Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
Important Information for Reporting Year 1996
The following information updates or corrects the Form. R and Instructions for 1996. No other changes
or modifications have been made to the Form R or Instructions other than these listed here.
D The EPA has made some significant changes
to the Form R. The 1996 Form R has been
reduced to 5 pages, with all instructions for
completing the Form R updated. The EPA
has added two new data elements to Part II
Section 5.4.; 5.4.1 Underground Injection on-
site to Class I Wells and 5.4.2 Underground
Injection on-site to Class H-V Wells. The EPA
has also added two new data elements to
Part II Section 5.5; 5.5.1A RCRA Subtitle C
landfills and 5.5.1B Other landfills. Also,
each previous reporter will receive a pre-
printed first page of the 1996 Form R.
O Important changes and numbers have been
added to the inside cover of the 1996 Form R
and Instructions, for your convenience.
O Color tabs have been inserted into the 1996
Form R and Instructions to help you locate
the different sections within the document.
O All references to reporting year 1996 and all
other date related references have been
changed to reflect the current reporting year.
(i.e., reporting year 1995 has been changed
to reporting year 1996; prior year 1994 was
changed to prior year 1995, etc.) This change
was made for both the Form R and the
instructions.
D 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.
D 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 1-
800-535-0202.
D The States and Regional contact list (Appen-
dices F and G) have been updated.
D On November 30,1994, EPA promulgated an
alternate threshold for facilities with low
total annual reportable amounts. This
alternate threshold became effective starting
with the 1995 reporting year. For additional
information see pages 51-57 of Section D of
these instructions.
O 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.
D The Toxic Chemical List (Table II) has been
updated for Reporting Year 1996 to include
changes to the list that occurred since last
year. EPA has delisted two chemicals,
diethyl phthalate and bis(2-ethylhexyl)
adipate also known as di-(2-ethylhexyl)
adipate. In addition, EPA modified the
listing for hydrochloric acid which now has
the modifier (acid aerosols including mists,
vapors, gas, fog, and other airborne forms
of any particle size). As a result of this
modifier, non-aerosol forms of hydrochloric
acid are no longer reportable. Also, EPA has
reviewed the OSHA carinogen status of the
listed chemicals and updated the de minimis
levels for a number of chemicals on the list.
Carefully check for changes in the de
minimis levels for any chemicals that your
facility manufactures, processes, or otherwise
uses.
D 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.

Toxic Release Inventory Revortin? Form R and Instructions
-------
-------
A. General Information
Submission of EPA Form R, the Toxic Chemical Release
Inventory (TRI) Reporting Form, is required by section
313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-
to-Know Act (EPCRA, or Title III of the Superfund
Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986), Public
Law 99-499. The information contained in Form R
constitutes a "report," and the submission of a report to
the appropriate authorities constitutes "reporting."
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 transferred off-site.
The Pollution Prevention Act, passed into law in Octo-
ber, 1990 (Pub. L. 101-508), added reporting require-
ments to Form R. These requirements affect all facilities
required to submit Form R under section 313 of EPCRA.
The data was required beginning with reports for calen-
dar year 1991.
A completed Form R must be submitted for each toxic
chemical manufactured, processed, or otherwise used
at each covered facility as described in the reporting rule
in 40 CFR Part 372 (originally published February 16,
1988, intheFederalRegister). These instructions supple-
ment and elaborate on the requirements 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.
A.I Who Must Submit this Form
Section 313 of EPCRA requires that reports be filed by
owners and operators of facilities that meet all of the
following criteria.
Q The facility has 10 or more full-time employees;
and
Q The facility is included in Standard Industrial
Classification (SIC) Codes 20 through 39;
and
Q The facility manufactures (defined to include im-
porting), processes, or otherwise uses any listed toxic
chemical in quantities greater than the established thresh-
old in the course of a calendar year.
A.2 How to Assemble a Complete Report
The Toxic Chemical Release Reporting Form, EPA Form
R, consists of two parts:
Q Part I, Facility Identification Information (page 1);
and
Q 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:
Q Part I with an original signature on the certification
statement (section 2); and
Q 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.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 PR
28772) as well as two versions of Form R. One set of forms,
the "unsanitized" version, should provide the actual iden-
tity of the toxic chemical. The other set of forms, the
"sanitized" version, should provide only a generic iden-
tity 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.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 1
-------
In summary, a complete report to EPA for a toxic chemi-
cal claimed as a trade secret must include all of the
following:
Q A completed "unsanitized" version of a
Form R report including the toxic chemical
identity (staple the pages together);
Q A sanitized version of a completed Form R
report in which the toxic chemical identity
items (Part H, Sections 1.1 and 1.2) have
been left blank but in which a generic chemical
name has been supplied (Part n, Section 1.3)
(staple the pages together);
Q A completed "unsanitized" version of a trade
secret substantiation form (staple the pages
together); and
Q A sanitized version of a completed trade
secret substantiation form (staple the pages
together).
Securely fasten all four reports together.
Some states also require submission of both sanitized and
unsanitized reports for toxic chemicals whose identity is
claimed as a trade secret. Others require only a sanitized
version. Facilities may jeopardize the trade secret status
of a toxic chemical by submitting an unsanitized version
of Form R to a state agency or Indian tribe that does not
require unsanitized forms. You may identify an indi-
vidual State's submission requirements by contacting the
appropriate state-designated Section313 contact (see Ap-
pendix F).
A.4 Recordkeeping
Sound recordkeeping practices are essential for accurate
and efficient TRI reporting. It is in the facility's interest,
as well as EPA's, to maintain records properly.
Facilities must keep a copy of each Form R report filed for
at least three years from the date of submission. These
reports will be of use in subsequent years when complet-
ing future Form R reports.
Facilities must also maintain those documents, calcula-
tions, worksheets, and other forms upon which they
relied to gather information for prior Form R reports. In
the event of a problem with data elements on a facility's
Form R, EPA may request documentation from the facil-
ity that supports the information reported. In the future,
EPA may conduct data quality reviews of past Form R
submissions. An essential component of this process
involves reviewing a facility's records for accuracy and
completeness.
A partial list of records, organized by year, that a facility
should maintain include:
Q Previous years' Form Rs;
Q Section 313 Reporting Threshold Worksheets;
Q Engineering calculations and other notes;
Q Purchase records from suppliers;
Q Inventory data;
Q EPA (NPDES) permits and monitoring reports;
Q EPCRA Section 312, Tier II Reports;
Q Monitoring records;
Q Flowmeter data;
Q RCRA Hazardous Waste Generator's Report;
Q Pretreatment reports filed by the facility with
the local government;
Q Invoices from waste management companies;
Q Manufacturer's estimates of treatment efficien-
cies;
Q RCRA Manifests; and
Q Process diagrams that indicate emissions and
other releases.
A.5 When the Report Must be
Submitted
The report for any calendar year must be submitted on or
before July 1 of the following year. Any voluntary revi-
sion to a report can be submitted anytime during the
calendar year, for the current or any previous reporting
year.
A.5a 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 identical to
the version originally submitted to EPA for that reporting
year. The Emergency Planning and Community Right-
to-Know Information Hotline can help you identify the
version of Form R used for each reporting year.
2 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
There are two options for making voluntary revisions: A.6 Where to Send the Form R
The first is to submit a photocopy of your original Form
R submission (from your file), with the corrections made
in red ink. Re-sign and re-date the certification statement
on page 1. For revisions to 1990 and earlier reporting year
submissions, write the words "VOLUNTARY REVISION"
on page 1 of the Form R. 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 R for the
reporting year affected by the correction (s). Complete all
data elements on this Form, and circle with red ink those
data elements that you have changed. Sign and date the
certification statement on page 1. For revisions to 1990
and earlier reporting year submissions, write the words
"VOLUNTARY 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 R data on magnetic media,
the EPA software allows you to revise your Form R data
and submit your revisions on magnetic media as well.
The documentation provided with the magnetic media
submission software contains specific instructions, or
you may call the magnetic media User Support Hotline at
(703)816-4434. If you submitted your Form R data using
software developed by an EPA approved Form R soft-
ware developer, you must contact the software devel-
oper, to determine if the software you used allows for
magnetic media revisions. Please be careful when sub-
mitting magnetic media revisions to resubmit only the
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.
A.5b Where to Submit a Voluntary
Revision of a Previous 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 R (see
Section A.6).
Please note: submissions for the next reporting year are
NOT considered revisions of the previous year's data.
Form R submissions must be sent to both EPA and the
State (or the designated official of an Indian tribe). If a
Form R 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 or certified mail to:
EPCRA Reporting Center
P.O. Box 3348
Merrifield, VA 22116-3348
Attn: Toxic Chemical Release Inventory
Overnight mail and hand-delivered submissions only
should be addressed to:

4301 N. Fairfax Dr.
6th Floor, Suite 650
Arlington, VA 22203
(703) 816-4445
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, Form R submissions should be
sent to the entity designated in the cooperative agree-
ment.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 3
-------
Submission of section 313 reports in magnetic media and
computer-generated facismile formats hasbeen 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 (APR) Software
for Reporting Year 1996" and enclosed diskettes). It also
provides prompts and messages to help you report ac-
cording to EPA instructions. For copies of the diskette
you may call the EPCRA Hotline.
Many firms are offering computer software to assist
facilities in producing magnetic media submissions or
computer-generated facsimiles of Form R reports. To
ensure accuracy, EPA will only accept magnetic media
submissions and computer-generatedfacsimilesthatmeet
basic specifications established by EPA. To determine if
the software offered by a firm meets these specifications,
EPA reviews and approves all software upon request.
Call the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-
Know Information Hotline to identify the software that
has been approved by EPA for the current reporting year.
It should be noted, however, that some States may accept
only hard copies of Form R. If this is the case, a magnetic
media or computer-generated facsimile may be unac-
ceptable.

