholds. 15.000 x 0.90 = 13,500 4) Because the total amount of chlorinated hydrocarbons exceeds the 10,000 pound otherwise used threshold, you must file a Form R for this chemical.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions 15
ABDOO129881
include in these threshold determinations for a category any chemicals that are also specifically listed section 313 toxic chemicals (see Table II) or specific toxic chemicals that have been deleted from the category (e.g., a class of copper phthalocyanine compounds has been deleted from the copper compounds category). Specifically listed toxic chemicals are subject to their own, individual thresh old determination.
Threshold determinations for metal-containing com pounds present a special case. If, for example, your facility processes several different lead compounds, base your threshold determination on the total weight of all lead compounds processed. However, if your facility processes both the "parent" metal (lead) as well as one or more lead compounds, you must make threshold deter minations for both because they are separately listed toxic chemicals. If your facility exceeds thresholds for both the parent metal and compounds of that same metal, EPA allows you to file one combined report (e.g., one report for lead compounds, including lead) because the release information you will report in connection with metal compounds will be the total pounds of the parent metal released. If you file one combined report, you must put either the name of the metal or the name of the metal compound category on the Form R. Do not put both names on the Form R.
B.4.b Mixtures and Trade Name Products
Toxic chemicals contained in mixtures and trade nam products must be factored into threshold determinatioand release and other waste management determine tions.
If your facility processed or otherwise used mixtures o trade name products during the calendar year, you are required to use the best information available to deter mine whether the components of a mixture are above the de minimis concentration and, therefore, must be ineluded in threshold and release determinations. If you know that a mixture or trade name product contains a specific toxic chemical, combine the amount of the toxic chemical irv the mixture or trade name product with other amounts of the same toxic chemical processed or other wise used at your facility for threshold and release deter minations. If you know that a mixture contains a toxic chemical but no concentration information is provided by the supplier, you do not have to consider the amount of the toxic chemical present in that mixture for purposes of threshold and release determinations.
Observe the following guidelines in estimating concen trations of toxic chemicals in mixtures when only limited information is available:
The case of metal compounds involving more than one metal should be noted. Some metal compounds may contain more than one listed metal. For example, lead chromate is both a lead compound and a chromium compound. In such cases, if applicable thresholds are exceeded, you are required to file two separate reports, one for lead compounds and one for chromium com pounds. Apply the total weight of the lead chromate to the threshold determinations for both lead compounds and chromium compounds. However, only the amount of each parent metal released (not the amount of the compound) would be reported on the appropriate sections of both Form Rs.
Q Q o
Nitrate Compounds (water dissociable; reportable only when in aqueous solution). For the category nitrate compounds (water dissociable; reportable only when in aqueous solution), the entire weight of the nitrate com pound is counted towards the threshold. A nitrate compound is covered by this listing only when in water and only if dissociated. If no information is available on the identity of the type of nitrate that is manufactured processed or otherwise used, assume that the nitrate compound exists as sodium nitrate.
Q Q
If you know the lower and upper bound concen trations of a toxic chemical in a mixture, use the midpoint of these two concentrations for thresh old determinations.
If you know only the lower bound concentration, you should subtract out the percentages of any other known components to determine a reason able upper bound concentration, and then deter mine a midpoint.
If you have no information other than the lower bound concentration, calculate a midpoint as suming an upper bound concentration of 100 percent.
If you only know the upper bound concentration, you must use it for threshold determinations.
In cases where you only have a concentration range available, you should use the midpoint of the range extremes.

Release and Other Waste Management Determinations for Metals, Metal Com pounds, and Nitrate Compounds (wa ter dissociable; reportable only when in aqueous solution)
Metal Compounds. Although the complete weight of the metal compound must be used for threshold determinations for the metal compound categories, for release and other waste manage ment determinations, only the parent metal por tion of the metal compound must be considered. Remember that for metal compounds that con sist of more than one metal, release and other waste management reporting must be made for each metal, provided that the appropriate thresh olds have been exceeded.
Metals and Metal Compounds. As stated above, for metal compounds only the metal portion of the metal compound should be considered in determining release and other waste manage ment quantities for the metal compound catego ries. Therefore, if thresholds are separately exceeded for the "parent" metal and its com pounds. EPA allows you to file a combined Form R for the "parent" metal and its compounds. This Form R would contain all of the release and other waste management information for both the "par ent" metal and metal portion of the related metal compounds. For example, you exceed thresh olds for chromium. You also exceed thresholds for chromium compounds. Instead of filing two Form Rs you can file one combined Form R. This Form R would contain information on quantities of chromium released or otherwise managed as waste and the quantities of the chromium por tion of the chromium compounds released or otherwise managed as waste. Note that this does not apply to the Form A. See the section in these instructions on the Form A.
Nitrate Compounds (water dissociable; reportable only in aqueous solution). Although the complete weight of the nitrate compound must be used for threshold determinations for the nitrate compounds category, forrelease and other waste management determinations only the ni trate portion of the compound must be consid ered.

4.2 Full or Partial Facility Indication
A covered facility must report all releases and otherwaste management activities and source reduction activities of a listed toxic chemical if it meets a reporting threshold for that toxic chemical. However, if the facility is composed of several distinct establishments, EPA allows these es tablishments to submit separate reports for the toxic chemical as long as all releases and other waste manage ment activites of the toxic chemical from the entire facility are accounted for. Indicate in Section 4.2 whether your report is for the entire covered facility as a whole or for part of a covered facility.
18 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions
ABDOO129884
Section 313 requires reports by "facilities," which are defined as "all buildings, equipment, structures, and ther stationary items which are located on a single site or nn contiguous or adjacent sites and which are owned or ' operated by the same person."
The SIC code system defines business "establishments" as "distinct and separate economic activities [that] are oerformed at a single physical location." Under section 372.30(c) of the reporting rule, you may submit a separate Form R for each establishment, or for groups of establish ments in your facility, provided all releases and other waste management activities and source reduction ac tivities involving the toxic chemical from the entire facil ity are reported. This allows you the option of reporting separately on the activities involving a toxic chemical at each establishment, or group of establishments (e.g., part of a covered facility), rather than submitting a single Form R for that toxic chemical for the entire facility. However, if an establishment or group of establishments does not manufacture, process, or otherwise use or re lease or otherwise manage as waste a toxic chemical, you do not have to submit a report for that establishment or group of establishments. (See also Section B.2a of these instructions.)
4.3 Technical Contact
Enter the name and telephone number (including area code) of a technical representative whom EPA or State officials may contact for clarification of the information reported on Form R. This contact person does not have to be the same person who prepares the report or signs the certification statement and does not necessarily need to be someone at the location of the reporting facility; how ever, this person must be familiar with the details of the report so that he or she can answer questions about the
ormation provided.
4.4 Public Contact
Enter the name and telephone number (including area code) of a person who can respond to questions from the public about the report. If you choose to designate the sanie person as both the technical and the public contact, you may enter "Same as Section 4.3" in this space. This contact person does not have to be the same person who prepares the report or signs the certification statement ^d does not necessarily need to be someone at the location of the reporting facility. If this space is left blank,
technical contact will be listed as the public contact in TRI database.
4.5 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code
Enter the appropriate 4-digit primary Standard Indus trial Classification (SIC) code for your facility. Table I lists the SIC codes within the 20-39 range. If the report covers more than one establishment, enter the primary 4-digit SIC code for each establishment starting with the primary SIC code for the entire facility. You are required to enter SIC codes only for those establishments within the facili ties that fall within SIC codes 20 to 39. If you do not know your SIC code, consult the 1987 SIC Manual (see pg. 5).
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), is a new economic classification system that will replace the 1987 SIC code system. EPA will address the SIC code change, as it relates to EPCRA, in an upcom ing Federal Register notice. This upcoming change does NOT affect the 1997 EPCRA section 313 reporting.
4.6 Latitude and Longitude
Enter the latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates of your facility. Sources of these data include EPA permits (e.g., NPDES permits), county property records, facility blue prints, and site plans. Instructions on how to determine these coordinates can be found in Appendix E. Enter only numerical data. Do not preface numbers with letters such as N or W to denote the hemisphere.
Latitude and longitude coordinates of your facility are very important for pinpointing the location of reporting facilities and are required elements on the Form R. EPA encourages facilities to make the best possible measure ments when determining latitude and longitude. As with any other data field, missing, suspect, or incorrect data may generate a Notice of Technical Error to be issued to the facility. (See Appendix C: Common Errors in Com pleting Form R Reports).
4.7 Dun and Bradstreet Number
Enter the 9-digit number assigned by Dun and Bradstreet (D & B) for your facility or each establishment within your facility. These numbers code the facility for financial purposes. This number may be available from your facility's treasurer or financial officer. You can also obtain the numbers from your local Dun and Bradstreet office (check the telephone book White Pages). If a facility does not subscribe to the D & B service, a "support number" can be obtained from the Dun & Bradstreet center located in Allentown, Pennsylvania, at (610) 882-7748 (8:30 am to 8:00 pm. Eastern Time). If none of your establishments has been assigned a D & B number, enter not applicable, NA, in box (a). If only some of your establishments have been assigned Dun and Bradstreet numbers, enter those numbers in Part I, section 4.7.

4.9 NPDES Permit Number
Enter the numbers of any permits your facility holds under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination Sys tem (NPDES) even if the permit(s) do not pertain to the toxic chemical being reported. This 9-character permit number is assigned to your facility by EPA or the State under the authority of the Clean Water Act. If your facility does not have a permit, enter not applicable, NA, in Section 4.9a.
4.10 Underground Injection Well Code (UIC) Identification Number
If your facility has a permit to inject a waste containing the toxic chemical into Class 1 deep wells, enter the 12-digit Underground Injection Well Code (UIC) identification number assigned by EPA or by the State under the authority of the Safe Drinking Water Act. If your facility does not hold such a permit(s), enter not applicable, NA, inSection4.10a. You are only required to provide the UIC number for wells that receive the toxic chemical being reported.
Section 5. Parent Company Information
You must provide information on your parent company. For purposes of Form R, a parent company is defined as the highest level company, located in the United States, that directly owns at least 50 percent of the voting stock of your company. If your facility is owned by a foreign entity, enter not applicable, NA, in this space. Corporate names should be treated as parent company names for companies with multiple facility sites. For example, the Bestchem Corporation is not owned or controlled by any other corporation but has sites throughout the country whosenames begin with Bestchem. In this case, Bestchem Corporation would be listed as the parent company. Note that a facility that is a 50:50 joint venture is its own parent company.
Enter the name of the corporation or other business entity' that is your ultimate US parent company. If your facility has no parent company, check the NA box.
5.2 Parent Company's Dun & Bradstreet Number

Example 6: Mixture Containing Unidentified Toxic Chemical
Your facility uses 20,000 pounds of a solvent that your supplier has told you contains 80 percent "chlorinated aromatic," their generic name for a toxic chemical subject to reporting under section 313. You therefore know that you have used 16,000 pounds of some listed toxic chemi cal which exceeds the "otherwise use" threshold. You would file a Form R and enter the name "chlorinated aromatic" in the space provided in Part II, Section 2.
EPA requests that the toxic chemical, chemical category, or generic name also be placed in the box marked "Chemi cal, Category, or Generic Name" in the upper right-hand comer on all pages of Form R. While this space is not a required data element, providing this information will help you in preparing a complete Form R report.
1.3 Generic Chemical Name
Ifyou are making a trade secret claim, youmust report the CAS number or category code on your unsanitized Form R and unsanitized substantiation form. Do not include the CAS number or category code on your sanitized Form R or sanitized substantiation form.
1.2 Toxic Chemical or Chemical Category Name
Complete Section 1.3 only if you are claiming the specific toxic chemical identity of the toxic chemical as a trade secret and have marked the trade secret block in Part I, Section 2.1 on page 1 of Form R. Enter a generic chemical name that is descriptive of the chemical structure. You must limit the generic name to seventy characters (e.g., numbers, letters, spaces, punctuation) or less. Do not enter mixture names in Section 1.3; see Section 2 below.
Enter the name of the toxic chemical or chemical category exactly as it appears in Table II. If the toxic chemical name is followed by a synonym in parentheses, report the chemical by the name that directly follows the CAS number (i.e., not the synonym). If the listed toxic chemicalidentity isactually a product tradename (e.g., dicofol), the 9th Collective Index name is listed below it in brackets. You may report either name in this case.
In-house plant codes and other substitute names that are not structurally descriptive of the toxic chemical identity being withheld as a trade secret are not acceptable as a generic name. The generic name must appear on both sanitized and unsanitized Form R's, and the name must be the same as that used on your substantiation forms.
Section 2. Mixture Component Identity
Do not list the name of a chemical that does not appear in Table II, such as individual members of a reportable toxic chemical category. For example, if you use silver nitrate, do not report silver nitrate with its CAS number. Report this chemical as "silver compounds" with its category code, N740.
Ifyou are making a trade secret claim, you must report the specific toxic chemical identity on your unsanitized Form Rand unsanitized substantiation form. Do not report the name of the toxic chemical on your sanitized Form R or Saruhzed substantiation form. Include a generic name in Part II, Section 1.3 of your sanitized Form R report.
Do not complete this section if you have completed Section 1 of Part II. Report the generic name provided to you by your supplier in this section if your supplier is claiming the chemical identity proprietary or trade se cret. Do not answer "yes" in Part I, Section 2.1 on page 1 of the form if you complete this section. You do not need to supply trade secret substantiation forms for this toxic chemical because it is your supplier who is claiming the chemical identity a trade secret.

2.1 Generic Chemical Name Provided by Supplier
Enter the generic chemical name in this section only if the following three conditions apply:
1. You determine that the mixture contains a listed toxic chemical but the only identity you have for that chemical is a generic name;
2. You know either the specific concentration of that toxic chemical component or a maximum or average concentration level; and
3. You multiply the concentration level by the total annual amount of the whole mixture processed or otherwise used and determine that you meet the process or otherwise use threshold for that single, generically identified mixture component.
And check at least one of the following:
c. For on-site use/processing - the toxic chemical is produced or imported and then further pro cessed or otherwise used at the same facility, {f you check this block, you must also check at least one item in Part II, Section 3.2 or 3.3.
d. For sale/distribution - the toxic chemical is pro duced or imported specifically for sale or distri bution outside the manufacturing facility.
e. As a byproduct - the toxic chemical is produced coincidentally during the manufacture, process ing, otherwise use, or disposal of another chemi cal substance or mixture and, following its production, is separated from that other chemi cal substance or mixture. Toxic chemicals pro duced as a result of waste management are also considered byproducts.
Section 3. Activities and Uses of the Toxic Chemical at the Facility
Indicate whether the toxic chemical is manufactured (including imported), processed, or otherwise used at the facility and the general nature of such activities and uses at the facility during the calendar year (see example 7,pg. 23, and figure 3, pg. 24). You are not required to report on Form R the quantity manufactured, processed or other wise used. Report activities that take place only at your facility, not activities that take place at other facilities involving your products. You must check all the boxes in this section that apply. If you are a manufacturer of the toxic chemical, you must check (a) and / or (b), and at least one of (c), (d), (e), or (f) in Section 3.1. Refer to the definitions of "manufacture," "process," and "otherwise use" in the general information section of these instruc tions or Part 40, Section 372.3 of the Code of Federal Regu lations for additional explanations.

3.1 Manufacture the Toxic Chemical
Persons who manufacture (including import) the toxic chemical must check at least one of the following:
As an impurity - the toxic chemical is produced coincidentally as a result of the manufacture, processing, or otherwise use of another chemical but is not separated and remains primarily in the mixture or product with that other chemical.
Process the Toxic Chemical (incorporative activities)
As a reactant - A natural or synthetic toxic chemi cal used in chemical reactions for the manufac ture of anotherchemical substance or of a product. Includes, but is not limited to, feedstocks, raw materials, intermediates, and initiators.
As a formulation component - A toxic chemical added to a product (or product mixture) prior to further distribution of the product that acts as a performance enhancer during use of the prod uct. Examples of toxic chemicals used in this capacity include, but are not limited to, addi tives, dyes, reaction diluents, initiators, solvents, inhibitors, emulsifiers, surfactants, lubricants, flame retardants, and rheological modifiers.