B. How to Determine If your Facility Must Submit
EPA Form R
(See figure 1 for more information)
B.I 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 total number of 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.
Examples include:
Q 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, or 8.3 full-time employees. 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.
Q 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 calendar year
although they may have been on thejoad 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.
Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes 20-39 are
covered by the rule and are listed in Table 1. The first two
digits of a4-digit SIC code define amajor business sector,
while the last two digits denote a facility's specialty
within the major sector. For a detailed description of 4-
digit 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. Therefore for purposes of TRI reporting,
these state assigned codes should not be used if they
differ from ones assigned using the SIC Manual.
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, Spring-
field, VA 22161, (703) 487-4650. The access number for
the clothbound manual is PB87-100012, and the price is
$30.00.
B.2.a Multi-Establishment Facilities
Your facility may include multiple establishments that
have different SIC codes. If so, 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:
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.
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.

6 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
The value of production 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 "double count-
ing" production in situations where establishments are
engaged in sequential production activities at a single
facility.
Examples include:
Q One establishment in a gold mining facility is
engaged primarily in the exploration of gold
deposits, developing mines, and mining gold.
This establishment deploys severalmeans to mine
the gold, including crushing, grinding, gravity
concentration, froth flotation, amalgamation,
cyanidation, and the production of bullion at the
mine and mill sites (these processes are classified
under SIC code 1041). All of the ore discovered
through this establishment is delivered to a sec-
ond establishment which is primarily engaged in
rolling, drawing, and extruding the gold for sale
and distribution. The smeltering establishment
in the facility is classified under SIC code 3339.
The facility could calculate the value of produc-
tion for each establishment separately (both SIC
code 1041 and 3339 having separate values).
Alternatively, the facility could determine the
value of the smelter operation by subtracting the
value of the ore produced from the value of entire
facility's production (Gross value of facility - SIC
code 1041 value = Value for SIC code 3339).
Q A food processing establishment in a facility
processes crops grown at the facility in a separate
establishment. The facility could base the value
of the products of each establishment on the total
production value of each establishment. Alter-
natively, the facility could first determine the
value of the crops grown at the agricultural es-
tablishment, and then calculate the contribution
of the food processing establishment by subtract-
ing the crop value from the total value of the
product shipped from the processing establish-
ment (Value of product shipped from processing
-cropvalue= value of processing establishment)
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 treatment 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 establishments in a multi-
establishment facility can be, for all practical purposes,
separate business units. Therefore, individual establish-
ments may report releases separately, provided that the
total releases for the whole facility is represented by the
sum of releases reported by the separate establishments
and the compliance determination is based on the entire
facility.
B.2.b Auxiliary Facilities
An auxiliary facility is one that supports another facility's
activities (e.g., research and development laboratories,
warehouses, storage facilities, and waste-treatment fa-
cilities). An auxiliary facility can assume the SIC code of
another covered facility if its primary function is to ser-
vice that other covered facility's operations. Thus, a
separate warehouse facility (i.e., one not located within
the physical boundaries of a covered facility) may be-
come a covered facility because it services a facility in SIC
codes 20-39. Auxiliary facilities that are in SIC codes 20-
39 are required to report if they meet the employee
criterion and reporting thresholds for manufacture, pro-
cess, or otherwise use. Auxiliary establishments that are
part of a multi-establishment facility must be factored
into threshold determinations for the facility as a whole.
B.2.c Facility-Related Exemptions
Laboratory Activities: Listed toxic chemicals that are
manufactured, processed, or otherwise used in labora-
tory activities at a covered facility under the direct super-
vision of a technically qualified individual do not have to
be considered for threshold and release calculations.
However, pilot plant scale and specialty chemical pro-
duction do not qualify for this laboratory activities ex-
emption.
Property Owners: You are not required to report if you
merely own real estate on which a facility covered by this
rule is located; that is, you have no other business interest
in the operation of that facility (e.g., your company owns
an industrial park). The operator of that facility, how-
ever, is subject to reporting requirements.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 7
-------
B.3 Activity Determination
B.3.a Definitions of "Manufacture,"
"Process/' and "Otherwise Use"
Manufacture: The term "manufacture" means to pro-
duce, prepare, compound, or import a listed toxic chemi-
cal. (See Part n, Section 3.1 of these instructions for
further clarification.)
Import is defined as causing the toxic chemical to be
imported into the customs territory of the United States.
If you order a listed toxic chemical (or a mixture contain-
ing the chemical) from a foreign supplier, then you have
imported the chemical when that shipment arrives at
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.
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 limitation, discussed in Sec-
tion B.4.b of these instructions, applies. The de minimis
limitation does not apply to byproducts (e.g., a toxic
chemical that is separated from a process stream and
furtherprocessedordisposed). 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).
Example 1: Coincidental Manufacture
Your company, a nitric acid manufacturer, uses aque-
ous ammonia in a waste treatment system 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).
Process: The term "process" means the preparation of a
listed toxic chemical, after its manufacture, for distribu-
tion in commerce. Processing is usually the intentional
incorporation of a toxic chemical into a product (see Part
II, Section 3.2 of these instructions for further clarifica-
tion). Processing includes preparation of the toxic chemi-
cal 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 instructions) that con-
tains a listed toxic chemical as one component.
Example 2: Typical Process and Manufacture Activities
Q Your company receives toluene, a listed toxic chemical, from another facility, and reacts the toluene with
air to form benzoic acid. Your company processes toluene and manufactures benzoic acid. Benzoic acid,
however, is not a listed toxic chemical and thus does not trigger reporting requirements.
Q Your facility combines toluene purchased from a supplier with various materials to form paint. Your
facility processes toluene.
Q Your company receives a nickel compound (nickel compounds is a listed toxic chemical category) as a
bulk solid and performs various size-reduction operations (e.g., grinding) before packaging the com-
pound in 50 pound bags. Your company processes the nickel compound.
Q Your company receives a prepared mixture of resin and chopped fiber to be used in the injection molding