If the toxic chemical present at your facility was part of a mixture or trade name product, determine the maximum quantity of the toxic chemical present at the facility by calculating the weight percent of the toxic chemical only.
Do not include the weight of the entire mixture or trade name product. This data may be found in the Tier II form your facility may have prepared under Section 312 of
Example 7: Activities and Uses of Toxic Chemicals
In the example below, it is assumed that the threshold quantities for manufacture, process, or otherwise use (25,000 pounds, 25,000 pounds, and 10,000 pounds, respectively) have been exceeded and the reporting of listed toxic chemicals is therefore required.
Your facility manufactures diazomethane. Fifty percent is sold as a product. The remaining 50 percent is reacted with alpha-naphthylamine, forming N-methyl-alpha-naphthylamine and also producing nitrogen gas.
Q Your company manufactures diazomethane, a listed toxic chemical, both for sale/distribution as a commercial product and for on-site use/processing as a feedstock in the N-methyl-alpha-naphthylamine production process. Because the diazomethane is a reactant, it is also processed. See Figure 3 for how this information would be reported in Part II, Section 3 of Form R.
^ Your facility also processes alpha-naphthylamine, as a reactant to produce N-methyl-alpha-naphthy lamine, a chemical not on the section 313 list.

5.2 Stack or Point Air Emissions
Section 5.
Quantity of the Toxic Chemical Entering each Environmental Medium
In Section 5, you must account for the total aggregate releases of the toxic chemical to the environment from your facility for the calendar year.
Report the total of all releases of the toxic chemical to the air that occur through stacks, vents, ducts, pipes, or other confined air streams. You must include storage tank emissions. Air releases from air pollution control equip ment would generally fall in this category. Monitoring data, engineering estimates, and mass balance calcula tions may help you to complete this section.
Do not enter the values in Section 5 in gallons, tons, liters, or any measure other than pounds. You must also enter the values as whole numbers. Numbers following a decimal point are not acceptable.
Releases to the environment include emissions to the air, discharges to surface waters, and on-site releases to land and underground injection wells. If you have no releases to a particular media (e.g., stack air), you must check the "NA" box or enter zero; do not leave any part of Section 5 blank.
You are not required to count, as a release, quantities of a toxic chemical that are lost due to natural weathering or corrosion, normal/natural degradation of a product, or normal migration of a toxic chemical from a product. For example, amounts of a listed toxic chemical that migrate from plastic products in storage do not have to be counted in estimates of releases of that toxic chemical from the facility.
All releases of the toxic chemical to the air must be classified as either point or non-point emissions, and included in the total quantity reported for these releases in Sections 5.1 and 5.2. Instructions for columns A, B, and C follow the discussions of Sections 5.1 through 5.5.
5.1 Fugitive or Non-Point Air Emissions
Report the total of all releases of the toxic chemical to the ^ that are not released through stacks, vents, ducts, pipes, or any other confined air stream. You must include (1) fugitive equipment leaks from valves, pump seals, flanges, compressors, samplingconnections, open-ended Unes, etc.; (2) evaporative losses from surface impound ments and spills; (3) releases from building ventilation systems; and (4) any other fugitive or non-point air emis sions. Engineering estimates and mass balance calcula
5.3 Discharges to Receiving Streams or Water Bodies
In Section 5.3 you are to enter the name(s) of the stream(s) or water body(ies) to which your facility directly dis charges the toxic chemical on which you are reporting. A total of three spaces are provided on page 2 of Form R. Enter the name of each receiving stream or surface water body to which the toxic chemical being reported is di rectly discharged. Report the name of the receiving stream or water body as it appears on the NPDES permit for the facility. If the stream is not covered by a permit, enter the name of the off-site stream or water body by which it is publicly known. Do not list a series of streams through which the toxic chemical flows. Be sure to include the receiving stream(s) or water body(ies) that receive stormwater runoff from your facility. Do not enter names of streams to which off-site treatment plants discharge. Enter "NA" in Section 5.3.1. if you do not discharge the listed toxic chemical to surface water bod ies.
Enter the total annual amount of the toxic chemical re leased from all discharge points at the facility to each receiving stream or water body. Include process outfalls such as pipes and open trenches, releases from on-site wastewater treatment systems, and thecontribution from stormwater runoff, if applicable (see instructions for col umn C below). Do not include discharges to a POTW or other off-site wastewater treatment facilities in this sec tion. These off-site transfers must be reported in Part II, Section 6 of Form R. Wastewater analyses and flowmeter data may provide the quantities you will need to com plete this section.
Discharges of listed acids (e.g., hydrogen fluoride; nitric acid; and phosphoric acid,) may be reported as zero if the discharges have been neutralized to pH 6 or above. If

wastewater containing a listed acid is discharged below pH 6, then releases of the acid must be reported. In this case, pH measurements may be used to estimate the amount of mineral acid released.
land, any volatilization of listed toxic chemicals into air occurring during the disposal operation must be eluded in the total fugitive air releases reported in Partfll Section 5.1 of Form R.
5.4.1 Underground Inj ection On-Site to Class I Wells
Enter the total amount of the toxic chemical that was injected into Class I wells at the facility. Chemical analy ses, injection rate meters, and RCRA Hazardous Waste Generator Reports are good sources for obtaining data that will be useful in completing this section. Check the Not Applicable "NA" box in Section 5.4.1 if you do not inject the reported toxic chemical into Class I under ground wells.
5.4.2 Underground Injection On-Site to Class II-V Wells
Enter the total amount of the toxic chemical that was injected into wells at the facility other than Class I wells. Chemical analyses and injection rate meters are good sources for obtaining data that will be useful in complet ing this section. Check the Not Applicable "NA" box in Section 5.4.2 if you do not inject the reported toxic chemi cal into Class II-V underground wells.
5.5 Disposal to Land On-Site
Five predefined subcategories for reporting quantities released to land within the boundaries of the facility are provided. Do not report land disposal at off-site locations in this section. Accident histories and spill records may be useful (e.g., release notification reports required under Section 304 of EPCRA and accident histories required under Section 112(r)(7)(B)(ii) of the Clean Air Act).
5.5.1ARCRA Subtitle C landfills--Enter thetotal amount of the toxic chemical that was placed in RCRA Subtitle C landfills. Leaks from landfills need not be reported as a release because the amount of the toxic chemical has already been reported as a release.
5.5.1B Other landfills -- Enter the total amount of the toxic chemical that was placed in landfills other than RCRA Subtitle C landfills. Leaks from landfills need not be reported as a release because the amount of the toxic chemical has already been reported as a release.
5.5.3 Surface impoundment -- A surface impoundment! is a natural topographic depression, man-made excava-tion, or diked area formed primarily of earthen materialsl (although some may be lined with man-made materials),' which is designed to hold an accumulation of liquid! wastes or wastes containing free liquids. Examples of] surface impoundments are holding, settling, storage, and] elevation pits; ponds, and lagoons. If the pit, pond, or] lagoon is intended for storage or holding without dis-<j charge, it would be considered to be a surface impound ] ment used as a final disposal method. A facility should! determine, to the best of its ability, the percentage of al volatile chemical, e.g. benzene, that is in waste sent to a] surface impoundment that evaporates in the reporting] year. The facility should report this as a fugitive air^ emission in section 5.1. The balance should be reported in! section 5.5.3.
Quantities of the toxic chemical released to surface im poundments that are used merely as part of a wastewater^ treatment process generally must not be reported in this section. However, if the impoundment accumulates' sludges containing the toxic chemical, you must include' an estimate in this section unless the sludges are removed: and otherwise disposed (in which case they should be reported under the appropriate section of the form). For the purposes of this reporting, storage tanks are not considered to be a type of disposal and are not to be reported in this section of Form R.
5.5.4 Other Disposal--Includes any amount of a listed^ toxic chemical released to land that does not fit the categories of landfills, land treatment, or surface im poundment. This other disposal would include any spills or leaks of listed toxic chemicals to land. For example, 2,000 pounds of benzene leaks from a underground pipeline into the land at a facility. Because the pipe was only a few feet from the surface at the erupt point, 30 percent of the benzene evaporates into the air. The 600 pounds released to the air would be reported as a fugitive air release (Part II, Section 5.1) and the remaining 1,400 pounds would be reported as a release to land, other disposal (Part II, Section 5.5.4).
5. Column A Total Release
5.5.2 Land treatment/application farming -- Land treat ment is a disposal method in which a waste containing a listed toxic chemical is applied onto or incorporated into soil. While this disposal method is considered a release to

chemical from your facility for sale or distribution in commerce, or of wastes to other facilities for waste treat ment, recycling, disposal, or energy recovery (see Part II, Section 6 of these Instructions). Both routine releases, such as fugitive air emissions, and accidental or non routine releases, such as chemical spills, must be included in your estimate of the quantity released. EPA requires no more than two significant digits when reporting releases (e.g / 7,521 pounds would be reported as 7,500 pounds).
Releases of Less Than 1,000 Pounds. For total annual releases or off-site transfers of a toxic chemical from the facility of less than 1,000 pounds, the amount may be reported either as an estimate or by using the range codes that have been developed. The reporting range codes to be used are:
For example, if nitric acid is involved in the facility's processing activities but the facility neutralizes the wastes to a pH of 6 or above, then the facility reports a 0 release for the toxic chemical. If the facility has no underground injection well, "NA" would be written in Part I, Section 4.10 and checked in Part II, Section 5.4.1 and 5.4.2 of Form R. Also, if the facility does not landfill the acidic waste, NA would be checked in Part II, Section 5.5.1.B of Form R.
Releases of 1,000 Pounds or More. For releases to any medium that amount to 1,000 pounds or more for the year, you must provide an estimate in pounds per year in column A. Any estimate provided in column A should be reported to no more than two significant figures. This estimate should be in whole numbers. Do not use decimal points.
Code A B C
Range (pounds') 1-10 11-499 500-999
Do not enter a range code and an estimate in the same box in column A. Total annual on-site releases or off-site transfers of a toxic chemical from the facility of less than 1 pound may be reported in one of several ways. You should round the value to the nearest pound. If the estimate is greater than 0.5 pounds, you should either enter the range code "A" for "1-10" or enter "\" in column A. If the release is less than 0.5 pounds or less, you may round to zero and enter "0" in column A.
Note that total annual releases of 0.5 pounds or less from the processing or otherwise use of an article maintain the article status of that item. Thus, if the only releases you have are from processing an article, and such releases are 0.5 pounds or less per year, you are not required to submit a report for that toxic chemical. The 0.5 pound release determination does not apply to just a single article. It applies to the cumulative releases from the processing or otherwise use of the same type of article (e.g., sheet metal or plastic film) that occurs over the course of the calendar year.
Zero Releases. If you have no releases of a toxic chemical to a particular medium, report either NA, not applicable, 0r 0, as appropriate. Report NA only when there is no possibility a release could have occurred to a specific media or off-site location. If a release to a specific media or off-site location could have occurred, but either did not oocur or the annual aggregate release was less than 0.5 pounds or less, report zero. However, if you report zero releases, a basis of estimate must be provided in column
Calculating Releases. To provide the release informa tion required in column A in this section, you must use all readily available data (including relevant monitoring data and emissions measurements) collected at your facility to meet other regulatory requirements or as part of routine plant operations, to the extent you have such data for the toxic chemical.
When relevant monitoring data or emission measure ments are not readily available, reasonable estimates of the amounts released must be made using published emission factors, material balance calculations, or engi neeringcalculations. You may not use emission factors or calculations to estimate releases if more accurate data are available.
No additional monitoring or measurement of the quanti ties or concentrations of any toxic chemical released into the environment, or of the frequency of such releases, beyond that which is required under other provisions of law or regulation or as part of routine plant operations, is required for the purpose of completing Form R.
You must estimate, as accurately as possible, the quantity (in pounds) of the toxic chemical or chemical category that is released annually to each environmental medium. Include only the quantity of the toxic chemical in this estimate. If the toxic chemical present at your facility was part of a mixture or trade name product, calculate only the releases of the toxic chemical, not the other compo nents of the mixture or trade name product. If you are only able to estimate the releases of the mixture or trade name product as a whole, you must assume that the release of the toxic chemical is proportional to its concen tration in the mixture or trade name product. See Part 40, Section 372.30(b) of the Code of Federal Regulations for further information on how to calculate the concentration and weight of the toxic chemical in the mixture or trade name product.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions 27
ABDOO129893
If you are reporting a toxic chemical category listed in Table II of these instructions rather than a specific toxic chemical, you combine the release data for all chemcials in the listed toxic chemical category (e.g., all glycol ethers or all chlorophenols) and report the aggregate amount for that toxic chemical in that category separately. For ex ample, if your facility releases 3,000 pounds per year of 2chlorophenol, 4,000 pounds per year of 3-chlorophenol, and 4,000 pounds per year of 4-chlorophenol to air as fugitive emissions, you should report that your facility releases 11,000 pounds per year of chlorophenols to air as fugitive emissions in Part II, Section 5.1.
For aqueous ammonia solution, releases should be re ported based on 10% of total aqueous ammonia. Ammo nia evaporating from aqueous ammonia solutions is considered to be anhydrous ammonia; therefore 100% of the anhydrous ammonia should be reported if it is re leased to the environment. For dissociable nitrate com pounds, release estimates should be based on the weight of the nitrate only.
For metal compound categories (e.g., chromium com pounds), report release of only the parent metal. For example, a user of various inorganic chromium salts would report the total chromium released regardless of the chemical form (e.g., as the original salts, chromium oxide) and exclude any contribution to mass made by other species in the molecule.
5. Column B Basis of Estimate
For each release estimate, you are required to indicate the principal method used to determine the amount of re lease reported. You will enter a letter code that identifies the method that applies to the largest portion of the total estimated release quantity.
The codes are as follows:
M- Estimate is based on monitoring data or mea surements for the toxic chemical as transferred to an off-site facility.
C- Estimate is based on mass balance calculations, such as calculation of the amount of the toxic chemical in wastes entering and leaving process equipment.
or best engineering judgment. This would elude applying an estimated removal efficier to a treatment, even if the composition of waste before treatment was fully identify through monitoring data.
For example, if 40 percent of stack emissions of reported toxic chemical were derived using monitoring data, 30 percent by mass balance, and 30 percent bv emission factors, you would enter the code letter "M" foj monitoring.
If the monitoring data, mass balance, or emission facto used to estimate the release is not specific to the toxii chemical being reported, the form should identify estimate as based on engineering calculations or besl engineering judgment.
If a mass balance calculation yields the flow rate of waste, but the quantity of reported toxic chemical in the waste is based on solubility data, report "O" becaus "engineering calculations" were used as the basis estimate of the quantity of the toxic chemical in the waste!
If the concentration of the toxic chemical in the waste wa measured by monitoring equipment and the flow rate of the waste was determined by mass balance, then the] primary basis of the estimate is "monitoring" (M). Even] though a mass balance calculation also contributed to the] estimate, "monitoring" should be indicated because moni*! toring data were used to estimate the concentration of thej waste.
Mass balance (C) should only be indicated if it is directly:J used to calculate the mass (weight) of toxic chemical] released. Monitoring data should be indicated as thej basis of estimate only if the toxic chemical concentration! is measured in the waste being released into the environ-] ment. Monitoring data should not be indicated, fori example, if the monitoring data relate to a concentration] of the toxic chemical in other process streams within thej facility.
It is important to realize that the accuracy and proficiency! of release estimation will improve over time. However,' submitters are notrequired to use new emission factors orj estimation techniques to revise previous Form R submis-j sions.