ExampleS: Otherwise Use
When 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.
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).
B.S.b Activity Exemptions
Use Exemptions. Certain uses of listed toxic chemicals
are specifically exempted:
Q
Q
Q
Q
use as a structural component of the facility;
use in routine janitorial or facility grounds main-
tenance;
personal uses by employees or other persons;
use of products containing toxic chemicals for
the purpose of maintaining motor vehicles oper-
ated by the facility; or
use of toxic chemicals contained in intake water
(used for processing or non-contact cooling) or in
intake air (used either as compressed air or for
combustion).
Article Exemptions. Quantities of a listed toxic chemical
contained in an article do not have to be factored into
threshold or release determinations when that article is
processed or otherwise used at your facility. An article is
defined as 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 conditions of the process-
ing or otherwise use of that item at the facility.
If the processing or otherwise use of similar articles
results in a total release of less than 0.5 pounds of a toxic
chemical in a calendar year to any environmental media,
EPA will allow this release quantity to be rounded to zero,
and the manufactured items remain exempt as articles.
EPA requires facilities to round off and report all esti-
mates to the nearest whole number. The 0.5-pound limit
does not apply to each individual article, but applies to
the sum of all releases from processing or otherwise use
of like articles.
The article exemption applies to the normal processing or
otherwise use of an article. It does not apply to the
manufacture of an article. Toxic chemicals processed into
articles produced at a facility must be factored into thresh-
old and release determinations.
A closed item containing toxic chemicals (e.g., a trans-
former containing PCBs) that does not release the toxic
chemicals during normal use is considered an article if a
facility uses the item as intended and the toxic chemicals
are not released. If a facility services the closed item (e.g.,
a transformer) by replacing the toxic chemicals, the toxic
chemicals added during the reporting year must be
counted in threshold and release calculations.
Q
Q
Example 4: Article Exemption
Lead that is incorporated into a lead acid battery is processed to manufacture the battery, and therefore must
be counted toward threshold and release 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.
Metal rods that are extruded into wire are not articles because their form changes during processing.
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 8-
foot piece of wire is broken into two 4-foot pieces of wire, without releasing any toxic chemicals. Each 4-
foot 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 Form R and Instructions 9
-------
When the processing or otherwise use of an item gener-
ates fumes, dust, filings, or grindings, the article exemp-
tion is not applicable. The toxic chemical(s) in the item
mustbe counted toward the appropriate threshold deter-
mination, and the fumes, dust, filings, and grindings
must be reported as releases or wastes. Scrap pieces that
are recognizable as an article do not constitute a release.
B.3.C Activity Qualifiers
Table II contains the list of individual toxic chemicals and
categories of chemicals subject to 1996 calendar year
reporting. Some of the toxic chemicals listed in Table n
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, pro-
cessed, and otherwise used.
Fume or dust. Three of the metals on the list (aluminum,
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 solutions or slurries. As
explained in Section B.3.a of these instructions, the term
manufacture includes the generation of a toxic chemical
as a byproduct or impurity. In such cases, a facility
should determine if, for example, it generated more than
25,000 pounds of aluminum fume or dust in 1994 as a
result of its activities. If so, the facility must report that it
manufactures "aluminum (fume or dust)." Similarly,
mere 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
commerce. In reporting releases, the facility would only
report releases of the fume or dust.
EPA considers dusts to consist of solid particles gener-
atedby any mechanicalprocessingof materials including
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 distinc-
tion to a gas or vapor. Fumes arise from the heating of
solids such as lead. The condensation is often accompa-
nied 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 relating
to manufacture. For isopropyl alcohol, the qualifier is
"manufacturing — strong acid process." For saccharin,
the qualifier simply is "manufacturing." For isopropyl
alcohol, the qualifier means that only facilities manufac-
turing isopropyl alcohol by the strong acid process are
required to report. In the case of saccharin, only manufac-
turers 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 aqueous
ammonia from water dissociable ammonium salts and
other sources; 10 percent of total aqueous ammonia is
rep or table 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 includedbut only 10
percent of total aqueous ammonia is included. Any
evaporation of ammonia from aqueous ammonia solu-
tions is. considered anhydrous ammonia and should be
included in threshold and release determinations.
Sulfuric acid and Hydrochloric acid (acid aerosols in-
cludingmists, 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 chemi-
cal that are reportable are aerosols. Aqueous solutions
are not covered by this listing but any aerosols generated
from aqueous solutions are covered.
Nitrate compounds (water dissociable; reportable only
when in aqueous solution). The qualifier for the nitrate
compounds category limits the reporting to nitrate com-
pounds that dissociate in water, generating nitrate ion.
For the purposes of threshold determinations the entire
weight of the nitrate compound must be included in all
calculations. For the purposes of reporting 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 phospho-
rus is qualifiedby the term "yellow or white." This means
that only manufacturing, processing, or otherwise use of
phosphorus in the yellow or white chemical form triggers
reporting. Conversely, manufacturing, processing, or
otherwise use of "black" or "red" phosphorus does not
trigger reporting. Supplier notification also applies only
to distribution of yellow or white phosphorus.
10 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
Asbestos (friable). The listing for asbestos is qualified by
the term "friable," referring to the physical characteristic
of being able to be crumbled, pulverized, or reducible to
a powder with hand pressure. Only manufacturing,
processing, or otherwise use of asbestos in the friable
form triggers reporting. Supplier notification applies
only to distribution of mixtures or trade name products
containing friable asbestos.
Aluminum Oxide (fibrous forms). The listing for alumi-
num 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 reporting.
Supplier notification applies only to distribution of mix-
tures or trade name products containing fibrous forms of
aluminum oxide.
B.4 Threshold Determination
Section 313 reporting is required if threshold quantities
are exceeded. Separate thresholds apply to the amount of
the toxic chemical that is manufactured, processed, or
otherwise used.
You must submit a report for any listed toxic chemical
that is manufactured or processed at your facility in
excess of the following threshold:
Q 25,000 pounds during the course of a calendar
year.
You must submit a report if the quantity of a listed toxic
chemical that is otherwise used at your facility exceeds:
Q 10,000 pounds during the course of a calendar
year.
B.4.a How to Determine If Your Facility Has
Exceeded Thresholds
To determine whether your facility has exceeded a sec-
tion 313 reporting threshold, compare quantities of listed
toxic chemicals that you manufacture, process, or other-
wise use to the respective thresholds for those activities.
A worksheet is provided in Figure 2 to assist facilities in
determining whether they exceed any of the reporting
thresholds. This worksheet also provides a format for
maintaining reporting facility records. Use of this
worksheet is not required and the completed worksheet(s)
should not accompany Form R reports submitted to EPA
and the State.
Complete a separate worksheet for each section 313 toxic
chemical or chemical category. Base your threshold
determination for listed toxic chemicals with qualifiers
only on the quantity of the toxic chemical satisfying the
qualifier.
Use of the worksheet is divided into three steps:
Step 1 allows you to record the gross amount of the toxic
chemical or chemical category involved in activities
throughout the facility. Pure forms as well as the amounts
of the toxic chemical or chemical category present in
mixtures or trade name products must be considered.
The types of activity (i.e., manufacturing, processing, or
otherwise using) for which the toxic chemical is used
must be identified because separate thresholds apply to
each of these activities. A record of the information
source(s) used should be kept. Possible information
sources include purchase records, inventory data, and
calculations by a process engineer. The data collected in
Step 1 will be totaled for each activity to identify the
overall amount of the toxic chemical or chemical category
manufactured (including imported), processed, or other-
wise used.
Step 2 allows you to identify uses of the toxic chemical or
chemical category that were included in Step 1 but are
exempt under section 313. Do not include in Step 2
exempt forms of the toxic chemical not included in the
calculations in Step 1. For example, if freon contained in
the building's air conditioners was not reported in Step 1,
you would not include the amount as exempt in Step 2.
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
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 11 -
-------
12 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
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.
Threshold Determinations for On-Site Reuse/
Recycle Operations.
Threshold determinations of listed toxic chemicals that
are recycled or 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 operates 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 anhy-
drous ammonia during the year. The facility has there-
fore "otherwise used" only 2,000 pounds of the covered
toxic chemical and is not required to report (unless there
are other "otherwise use" activities of ammonia which,
when taken together, exceed the reporting threshold). If,
however, the whole refrigeration unit was recharged
with 15,000 pounds of anhydrous ammonia during the
year, the facility would exceed the otherwise use thresh-
old, and be required to report.
This exemption does not apply to toxic chemicals "re-
cycled" off-site and returned to a facility. Such toxic
chemicals returned to a facility are treated as the equiva-
lent of newly purchased 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 anhy-
drous forms of ammonia are 100 percent reportable and
aqueous 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 anhy-
drous ammonia, then 100 percent of those losses must be
counted towards the processing threshold. If the manu-
facturing, 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.
A number of chemical compound categories are subject
to reporting. See Table II for a listing of these toxic
chemical categories. When reporting for one of these
toxic chemical categories, all individual members of a
category that are manufactured, processed, or otherwise
used must be counted. However, threshold determina-
tions must be made separately for each of the three
activities. Do not include in these threshold determina-
tions for a category any chemicals that are also specifi-
cally 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 com-
pounds has been deleted from the copper compounds
category). Specifically listed toxic chemicals are subject
to their own, individual threshold 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
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 13
-------
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.
One other case involving metal compounds 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 com-
pounds and one for chromium compounds. Apply the
total weight of the lead chromate to the threshold deter-
minations for both lead compounds and chromium com-
pounds. 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.
For the category nitrate compounds (water dissociable;
reportable only when in aqueous solution), the entire
weight of the nitrate compound is counted towards the
threshold. A nitrate compound is covered by this listing
only when in water and only if dissociated. As discussed
under the release reporting section, only the weight of the
nitrate ion is included in release reporting.
B.4.b Mixtures and Trade Name Products
Toxic chemicals contained in mixtures and trade name
products must be factored into threshold and release
determinations.
If your facility processed or otherwise used mixtures or
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 in-
cluded 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 in 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 concentra-
tions of toxic chemicals in mixtures when only limited
information is available:
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.
Q 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.
Q If you have no information other than the lower
bound concentration, calculate a midpoint assum-
ing an upper bound concentration of 100 percent.
Q If you only know the upper bound concentration,
you must use it for threshold determinations.
Q In cases where you only have a concentration
range available, you should use the midpoint of
the range extremes.
De Minimis Exemption. A listed toxic chemical does not
have to be considered if it is present in a mixture at a
concentration below a specified de minimis level. The de
minimis level is 1.0 percent, or 0.1 percent if the toxic
chemical meets the OSHA carcinogen standard. See Table
n for the de minimis value associated with each listed toxic
chemical. For mixtures that contain more than one mem-
ber of a listed toxic chemical category, the de minimis level
applies to the aggregate concentration of all such members
and not to each individually. EPA included the de minimis
exemption in the rule as a burden-reducing step, primarily
because facilities are not likely to have information on the
presence of a toxic chemical in a mixture or trade name
productbeyond that available in the product's MSDS. The
de minimis levels are consistent with OSHA requirements
for development of MSDS information concerning compo-
sition.
For threshold determinations, the de minimis exemption
applies to:
Q A listed toxic chemical in a mixture trade name
product received by the facility that is processed
or otherwise used by the facility.
Q A listed toxic chemical manufactured during a
process where the toxic chemical remains in a
mixture or trade name product distributed in
commerce.
14 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
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),alisted toxic chemical;however,italsostatesthatthesolventcontains20percentnon-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 H, 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.
15,000x0.90 = 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.

The de minimis exemption does not apply to:
Q A toxic chemical manufactured at the facility that
does not remain in a product distributed by the
facility. Athresholddeterminationmustbemade
on the annual quantity of the toxic chemical
manufactured regardless of the concentration.
For example, quantities of formaldehyde created
as a result of waste treatment must be applied
toward the threshold for "manufacture" of this
toxic chemical, regardless of the concentration of
this toxic chemical in the waste.
In general, when the de minimis exemption applies to
threshold determinations and the concentration of the
toxic chemical in the mixture is below the de minimis
limitation, then you are not required to report releases
associated with the processing or otherwise use of the
toxic chemical in that mixture. Note that it is possible to
meet the threshold for a toxic chemical on a facility-wide

particular process because that process involves only
mixtures containing the toxic chemical.below the de
mSnimis level.
occurs in the product which affects the weight percent of
a listed toxic chemical or if it is discovered that a previous
notice did not properly identify the toxic chemicals or the
percentage by weight. For more information on supplier
notification, see Appendix D.
If listed toxic chemical concentrations are equal to or
above the de minimis cut-off level, your supplier must
identify the specific components as they appear in Table
n and provide their percentage composition by weight in
the mixture or product. If your supplier maintains that
the identity of a toxic chemical is a trade secret, a generic
identity that is structurally descriptive must be supplied
on the notice. A maximum concentration level must be
provided if your supplier contends that chemical compo-
sition information is a trade secret. In either case, you do
not need to make a trade secret claim on behalf of your
supplier (unless you consider your use of the proprietary
mixture a trade secret). On Form R, identify the toxic
chemical you are reporting according to its generic name
provided in the notification. (See the instructions for Part
II, Section 2 for more information). If the listed toxic
chemical is present below the de minimis level, no notifi-
cation is required.
Application of the de minimis exemption to process
streams must also be reviewed. Mixtures containing
toxic chemicals can be added to a process or generated
within a process. A facility is required to consider and
report releases from the process once the de minimis
concentration level has been exceeded. Allreleases of the For all parts of Form R:
toxic chemical from the process which occur after the de
minimis exemption has been exceeded are then subject to
reporting, regardless of whether or not the toxic chemical
concentration later falls to a level below the de minimis
exemption.