Example 8: Stormwater Runoff
Your facility is located in a semi-arid region of the United States which has an annual precipitation (inclu snowfall) of 12 inches of rain. (Snowfall should be converted to the equivalent inches of rain; assume one foot of sno is equivalent to orve inch of rain.) The total area covered by your facility is 42 acres (about 170,000 square meters 1,829,520 square feet). The area of your facility is 50 percent unimproved area, 10 percent asphaltic streets, and percent concrete pavement.
The total stormwater runoff from your facility is therefore calculated as follows:
Land Use
Runoff % Total Area Coefficient
Unimproved area Asphaltic streets Concrete pavement

In Section 6.1.A, estimate the quantity of the reported toxic chemical transferred to all POTWs and the basis upon which the estimate was made. In Section 6.1.B., enter the name and address for each POTW to which your facility discharges wastewater containing the reported toxic chemical.
If you do not discharge wastewater containing the re ported toxic chemical to a POTW, enter not applicable, NA, in the box for the POTW's name in Section 6.1.B._.
M- Estimate is based on monitoring data or mea surements for the toxic chemical as transferred to an off-site facility.
C - Estimate is based on mass balance calculations, such as calculation of the amount of the toxic chemical in streams entering and leaving process equipment.
E - Estimate is based on published emission factors, such as those relatingrelease quantity to through put or equipment type (e.g., air emission factors).
O - Estimate is based on other approaches such as engineering calculations (e.g., estimating volatil ization using published mathematical formulas) or best engineering judgment. This would in clude applying an estimated removal efficiency to a waste stream, even if the composition of the stream before treatment was fully identified through monitoring data.
If you transfer a toxic chemical to more than one POTW, you should report the basis of estimate that was used to determine the largest percentage of the toxic chemcial that was transferred.
6.2 Transfers to Other Off-Site Locations
6.1.A.1 Total Transfers
Enter the total amount, in pounds, of the reported toxic chemical that is contained in the wastewaters transferred to all POTWs. Do not enter the total poundage of the wastewaters.

If you do not ship or transfer wastes containing the reported toxic chemical to other off-site locations, enter not applicable, NA, in the box for the off-site locations's EPA Identification Number (defined in 40 CFR 260.10 and therefore commonly referred to as the RCRA ID Number). This number may be found on the Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest, which is required by RCRA regulations. If you ship or transfer wastes containing a toxic chemical and the off-site location does not have an EPA Identification Number (e.g., it does not accept RCRA hazardous wastes or the wastes in question are not clas sified as hazardous), enter NA in the box for the off-site location EPA Identification Number. If you ship or transfer the reported toxic chemical in wastes to another country, enter the Federal Information Processing Stardards (FIPS) code for that country in the country field of the address for the off-site facility.

If you transfer the toxic chemical in wastes to an off-si facility for distinct and multiple purposes, you mus. report those activities for each off-site location, alon with the quantity of the reported toxic chemical assod* ated with each activity. For example, your facility trans? fers a total of 15,000 pounds of toluene to an off-sit location that will use 5,000 pounds for the purposes o energy recovery, enter 7,500 pounds into a recove" process, and dispose of the remaining 2,500 pounds These quantities and the associated activity codes mus be reported separately in Section 6.2. (See Figure 4 for hypothetical Section 6.2 completed for two off-site loca tion, one of which receives the transfer of 15,000 pound of toluene as detailed.) If you need to report more th four off-site transfers (involving different waste manag' ment) to one location, continue reporting of these tra fers by listing thesame location in thenext off-site locati section.
Do not double or multiple count amounts transferred off site. For example, when a reported toxic chemical is sen to an off-site facility for sequential activities and th specific quantities associated with each activity are uh known, report only a single quantity (the total quanti transferred to that off-site location) along with a singl activity code. In such a case, report the activity applied td the majority of the reported toxic chemical sent off-snnot the ultimate disposition of the toxic chemical.

Example 9: Calculating Releases and Transfers
Your facility disposes of 14,000 pounds of lead chromate (PbCr04.PbO) in an on-site landfill and transfers 16,000 pounds of lead selenite (PbSe04) to an off-site land disposal facility. You would therefore be submitting three separate reports on the following: lead compounds, selenium compounds, and chromium compounds. However, the quantities you would be reporting would be the pounds of "parent" metal being released or transferred off-site. All quantities are based on mass balance calculations (See Section 5.B for information on Basis of Estimate and Section 6.C for waste treatment or disposal codes and information on transfers of toxic chemicals in wastes). You would calculate releases of lead, chromium, and selenium by first determining the percentage by weight of these metals in the materials you use as follows:
Lead Chromate (PbCr04.PbO) -
Molecular weight = 546.37
Lead 2 Pb -
Molecular weight = 207.2x2 = 414.4
Chromium 1 Cr -
Molecular weight = 51.996
Lead chromate is therefore (% by weight)
(414.4/546.37) = 75.85% lead and (51.996/546.37) = 9.52% chromium
Lead Selenite (PbSe04)
Molecular weight = 350.17
Lead 1 Pb
Molecular weight = 207.2
Selenium 1 Se
Molecular weight = 78.96
Lead selenite is therefore (% by weight)
(207.2/350.17) = 59.17% lead and (78.96/350.17) = 22.55% selenium.
The total pounds of lead, chromium, and selenium released or transferred from your facility are as follows:
Lead
Release:
0.7585 x 14,000 = 10,619 pounds from lead chromate (round to 11,000 pounds)
Transfer:
0.5917 x 16,000 = 9,467 pounds from lead selenite (round to 9,500 pounds)
Chromium
Release:
0.0952 x 14,000 = 1,333 pounds from lead chromate (round to 1,300 pounds)
Selenium
Transfer:
0.2255 x 16,000 = 3,608 pounds of selenium from lead selenite (round to 3,600 pounds)

Enter one of the following codes to identify the type of waste treatment, disposal, recycling or energy recovery methods used by the off-site location for the reported toxic chemical. You must use more than one line and code for a single location when distinct quantities of the reported toxic chemical are subject to different waste treatment, purpose of waste treatment, disposal, recycling, or energy recovery. You should use the code that, to the best of your knowledge, represents the ultimate disposition of the chemical.
If the toxic chemical is sent off-site for further direct reuse (e.g., a toxic chemical in metal scrap) and does not un dergo a waste management activity (i.e., release [includ ing disposal], treatment, energy recovery, or recycling [recovery] prior to that reuse, it need not be reported in section 6.2 or section 8.

Section 7 On-Site Waste Treatment, Energy Recovery and Recycling Methods
You must report in this section the methods of waste treatment, energy recovery, and recycling applied to the reported toxic chemical in wastes on-site. There are three separate sections for reporting such activities.
Section 7A On-Site Waste Treatment Methods and Efficiency
Most of the chemical-specific information required by EPCRA Section 313 that is reported on Form R is specific to the toxic chemical rather than the waste stream con taining the toxic chemical. However, EPCRA Section 313 does require that waste treatment methods applied on site to waste streams that contain the toxic chemcial be reported. This information is collected in Section 7A of Form R.
In Section 7A, you must provide the following informa tion if you treat the reported toxic chemical on-site:
Use a separate line in Section 7A for each general waste stream type. Report only information about treatment of waste streams at your facility, not information about off site waste treatment.
If you do not perform on-site treatment of waste streams containing the reported toxic chemical, check the Not Applicable (NA) box at the top of Section 7A.
7A Column A General Waste Stream
For each waste treatment method, indicate the type of waste stream containing the toxic chemical that is treated. Enter the letter code that corresponds to the general waste stream type:
A Gaseous (gases, vapors, airborne particulates) W Wastewater (aqueous waste) L Liquid waste streams (non-aqueous waste) S Solid waste streams (including sludges and
slurries) If a waste is a mixture of water and organic liquid and the organic content is less than 50 percent, report it as a wastewater (W). Slurries and sludges containing water must be reported as solid waste if they contain appre ciable amounts of dissolved solids, or solids that may settle, such that the viscosity or density of the waste is considerably different from that of process wastewater.
7A Column B Waste Treatment Method(s) Sequence
Enter the appropriate code from the list below for each on-site waste treatment method used on a waste stream containing the toxic chemical, regardless of whether the waste treatment method actually removes the specific toxic chemical being reported. Waste treatment methods must be reported for each type of waste stream being treated (i.e., gaseous waste streams, aqueous waste streams, liquid non-aqueous waste streams, and solids). Except for the air emission treatment codes, the waste treatment codes are not restricted to any medium.

If your facility has several pieces of equipment perform ing a similar service in a waste treatment sequence, you f; ^y combine the reporting for such equipment. It is not ' necessary to enter four codes to cover four scrubber units, for example, if all four are treating waste streams of similar character (e.g., sulfuric acid mist emissions), have similar influent concentrations, and have similar removal efficiencies. If, however, any of these parameters differs from one unit to the next, each scrubber must be listed separately.
If your facility performs more than eight sequential waste treatment methods on a single general waste stream, continue listing the methods in the next row and renum ber appropriately those waste treatment method code boxes you used to continue the sequence. For example, if the general waste stream in box 7A. 1 a had nine treatment methods applied to it, the ninth method would be indi cated in the first method box for row 7A.2a. The numeral "1" would be crossed out, and a "9" would be inserted.

Treatment applied to any other general waste stream types would then be listed in the next empty row. In the scenario above, for instance, the second general waste stream would be reported in row 7A.3a. See Figure 5 for an example of a hypothetical Section 7A completed for a nine-step waste treatment process and a single waste treatment method.

7A Column C Range of Influent Concentration
The form requires an indication of the range of concentra- tion of the toxic chemical in the waste stream (i.e., the influent) as it typically enters the waste treatment step or sequence. The concentration is based on the amount or mass of the toxic chemical in the waste stream as com pared to the total amount or mass of the waste stream. Enter in the space provided one of the following code numbers corresponding to the concentration of the toxic chemical in the influent:
In the space provided, enter the number indicating the percentage of the toxic chemical removed from the waste stream through destruction, biological degradation, chemical conversion, or physical removal. The waste treatment efficiency (expressed as percent removal) rep resents the percentage of the toxic chemical destroyed or removed (based on amount or mass), not merely changes in volume or concentration of the toxic chemical in the waste stream. The efficiency, which can reflect the overall removal from sequential treatment methods applied to the general waste stream, refers only to the percent de struction, degradation, conversion, or removal of the listed toxic chemical from the waste stream, not the percent conversion or removal of other constituents in the waste stream. The efficiency also does not refer to the general efficiency of the treatment method for any waste stream. For some waste treatment methods, the percent removal will represent removal by several mechanisms, as in an aeration basin, where a toxic chemical may evaporate, biodegrad, orbe physically removed from the sludge.
Percent removal can be calculated as follows:
1 - Greater than 1 percent 2 = 100 parts per million (0.01 percent) to 1 percent
(10,000 parts per million) 3=1 part per million to 100 parts per million 4 = 1 part per billion to 1 part per million 5 = Less than 1 part per billion
Note: Parts per million (ppm) is:
(I - E) x 100, where I
I = amount of the toxic chemical in the influent waste stream (entering the waste treatment step or sequence) and E = amount of the toxic chemical in the effluent waste stream (exiting the waste treatment step or sequence).
o milligrams / kilogram (mass / mass) for solids and liquids;
o cubic centimeters/cubic meter (volume /volume) for gases;
o milligrams/liter for solutions or dispersions of the chemical in water; and
o milligrams of chemical/kilogram of air for par ticulates in air.
If you have particulate concentrations (at standard tem perature and pressure) as grains/cubic foot of air, multi ply by 1766.6 to convert to parts per million; if in milligrams/cubic meter, multiply by 0.773 to obtain parts per million. These conversion factors are for standard
Calculate the amount of the toxic chemical in the influent waste stream by multiplying the concentration (by weight) of the toxic chemical in the waste stream by the total amount or weight of the waste stream. In most cases, the percent removal compares the treated effluent to the influent for the particular type of waste stream. For solidification of wastewater, the waste treatment effi ciency can be reported as 100 percent if no volatile toxic chemicals were removed with the water or evaporated into the air. Percent removal does not apply to incinera tion because the waste stream, such as wastewater or liquids, may not exist in a comparable form after waste treatment and the purpose of incineration as a waste treatment is to destroy the toxic chemical by converting it to carbon dioxide and water.

chemical is incinerated, the percent efficiency must be based on the amount of the toxic chemical destroyed or combusted, except for metals or metal compounds. In the cases where a metal or metal compound is incinerated, the efficiency is always zero for the parent metal.
Similarly, an efficiency of zero must be reported for any waste treatment method(s) (e.g., evaporation) that does not destroy, chemically convert, or physically remove the toxic chemical from the waste stream.
For metal compounds, the calculation of the reportable concentration and waste treatment efficiency must be based on the weight of the parent metal, not on the weight of the metal compounds. Metals are not destroyed, only physically removed or chemically converted from one form into another. The waste treatment efficiency re ported must represent only physical removal of the par ent metal from the waste stream (except for incineration), not the percent chemical conversion of the metal com pound. If a listed waste treatment method converts but does not remove a metal (e.g., chromium reduction), the method must be reported with a waste treatment effi ciency of zero.
Listed toxic chemicals that are strong mineral acids neu tralized to a pH of 6 or above are considered treated at a 100 percent efficiency.
All data available at your facility must be used to calcu late waste treatment efficiency and influent toxic chemi cal concentration. If data are lacking, estimates must be made using best engineeringjudgment or other methods.
Example 10: Reporting On-Site Energy Recovery
One waste stream generated by your facility contains among other chemicals, toluene and Freon 113. Thresh old quantities are exceeded for both of these toxic chemi cals, and you would, therefore, submit two separate Form R reports. This waste stream is sent to an on-site indus trial furnace which uses the heat generated in a thermal hydrocarbon cracking process at your facility. Because toluene has a significant heat value (17,440 BTU/pound) and the energy is recovered in an industrial furnace, the code "U02" would be reported in Section 7B for the Form R submitted for toluene.
However, as Freon 113 does not contribute any value for energy recovery purposes, the combustion of Freon 113 in the industrial furnace is considered waste treatment, not energy recovery. You would report Freon 113 as entering a waste treatment step (i.e., incineration), in Section 7A, column b.
Only listed toxic chemicals that have a significant heating i value and are combusted in an energy recovery unit such as an industrial furnace, kiln, or boiler, can be reported as combusted for energy recovery in this section. If a re ported toxic chemical is incinerated on-site but does not contribute energy to the process (e.g., chlorofluorocar-: bons), it must be considered waste treated on-site andi reported in Section 7A. Metals and metal compounds' cannot be combusted for energy recovery. Energy recov- ( ery may take place only in one of the types of energy , recovery equipment listed below.
7A Column E Based on Operating Data?
Energy Recovery Codes
This column requires you to indicate "Yes" or "No" to whether the waste treatment efficiency estimate is based on actual operating data. For example, you would check "Yes" if the estimate is based on monitoring of influent and effluent wastes under typical operating conditions.
If the efficiency estimate is based on published data for similar processes or on equipment supplier's literature, or if you otherwise estimated either the influent or efflu ent waste comparison or the flow rate, check "No."
Section 7B On-Site Energy Recovery Processes
In Section 7B, you must indicate the on-site energy recov ery methods used on the reported toxic chemical. If you do not perform on-site energy recovery for the reported toxic chemical, check the Not Applicable (NA) box at the top of Section 7B.
U01 U02 U03 U09
Industrial Kiln Industrial Furnace Industrial Boiler Other Energy Recovery Methods
If your facility uses more than one on-site energy recov ery method for the reported toxic chemical, list the meth-j ods used in descending order (greatest to least) based onj the amount of the toxic chemical entering such methods..
Section 7C On-Site Recycling Processes
In Section 7C, you must report the recycling methods used on the listed toxic chemical. If you do not condudj any on-site recycling of the reported toxic chemical, chec the Not Applicable (NA) box at the top of Section 7C.