Supplier Notification. Beginning in 1989, suppliers of
facilities in SIC codes 20-39 are required to develop and
distribute a notice if the mixtures or trade name products

distributed to other companies in SIC codes 20-39 or to
companies that sell or otherwise distribute the product to
facilities in SIC codes 20-39. If a MSDS is not required for
the mixture or trade name product, the notification must
be in written form (i.e., letter). Otherwise, the notice must
be incorporated into or attached to the MSDS for that

Section 4. Facility Identification
4.1 Facility Name, Location, and TRI Facility
Identification Number
Enter the name of your facility (plant site name or appro-
priate facility designation), street address, mailing ad-
dress, 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 manufactured,
processed, or otherwise used. If your mailing address
and street address are the same, enter NA in the space for
the mailing address.
If you have submitted a Form R for previous reporting
years, a TRI Facility Identification Number has been
assigned to your facility. The TRI Facility Identification
Number appears (with other facility-specific informa-
tion) on a pre-printed page 1 of the Form R that is attached
to the cover of this Toxic Chemical Release Inventory
Instructions for 1996. Please do not destroy this page 1.
When completing your Form R reports for 1996, you may
use this pre-printed page one instead of filling out a new
page one.
If your pre-printed page 1 is missing information re-
quired on Form R, insert that information in the appropri-
ate box in Part I, Section 4.1. For example, if your
pre-printed page 1 contains your street address and not
your mailing address, enter your mailing address in the
space provided.
If you do not have a pre-printed page 1, but know your
TRIFacilityldentificationNumber,complete Section4. If
you do not know your TRI Facility Identification Num-
ber, contact the EPCRA Hotline (see page 4).
Enter "NA" in the space for the TRI facility Identification
number if this is your first submission of a Form R.
4.2 Full or Partial Facility Indication
A covered facility must report all releases and source
reduction and recycling activities of a listed toxic chemi-
cal if it meets a reporting threshold for that toxic chemical.
However, if the facility is composed of several distinct
establishments, EPA allows these establishments to sub-
mit separate reports for the toxic chemical as long as all
releases 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 Form R and Instructions
-------
Section 313 requires reports by "facilities," which are
defined as "all buildings, equipment, structures, and
other stationary items which are located on a single site or
on 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
performed 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 source
reduction and recycling activities involving the toxic
chemical from the entire facility 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 oth-
erwise use or release a toxic chemical, you do not have to
submit a report for that establishment or group of estab-
lishments. (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
information 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
same 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
and does not necessarily need to be someone at the
location of the reporting facility. If this space is left blank,
the technical contact will be listed as the public contact in
the 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).
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 notpreface 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 Alleritown, 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.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 19
-------
4.8 EPA Identification Number
The EPA I.D. Number is a 12-character number assigned
to facilities covered by hazardous waste regulations un-
der the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).
Facilities not covered by RCRA are 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 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 requked 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
whose names begin with Bestchem. In this case, Bestchem
Corporation would be listed as the parent company.
5.1 Name of 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
Enter the Dun and Bradstreet Number for your ultimate
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.

Q Source reduction activities.
Section 1. Toxic Chemical Identity
1.1 CAS Number
Enter the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry num-
ber in Section 1.1 exactly as it appears in Table II for the
chemical being reported. CAS numbers are cross-refer-
enced with an alphabetical list of chemical names in Table
II of these instructions. If you are reporting one of the
toxic chemical categories in Table II (e.g., chromium
compounds), enter the applicable category 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
N010 Antimony compounds

If you are making a trade secret claim, you must 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
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 chemi-
cal 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 number. 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
R and unsanitized substantiation form. Do not report the
name of the toxic chemical on your sanitized Form R or
sanitized substantiation form. Include a generic name in
Part II, Section 1.3 of your sanitized Form R report.
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
corner 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.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 21
-------
1.3 Generic Chemical 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.gv
numbers, letters, spaces, punctuation) or less. Do not
enter mixture names in Section 1.3; see Section 2 below.
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 complete this section if you have completed
Section 1 of Part n. 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
Enterihe-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.
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.
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.
24, and figure 3, pg. 26). 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:
a. Produce - the toxic chemical is produced at the
facility.
b. Import - the toxic chemical is imported by the
facility into the Customs Territory of the United
States. (See Section B.S.a of these instructions for
further clarification of import.)
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. If
you check this block, you must also check at least
one item in Part II, Section 3.2 or 3.3.

For sale/distribution -the toxic chemical is pro-
duced or imported specifically for sale or distri-
bution outside the manufacturing facility.
As a byproduct - the toxic chemical is produced
coincidentally during the production, 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 and released as a result of waste treatment
or disposal are also considered byproducts.
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 (incorpo-
rative activities)
As a reactant - A natural or synthetic toxic chemi-
cal used in chemical reactions for the manufac-
ture of another chemical 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.
As an article component - A toxic chemical that
becomes an integral component of an article dis-
tributed for industrial, trade, or consumer use.
One example is the pigment components of paint
applied to a chair that is sold.
Repackaging- Processing or preparation of a toxic
chemical (or product mixture) for distribution in
commerce in a different form, state, or quantity.
This includes, but is not limited to, the transfer of
material from a bulk container, such as a tank
truck to smaller containers such as cans or bottles.
3.3
a.
Otherwise Use the Toxic Chemical
(non-incorporative activities)
As a chemical processing aid - A toxic chemical that
is added to a reaction mixture to aid in the manu-
facture or synthesis of another chemical sub-
stance but is not intended to remain in or become
part of the product or product mixture. Ex-
amples of such toxic chemicals include, but are
not limited to, process solvents, catalysts, inhibi-
tors, initiators, reaction terminators, and solu-
tion buffers.
As a manufacturing aid - A toxic chemical that aids
the manufacturing process but does not become
part of the resulting product and is not added to
the reaction mixture during the manufacture or
synthesis of another chemical substance. Ex-
amples include, but are not limited to, process
lubricants, metalworking fluids, coolants, refrig-
erants, and hydraulic fluids.
Ancillary or other use - A toxic chemical that is
used at a facility for purposes other than aiding
chemical processing or manufacturing as de-
scribed above. Examples include, but are not
limited to, cleaners, degreasers, lubricants, fuels,
and toxic chemicals used for treating wastes.
Section 4. Maximum Amount of the Toxic
Chemical On-Site at Any Time
During the Calendar Year
For data element 4.1 of Part II, insert the code (see codes
on next page) that indicates the maximum quantity of the
toxic chemical (e.g., in storage tanks, process vessels, on-
site shipping containers) at your facility at any time
during the calendar year. If the toxic chemical was
present at several locations within your facility, use the
maximum total amount present at the entire facility at
any one time.

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 n form
your facility may have prepared under Section 312 of
EPCRA. See Part 40, Section 372.30(b) of the Code of
Federal Regulations for further information on how to
calculate the weight of the toxic chemical in the mixture
or trade name product. For toxic chemical "categories
(e.gvnickelcompounds), include all chemical compounds
m the category when calculating the maximum amount,
using the entire weight of each compound.
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.
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. Also, amounts of listed metal compounds (e.g.,
copper compounds) that are lost due to normal corrosion
of process equipment do not have to be considered as
releases of copper compounds from the facility.
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 requked.
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.
Q Your facility also processes alpha-naphthylamine, as a reactant to produce N-methyl-alpha-naphthy-
lamine, a chemical not on the section 313 list.
24 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
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
air 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, sampling connections, open-ended
lines, 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-
tions (using purchase records, inventories, engineering
knowledge or process specifications of the quantity of the
toxic chemical entering product, hazardous waste mani-
fests, or monitoring records) may be useful in estimating
fugitive emissions.
5.2 Stack or Point Air Emissions
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.
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 the contributionfrom
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 complete 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 mineral acid is discharged
below pH 6, then releases of the mineral acid must be
reported. In this case, pH measurements may be used to
estimate the amount of mineral acid released.
5.4.1 Underground Injection 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.
5.3
Discharges to Receiving Streams or 5.4.2 Underground Injection On-Site to Class
Water Bodies II-V Wells
In Section 5.3 you are to enter the narne(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 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).

26 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
5.5.1A RCRA Subtitle C landfills —Typically, the ulti-
mate disposal method for hazardous wastes is landfilling
in RCRA Subtitle C landfills. Enter the total amount of the
toxic chemical that was placed in RCRA Subtitle C land-
fills. 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.
5.5.2 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
land, any volatilization of listed toxic chemicals into the
air occurring during the disposal operation must be in-
cluded in the total fugitive air releases reported in Part II,
Section 5.1 of Form R.
5.5.3 Surface impoundment — A surface impoundment
is a natural topographic depression, man-made excava-
tion, or diked area formed primarily of earthen materials
(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-
charge, it would be considered to be a surface impound-
ment used as a final disposal method.
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 pipe-
line 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
Only on-site releases of the toxic chemical to the environ-
ment for the calendar year are to be reported in this
section of Form R. The total releases from your facility do
not include transfers or shipments of the toxic chemical
from your facility for sale or distribution in commerce, or
of wastes to other facilities for waste treatment, 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 sig-
nificant 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:
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 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 0.5 pounds
or greater, you should either enter the range code "A" for
"1-10" or enter "1" in column A. If the release is less than
0.5 pounds, you may round to zero and enter "0" in
column A.
Note that total annual releases of less than 0.5 pounds
from the processing or otherwise use of an article main-
tain the article status of that item. Thus, if the only
releases you have are from processing an article, and such
releases are less than 0.5 pounds per year, you are not
required to submit a report for that toxic chemical. The 0.5
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 27
-------
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,
or 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
occur or the annual aggregate release was less than 0.5
pounds, report zero. However, if you report zero re-
leases, a basis of estimate must be provided in column B.
For example, if nitric acid is involved in the facility's
processing activitiesbutthefacilityneutralizes 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, Section5.4.1 and 5.4.2 of Form
R. Also, if the facility does not landfill the acidic waste,
NA would be checked in Part H, 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.
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-
neering calculations. 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 ho w to calculate the concentration
and weight of the toxic chemical in the mixture or trade
name product.
If you are reporting a toxic chemical category listed in
Table II of these instructions rather than a specific toxic
chemical, you must combine the release data for all
chemicals in the listed toxic chemical category (e.g., all
glycol ethers or all chlorophenols) and report the aggre-
gate amount for that toxic chemical category. Do not
report releases of each individual toxic chemical in that
category separately. For example, if your facility releases
3,000 pounds per year of 2-chlorophenol, 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 releases 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.
28 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
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.
E- Estimate is based on published emission factors,
such as those relating release 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 treatment, even if the composition of the
waste before treatment was fully identified
through monitoring data.
For example, if 40 percent of stack emissions of the
reported toxic chemical were derived using monitoring
data, 30 percent by mass balance, and 30 percent by
emission factors, you would enter the code letter "M" for
monitoring.
If the monitoring data, mass balance, or emission factor
used to estimate the release is not specific to the toxic
chemical being reported, the form should identify the
estimate as based on engineering calculations or best
engineering judgment.
If a mass balance calculation yields the flow rate of a
waste, but the quantity of reported toxic chemical in the
waste is based on solubility data, report "O" because
"engineering calculations" were used as the basis of
estimate of the quantity of the toxic chemical in the waste.
If the concentration of the toxic chemical in the waste was
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 indicatedbecause moni-
toring data was used to estimate the concentration of the
waste.
Mass balance (C) should only be indicated if it is directly
used to calculate the mass (weight) of toxic chemical
released. Monitoring data should be indicated as the
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, for
example, if the monitoring data relates to a concentration
of the toxic chemical in other process streams within the
facility.
It is important to realize that the accuracy and proficiency
of release estimation will improve over time. However
submitters are not required to use new emission factors or
estimation techniques to revise previous Form R submis-
sions.
5. Column C Percent From Stormwater
This column relates only to Section 5.3 — discharges to
receiving streams or water bodies. If your facility has
monitoring data on the amount of the toxic chemical in
stormwater runoff (including unchanneled runoff), you
must include that quantity of the toxic chemical in your
water release in column A and indicate the percentage of
the total quantity (by weight) of the toxic chemical con-
tributed by stormwater in column C (Section 5.3C).
If your facility has monitoring data on the toxic chemical
and an estimate of flow rate, you must use this data to
determine the percent stormwater.
If you have monitored stormwater but did not detect the
toxic chemical, enter zero (0) in column C. If your facility
has no stormwater monitoring data for the chemical,
enter not applicable, "NA," in this space on the form.
If your facility does not have periodic measurements of
stormwater releases of the toxic chemical, but has submit-
ted chemical-specific monitoring data in permit applica-
tions, then these data must be used to calculate the
percent contribution from stormwater. Rates of flow can
be estimated by multiplying the annual amount of rain-
fall by the land area of the facility and then multiplying
that figure by the runoff coefficient. The runoff coeffi-
cient represents the fraction of rainfall that does not seep
into the ground but runs off as stormwater. The runoff
coefficient is directly related to how the land in the
drainage area is used. (See table on next page)

Choose the most appropriate runoff coefficient for your
site or calculate a weighted-average coefficient, which
takes into account different types of land use at your
facility:
Weighted-average runoff coefficient =
(Area 1 % of total)(Cl) + (Area 2 % of total)(C2) +
(Area 3 % of total)(C3) +... + (Area i % of total)(Ci)
where Ci = runoff coefficient for a specific
land use of Area i.
Section 6 Transfers of the Toxic
Chemical in Wastes to Off-Site
Locations
You must report in this section the total annual quantity
of the toxic chemical in wastes sent to any off-site facility
for the purposes of waste treatment, disposal, recycling,
or energy recovery. Report the total amount of the toxic
chemical transferred off-site after any on-site waste treat-
ment, recycling, or removal is completed. Report zero for
transfers of listed mineral acids if they have been neutral-
ized to a pH of 6 or above prior to discharge to a Publicly
Owned Treatment Works (POTW).
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._. If
you do not ship or transfer wastes containing the re-
ported toxic chemical to other off-site locations, enter not
applicable, NA, in the box for the off-site location's EPA
Identification Number in Section 6.2._.
Important: You must number the boxes for reporting the
information for each POTW or other off-site location in
Sections 6.1 and 6.2. In the upper left hand corner of each
box, the section number is either 6.1.B._. or 6.2._.
If you report a transfer of the listed toxic chemical to one
or more POTWs, number the boxes in Section 6.1.B as
6.1.B1,6.1.B.2, etc. If you transfer the listed toxic chemi-
cal to more than two POTWs, photocopy page 3 of Form
R as many times as necessary and then number the boxes
consecutively for each POTW. At the bottom of Section 6.
you will find instructions for indicating the total number
of page 3s that you are submitting as part of Form R, as
well as indicating the sequence of those pages. For
example, your facility transfers the reported toxic chemi-
cal in wastewaters to three POTWs. You would photo-
copy page 3 once, indicate at the bottom of each page 3
that there are a total of two page 3s and then indicate the
first and second page 3. The boxes for the two POTWs on
the first page 3 would be numbered 6.1.B.1 and 6.1.B.2,
while the box for third POTW on the second page 3 would
be numbered 6.I.B.3..
If you report a transfer of the listed toxic chemical to one
or more other off-site locations, number the boxes in
section 6.2 as 6.2.1,6.2.2, etc. If you transfer the listed toxic
chemical to more than two other off-site locations, photo-
copy page 4 of Form R as many times as necessary and
then number the boxes consecutively for each off-site
location. At the bottom of Section 6.2 you will find
instructions for indicating the total number of page 4s
that you are submitting as part of Form R as well as
indicating the sequence of those pages. For example,
your facility transfers the reported toxic chemical to three
other off-site locations. You would photocopy page 4
once, indicate at the bottom of Section 6.2 on each page 4
that there are a total of two page 4s and then indicate the
first and second page 4. The boxes for the two off-site
locations on the first page 4 would be numbered 6.2.1 and
6.2.2, while the box for the third off-site location on the
second page 4 would be numbered 6.2.3.

Example 8: Stonnwater Runoff
Your facility is located in a semi-arid region of the United States which has an annual precipitation (including
snowfall) of 12 inches of rain. (Snowfall should be converted to the equivalent inches of rain; assume one foot of
snow is equivalent to one inch of rain.) The total area covered by your facility is 42 acres (about 170,000 square meters
or 1,829,520 square feet). The area of your facility is 50 percent unimproved area, 10 percent asphaltic streets, and
40 percent concrete pavement.
The total stormwater runoff from your facility is therefore calculated as follows:
Runoff
Land Use % Total Area Coefficient
Unimproved area 50 0.20
Asphaltic streets 10 0.85
Concrete pavement 40 0.90
Weighted-average runoff coefficient = (50%) x (0.20) + (10%) x (0.85) + (40%) x (0.90) = 0.545
(Rainfall) x (land area) x (conversion factor) x (runoff coefficient) = stormwater runoff
(1 foot) x (1,829,520 ft2) x (7.48 gal/ft3) x (0.545) = 7,458,221 gallons/year
Total stormwater runoff = 7.45 million gallons/year
Your stormwater monitoring data shows that the average concentration of zinc in the stormwater runoff from
your facility from a biocide containing a zinc compound is 1.4 milligrams per liter. The total amount of zinc
discharged to surface water through the plant wastewater discharge (non-stormwater) is 250 pounds per year.
The total amount of zinc discharged with stormwater is:
(7,458,000 gallons stormwater)x(3.785 liters/gallon) = 28,228,530 liters stormwater
(28,228,530 liters stormwater)x(1.4 mg.zinc/liter) = 31,519.9 grams zinc=87 pounds zinc.
The total amount of zinc discharged from all sources of your facility is:
250 pounds zinc from wastewater discharged
+87 pounds zinc from stormwater runoff
337 pounds zinc total water discharged
Round to 340 pounds of zinc reported in section 5.3 column A on Form R
The percentage of zinc discharge through stormwater reported in section 5.3 column C on Form is:

6.1 Discharges to Publicly Owned Treatment
Works (POTW)
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.I.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 POTWs name in Section 6.1.B._.
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 the total amount transferred is less than
1,000 pounds, you may report a range by entering the
appropriate range code. The following reporting range

6.1.A.2 Basis of Estimate
You must identify the basis for your estimate of the total
quantity of the reported toxic chemical in the wastewa-
ters transferred to all POTWs. Enter one of the following
letter codes that applies to the method by which the
largest percentage of the estimate was derived.
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 relating release 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
In Section 6.2 enter the EPA Identification Number, name,
and address for each off-site location to which your
facility ships or transfers wastes containing the reported
toxic chemical for the purposes of waste treatment, dis-
posal, recycling, or energy recovery. Also estimate the
quantity of the reported toxic chemical transferred and
the basis upon which the estimate was made. If appropri-
ate, you must report multiple activities for each off-site
location. For example, if your facility sends a reported
toxic chemical in waste to an off-site location where some
of the toxic chemical is to be recycled while the remainder
of the quantity transferred is to be treated, you must
report both the waste treatment and recycle activities,
along with the quantity associated with each activity.
If your facility transfers a reported toxic chemical to an
off-site location and that off-site location performs more
than four activities on that chemical, provide the neces-
sary information in Box 6.2.1 for the off-site facility and
the first four activities. Provide the information on the
remainder of the activities in Box 6.2.2 and provide again
the off-site facility identification and location informa-
tion.
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 location'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
classified 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 (PIPS) code for that country in the county field
of the address for the off-site facility. The most commonly
used FIPS codes are listed below. To obtain a PIPS code
for a country not listed here, contact the EPCRA Hotline.

Note: You must distinguish between incineration, which
is always considered waste treatment, and combustion
where energy is actually recovered. When the reported
toxic chemical has a significant heat of combustion value,
and is transferred to an off-site location for combustion in
an industrial kiln, furnace, or boiler, report the quantity
as used for the purposes of energy recovery. However,
toxic chemicals with little or no heat of combustion value
(e.g., metals, chlorofluorocarbons) must be reported as
treated.
6.2 Column A Total Transfers
For each off-site location, enter the total amount, in pounds,
of the toxic chemical that is contained in the waste trans-
ferred to that location. Do not enter the total poundage of
the waste. If the total amount transferred is less than 1,000
pounds, you may report a range by entering the appropri-
ate range code. The following reporting range codes are
to be used:
Reporting Range fin pounds^
1-10
11-499
500-999
If you transfer the toxic chemical in wastes to an off-site
facility for distinct and multiple purposes, you must
report those activities for each off-site location, along
with the quantity of the reported toxic chemical associ-
ated with each activity. For example, your facility trans-
fers a total of 15,000 pounds of toluene to an off-site
location that will use 5,000 pounds for the purposes of
energy recovery, enter 7,500 pounds into a recovery
process, and dispose of the remaining 2,500 pounds.
These quantities and the associated activity codes must
be reported separately in Section 6.2. (See Figure 4 for a
hypothetical Section 6.2 completed for two off-site loca-
tion, one of which receives the transfer of 15,000 pounds
of toluene as detailed.) If you need to report more than
four off-site transfers (involving different waste manage-
ment) to one location, continue reporting of these trans-
fers by listing the same location in the next off-site location
section.
Do not double or multiple count amounts transferred off-
site. For example, when a reported toxic chemical is sent
to an off-site facility for sequential activities and the
specific quantities associated with each activity are un-
known, report only a single quantity (the total quantity
transferred to that off-site location) along with a single
activity code. In such a case, report the activity applied to
the majority of the reported toxic chemical sent off-site,
not the ultimate disposition of the toxic chemical. For
example, when a toxic chemical is first treated and then
recovered with the majority of the toxic chemical being
treated and only a fraction subsequently recovered, re-
port the appropriate waste treatment activity along with
the quantity.

Example 9: Calculating Releases and Transfers
Your facility disposes of 14,000 pounds of lead chromate (PbCrO4.PbO) in an on-site landfill and transfers 16,000
pounds of lead selenite (PbSeO4) to an off-site land disposal facility. You would therefore be submitting three
eparate 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:
.ead Chromate (PbCrO4.PbO) -
Lead 2Pb-
Chromium 1 Cr -
Lead chromate is therefore (% by weight)
Molecular weight = 546.37
Molecular weight = 207.2 x 2 = 414.4
Molecular weight = 51.996
(414.4/546.37) = 75.85% lead and
(51.996/546.37) = 9.52% chromium
Lead Selenite (PbSeO4)
Lead 1 Pb
Selenium 1 Se
Lead selenite is therefore (% by weight)
Molecular weight = 350.17
Molecular weight = 207.2
Molecular weight = 78.96
(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 facuity 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)

6.2 Column B Basis of Estimate
You must identify the basis for your estimates of the
quantities of the reported toxic chemical in wastes trans-
ferred to each off-site location. Enter one of the following
letter codes that applies to the method by which the
largest percentage of the estimate was derived.
M-
C-
O-
E-
Estimate is based on monitoring data or measure-
ments for the toxic chemical as transferred to an
off-site facility.
Estimate is based on mass balance calculations,
such as calculation of the amount of the toxic
chemical in wastes entering and leaving process
equipment.
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.
Estimate is based on published emission factors,
such as those relating release quantity to through-
put or equipment type (e.g., air emission factors).
6.2 Column C Type of Waste Treatment/
Disposal/Recycling/
Energy Recovery
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 must distinguish between incineration, which is
waste treatment, and legitimate energy recovery. In
order for you to claim that a reported toxic chemical sent
off-site is used for the purposes of energy recovery and
not for waste treatment, the toxic chemical must have a
heating value high enough to sustain combustion and
must be combusted in an energy recovery unit such as an
industrial boiler, furnace, or kiln. In a situation where the
reported toxic chemical is in a waste that is combusted in
an energy recovery unit, but the toxic chemical does not
have a heating value high enough to sustain combustion,
use code M54, Incineration/Insignificant Fuel Value, to
indicate that the toxic chemical was incinerated in an
energy recovery unit but did not contribute to the heating
value of the waste (see Figure 4 for an example).

-------
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
In Section 7A, you must provide the following informa-
tion if you treat the reported toxic chemical on-site:
(a) the general waste stream types containing the
toxic chemical being reported;
(b) the waste treatment method(s) or sequence used
on all waste streams containing the toxic
chemical;
(c) the range of concentration of the toxic chemicals
in the influent to the waste treatment method;
(d) the efficiency of each waste treatment method or
waste treatment sequence in removing the toxic
chemical; and
(e) whether the waste treatment efficiency figure
was based on actual operating data.
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.
Waste streams containing the toxic chemical may have a
'single source or may be aggregates of many sources. For
example, process water from several pieces of equipment
at your facility may be combined prior to waste treat-
ment. Report waste treatment methods that apply to the
aggregate waste stream, as well as waste treatment meth-
ods that apply to individual waste streams. If your
facility treats various wastewater streams containing the
toxic chemical in different ways, the different waste treat-
ment methods must be listed separately.
If your facility has several pieces of equipment perform-
ing a similar service in a waste treatment sequence, you
may 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, andhave 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. la 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
"I" would be crossed out, and a "9" would be inserted.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 37
-------
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.
If you need additional space to report under Section 7A,
photocopy page 4 of Form R as many times as necessary.
At the top of page 5 you will find instructions for indicat-
ing the total number of page 4s that you are submitting as
part of Form R, as well as instructions for indicating the
sequence of those pages.

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:
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:
o milligrams/kilogram(mass/mass)forsolidsand
liquids;
o cubiccentimeters/cubicmeter(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
conditions of 0°C (32°P) and 760 mmHg atmospheric
pressure.
7A Column D Waste Treatment Efficiency
Estimate
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, be biodegraded, or be physically removed
from the sludge.
Percent removal can be calculated as follows:
(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).
Calculate the amount of the toxic chemical in the influent
waste streamby 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
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 39

Hypothetical Section 7A
40 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
treatment is to destroy the toxic chemical by converting it
to carbon dioxide and water. In cases where the toxic
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 engineering judgment or other methods.
7A Column E Based on Operating Data?
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.
Example 10: Reporting On-Site Energy Recovery
One waste stream generated by your facility contains,
among other chemicals, toluene and cadmium. 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 cadmium is a noncombustible metal and
therefore does not contribute any heat value for energy
recovery purposes, the combustion of cadmium in the
industrial furnace is considered waste treatment, not
energy recovery. You would report cadmium as entering
a waste treatment step (i.e., incineration), in Section 7A,
column b.
Only listed toxic chemicals that have a significant heating
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., metals and chlo-
rofluorocarbons), it must be considered waste treated on-
site and reported in Section 7A. Energy recovery may
take place only in one of the types of energy recovery
equipment listed below.

If your facility uses more than one on-site energy recov-
ery method for the reported toxic chemical list the meth-
ods used in descending order (greatest to least) based on
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 conduct
any on-site recycling of the reported toxic chemical, check
the Not Applicable (NA) box at the top of Section 7C.
In this section, use the codes below to report only the
recycling methods in place at your facility that are ap-
plied to the listed toxic chemical. Do not list any off-site
recycling activities (Information about off-site recycling
must be reported in Part H, Section 6, "Transfers of the
Toxic Chemical in Wastes to Off-Site Locations").

method for a toxic chemical, enter the codes in the space
provided in descending order (greatest to least) of the
volume of the reported toxic chemical recovered by each
process. If your facility uses more than ten separate
methods for recycling the reported toxic chemical on-site,
then list the ten activities that recover the greatest amount
of the toxic chemical (again, in descending order).