Section 8
Source Reduction and Recycling Activities
This Section includes the data elements mandated by section 6607 of the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990 (PPA). Section 8 is a required section of Form R and must be completed.
Column B: Current Reporting Year
Quantities for Sections 8.1 through 8.7 must be reported for the current reporting year (1997) in column B.
Columns C and D: Following Year and Sec ond Following Year
In Section 8, you must provide information about source reduction and recycling activities related to the toxic chemical for which releases are being reported. For all appropriate questions, report only the quantity, in pounds, of the reported toxic chemical. Do not include the weight of water, soil, or other waste constituents. When reporting on the metal compound categories, report only the amount of the parent metal as you do when estimating release amounts. All amounts must be reported in whole numbers and up to two significant figures can be provided.
Quantities for Sections 8.1 through 8.7 must be esti mated for 1998 and 1999. EPA expects reasonable future quantity estimates using a logical basis. Infor mation available at the facility to estimate quantities of the chemical expected during these years include planned source reduction activities, market projections, expected contracts, anticipated new product lines, com pany growth projections, and production capacity fig ures. Respondents should take into account protections available for trade secrets as provided in EPCRA Sec tion 322 (42 USC 11042).
Section 8.1 through 8.9 must be completed for each toxic chemical. Section 8.10 must be completed only if a source reduction activity was newly implemented spe cifically (in whole or in part) for the reported toxic chemical during the reporting year. Section 8.11 allows you to indicate if you have attached additional optional information on source reduction, recycling, or pollution control activities implemented at any time at your facil
Relationship to Other Laws
The reporting categories for quantities recycled, treated, used for energy recovery, and disposed apply to com pleting Section 8 of Form R as well as to the rest of Form R. These categories are to be used only for TRI report ing. They are not intended for use in determining, under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
ity. Example 11: Reporting Future Estimates
Sections 8.1 through 8.7 require reporting of quantities for the current reporting year, the prior year, and quan tities anticipated in both the first year immediately following the reporting year and the second year fol lowing the reporting year (future estimates).
Beginning with the 1995 reporting year, facilities can use applicable, "NA," in Sections 8.1 through 8.7 to indicate that there is no on-site or off-site recycling, energy recovery, treatment, or release.
Column A: Prior Year
Quantities for Sections 8.1 through 8.7 must be reported for the year immediately preceding the reporting year in column A. For reports due July 1,1998 (reporting year 1997), the prior year is 1996. Information available at the facility that may be used to estimate the prior year's quantities include the prior year's Form R submission, supporting documentation, and recycling, energy re covery, or treatment operating logs or invoices.
A pharmaceutical manufacturing facility uses a listed toxic chemical in the manufacture of a prescription drug. During the reporting year (1997), the company received approval from the Food and Drug Adminis tration to begin marketing their product as an overthe-counter drug beginning in 1998. This approval is publicly known and does not constitute confidential business information. As a result of this expanded market, the company estimates that sales and subse quent production of this drug will increase their use of the reported toxic chemical by 30 percent per year for the two years following the reporting year. The facility treats the toxic chemical on-site and the quantity treated is directly proportional to production activity. The facility thus estimates the total quantity of the reported toxic chemical treated for the follow ing year (1998) by adding 30 percent to the amount in column B (the amount for the current reporting year). The second following year (1999) figure can be ealeulated by adding an additional 30 percent to the amount reported in column C (the amount for the following year (1998) projection).

(RCRA) Subtitle C regulations, whether a secondary material is a waste when recycled. These definitions also do not apply to the information that may be submitted in the Biennial Report required under RCRA. In addition, these definitions do not imply any future redefinition of RCRA terms and do not affect EPA's RCRA authority or authority under any other statute administered by EPA.
Differences in terminology and reporting requirements for toxic chemicals reported on Form R and for hazard ous wastes regulated under RCRA occur because EPCRA and the PPA focus on specific chemicals, while the RCRA regulations and the Biennial Report focus on wastestreams which may include more than one chemi cal. For example, a RCRA hazardous waste containing a section 313 toxic chemical is recycled to recover certain constituents of that waste, but not the toxic chemical reported under EPCRA section 313. The toxic chemical simply passes through the recycling process and remains in the residual from the recycling process, which is disposed. While the waste may be considered recycled under RCRA, the toxic chemical constituent would be considered to be disposed for TRI purposes.
Quantities Reportable in Sections 8.1 - 8.7
Section 8 of Form R uses data collected to complete Part II, Sections 5 through 7. For this reason. Section 8 should be completed last. Sections 8.1,8.3,8.5,8.7, and 8.8 use data collected to complete sections 5 and 6 of Form R. The relationship between sections 5,6, and 8.8 to sections 8.1, 8.3, 8.5, and 8.7 are provided below in equation form.
8.2 - 8.3 A toxic chemical or a mixture containing a toxic chemical that is used for energy recovery on site or is sent off-site for energy recovery, unless it is a commercially available fuel (e.g. fuel oil no. 6). For the purposes of reporting on Form R, reportable on site and off-site energy recovery is the combustion of a waste containing a Section 313 toxic chemical when:
(a) The combustion unit is integrated into an energy recovery system (i.e., indus trial furnaces, ind us trial kilns, and boil ers); and
(b) The toxic chemical is combustible and has a heating value high enough to sustain combustion, (e.g., 5000 BTU)
8.4 - 8.5 A toxic chemical in a waste that is recycled on-site or is sent off-site for recycling.
8.5 = 6.2 (recycling)- 8.8 (off-site recy cling)
8.6 - 8.7 A toxic chemical (except for metals and metal compounds) or a mixture containing a toxic chemical that is treated on-site or is sent to a POTW or other off-site location for waste treatment.
8.7 = 6.1+ 6.2 (treatment)- 8.8 (off-site treatment)
A toxic chemical or a toxic chemical in a mixture that is a waste under RCRA must be reported in Sections 8.1 through 8.7.
8.1 Report releases pursuant to EPCRA Section 329(8) including "any spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, emitting, emptying, discharging, injecting, escaping, leaching, dumping, or disposing [on-site or off-site] into the environment (including the aban donment of barrels, containers, and other closed receptacles)." Do not include any quantity treated on-site or reported as treated off-site in section 6.
Metals and metal compounds reported, 1) in section 6.2 as sent off-site for stabilization/solidification (M41) or wastewater treatment (excluding POTWs) (M62) and / or ,2) in section 6.1 -- discharges to POTWs should be reported in section 8.1. These quantities should NOT be reported section 8.7.
Avoid Double-Counting in Sections 8.1 Through 8.8
Do not double- or multiple-count quantities in Sections 8.1 through 8.7. The quantities reported in each of those sections must be mutually exclusive. Do not multiplecount quantities entering sequential reportable activi ties. For example, 5,000 pounds of toxic chemical enters a treatment operation. Three thousand pounds of the toxic chemical exits the treatment operation and then enters a recycling operation. Five hundred pounds of the toxic chemical are in residues from the recycling operation which is subsequently sent off-site for dis posal. These quantities would be reported as follows in Section 8:
8.1 = 5 + 6.2 (disposal only) + 6.1 (metals and metal compounds only) - 8.8 (release or off-site disposal only)
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions 43
ABDOO129909
Section 8.1: Section 8.4: Section 8.6:
500 pounds disposed 2,500 pounds recycled 2,000 pounds treated (5,000 that initially entered - 3,000 that subsequently entered re cycling)
following events: (1) remedial actions, (2) catastrophic events such as earth quakes, fires, or floods; or
(3) one-time events not associated with normal or routine production pro cesses.
To report that 5,000 pounds were treated, 3,000pounds were recycled, and that 500 pounds were sent off-sitefor disposal would result in over-counting the quantities of toxic chemi cal recycled, treated, and disposed by 3,500 pounds.
Do not include in Sections 8.1 through 8.7 any quanti ties of the toxic chemical released into the environment due to remedial actions; catastrophic events such as earthquakes, fires, or floods; or unanticipated one-time events not associated with the production process such as tank ruptures or reactor explosions. These quantities should be reported in Section 8.8 only. For example, 10,000 pounds of diaminoanisole sulfate is released due to a catastrophic event and is subsequently treated off-site. The 10,000 pounds is reported in Section 8.8, but the amount subsequently treated off-site is not reported in Section 8.7.
8.8 Quantity Released to the Environment as a Result of Remedial Actions, Catas trophic Events, or One-Time Events Not Associated with Production Process
In Section 8.8, enter the total quantity of toxic chemical released directly into the environment or sent off-site for recycling, waste treatment, energy recovery, or disposal during the reporting year due to any of the
These quantities should not be included in Sections 8.1 through 8.7.
The purpose of this section is to separate quantities recycled, used for energy recovery, treated, or disposed that are associated with normal or routine production operations from those that are not. While all quantities released, recycled, treated, or disposed may ultimately be preventable, this section separates the quantities that are more likely to be reduced or eliminated by process-oriented source reduction activities from those releases that are largely unpredictable and are less amenable to such source reduction activities. For ex ample, spills that occur as a routine part of production operations and could be reduced or eliminated by improved handling, loading, or unloading procedures are included in the quantities reported in Section 8.1 through 8.7 as appropriate. A total loss of containment resulting from a tank rupture caused by a tornado would be included in the quantity reported in Section 8.8.
Similarly, the amount of a toxic chemical cleaned up from spills resulting from normal operations during the reporting year would be included in the quantities reported in Sections 8.1 through 8.7. However, the quantity of the reported toxic chemical generated from a remedial action (e.g., RCRA corrective action) to clean
Example 12: Quantity Released to the Environment as a Result of Remedial Actions, Catastrophic Events, or One-Time Events Not Associated with Production Processes.
A chemical manufacturer produces a toxic chemical in a reactor that operates at low pressure. The reactants and the toxic chemical product are piped in and out of the reactor at monitored and controlled temperatures. During normal operations, small amounts of fugitive emissions occur from the valves and flanges in the pipelines.
Due to a malfunction in the control panel (which is state-of-the-art and undergoes routine inspection and maintenance), the temperature and pressure in the reactor increase, the reactor ruptures, and the toxic chemical is released. Because the malfunction could not be anticipated and, therefore, could not be reasonably addressed by specific source reduction activities, the amount released is included in Section 8.8. In this case, much of the toxic chemical is released as a liquid and pools on the ground. It is estimated that 1,000 pounds of the toxic chemical pooled on the ground and was subsequently collected and sent off-site for treatment. In addition, it is estimated that another 200 pounds of the toxic chemical vaporized directly to the air from the rupture. The total amount reported in Section 8.8 is the 1,000 pounds that pooled on the ground (and subsequently sent off-site), plus the 200 pounds that vaporized into the air, a total of 1,200 pounds. The quantity sent off-site must also be reported in Section 6 (but not in Section 8.7) and the quantity that vaporized must be reported as a fugitive emission in Section 5 (but not in Section 8.1).
44 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions

up the environmental contamination resulting from past practices should be reported in Section 8.8 because they cannot currently be addressed by source reduc tion methods. A remedial action for purposes of Sec tion 8.8 is a waste cleanup (including RCRA and CERCLA operations) within the facility boundary. Most remedial activities involve collecting and treating con taminated material.
Also, releases caused by catastrophic events are to be incorporated into the quantity reported in Section 8.8. Such releases may be caused by natural disasters (e.g., hurricanes and earthquakes) or by large scale accidents (e.g., fires and explosions). These amounts are not included in the quantity reported in Sections 8.1 through 8.7 because such releases are generally unanticipated and cannot be addressed by routine process-oriented accident prevention techniques.
By checking your documentation for calculating esti mates made for Part II, Section 5, "Quantity of the Toxic Chemical Entering each Environmental Medium," you may be able to identify release amounts from the above sources. Emergency notifications under CERCLA and EPCRA as well as accident histories required under the Clean Air Act may provide useful information. You should also check facility incident reports and mainte nance records to identify one-time or catastrophic events.
Note: While the information reported in Section 8.8 represents only remedial, catastrophic, or one-time events not associated with production processes. Sec tion 5 of Form R (releases to the environment) and Section 6 (off-site transfers), must include all releases and transfers as appropriate, regardless of whether they arise from catastrophic, remedial, or routine pro cess operations.
8.9 Production Ratio or Activity Index
For Section 8.9, you must provide a ratio of reporting year production to prior year production, or provide an "activity index" based on a variable other than produc tion that is the primary influence on the quantity of the reported toxic chemical recycled, used for energy re covery, treated, or released. The ratio or index must be reported to the nearest tenths or hundredths place (e.g., one or two digits to the right of the decimal point). If the manufacture or use of the reported toxic chemical began during the current reporting year, enter not applicable, "NA," as the production ratio or activity index.
Example 13: Determining a Production Ratio
Your facility's only use of toluene is as a paint carrier for a painting operation. You painted 12,000 refrig erators in the current reporting year and 10,000 refrig erators during the preceding year. The production ratio for toluene in this case is 1.2 (12,000/10,000) because the number of refrigerators produced is the primary factor determining the quantity of toluene to be reported in Sections 8.1 through 8.7.
A facility manufactures inorganic pigments, includ ing titanium dioxide. Hydrochloric acid is produced as a waste byproduct during the production process. An appropriate production ratio for hydrochloric acid is the annual titanium dioxide production, not the amount of byproduct generated. If the facility pro duced 20,000 pounds of titanium dioxide during the reporting year and 26,000 pounds in the preceding year, the production ratio would be 0.77 (20,000/ 26,000).
It is important to realize that if your facility reports more than one reported toxic chemical, the production ratio or activity index may vary for different chemicals. For facilities that manufacture reported toxic chemi cals, the quantities of the toxic chemical(s) produced in the current and prior years provide a good basis for the ratio because that is the primary business activity asso ciated with the reported toxic chemical(s). In most cases, the production ratio or activity index must be based on some variable of production or activity rather than on toxic chemical or material usage. Indices based on toxic chemical or material usage may reflect the effect of source reduction activities rather than changes in business activity. Toxic chemical or material usage is therefore not a basis to be used for the production ratio or activity index where the toxic chemical is "other wise-used" (i.e., non-incorporative activities such as extraction solvents, metal degreasers, etc.).
While several methods are available to the facility for determining this data element, the production ratio or activity index must be based on the variable that most directly affects the quantities of the toxic chemical recycled, used for energy recovery, treated, or released. Examples of methods available include:
(1) Amount of toxic chemical manufactured in 1997 divided by the amount of toxic chemical manufactured in 1996; or
(2) Amount of product produced in 1997 divided by the amount of product produced in 1996.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions 45
ABDOO129911
Example 14: Determining an Activity Index Your facility manufactures organic dyes in a batch process. Different colors of dyes are manufactured, and between color changes, all equipment must be thoroughly cleaned with solvent containing glycol ethers to reduce color carryover. During the preceding year, the facility produced 2,000 pounds of yellow dye in January, 9.000 pounds of green dye for February through September, 2,000 pounds of red dye in November, and another 2.000 pounds of yellow dye in December. This adds up to a total of 15,000 pounds and four color changeovers. During the reporting year, the facility produced 10,000 pounds of green dye during the first half of the year and 10.000 pounds of red dye in the second half. If your facility uses glycol ethers in this cleaning process only, an activity index of 0.5 (based on two color changeovers for the reporting year divided by four changeovers for the preceding year) is more appropriate than a production ratio of 1.33 (based on 20,000 pounds of dye produced in the current year divided by 15,000 pounds in the preceding year). In this case, an activity index, rather than a production ratio, better reflects the factors that influence the amount of solvent recycled, used for energy recovery, treated, or released. A facility that manufactures thermoplastic composite parts for aircraft uses toluene as a wipe solvent to clean molds. The solvent is stored in 55-gallon drums and is transferred to 1-gallon dispensers. The molds are cleaned on an as-needed basis that is not necessarily a function of the parts production rate. Operators cleaned 5,200 molds during the reporting year, but only cleaned 2,000 molds in the previous year. An activity index of 2.6 (5,200/2,000) represents the activities involving tolene usage in the facility. If the molds were cleaned after 1,000 parts were manufactured, a production ratio would equal the activity index and either could be used as the basis for the index. A facility manufactures surgical instruments and cleans the metal parts with 1,1,1-trichloroethane in a vapor degreaser. The degreasing unit is operated in a batch mode and the metal parts are cleaned according to an irregular schedule. The activity index can be based upon the total time the metal parts are in the degreasing operation. If the degreasing unit operated 3,900 hours during the reporting year and 3,000 hours the prior year, the activity index is 1.3 (3,900/3,000).
Example 15: "NA" is Entered as the Production Ratio or Activity Index
Your facility began production of a microwidget during this reporting year. Perchloroethylene is used as a cleaning solvent for this operation and this is the only use of the toxic chemical in your facility. You would enter not applicable, "NA," in Section 8.9 because you have no basis of comparison in the prior year for the purposes of developing the activity index.