Quantities for Sections8.1through8.7mustbe reported
This Section includes the data elements mandated by f°r ^e current reporting year (1996) in column B.
section 6607 of the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990
(PPA). Section 8 is a required section of Form R and Columns C and D: Following Year and Sec-
must be completed. 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.
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-
ity-
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, disposal or release.
Column A: Prior Year
Quantities for Sections 8.1 through 8.7must be reported
for the year immediately preceding the reporting year in
column A. For reports due July 1,1997 (reporting year
1996), the prior year is 1995. 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.
Quantities for Sections 8.1 through 8.7 must be esti-
mated for 1997 and 1998. 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 sourcereduction activities, market projections,
expected contracts, anticipated new product lines, com-
pany growth projections, and production capacity fig-
ures. Respondents should take into accountprotections
available for trade secrets as provided in EPCRA Sec-
tion 322 (42 USC 11042).
Relationship to Other Laws
Thereportingcategories 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
Example 11: Reporting Future Estimates
Apharmaceuticalmanufacturingfacilityusesalisted
toxic chemical in the manufacture of a prescription
drug. During the reporting year (1996), the company
received approval from the Food and Drug Adminis-
tration to begin marketing their product as an over-
the-counter drug beginning in 1997. 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 quan-
tity 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 (1997) by adding 30 percent to the amount in
column B (the amount for the current reporting year).
The second following year (1998) figure can be calcu-
lated by adding an additional 30 percent to the amount
reported in column C (the amount for the following
year (1997) projection).
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 43
-------
(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 submit-
ted 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-
ouswastes regulated underRCRA occur because EPCRA
and the PPA focus on specific chemicals, while the
RCRA regulations and the Biennial Report focus on
waste streams 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 re-
mains in the residual from the recycling process. 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
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,
except for metals and metal compounds reported as
sent off-site for solidification/stabilization or to
POTWs..
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. For the purposes of
reporting on Form R, reportable on-site and off-site
energy recovery is the combustion of a residual ma-
terial containing a TRI toxic chemical when:
(a) The combustion unit is integrated into
an energy recovery system (i.e., indus-
trial furnaces, industrial kilns, andboil-
ers); and
(b) The toxic chemical is combustible and
has a heating value high enough to sus-
tain combustion. Under RCRA this
value is considered to be -5000 BTU.
44 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
8.4 - 8.5 A toxic chemical or a mixture containing a
toxic chemical that is recycled on-site or is sent off-
site for recycling
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.
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.
Avoid Double-Counting in Sections 8.1
Through 8.8
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.
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 multiple-
count 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:
Section 8.1: 500 pounds disposed
Section 8.4: 2,500 pounds recycled
Section 8.6: 2,000 pounds treated (5,000
that initially entered - 3,000
that subsequently entered re-
cycling)
To report that 5,000 pounds were treated, 3,000 pounds were
recycled, and that 500 pounds were sent off-site for 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
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.
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
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
indudedinthe 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.
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).
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 45
-------
By checking your documentation for calculating esti-
mates made for Part E, Section 5, "Releases of the Toxic
Chemical to the Environment," you may be able to
identify release amounts from the above sources. Emer-
gency 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 maintenance 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 process
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 recov-
ery, treated, or disposed. 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 oruse of the reported toxic chemicalbegan
during the current reporting year, enter not applicable,
"NA," as the production ratio or activity index.
It is important to realize that if your facility reports more
man one reported toxic chemical, the production ratio
or activity index may vary for different chemicals. For
facilities that manufacture reported toxic chemicals, the
quantities of the toxic chemical(s) produced in the cur-
rent and prior years provide a good basis for the ratio
because that is the primary business activity associated
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 rattier 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 busi-
ness activity. Toxic chemical or material usage is there-
fore not a basis to be used for the production ratio or
activity index where the toxic chemical is "otherwise-
used" (i.e., non-incorporative activities such as extrac-
tion solvents, metal degreasers, etc.).
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).
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 dis-
posed. Examples of methods available include:
(1) Amount of toxic chemical manufactured in
1996 divided by the amount of toxic chemical
manufactured in 1995; or
(2) Amount of product produced in 1996 divided
by the amount of product produced in 1995.
46 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
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 disposed.
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 rnetal 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: "N.A" 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.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 47
-------
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 surf ace area to be painted for each bike. The bicycle production ratio is 1.1 (16,000/14,500). You
estimate 12,500 pounds of toluene treated, recycled, used for energy recovery, or disposed 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 disposed 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
disposed during the reporting year (13,500 pounds). The production ratio is calculated as foUows:
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?
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:
Q 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 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.
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.
48 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
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
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
Section 8.2), recycled (as reported in Section 8.4-8.5), or
treated (as reported in Section 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 tech-
niques that reduce or eliminate the amounts of the toxic
chemical reported in Section 8.1 through 8.7. Actions
taken to recycle, treat, or dispose of the toxic chemical
are not considered source reduction activities.

8.11 Is Additional Information on Source
Reduction, Recycling, or Pollution
Control Activities Included with
this Report?
Check "Yes" for this data element if you have attached
to this report any additional optional information on
source reduction, recycling, or pollution control activi-
ties you have implemented in the reporting year or in
prior years for the reported toxic chemical. If you are
not including additional information, check "No."
If you submit additional optional information, try to
limit this information to one page that summarizes the
source reduction, recycling, or pollution control activi-
ties. If there is a contact person at the facility, other than
the technical or public contact provided in Part I, Sec-
tion 4, the summary page should include that person's
name and telephone number for individuals who wish
to obtain further information about those activities.

appropriate state agency as part of the Form R submit-
tal to that agency.
50 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions

D, How to Determine if Your Facility Qualifies for the
Alternate Threshold and is Eligible for Reporting on
the Form A
D.I 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).
D.2 What is the Form A (certification
statement)?
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. The information submitted on th^
Form A includes facility identification information and
the chemical or chemical category identity. The infor-
mation submitted on the Form A will appear in the TRI
data base in the same manner that information sub-
mitted on Form R appears. An approved Form A and
a magnetic version of reporting have been included in
this 1996 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
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. 12/4/93) as Part II column B of section 8, data el-
ements 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.
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 regu-
lations 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
FR 61488 for greater detail). If the facility as a whole is
able to take advantage of the alternate threshold, a
single Form A is required. EPA can see no benefit in
allowing a facility with multiple establishments to sub-
mit more than one Form A for each of the chemicals
for which it is eligible. The eligibility to submit a Form
A is made on a whole facility determination. Thus, all
of the information necessary to make the determina-
tion has been assembled to the facility level. No other
detail is required by the Form A and, therefore, no ap-
parent benefit is provided to the facility in having it
submit multiple statements containing duplicative in-
formation.
Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions 51
-------
D.6 Trade secrets
EPA is requiring that a facility submit a unique Form
A for each chemical meeting the conditions of the al-
ternate threshold. Facilities may assert a trade secrecy
claim for a chemical identity on the Form A as on the
Form R. Reports submitted on a per chemical basis
protect against the disclosure of trade secrets. Form
As with trade secrecy claims, like Form Rs 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. Processing techniques currently in place make
handling of one form with more than one chemical dif-
ficult. Altering this process at present would more
likely result in increased submission and transcription
errors.
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.
• 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 Abecause 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.
Similarly, separate Form As 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., o-
xylene, 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.

E. Instructions for Completing EPA Alternate Threshold
Form A
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.
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 Certification State-
ment is required.
3. Do not leave items in Parts I and II on the
Certification Statement blank unless specifi-
cally 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 provided for a type of infor-
mation, 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.
Parti. 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 1996 reporting year
must be submitted on or before July 1,1997.
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.
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 meet
the conditions as described in Section D or in the Fed-
eral Register 59 PR 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
4.3 Technical Contact
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 manufactured,
processed, or otherwise used. If your mailing address
and street address are the same, enter NA in the space
for the mailing address.
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).
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).
4.2 Federal Facility Designation
On August 3,1993, Executive Order 12856 was signed
which directs federal facilities to comply with Right-
To-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.
Enter the name and telephone number (including area
code) of a technical representative whom EPA or State
officials may contact for clarification of the informa-
tion 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
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 information provided.
4.4 Intentionally Left Blank for the Certifi-
cation Statement
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 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).
4.6 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).
54 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
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
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.
4.8 EPA Identification Number
The EPA I.D. Number is a 12-character number as-
signed to facilities covered by hazardous waste regu-
lations under the Resource Conservation and Recov-
ery Act (RCRA). Facilities not covered by RCRA are
not likely to have an assigned I.D. Number. If your
facility is not required to have an ID. 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.
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 I deep wells, enter the 12-
digit 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
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.
5.1 Name of 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
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.

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.gv duomium 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.