ABD00129912
| ' Example 16: Determining the Production Ratio Based on a Weighted Average
At many facilities, a reported toxic chemical is used in more than one production process. In these cases, a ^production ratio or activity index can be estimated by weighting the production ratio for each process based on the respective contribution of each process to the quantity of the reported toxic chemical recycled, used for energy recovery, treated, or disposed.
Your facility paints bicycles with paint containing toluene. Sixteen thousand bicycles were produced in the reporting year and 14,500 were produced in the prior year. There were no significant design modifications that changed the total surface area to be painted for each bike. Thebicycle production ratio is 1.1 (16,000/14,500). You estimate 12,500 pounds of toluene treated, recycled, used for energy recovery, or released as a result of bicycle production. Your facility also uses toluene as a solvent in a glue that is used to make components and add-on equipment for the bicycles. Thirteen thousand components were manufactured in the reporting year as compared to 15,000 during the prior year. The production ratio for the components using toluene is 0.87 (13,000/15,000). You estimate 1,000 pounds of toluene treated, recycled, used for energy recovery, or released as a result of components production. A production ratio can be calculated by weighting each of the production ratios based on the relative contribution each has to the quantities of toluene treated, recycled, used for energy recovery, or released during the reporting year (13,500 pounds). The production ratio is calculated as follows:
Production ratio = (12,500/13,500 x 1.1) + (1,000/13,500 x 0.87) = 1.08
8.10
Did Your Facility Engage in any Source Reduction Activities for this Chemical during the Reporting Year?
The term includes equipment or technology modifica tions, process or procedure modifications, reformula tion or redesign of products, substitution of raw materials, and improvements in housekeeping, main tenance, training, or inventory control.
If your facility engaged in any source reduction activity for the reported toxic chemical during the reporting year, report the activity that was implemented and the method used to identify the opportunity for the activity implemented. If your facility did not engage in any source reduction activity for the reported toxic chemi cal, enter not applicable, "NA," in Section 8.10.1 and answer Section 8.11.
Source reduction means any practice which:
Reduces the amount of any hazardous sub stance, pollutant, or contaminant entering any waste stream or otherwise released into the environment (including fugitive emissions) prior to recycling, treatment, or disposal; and
Q Reduces the hazards to public health and the environment associated with the release of such substances, pollutants, or contaminants.
The term source reduction does not include any prac tice which alters the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics or the volume of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant through a process or activity which itself is not integral to and necessary for the production of a product or the providing of a service.
Source reduction activities do not include recycling, treating, using for energy recovery, or disposing of a toxic chemical. Report in this section only the source reduction activities implemented to reduce or elimi nate the quantities reported in Sections 8.1 through 8.7 -- the focus of the section is only those activities that are applied to reduce routine or reasonably anticipated releases and quantities of the reported toxic chemical recycled, treated, used for energy recovery, or dis posed. Do not report in this section any activities taken to reduce or eliminate the quantities reported in Section 8.8.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions 47
ABD00129913
Example 17: Source Reduction
A facility assembles and paints furniture. Both the glue used to assemble the furniture and the paints contain listed toxic chemicals. By examining the gluing process, the facility discovered that a new drum of glue is opened at the beginning of each shift, whether the old drum is empty or not. By adding a mechanism that prevents the drum from being changed before it is empty, the need for disposal of the glue is eliminated at the source. As a result, this activity is considered source reduction. The painting process at this facility generates a solvent waste which is collected and recovered. The recovered solvent is used to clean the painting equipment. The recycling activity does not reduce the amount of toxic chemical recycled, and therefore is not considered a source reduction activity.
Source Reduction Activities
Spill and Leak Prevention
You must enter in the first column of Section 8.10, "Source Reduction Activities," the appropriate code(s) indicating the type of actions taken to reduce the amount of the reported toxic chemical released (as reported in Section 8.1), used for energy recovery (as reported in Sections 8.2-83), recycled (as reported in Sections 8.48.5), or treated (as reported in Sections 8.6-8.7). The list of codes below includes many, but not all, of the codes provided in the RCRA biennial report. Remember that source reduction activities include only those actions or techniques that reduce or eliminate the amounts of the toxic chemical reported in Sections 8.1 through 8.7. Actions taken to recycle, treat, or dispose of the toxic chemical are not considered source reduction activi ties.

D. How to Determine if Your Facility Qualifies for the
Alternate Threshold and is Eligible for Reporting on
the Form A
D.l Alternate Threshold
On November 30,1994, EPA published a final rule (59 FR 61488) that provides qualifying facilities a reduced reporting option. Eligible facilities wishing to take advantage of this reduced reporting option may report on a simplified two page form referred to as Form A and do not have to use Form R. The "TRI Alternate Threshold for Facilities with Low Annual Reportable Amounts," provides facilities otherwise meeting EPCRA section 313 reporting thresholds the option of reporting on Form A provided that they do not exceed 500 pounds for the total annual reportable amount (de fined below) for that chemical, and that their amounts manufactured or processed or otherwise used do not exceed 1 million pounds. As with determining section 313 reporting thresholds, amounts manufactured, pro cessed, or otherwise used are to be considered inde pendently. This modification does not apply to forms being submitted on or before July 1,1995 (covering the 1994 reporting year). If you fill out a Form A for a toxic chemical do not fill out a Form R for that same chemi cal.
D.2 What is the Form A (certification statement)?
within the facility, treated at the facility (as represented by amounts destroyed or converted by treatment pro cesses), recovered at the facility as a result of recycle operations, combusted for the purpose of energy re covery at the facility, and amounts transferred from the facility to off-site locations for the purpose of recycle, energy recovery, treatment, and/or disposal. These volumes correspond to the sum of amounts reportable for data elements on EPA Form R (EPA Form 9350-1; Rev. 04/97) as Part II column B of section 8, data ele ments 8.1 (quantity released), 8.2 (quantity used for energy recovery on-site), 8.3 (quantity used for energy recovery off-site), 8.4 (quantity recycled on-site), 8.5 (quantity recycled off-site), 8.6 (quantity treated on site), and 8.7 (quantity treated off-site).
D.4 Recordkeeping
Each owner or operator who determines that they are eligible, and wishes to apply the alternate threshold to a particular chemical, must retain records substantiat ing this determination for a period of 3 years from the date of the submission of the Form A. These records must include sufficient documentation to support cal culations as well as the calculations made by the facil ity that confirm their eligibility for each chemical for which the alternate threshold was applied.
The Form A, which is described as the "certification statement" in 59 FR 61488, is a simplified form of re porting and is intended as a means to reduce the com pliance burden associated with EPCRA section 313. The Form A must be submitted on an annual basis for each eligible chemical. Facilities wishing to take avantage of this burden reducing option should submit a Form A for such chemicals meeting the conditions described below, and should not submit a Form R to the EPCRA Reporting Center for that chemical. The information submitted on the Form A includes facility identifica tion information and the chemical or chemical category identity. The information submitted on the Form A will appear in the TRI data base in the same manner that information submitted on Form R appears. An ap proved Form A and a magnetic version of reporting have been included in this 1997 Form and Instructions package.
D.3 What is the total annual reportable amount?
For the purpose of this optional reporting modifica tion, the annual reportable amount is equal to the com bined total quantities released at the facility, disposed
A facility that fits within the category description, and manufactures, processes or otherwise uses no more than 1 million pounds of a listed toxic chemical annu ally, and whose owner/operator elects to take advan tage of the alternate threshold is not considered an EPCRA section 313 covered facility for that chemical for the purpose of submitting a Form R. This determi nation may provide further regulatory relief from other federal or state regulations that apply to facilities on the basis of their EPCRA section 313 reporting status. A facility will need to reference other applicable regulations in order to determine if their actual requirements may be affected by this reporting modification.
D.5 Multi-establishment facilities
For the purposes of using Form A, the facility must also , make its determination based upon the entire facility s , operations including all of its establishments (see 59 j FR 61488 for greater detail). If the facility as a whole is* able to take advantage of the alternate threshold, aj single Form A is required. The eligibility to submit a^ Form A must be made on a whole facility determma' tion. Thus, all of the information necessary to makej the determination must be assembled to the facility! level.
50 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions
ABD00129916
p.6 Trade secrets
EPA is requiring that a facility submit a unique Form A for each toxic chemical meeting the conditions of the alternate threshold. Facilities may assert a trade se crecy claim for a chemical identity on the Form A as on the Form R. Reports submitted on a per chemical ba sis protect against the disclosure of trade secrets. Form A's with trade secrecy claims, like Form R's with simi lar claims, will be separately handled upon receipt to protect against disclosure. Commingling trade secret chemical identities with non-trade secret chemical iden tities on the same submission increases the risk of dis closure.
D.7 Metals and metal compounds
For metal compounds, the category level of 500 pounds applies to the amount of parent metal waste that is re ported on Form R, but the thresholds apply to the amount of metal compounds manufactured, processed, or otherwise used. For Form R reporting involving both listed parent metals and associated metal compounds, the one million pound alternate threshold must be ap plied separately to the listed parent metal and the as sociated metal compound(s). Threshold determina tions must be made independently for each because they are separately listed toxic chemicals.
If the threshold is exceeded for the listed par ent metal but not the associated metal com pounds, then the releases of metal reported on Form R for the parent metal should not include the releases from the metal compounds.
Similarly, separate Form A's should be submitted for all other listed chemicals even if EPA allows one Form R to be filed for two or more listed chemicals, e.g., oxylene, p-xylene and xylene (mixed isomers). For ex ample, if a facility processes in three separate process streams, xylene (mixed isomers), o-xylene, and p-xy lene, and exceeds the conditions of the alternate thresh old for each of these listed substances, the facility may combine the appropriate information on the o-xylene, p-xylene, and xylene (mixed isomers) into one Form R.
Facilities that process o-xylene, p-xylene, and xylene (mixed isomers) in separate process streams and do not exceed the conditions of the alternate threshold for one or more of the compounds, may submit a separate Form A for each of the forms of xylene meeting the alternate threshold and report on Form R for those forms that do not. Similar to reporting on the parent metals and metal compounds described above, facilities that sepa rately process all forms of xylene with individual ac tivity levels within the conditions of the alternate threshold should file a separate Form A for each form of xylene.
The following are specific instructions for completing each part of EPA Alternate Threshold Form A. All of the data elements that appear on the Alternate Thresh old Form A are a subset of and are identical to those on Form R except for the content of the statement to be signed by an authorized individual. The number des ignations of the parts and sections of these instructions correspond to those in Form R unless otherwise indi cated.
If both the parent metal and the associated metal compounds exceed the alternate thresh old, then the facility has the option of filing one Form R for both, using the metal compound name and reporting total releases based on parent metal content.
If neither the parent metal nor the associated metal compounds exceed the alternate thresh old, then the facility should file a Form A for each, since the reporting thresholds must be applied to each listed parent metal and each metal compound category. EPA believes it is appropriate to make this distinction between filing the Form R and Form A because the Form R accounts for amounts of metal released or otherwise managed and Form A verifies that the alternate threshold for each listed chemi cal or chemical category has not been exceeded.

E. Instructions for Completing EPA Alternate Threshold Form A
For all parts of Form A:
1. Type or print information on the form in the format requested. Use black ink. (Using blue ink for the certification signature is suggested as a means of indicating its originality.)
2. All information on the Form A is required.
3. Do not leave items in Parts I and II on the Form Ablank unless specifically directed to do so; if an item does not apply to you, enter not applicable, NA, in the space provided. If your information does not fill all the spaces pro vided for a type of information, enter NA, in the next blank space in the sequence.
4. Do not submit an incomplete form. The certification statement (Part I) specifies that the report is complete as submitted. See page 1 of these instructions for the definition of a complete submission.
Part I. Facility Identification Information
Section 1. Reporting Year
This is the calendar year to which the reported infor mation applies, not the year in which you are submit ting the report. Information for the 1997 reporting year must be submitted on or before July 1,1998.
2.2 If "yes" in 2.1, is this copy sanitized or unsanitized?
Answer this question only after you have completed the rest of the report. Check "sanitized" if this copy of the report is the public version which does not contain the toxic chemical identity but does contain a generic name in its place, and you have claimed the toxic chemi cal identity trade secret in Part I, Section 2.1. Other wise, check "unsanitized."
Section 3. Certification
The Form A must be signed by the owner or operator or a senior official with management responsibility for the person (or persons) completing the form. The owner, operator, or official must certify the accuracy and completeness of the information reported on the form by signing and dating the Form A. Each report must contain an original signature. Unlike the certifi cation statement contained on Form R, the certification statement provided on the Alternate Threshold Form A pertains to the facility's eligibility of having met the conditions as described in Section D or in the Federal Register 59 FR 61488 (November 30, 1994). Print or type in the space provided the name and title of the person who signs the statement. This certification state ment applies to all the information supplied on the form and should be signed only after the form has been com pleted.
Section 4. Facility Identification
Section 2. Trade Secret Information
2.1 Are you claiming the chemical identity on page 1 trade secret?
Answer this question only after you have completed the rest of the report. The specific identity of the toxic chemical being reported in Part II, Section 1, may be designated as a trade secret. If you are making a trade secret claim, mark "yes" and proceed to Section 2.2. Only check "yes" if it is your manufacturing, process ing, or otherwise use of the toxic chemical whose iden tity is a trade secret. (See page 1 of these instructions for specific information on trade secrecy claims.) If you checked "no," proceed to Section 3; do not answer Sec tion 2.2.
4.1 Facility Name, Location, and TRI Facility Identification Number
Enter the name of your facility (plant site name or ap propriate facility designation), street address, mailing address, city, county, state, and zip code in the space provided. Do not use a post office box number as the street address. The street address provided should be the location where the toxic chemicals are manufac tured, processed, or otherwise used. If your mailing address and street address are the same, enter NA in the space for the mailing address. Note that the mail* ing address is provided first, followed by the street ad dress.
52 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions
ABD00129918
If you have submitted a Form R for previous reporting years, a TRI Facility Identification Number has been assigned to your facility. If you cannot locate your TRI Facility Identification Number, please contact the Emer gency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Infor mation Hotline (see page 4).
4.4 Intentionally Left Blank
4.5 Standaid Industrial Classification (SIC) Code
Enter "NA" in the space for the TRI Facility Identifica tion Number if your facility has never filed a Form A (certification statement) or a Form R. If you have previ ously submitted a Form A (certification statement) or a Form R, use the TRI Facility Identification Number that you have been assigned. If you previously submitted a Form A(certification statement) or a Form R, but do not know what it is, contact the EPCRA Hotline (see page 4). If your facility has moved, do not enter your TRI facility identification number, enter NEW FACILITY.
Enter the appropriate 4-digit primary Standard Indus trial Classification (SIC) code for your facility. Table I lists the SIC codes within the 20-39 range. If the report covers more than one establishment, enter the primary 4-digit SIC code for each establishment starting with the primary SIC code for the entire facility. You are required to enter SIC codes only for those establish ments within the facilities that fall within SIC codes 20 to 39. If you do not know your SIC code, consult the 1987 SIC Manual (see page 5).
4.2 Federal Facility Designation
On August 3,1993, Executive Order 12856 was signed which directs federal facilities to comply with RightTo-Know Laws and Pollution Prevention Requirements. Please indicate in 4.2.C. if the reporting facility is a fed eral facility. If the reporting facility is not a federal fa cility, leave this space blank. Form R allows a facility to report multiple submissions for the same chemical if the facility is composed of several distinct establish ments. This data element provides the option of report ing full or partial facility information on Form R, how ever, this is not applicable for those facilities taking ad vantage of the Alternate Threshold and using Form A. An explanation of this is provided in Section D.
4.3 Technical Contact
Enter the name and telephone number (including area code) of a technical representative whom EPA or State officials may contact for clarification of the information reported on Form A. This contact person does not have to be the same person who prepares the report or signs the Form A and does not necessarily need to be some one at the location of the reporting facility; however, this person must be familiar with the details of the re port so that he or she can answer questions about the information provided.
The North American Industry Classification System (NA1CS), is a new economic classification system that will replace the 1987 SIC code system. EPA will ad dress the SIC code change, as it relates to EPCRA, in an upcoming Federal Register notice. This upcoming change does NOT affect the 1997 EPCRA section 313 reporting.
4.6 Latitude and Longitude
Enter the latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates of your facility. Sources of these data include EPA per mits (e.g., NPDES permits), county property records, facility blueprints, and site plans. Instructions on how to determine these coordinates can be found in Appen dix E. Enter only numerical data. Do not preface num bers with letters such as N or W to denote the hemi sphere. Latitude and longitude coordinates of your facility are very important for pinpointing the location of reporting facilities and are required elements on the Form A. EPA encourages facilities to make the best possible measurements when determining latitude and longitude. As with any other data field, missing, sus pect, or incorrect data may generate a Notice of Tech nical Error to be issued to the facility. (See Appendix C: Common Errors in Completing Form R Reports).
4.7 Dun and Bradstreet Number
Enter the 9-digit number assigned by Dun and Bradstreet (D & B) for your facility or each establish ment within your facility. These numbers code the fa cility for financial purposes. This number may be avail able from your facility's treasurer or financial officer. You can also obtain the numbers from your local Dun and Bradstreet office (check the telephone book White
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions 53
ABD00129919
Pages). If a facility does not subscribe to the D & B service, a "support number" can be obtained from the Dun & Bradstreet center located in Allentown, Penn sylvania, at (215) 882-7748 (8:30 am to 8:00 pm. Eastern Time). If none of your establishments has been assigned a D & B number, enter not applicable, NA, in box (a). If only some of your establishments have been assigned Dun and Bradstreet numbers, enter those numbers in Part I, section 4.7.
owned by a foreign entity, enter not applicable, NA, in this space. Corporate names should be treated as par ent company names for companies with multiple fa cility sites. For example, the Bestchem Corporation is not owned or controlled by any other corporation but has sites throughout the country whose names begin with Bestchem. In this case, Bestchem Corporation would be listed as the parent company. Note that a facility that is a 50:50 joint venture is its own parent company.
4.8 EPA Identification Number
5.1 Name of Parent Company
The EPA I.D. Number is a 12-character number assigned to facilities covered by hazardous waste regulations under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). Facilities not covered by RCRAare not likely to have an assigned I.D. Number. If your facility is not required to have an I.D. Number, enter not applicable, NA, in box (a). If your facility has been assigned EPA Identification Numbers, you must enter those numbers in the spaces provided in Section 4.8.
4.9 NPDES Permit Number
Enter the numbers of any permits your facility holds under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) even if the permit(s) do not pertain to the toxic chemical being reported. This 9-character permit number is assigned to your facility by EPA or the State under the authority of the Clean Water Act. If your facility does not have a permit, enter not appli cable, NA, in Section 4.9a.
Enter the name of the corporation or other business entity that is your ultimate US parent company. If your facility has no parent company, check the NA box.
5.2 Parent Company's Dun & Bradstreet Number
Enter the Dun and Bradstreet Number for your ulti mate US parent company, if applicable. The number may be obtained from the treasurer or financial officer of the company. If your parent company does not have a Dun and Bradstreet number, check the NA box.
4.10 Underground Injection Well Code (UIC) Identification Number
If your facility has a permit to inject a waste containing the toxic chemical into Class 1 deep wells, enter the 12digit Underground Injection Well Code (UIC) identifi cation number assigned by EPA or by the State under the authority of the Safe Drinking Water Act. If your facility does not hold such a permit(s), enter not appli cable, NA, in Section 4.10a. You are only required to provide the UIC number for wells that receive the toxic chemical being reported,
Section 5. Parent Company Information
You must provide information on your parent com pany. For purposes of the Form A, a parent company is defined as the highest level company, located in the United States, that directly owns at least 50 percent of the voting stock of your company. If your facility is

part II Chemical Specific Information
Reporting on the Alternate Threshold Form A for met als, metal compounds, and mixed isomers differs some what from Form R reporting. Please refer to Section D for these guidelines.
Section 1. Toxic Chemical Identity
1.1 CAS Number
Enter the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry number in Section 1.1 exactly as it appears in Table II for the chemical being reported. CAS numbers are cross-referenced with an alphabetical list of chemical names in Table II of these instructions. If you are re porting one of the toxic chemical categories in Table II (e.g., chromium compounds), enter the applicable cat egory code in the CAS number space. Toxic chemical category codes are listed below and can also be found in Table II.
Toxic Chemical Category Codes
If you are making a trade secret claim, you must report the CAS number or category code on your unsanitized Form A and unsanitized substantiation form. Do not include the CAS number or category code on your sani tized Form A or sanitized substantiation form.
1.2 Toxic Chemical or Chemical Category Name
Enter the name of the toxic chemical or chemical cat egory exactly as it appears in Table II. If the toxic chemi cal name is followed by a synonym in (parentheses), report the chemical by the name that directly follows the CAS number (i.e., not the synonym). If the listed toxic chemical identity is actually a product trade name (e.g., dicofol), the 9th Collective Index name is listed below it in brackets. You may report either name in this case.
Do not list the name of a chemical that does not appear in Table II, such as individual members of a reportable toxic chemical category. For example, if you use silver nitrate, do not report silver nitrate with its CAS num ber. Report this chemical as "silver compounds" with its category code N740.

If you are making a trade secret claim, you must report the specific toxic chemical identity on your unsanitized Form A and unsanitized substantiation form. Do not report the name of the toxic chemical on your sanitized Form A or sanitized substantiation form. Include a ge neric name in Part II, Section 1.3 of your sanitized Form A.
1.3 Generic Chemical Name
Complete Section 1.3 only if you are claiming the spe cific toxic chemical identity of the toxic chemical as a trade secret and have marked the trade secret block in Part I, Section 2.1 on page 1 of Form A. Enter a generic chemical name that is descriptive of the chemical struc ture. You must limit the generic name to seventy char acters (e.g., numbers, letters, spaces, punctuation) or less. Do not enter mixture names in Section 1.3; see Section 2 on next page.
In-house plant codes and other substitute names that are not structurally descriptive of the toxic chemical identity being withheld as a trade secret are not accept able as a generic name. The generic name must appear on both sanitized and unsanitized Form A, and the name must be the same as that used on your substan tiation forms.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Forms and Instructions 55
ABDOO129921
Section 2. Mixture Component Identity
Do not complete this section if you have completed Section 1 of Part II. Report the generic name provided to you by your supplier in this section if your supplier is claiming the chemical identity proprietary or trade secret. Do not answer "yes" in Part I, Section 2.1 on page 1 of the form if you complete this section. You do not need to supply trade secret substantiation forms for this toxic chemical because it is your supplier who is claiming the chemical identity a trade secret.
2.1 Generic Chemical Name Provided by Supplier
Enter the generic chemical name in this section only if the following three conditions apply: 1. You determine that the mixture contains a
listed toxic chemical but the only identity you have for that chemical is a generic name; 2. You know either the specific concentration of that toxic chemical component or a maxi mum or average concentration level; and 3. You multiply the concentration level by the total annual amount of the whole mixture processed or otherwise used and determine that you meet the process or otherwise use threshold for that single, generically identi fied mixture component.

TABLE II. SECTION 313 TOXIC CHEMICAL LIST FOR REPORTING YEAR 1997 (including Toxic Chemical
Cgjgggjjgg^^^^--^
Specific toxic chemicals with CAS Numbers are listed in alphabetical starting on page 11*3, A list of the same chemicals in CAS Number order begins at the end of the alphabetical list of toxic chemicals. Covered chemical categories follow.
Certain toxic chemicals listed in Table II have parenthetic "qualifiers." These qualifiers indicate that these toxic chemicals are subject to the section 313 reporting requirements if manufactured, processed, or otherwise used in a specific form or when a certain activity is performed. The following chemicals are reportable only if they are manufactured, processed, or otherwise used in the specific form(s) listed below:
Chemical
CAS Number
Qualifier
Aluminum (fume or dust)
7429-90-5
Only if it is in a fume or dust form.
Aluminum oxide (fibrous forms)
1344-28-1
Only if it is a fibrous form.
Ammonia (includes anhydrous ammonia and aqueous ammonia from water dissociable ammonium salts and other sources; 10 percent of total aqueous ammonia is reportable under this listing)
7664-41-7
Only 10 percent of aqueous forms. 100 percent of anhydrous forms.
Asbestos (friable)
1332-21-4
Only if it is a friable form.
Hydrochloric acid (acid aerosols including mists, vapors, gas, fog, and other airborne forms of any particle size)
7647-01-0
Only if it is an aerosol form as defined.
Phosphorus (yellow or white)
7723-14-0
Only if it is a yellow or white form.
Sulfuric acid (acid aerosols including mists, vapors, gas, fog, and other airborne forms of any particle size)
7664-93-9
Only if it is an aerosol form as defined.
Vanadium (fume or dust)
7440-62-2
Only if it is in a fume or dust form.
Zinc (fume or dust)
7440-66-6
Only if it is in a fume or dust form.
The qualifier for the following two chemicals is based on the chemical activity rather than the form of the chemical. These chemicals are subject to EPCRA section 313 reporting requirements only when the indicated activity is performed.
Chemical
CAS Number
Qualifier
Isopropyl alcohol (manufacturing
67-63-0
- strong acid process, no supplier notification)
Saccharin (manufacturing, no supplier notification)
81-07-2
Only if it is being manufactured by the strong acid process.
Only if it is being manufactured.
There are no supplier notification requirements for isopropyl alcohol and saccharin since the processors and users of these chemicals are not required to report. Manufacturers of these chemicals do not need to notify their customers rhat these are reportable EPCRA section 313 chemicals.
[Note: Chemicals may be added to or deleted from the list. The Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Information Hotline, (800) 535-0202, (800) 424-9346 or (703) 412-9877, will provide up-to-date information on the status of these changes . See section B.4.b of the instructions for more information on the de minimis values listed below.]

IM Table II
ABDOO129932
Chemical Qualifiers
This table contains the list of individual toxic chemicals and categories of chemicals subject to 1997 calendar year reporting. Some of the toxic chemicals listed in this have parenthetic qualifiers listed next to them. A toxic chemical that is listed without a qualifier is subject to reporting in all forms in which it is manufactured, processed, and otherwise used.
Fume or dust. Three of the metals on the list (alumi num, vanadium, and zinc) contain the qualifier "fume or dust." Fume or dust refers to dry forms of these metals but does not refer to "wet" forms such as solu tions or slurries. As explained in Section B.3.a of these instructions, the term manufacture includes the gen eration of a toxic chemical as a byproduct or impurity. In such cases, a facility should determine if, for ex ample, it generated more than 25,000 pounds of alumi num fume or dust in 1997 as a result of its activities. If so, the facility must report that it manufactures "alumi num (fume or dust)." Similarly, there may be certain technologies in which one of these metals is processed in the form of a fume or dust to make other toxic chemicals or other products for distribution in com merce. In reporting releases, the facility would only report releases of the fume or dust.
EPA considers dusts to consist of solid particles gener ated by any mechanical processing of materials includ ing crushing, grinding, rapid impact, handling, detonation, and decrepitation of organic and inorganic materials such as rock, ore, and metal. Dusts do not tend to flocculate, except under electrostatic forces. A fume is an airborne dispersion consisting of small solid particles created by condensation from a gaseous state, in distinction to a gas or vapor. Fumes arise from the heating of solids such as lead. The condensation is often accompanied by a chemical reaction, such as oxidation. Fumes flocculate and sometimes coalesce.
Manufacturing qualifiers. Two of the entries to the section 313 toxic chemical list contain a qualifier relat ing to manufacture. For isopropyl alcohol, the qualifier is "manufacturing -- strong acid process." For saccha rin, the qualifier simply is "manufacturing." For iso propyl alcohol, the qualifier means that only facilities manufacturing isopropyl alcohol by the strong acid process are required to report. In the case of saccharin, only manufacturers of the toxic chemical are subject to the reporting requirements. A facility that processes or otherwise uses either toxic chemical would not be required to report for those toxic chemicals. In both cases, supplier notification does not apply because only manufacturers, not users, of the toxic chemical must report.
Ammonia (includes anhydrous ammonia and aque ous ammonia from water dissociable ammonium salts and other sources; 10 percent of total aqueous ammo nia is reportable under this listing). The qualifier for ammonia means that anhydrous forms of ammonia are 100 percent reportable and aqueous forms are limited to 10 percent of total aqueous ammonia. Therefore when determining threshold and releases and other waste management quantities all anhydrous ammonia is included but only 10 percent of total aqueous ammo nia is included. Any evaporation of ammonia from aqueous ammonia solutions is considered anhydrous ammonia and should be included in threshold and release determinations.
Sulfuric acid and Hydrochloric acid (acid aerosols including mists, vapors, gas, fog, and other airborne forms of any particle size). The qualifier for sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid means that the only forms of this chemical that are reportable are aerosols. Aqueous solutions are not covered by this listing but any aero sols generated from aqueous solutions are covered.
Nitratecompounds (water dissociable; reportable only when in aqueous solution). The qualifier for the nitrate compounds category limits the reporting to nitrate compounds that dissociate in water, generating nitrate ion. For the purposes of threshold determina tions the entire weight of the nitrate compound mustbe included in all calculations. For the purposes of report ing releases and other waste management quantities only the weight of the nitrate ion should be included in the calulations of these quantities.
Phosphorus (yellow or white). The listing for phos phorus is qualified by the term "yellow or white." This means that only manufacturing, processing, or other wise use ofphosphorus in the yellow or white chemical form triggers reporting. Conversely, manufacturing, processing, or otherwise use of "black" or "red" phos phorus does not trigger reporting. Supplier notifica tion also applies only to distribution of yellow or white phosphorus.
Asbestos (friable). The listing for asbestos is qualifie by the term "friable," referring to the physical charac-; teristic of being able to be crumbled, pulverized, reducible to a powder with hand pressure. Only manu, facturing, processing, or otherwise use of asbestos . the friable form triggers reporting. Supplier notifica tion applies only to distribution of mixtures or tra , name products containing friable asbestos.

ABDOO129933
Aluminum Oxide (fibrous forms). The listing for aluminum oxide is qualified by the term "fibrous forms." Fibrous refers to a man-made form of aluminum oxide that is processed to produce strands or filaments which can be cut to various lengths depending on the applica tion. Only manufacturing, processing, or otherwise use of aluminum oxide in the fibrous form triggers report ing. Supplier notification applies only to distribution of mixtures or trade name products containing fibrous
forms of aluminum oxide.

appendix a. federal facility reporting INFORMATION
Special Instructions for TRI Federal Facility Reporting
Why Do Federal Facilities Need to Report?
EO 12856, Pollution Prevention and Right-to-Know Re porting, requires federal agencies to comply with the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986 (EPCRA) and the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990 (PPA). By Executive Order, federal facilities must report Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) data, pursuant to the Emer gency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986, Section 313, to EPA beginning with calendar year 1994 data. TRI submissions are due to EPA on July 1 of the year following each reporting (calendar) year.
Identifying Federal Facility Reports
Magnetic Media Reporting
EPA encourages all federal facilities and GOCO facilities to report using either EPA's Magnetic Media reporting soft ware, or one of the commercially available packages. If the GOCO also submits its reports on magnetic media to EPA and to the federal facility, the federal facility may sub mit magnetic media copies of their GOCO TRI reports to EPA. Magnetic media reports must be accompanied by a cover letter which includes:
. - the required Form R certification statement; - a list of the chemicals reported on the federal facility's disk; and - a list, identifying the contractor(s) by name and by TRIFID number if they have an assigned TRIFID number, and the chemicals they reported (which are on the contractors' attachment disk(s))
Federal facility reports are identified as federal by several indicators on the form. The facilitynameand parent com pany name are critical indicators and must be reported as described below. Another critical indicator is the federal facility report box. Federal facilities only should check this box (Form R page 2, block 4.2c) to indicate that the report is from a federal agency for a federal facility. Fed eral facilities should also complete the partial or complete facility blocks (Form R page 2, block 4,2a and 4.2b) as ap propriate. If you are a federal facility reporting for the first time, write "new" in the TRI Facility ID (TRIFID) box, even if a contractor has reported for your facility in the past. The contractor will retain the original TRIFID. You
will be assigned a new TRIFID the first time you report.
How to Report Your Facility Name
Facility name is a critical data element. It is used by EPA to create the TRI facility ID number, which is a unique number designed to identify a facility site. The facility name and TRIFID number are used by all TRI data users to link data from a single site across multiple reporting years. Each federal facility will be assigned a new TRIFID number when the federal report is entered into the Toxics Release Inventory system for the first time. This TRIFID number, generated when the first report is entered into the Toxics Release Inventory System, will be included in future reporting packages sent to federal facilities, and should be used by federal facilities in all future reports.
The "Double Counting" Problem
As structured, the law and the executive order require both regulated industries and the federal government to report TRI data, sometimes for the same site. In order to pre vent duplicate data in the TRI database, which could re sult in "double counting" data for some chemicals and locations, EPA must be able to identify and distinguish the "Government Owned Contractor Operated" (GOCO) reports submitted by the federal contractor from the fed eral reports which contain data for the same site. To ac complish this, federal facility reports must be accompa nied by either 1) exact copies (paper or electronic) of all contractor TRI reports included in the totals reported by the federal facility, or 2) a cover letter which includes a list of the facility contractors which submit TRI reports to EPA, identifying each contractor by name, TRI technical contact, and TRI facility name and address.
Federal facilities should report their facility name on page 1 of the Form Rs (Section 4.1), as shown in the following example:
U.S. DOE Savannah River Site
It is very important that the agency name appear first, followed by the specific plant or site name.
Federal facility GOCOs should report their names as shown in the following example:
U.S. DOE Savannah River Site - Westinghouse Operations.
Appendix A A-l
ABDOO129959
How to Report Your Standard Industrial Clas sification (SIC) Code
Federal facilities should report the SIC Code which most closely represents the activities taking place at the site. Additional guidance on determining your SIC code is pro vided in the Forms and Instructions booklet. The table on the next page contains Public Administration SIC codes 91-97 covering executive, legislative, judicial, administra tive and regulatory activities of the Federal government. Government-owned and operated business establish ments are classified in Major SIC groups 01-89 according to the activity in which they are engaged. For example, a Veterans Hospital would be classified in Group 806 - Hos pitals.
How to Report Your "Parent Company" Name
Federal facilities should report their parent company name on page 2 of the Form R's (Section 5.1) by reporting their complete Department or Agency name, as shown in the following example:
U.S. Department of Energy
National Security Data
DO NOT SUBMIT NATIONAL SECURITY DATA TO; THE EPCRA REPORTING CENTER. National security' data are handled through a separate process. Facilities \ should consult the Guidance for Implementing Executive i Order 12856 documents or call the EPCRA Hotline if their 1
Form R submission involves a national security data claim. %
Who Should Sign Federal Form R Reports? d
Federal Form R reports must be signed by the senior fed-1
eral employee on-site. If no federal employee is on-site,
federal Form R reports must be signed by the senior fed- g
eral employee with management responsibility for the site.
Federal Form R reports must be signed by a federal em
ployee. Contractor employee signatures are not consid- %
ered valid on federal reports.

i
Federal facilities may call EPA's EPCRA Hotline at 1-800- ,
535-0202 to ask specific questions concerning how to sub
mit their Form R reports.

Block 5.2, Parent Company's Dun & Bradstreet Number, should be marked NA.
.V
$
GOCOs should not report a federal department or agency name as their parent company. A federal name in the par ent company name field will classify the report as fed eral, and the GOCO may be identified as a non-reporter.
How to Revise Your Data After It Has Been Submitted
Any TRI Form R submitter may voluntarily revise their submission if they find errors after their reports have been sent to EPA. If a federal facility receives a copy of a revi sion from a GOCO, the facility should revise the federal report, and submit the revised report to EPA and the ap propriate state along with an exact copy of the GOCO's revision. If the revision is to a hardcopy report, the facil ity should photocopy the original form, use a blue or black pen to mark out the incorrect value and write in the cor rected value. The revised report should be submitted to EPA, with an "X" in the revision block on page 1 of the Form R. If the revision is to a diskette, a new diskette should be submitted, containing the data only for the re vised submission, not all the chemicals originally reported. The cover letter must indicate that the submission is a re vision.

APPENDIX C. COMMON ERRORS IN COMPLETING FORM R REPORTS
The common errors in complying with section 313 and completing Form R occur in three areas: Threshold determination errors, errors completing the Form R and release estimation errors. These errors result in omission of required toxic chemical reports, inaccurate data entered into the TRI database, prevention of report data being entered into the database, and the underestimation or overestimation of quantities of toxic chemical reported.
Some errors on the Form R do not allow the data to be processed. These type of errors are usually facility identification/location errors, chemical identification errors, missing pages, invalid Form R, magnetic disk process ing errors, or more than one chemical reported per Form R. EPA will issue a Notice of Significant Error and / ora Notice of Noncompliance to facilities with these types of errors. The notice will indicate that the Form R cannot be further processed and entered into the TRI database and that changes must be submitted to EPA by a certain date or further enforcement actions may be taken.
For other types of Form R completion errors, including missing required data or erroneous data, the facility will be issued a Notice of Technical Error by EPA. This notice will explain the nature of the error and will require that corrections be returned to EPA by a certain date. These type of errors usually involve, for example, the use of invalid codes, missing required data or obvious errors such as incorrect latitude/longitude or facility identification numbers. Other errors include incomplete off-site information and not reporting Section 5 and 6 quantities in the appropriate fields in Section 8 and vice versa.
EPA may initiate an inspection to review the activities at a facility involving reportable toxic chemicals. If, as a result of the inspection, EPA determines that the facility should have submitted a Form R, then EPA may take enforcement action against the facility, which may involve the subsequent assessment of fines. Errors which result in non-reporting violations include incorrect threshold determination, misapplying exemptions, and overlooking activity involving a reportable chemical.
Facilities should also keep copies of submitted Form R reports and all documentation used to complete the report. The documentation should include calculations for threshold determinations, the basis of exemptions applied, and the estimation techniques and data used for all quantities reported on the Form R.

Invalid chemical identification on page 2. The CAS number and the chemical name reported on page 2 must exactly match the listed section 313 CAS number and toxic chemical name. The toxic chemical category code must exactly match the listed category code in Appendix B. A generic chemical name should only be provided if you are claiming the section 313 chemical identity as a trade secret. Toxic chemical names and CAS numbers should be taken directly from the sec tion 313 toxic chemical list (Table II). Mixture names are to be entered in Part II, Section 2 only if the supplier is claiming the identity of the toxic chemical trade secret and that is the sole identifi cation. Mixture names that include the name or CAS number of one or more section 313 toxic chemical(s) are not valid uses of the mixture name field.
Missing certification signature. An original certification signature must appear on page 1 of every Form R submitted to EPA.
Incomplete forms. A complete Form R report for any toxic chemical or toxic chemical category consists of at least five unique pages stapled together. EPA cannot enter into the database data from a package which contains only one page 1, but several page 2's, 3's, 4's, 5's, etc. These are considered incomplete submissions.
Maximum amount on-site left blank. In a sur prising number of Form R submissions. Part II, Section 4 on page 2 is left blank. The appropriate code is required in this field.
Invalid Forms. Be sure to use the correct version of the form for the reporting year in question. You cannot use forms provided for reporting years 1987-1990 to report data for years 19911995. You cannot use Form Rs provided for reporting years 1987-1995 to report data for years 1996 and beyond.

Incorrect entries such as these may require cor rections to be made by the facility. If amounts are reported in units other than pounds (e.g., metric) or with exponential numbers, EPA may require a revision of the Form R to be submitted.
Incorrect latitude and longitude coordinates. Latitude and longitude coordinates are impor tant data on the Form R. These coordinates must Cl be determined using the correct map and correct measuring techniques and reported in degrees, minutes, and seconds. For additional guidance, see Appendix E.
Incorrect completion of trade secret informa tion. The response to trade secret questions in Section 1.2 and Section II.1.3 of a Form R must be consistent. If trade secrecy is indicated, a sani tized Form R and two trade secret substantia- Cl tions (one sanitized) must be submitted in the same package as the trade secret Form R. Leave Section II.1.3 blank if no trade secret claim is being made.
Revisions not identified. Revisions to previ ously submitted data may be provided to EPA by making corrections in blue and black ink on a completed copy of the Form R originally submit ted; if a revision is made for reporting year 1991 or later, mark an "X" in the space marked "Enter "X" here if this is a revision" on page 1; provide an original signature and new date, and send the completed form to the EPCRA Reporting Center. You must also send a copy of the revision to the appropriate State agency. Revisions to data Cl submitted using magnetic media must be sub mitted with a newly signed cover letter.
Duplicate submissions not identified. Facili- Q ties sometimes send multiple copies of the same Form R to insure that EPA received a copy. Duplicate submissions must be identified by printing the word "DUPLICATE" in blue or black

ink at the top of page 1. Failure to clearly identify a duplicate report may result in the duplicate appearance of the data in the TRI database.
Failure to report waste treatment in Section 7A. Waste treatment methods used to treat waste streams containing toxic chemicals, and the effi ciencies of these methods, must be reported on Form R. Information must be entered for all waste streams, even if the waste treatment does not affect the toxic chemical. If no waste treat ment is performed on waste streams containing the toxic chemical, the box marked "Not Appli cable" in Part II, Section 7A must be checked on the Form R. Follow the instructions for reporting waste treatment methods for more than eight treatment methods for a single waste stream.
Incorrect reporting of waste treatment methods in Section 7A. The type of waste stream, influent concentration, and waste treatment method for each waste stream are required to be reported on Form R using specific codes, along with the waste treatment efficiency expressed as percent of re moval. Invalid or missing treatment codes or missing efficiency data are common errors in Section 7A.
Reporting for delisted chemicals. Form R re ports for delisted chemicals or other non-listed chemicals are not required. EPA identifies such reports as nonreportable and notifies the facility that these reports are not required and will not be included as part of the TRI database.
Reporting discharges of mineral acids after neu tralization. When a waste stream containing a mineral acid is neutralized to a pH of 6 or above, the mineral acid is considered 100 percent neu tralized for purposes of EPCRA Section 313 re porting. As a result, the release of a neutralized acid discharge should be reported on Form R as zero.
Not completing all sections of Form R. Every section of Form R must contain data or at least one "NA".
Duplicate quantities in Part II, Sections 5 and 6. A facility's discharge to a receiving stream should not also be reported as a transfer to a POTW and vice versa. Releases to on-site landfills should not also be reported as an off-site transfer to landfill and vice versa.

Reporting on-site energy recovery methods in Section 7B. When a quantity is reported in Section 8.2 as combusted for energy recovery on site, the type of energy recovery system used must be reported in Section 7B, and vice versa.
For example, a facility submits a Form R for nickel compounds. The facility treats wastewa ter containing the nickel compounds and re moves the nickel with a 99 percent efficiency. The facility then further reclaims the nickel and
C-4 Appendix C
ABDOO129971
makes it available for further use in its manufac turing processes. In completing Form R, the facility should report the treatment of the wastewater with a 99 percent efficiency for the removal of the nickel in Section 7A, the method of recov ery for the nickel in Section 7C, and only the amount of nickel made available for further use after reclamation as a quantity recycled on-site in Section 8.4. Any quantities released on-site or disposed off-site, including releases from either treatment or recycling activities, should be re ported in Section 8.1. The facility should not report the quantity of nickel removed from the wastewaters as a quantity treated on-site in Sec tion 8.6 because reporting the same quantity as both treated and recycled on-site incorrectly re ports the nickel as destroyed and overestimates the amount of total nickel managed in waste.
Q Quantities reported in Sections 8.1 through 8.7 must not be reported in Section 8.8 and vice versa. Amounts in Section 8.1- 8.7 are associated with normal or routine generations while the amount in Section 8.8 is not.
For example, 10,000 pounds of a toxic chemical is spilled due to a catastrophic storage tank rupture during the reporting year. Of the total 10,000 pounds, 2,500 pounds volatilized and were re leased directly to the air and the remaining 7,500 pounds were collected and sent off-site for treat ment. The total 10,000 pounds would be re ported in Section 8.8. The 2,500 pound release to air would be reported in Section 5.1 as a fugitive emission, but it would not be reported in Section 8.1. The 7,500 pound transferred off-site for treatment would be reported in Section 6.2, but it would not be reported in Section 8.7.
Reporting toxic chemicals in RCRAwastes. Any time a toxic chemical is contained in a waste that is identified under RCRA, the waste is associated with routine production-related activities, and that chemical is recycled, combusted for energy recovery, treated, or disposed either on or off site, then that quantity of the toxic chemical must be included in the quantities reported in Sections 8.1 through 8.7.
Reporting quantities in Section 8.1, "Quantity released." Quantities of the toxic chemical that are released on-site and reported in Section 5 of
the form should also be included in Section 8.1. Also, quantities of the toxic chemical transferred off-site for the purposes of disposal and reported in Section 6.2 should also be included in Section 8.1.
A facility must include in Section 8.1 the follow ing quantities of the toxic chemical that are re leased on-site, or sent off-site for disposal that are not associated with a catastrophic or non-pro duction related activity.

Do not include in Section 8.1 any of the follow ing quantities: Releases to the environment on-site from re medial actions, catastrophic events, or one-time events not associated with production processes (these quantities are reported in Section 8.8 only). Quantities transferred off-site for disposal from remedial actions, catastrophic events, or one-time events not associated with production processes (these quantities are reported in Sec tion 8.8 only).
Reporting quantities in Section 8.2, "Quantity used for energy recovery on-site." A quantity must be reported in Section 8.2 for the current (reporting) year when a method of on-site energy recovery is reported in Section 7B, and vice versa. An error facilities make when completing Form R is to report the methods of energy recovery used on-site in Section 7B but not report any quantity associated with those methods. An other error is to report a quantity in Section 8.2 if the combustion of the toxic chemical took place in a system that did not recover energy (e.g., an incinerator). It is also incorrect to report a quan tity of the toxic chemical as combusted for energy recovery if the toxic chemical does not have a BTU (British Thermal Unit) value high enough to sustain combustion. Examples of toxic chemicals that do not have heating values high enough to sustain combustion include metals, CFCs, and halons.
Do not include in Section 8.2 any quantities of the toxic chemical associated with non-production related activities, such as catastrophic releases and remedial actions,or other one-time events not associated with routine production practices, that were combusted for energy recovery on-site.
Reporting quantities in Section 8.3, "Quantity used for energy recovery off-site." As in Section 8.2, it is an error to report a quantity in this section if the off-site combustion of the toxic chemical took place in a system that did not recover energy (e.g. an incinerator). It is also incorrect to report a quantity of the toxic chemical as sent off-site for the purposes of energy recovery if the toxic chemi cal does not have a BTU (British Thermal Unit) value high enough to sustain combustion. Ex amples of toxic chemicals that do not have heat ing values high enough to sustain combustion
C-6 Appendix C
include metals, CFCs, and halons. It is an error to not include quantities in Section 8.3 that are reported in Section 6.2 as transferred off-site for the purposes of combustion for energy recovery using the following codes:
M56 Energy Recovery; and M92 Transfer to Waste Broker-Energy Recovery.
Do not include in Section 8.3 any quantities of the toxic chemical associated with non-production related activities such as catastrophic releases and remedial actions, or other one-time events not associated with routine production practices, that were sent off-site for the purposes of com bustion for energy recovery (these quantities are reported in Section 8.8 only).
Reporting quantities in Section 8.4, "Quantity recycled on-site." A quantity must be reported in Section 8.4 for the current (reporting) year when a method of on-site recycling is reported in Section 7C, and vice versa. An error facilities make when completing Form R is to report the methods of recycling used on-site in Section 7C butnot report any quantity recovered using those methods. In addition, only the amount of the chemical that was actually recovered is to be reported in Section 8.4.
Do not include in Section 8.4 any quantities of the toxic chemical associated with non-production related activities such as catastrophic releases and remedial actions, or other one-time events not associated with routine production practices, that were recycled on-site.
Reporting quantities in Section 8.5, "Quantity recycled off-site." It is an error to not include quantities in Section 8.5 that are reported in Section 6.2 as transferred off-site for the purposes of recycling using the following codes:
M20 Solvents/Organics recovery; M24 Metals recovery; M26 Other reuse or recovery; M28 Acid regeneration; and M93 Transfer to Waste Broker-Recycling.
Do not report in Section 8.5 the quantity actually recycled at the off-site facility -- facilities should report the quantity that was sent off-site for the purposes of recycling. Do not include in Section 8.5 any quantities of the toxic chemical associated

supplier notification
REQUIREMENTS
Because manufacturers reporting under section 313 must loiow the toxic chemical composition of the products they use to be able to accurately calculate releases, EPA re quires some suppliers of mixtures or trade name prod ucts containing one or more of the listed section 313 toxic chemicals to notify their customers. This requirement has been in effect since January 1,1989.
This appendix explains which suppliers must notify their customers, who must be notified, what form the notice must take, and when it must be sent.
Who Must Supply Notification
You are covered by the section 313 supplier notification requirements if you own or operate a facility which meets all of the following criteria:
(1) Your facility is in Standard Industrial Classifica tion (SIC) codes 20-39 (see Table I);
(2) You manufacture, import, or process a listed toxic chemical; and
tion is limited to SIC codes 20-39 facilities and their suppliers because only facilities in those SIC codes may be required to report releases under section 313.)
An example would be if you sold a lacquer containing toluene to distributors who then sell the product to other manufacturers. The distributors are not in SIC codes 2039, but because they sell the product to companies in SIC codes 20-39, they must be notified so that they may pass the notice along to their customers, as required.
The language of the supplier notification requirements covers mixtures or trade name products that are sold or otherwise distributed. The "otherwise distributes" lan guage applies to intra-company transfers. However, if the company has developed an internal communications procedure that alerts their other facilities to the presence and content of covered toxic chemicals in their products, then EPA would accept this.
Note that beginning with the first shipments in 1998, facilities in SIC codes 20-39 will be required to also notify facilities in the newly added industry groups.
(3) You sell or otherwise distribute a mixture or trade name product containing the toxic chemi cal to either:
A facility in SIC Codes 20-39.
A facility that then sells the same mix ture or trade name product to a firm in SIC codes 20-39.
Note that you may be covered by the supplier notifica tion rules even if you are not covered by the section 313 release reporting requirements. For example, even if you have fewer than 10 full-time employees or do not manufacture or process any of the toxic chemicals in sufficient quantities to trigger the release reporting re quirements, you may still be required to notify certain customers.
Who Must Be Notified
For each mixture or trade name product that contains a listed toxic chemical, you will have to notify all customers in SIC codes 20-39 or distributors who in turn sell that product to facilities in SIC codes 20-39. Unless you know otherwise, you should assume that the chain of distribu tion includes facilities in SIC codes 20-39. (The notifica

(1) A statement that the mixture or trade name prod uct contains a toxic chemical or chemicals subject to the reporting requirements of EPCRA section 313 (40 CFR 372);
(2) The name of each toxic chemical and the associ ated Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry number of each chemical if applicable. (CAS numbers are not used for chemical categories, since they can represent several individual toxic chemicals.)
(3) The percentage, by weight, of each toxic chemi cal (or all toxic chemicals within a listed cat egory) contained in the mixture or trade name product.
For example, if a mixture contains a chemical (i.e., 12 percent zinc oxide) that is a member of a reportable toxic chemical category (i.e., zinc compounds), the notification must indicate that the mixture contains a zinc compound at 12 percent by weight. Supplying only the weight percent of the parent metal (zinc) does not fulfill the requirement. The customer must be told the weight percent of the entire compound within a listed toxic chemical category present in the mixture.
Appendix D D-l
ABDOO129977
How the Notification Must Be Made
In these cases, you must:
The required notification must be provided at least annu ally in writing. Acceptable forms of notice include letters, product labeling, and product literature distributed to customers. If you are required to prepare and distribute a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for the mixture under the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) Hazard Communication Standard, your section 313 noti fication must be attached to the MSDS or the MSDS must be modified to include the required information. (A sample letter and recommended text for inclusion in an MSDS appear at the end of this appendix.)
(1) (2)
Supply a new or revised notification within 30 days of a change in the product or the discovery of misidentified toxic chemical(s) in the mixture or incorrect percentages by weight; and
Identify in the notification the prior shipments of the mixture or product in that calendar year to which the new notification applies (e.g., if the revised notification is made on August 12, indi cate which shipments were affected during the period January 1 - August 12).
You must make it clear to your customers that any copies or redistribution of the MSDS or other form of notification must include the section 313 notice. In other words, your customers should understand their requirement to in clude the section 313 notification if they give your MSDS to their customers.
When Notification Must Be Provided
When Notifications Are Not Required
Supplier notification is not required for a "pure" toxic chemical unless a trade name is used. The identity of the toxic chemical will be known based on label information.
You are not required to make a "negative declaration." That is, you are not required to indicate that a product contains no section 313 toxic chemicals.
In general, you must notify each customer receiving a mixture or trade name product containing a listed toxic chemical with the first shipment of each calendar year. You may send the notice with subsequent shipments as well, but it is required that you send it with the first shipment each year. Once customers have been provided with an MSDS containing the section 313 information, you may refer to the MSDS by a written letter in subse quent years (as long as the MSDS is current).
If your mixture or trade name product contains one of the listed toxic chemicals, you are not required to notify your customers if:
(1) Your mixture or trade name product contains the toxic chemical in percentages by weight of less than the following levels (These are known as de minimis levels):
If EPA adds toxic chemicals to the section 313 list, and your products contain the newly listed toxic chemicals, notify your customers with the first shipment made dur ing the next calendar year following EPA's final decision to add the chemical to the list. For example, if EPA adds chemical ABC to the list in September 1997, supplier notification for chemical ABC would have begun with the first shipment in 1998.
(2)
You must send a new or revised notice to your customers if you:
(1) Change a mixture or trade name product by adding, removing, or changing the percentage by weight of a listed toxic chemical.
(2) Discover that your previous notification did not properly identify the toxic chemicals in the mix ture or correctly indicate the percentage by weight.
0.1 percent if the toxic chemical is de fined as an "OSHA carcinogen";
1 percent for other toxic chemicals.
De minimis levels for each toxic chemical and chemical category are listed Table II.
Your mixture or trade name product is one of the following:
An article that does not release a listed toxic chemical under normal conditions of processing or otherwise use.
Foods, drugs, cosmetics, pesticides, alco holicbeverages, tobacco, or tobacco prod ucts packaged for distribution to the general public.
D-2 Appendix D
ABDOO129978
Any consumer product, as the term is defined in the Consumer Product Safety Act, packaged for distribution to the gen eral public. For example, if you mix or package one-gallon cans ofpaint designed for use by the general public, notification is not required.
Recordkeeping Requirements
You are required to keep records for three years of the following:
(1) Notifications sent to recipients of your mixture or trade name product;
(3) Your mixture or trade name product is contained (2) Explanations of why a notification was consid
in a waste stream being sent off-site for waste
ered necessary and all supporting materials used
treatment or disposal.
to develop the notice;
Trade Secrets
Chemical suppliers may consider the chemical name or the specific concentration of a section 313 toxic chemical in a mixture or trade name product to be a trade secret. If you consider the:
(1) Specific identity of a toxic chemical to be a trade secret, the notice must contain a generic chemical name that is descriptive of the structure of that toxic chemical. For example, decabromodiphenyl oxide could be described as a halogenated aro matic.
(3) If claiming a specific toxic chemical identity a trade secret, why the toxic chemical identity is considered a trade secret and the appropriate ness of the generic chemical name provided in the notification; and
(4) If claiming a specific concentration a trade secret, explanations of why a specific concentration is considered a trade secret and the basis for the upper bound concentration limit.
This information must be readily available for inspection by EPA.
(2) Specific percentage by weight of a toxic chemical in the mixture or trade name product to be a trade secret, your notice must contain a statement that the toxic chemical is present at a concentration that does not exceed a specified upper bound. For example, if a mixture contains 12 percent toluene and you consider the percentage a trade secret, the notification may state that the mixture contains
toluene at no more than 15 percent by weight. The upper bound v alue chosen must be no larger than necessary to adequately protect the trade secret.
If you claim this information to be trade secret, you must have documentation that provides the basis for your claim.

HOW TO DETERMINE LATITUDE AND LONGITUDE FROM TOPOGRAPHIC MAPS
Latitude and longitude coordinates of reporting facilities are very important for pinpointing facility location and are a required data element on Form R. As such, EPA is encouraging facilities to make the best possible measure ments when determining latitude and longitude. As with any other data element, missing, suspect, or incorrect data may resultinEPA issuing a Notice of Technical Error to the facility.
Latitude is the distance north or south of the equator. Longitude is the distance east or west of the prime merid ian (Greenwich, England). Latitude and longitude are measured in degrees, minutes, and seconds.
60" (seconds) = 1' (minute) 60' (minutes) = 1 (degree)
The most important tool available for determining lati tude and longitude for your facility is the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) topographic quadrangle map. These maps are published in varying degrees of detail. The most detailed version of the topographic quadrangle map is in 7.5 x 7.5 minute increments with a scale of 1:24000 (i.e., one inch on the map represents 2,000 feet). Detailed topographic quadrangle maps are also available in 7.5 x 15 minute increments with a scale of 1:25000 (i.e., one inch on the map represents approximately four miles). It is very important that latitude and longitude measure ments be made from one of the detailed maps described above. Otherwise, measurements will not accurately reflect the location of your facility and could be identified as an error on your Form R submission.
In order to identify the detailed topographic quadrangle map in which your facility is located, the USGS has published an index and a catalog of topographic maps available for each state. Both the index and the catalog are available in many libraries or free of charge from the Distribution Branch of the USGS (address on following page). The Index to Topographic and Other Map Coverage helps you to identify the most detailed map in which your facility is located. To identify the most detailed map, follow these simple steps on how to use the index:
(2) The subsequent pages of the index contain de tailed maps of each general area of interest, in numerical order. Identify the detailed map cor responding to the numbered general area of in terest identified in Step 1.
(3) Within this detailed map, identify the smaller quadrangular area in which your facility is lo cated. This smaller quadrangular section is the specific area of interest. Record first the letter then the number coordinate for your specific area of interest (e.g., E4).
(4) Using the chart found on the same page as the detailed map of the general area of interest, record the name of the specific area of interest in which your facility is located, identified by the letter and number coordinates (e.g., Richmond).
The name of the specific area of interest and its corre sponding letter and number coordinates identify the most detailed topographic quadrangle map in which your facility is located. To identify the map reference code and file number necessary to order this map, follow these simple steps for using the Catalog ofTopographic and Other Published Maps for the state in which your facility is located:
(5) The beginning of the catalog explains the mean ing of the reference code. On the pages following this explanation, there are charts listed alpha betically by the name of the specific area of interest with corresponding file numbers and map reference codes. Using the name of the specific area of interest recorded in Step 4, iden tify the file number and map reference code from the chart for the map in which your facility is located (e.g., file number 00692, map reference code 37977-E4-TF-024-00).
(6) Use the file number and map reference code to obtain the specific topographic quadrangle map in which your facility is located.
(1) The beginning of each index contains a map of These detailed topographic quadrangle maps are avail

The Distribution Branch of the USGS can be reached at:
Distribution Branch of the USGS P.O. Box 25286 Denver Federal Center Denver, CO 80225 (303) 202-4700
Read and record the latitude and longitude (in degrees, minutes, and seconds) for the southeast comer of the small quadrangle drawn in step two. The latitude and longitude are printed at the edges of the map.
To determine the increment of latitude above the latitude line recorded in step 3,
position the map so that you face west;
place the ruler in approximately a northsouth alignment, with the "0" on the latitude line recorded in step 3 with the ruler edge intersecting the point.
ALLOW 5 WEEKS FOR DELIVERY
Without moving the ruler, read and record:
In addition, you may purchase a topographic quadrangle map from the USGS through a USGS Public Inquiry Office. The Public Inquiry Offices are listed for each state on the inside back cover of the Catalog of Topographic and Other Published Maps.
If you need help in determining your latitude and longi tude, once you have the necessary map, the National Cartographic Information Centercan provide assistance:
the measurement from the latitude line to the desired point (the point distance);
the measurement from the latitude line to the north line of the small quadrangle (the total distance).
Determine the number of seconds to be added to the latitude recorded in step 3 by using the ratio:
Western states: (303) 202-4200 Eastern states: (314) 341-0851
Please call in advance of the section 313 reporting dead line to avoid unnecessary delays.
Determining Your Facility's Latitude and Longitude (See diagram next page.)
Point distance Total distance x 150" = increment of latitude between lines
[Note: 150" is the number of seconds of arc for the side of the small quadrangle on a 7.5' map. If you are using a 15' map, the multiplication factor is 300" instead of 150" since each graticule is 5' of latitude or longitude.]
For example:
Once you have obtained the correct map for your facility:
(1) Mark the location of your facility on the map with a point. If your facility is large, choose a point central to the production activities of the facility. If certain structures in your facility are repre sented on the map, mark one of the structures with a point.
Point distance = Total distance =
99.5 192.0
99.5 x 150" 192.0
= =
77.7" 0117,7"
(60" = 1'; 77.7' = 60" + 17.7" = 01' 17.7")
(2) Construct a small rectangle around the point with fine pencil lines connecting the nearest
21/2' or 5' graticules. Graticules are intersections of latitude and longitude lines that are marked on the map edge, and appear as black crosses at four points in the interior of the map.
Latitude in step 3 Increment Latitude of point
3217'30" + 0117.7" 3218'47.7"

(5) To determine the increment of longitude west of the longitude line recorded in step 3,
position the map so that you face south;
place the ruler in approximately an eastwest alignment with the "0" on the lon gitude line recorded in step 3 with the ruler edge intersecting the point.
Without moving the ruler, read and record:
Point distance x 150" = increment of longitude total distance between lines
For example:
Point distance = Total distance =