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 I of Form R. 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.
56 Toxic Release Inventory Reporting Form R and Instructions
-------
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.
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 1996 (including Toxic Chemical
Specific toxic chemicals with CAS Numbers are listed in alphabetical order on the next page. 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
Aluminum (fume or dust) 7429-90-5
Aluminum oxide (fibrous forms) 1344-28-1
Ammonia (includes anhydrous 7664-41-7
ammonia and aqueous ammonia
from water dissociable ammonium
salts and other sources; 10 percent
of total aqueous ammonia is reportable
under this listing)
Asbestos (friable) 1332-21-4
Hydrochloric acid (acid aerolols including 7647-01-0
mists, vapors, gas, fog, and other airborne
forms of any particle size)
Phosphorus (yellow or white) 7723-14-0
Sulfuric acid (acid aerosols 7664-93-9
including mists, vapors, gas, fog, and
other airborne forms of any particle size)
Vanadium (fume or dust) 7440-62-2
Zinc (fume or dust) 7440-66-6
Qualifier
Only if it is in a fume or dust form.
Only if it is a fibrous form.
Only 10 percent of aqueous forms.
100 percent of anhydrous forms.
Only if it is a friable form.
Only if it is an aerosol form as defined.
Only if it is a yellow or white form.
Only if it is an aerosol form as defined.
Only if it is in a fume or dust form.
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
Isopropyl alcohol (manufacturing 67-63-0
- strong acid process, no supplier notification)
Saccharin (manufacturing, no supplier
notification)
81-07-2
Qualifier
Only if it is being manufactured by the strong
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 that 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.]

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
Toxic 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
Federal facility reports are identified as federal by several
indicators on the form. The facility name and 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.
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.
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))
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
narne 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 Toxic
Release Inventory system for the first time. This TRIFID
number, generated when the first report is entered into
the Toxic 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.
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
-------
How to Report Your Standard Industrial Clas- National Security Data
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 Form R 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
Block 5.2, Parent Company's Dun & Bradstreet Number,
should be marked NA.
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 FJPA. 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 red pen to
mark out the incorrect value and write in the corrected
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 revised sub-
mission, not all the chemicals originally reported. The
cover letter must indicate that the submission is a revi-
sion.
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
Order 12856 documents or call the EPCRA Hotline if their
Form R submission involves a national security data claim.
Who Should Sign Federal Form R Reports?
Federal Form R reports must be signed by the senior fed-
eral employee on-site. If no federal employee is on-site,
federal Form R reports must be signed by the senior fed-
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.
More Help is Available!
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.

Basis of Estimate
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 waste streams entering and leaving
process equipment.
E: Estimate is based on published emission factors,
such as those relating release 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
waste stream before treatment was fully charac-
terized by monitoring data.

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/ or a 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 form 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 innon-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 aU 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.
Form R Completion Errors
Q 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.
Q Missing certification signature. An original
certification signature must appear on page 1 of
every Form R submitted to EPA.
Q 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.
Q 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.
Q 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 1991 and
beyond.
Appendix C C-l
-------
O "Questionable" entries, such as:
Missing or incorrect ZIP codes;
Missing county names;
Invalid SIC codes; Q
Missing or invalid Dun and
Bradstreet numbers;
Incomplete off-site and POTW
information (e.g., missing city name)
Incorrect entries such as these may requke cor-
rections to be made by the facility. If amounts are
reported in units other than pounds (e.g., metric)
or withexponentialnumbers,EPAmay requke a
revision of the Form R to be submitted.
O Incorrect latitude and longitude coordinates.
Latitude and longitude coordinates are impor-
tant data on the Form R. These coordinates must Q
be determined using the correct map and correct
measuring techniques and reported in degrees,
minutes, and seconds. For additional guidance,
see Appendix E.
Q Incorrect completion of trade secret informa-
tion. The response to trade secret questions in
Section 1.2 and Section n.1.3 of a Form R must be
consistent. If trade secrecy is indicated, a sani-
tized Form R and two trade secret substantia- Q
tions (one sanitized) must be submitted in the
same package as the trade secret Form R. Leave
Section IL1.3 blank if no trade secret claim is
being made
Q Revisions not identified. Revisions to previ-
ously submitted data may be provided to EPA by Q
making corrections in red ink on a completed
copy of the Form R originally submitted; if a
revision is made for reporting year 1991 or later,
mark an "X" in the space marked "Enter "X" here
if this is arevision" onpage 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 Q
State agency. Revisions to data submitted using
magnetic media must be submitted with a newly
signed cover letter.
Q
Q Duplicate submissions not identified. Facili-
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 red ink at
the top of page 1. Failure to clearly identify a
duplicate report may result in the duplicate ap-
pearance of the data in the TRI database.
Failure to report waste treatment. Waste treat-
ment methods used to treat waste streams con-
taining toxic chemicals, and the efficiencies of
these methods, must be reported on Form R.
Informationmustbe entered for all waste streams,
even if the waste treatment does not affect the
toxic chemical. If no waste treatment is per-
formed on waste streams containing the toxic
chemical, the box marked "Not Applicable" in
Part II, Section 7A must be checked on the Form
R. Following the instructions for reporting waste
treatment methods for more than eight treatment
methods for a single waste stream.
Incorrect reporting of waste treatment meth-
ods. The type of waste stream, influent concen-
tration, and waste treatment method for each
waste stream is 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. 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
Part II, Section 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.

Q
Documentation. Any information used to com- Q
plete the Form R must be clearly documented in
facility records and be available for viewing by
EPA upon request. Failure to provide proper
documentation if requested by EPA may result
in an enforcement action. This documentation
should not be submitted with the Form R, but
must be maintained by the submitting facility for Q
three years.
Toxic chemical activity overlooked. Many fa-
cilities believe that because the section 313 re-
porting requirement pertains to manufacturers,
only the use of toxic chemicals in manufacturing
processes must be examined. Any activity in-
volving the manufacture/process, or otherwise
use of a listed toxic chemical must be included in
a threshold determination. For example, waste
treatment operations otherwise use toxic chemi-
cals to treat waste streams and may coinciden-
tally manufacture another listed toxic chemical
as a result of the waste treatment reaction. Other
commonly overlooked activities include impor- Q
tation of chemicals, generation of waste
byproducts, reaction intermediates, and the use
of chemicals for cleaning of equipment. Failure
to correctly identify all uses of toxic chemicals at
your facility may result in the omission of a
required Form R.
Misclassification of a toxic chemical activity.
Failure to correctly classify a toxic chemical activ-
ity may result in an incorrect threshold determi- Q
nation. As a result, a Form Rmay notbe submitted
when one is required. "Manufacture" means to
produce, prepare, compound, or import a listed
toxic chemical. "Process" means the preparation
of a listed toxic chemical after its manufacture,
which incorporates the toxic chemical into the
final product, for distribution in commerce. "Oth-
erwise use" encompasses any use of a listed toxic
chemical that does not fall under the terms "manu-
facture" or "process." For example, solvents in
paint applied to a manufactured product are
often misclassified as processed, instead of oth-
erwise used. Because the solvents are not inten-
tionally incorporated into the final product, the
solvent is being otherwise used, not processed.
Failure to submit a Form R because of an incor-
rect threshold determination resulting from a
misclassif ication of a toxic chemical activity may
result in an enforcement action.
Toxic chemical in mixtures. When the toxic
chemical being reported is a component in a
mixture, report only the weight of the toxic chemi-
cal in waste. Refer to Section B.4.b of the instruc-
tions for calulating the weight of a toxic chemical
in a mixture.
Incorrect interpretation of an exemption clause.
Only toxic chemicals meeting every condition of
an exemption clause may be omitted from the
reporting requirements. For additional guid-
ance on the scope of the section 313 exemptions
and specific examples, see the Toxic Chemical
Release Inventory Questions and Answers docu-
ment, which includes "Directive #1: Article Ex-
emption." For example, only processing or
otherwise use of an article is exempt. Incorrectly
assuming that the manufacture of an article is
exempt will result in incorrectly omitting toxic
chemicals which are required to be included in a
threshold determination.
Misinterpretation of the toxic chemical list. Each
individually listed toxic chemical subject to sec-
tion 313 reporting requirements has a specific
Chemical Abstract Service (CAS) registry num-
ber or toxic chemical category code associated
with it. All information available at the facility,
such as MSDSs and the Common Synonyms for
Section 313 Chemicals document, must be used to
identify the listed toxic chemicals beingreported.
Failure to consider a listed toxic chemical quali-
fier. Aluminum, vanadium, and zinc are quali-
fied as "fume or dust." Isopropyl alcohol and
saccharin have manufacturing qualifiers. Phos-
phorus is qualified as yellow or white. Asbestos
is qualified as friable. Aluminum oxide is quali-
fied as fibrous forms. Sulfuric Acid and hydro-
chloric acid are qualified as aerosol. Only toxic
chemicals in the form specified in the qualifier
require reporting under section 313 and should
be reported on Form R with the appropriate
qualifier in parentheses. For example, isopropyl
alcohol is listed on the toxic chemical list with the
qualifier "manufacturing-strong acid process, no
supplier notification." The only facilities that
should be reporting this toxic chemical are those
that manufacture isopropyl alcohol by the strong
acid process. If it is manufactured by another
process, or simply processed or otherwise used,
you are not required to report it.
Appendix C C-3
-------
Q
Q
Incorrectly interpreting threshold definition.
Thresholds for section 313 are based on the
amount of toxic chemicals manufactured, pro-
cessed, or otherwise used at the facility over the
course of a calendar year. The thresholds are not Q
based on the amount stored on-site at any one
time or the amount released to the environment.
Reportingzero airemissions of a VOC. Volatile
organic chemicals (VOCs) are substances which
readily evaporate at room temperature. As a
result, when using these toxic chemicals in an
open tank, a painting or degreasing operation, or
similar open operations, air emissions will occur.
Only in special cases with completely closed
systems may no emission to air occur.
Reporting Chemical Category Codes in Section
1.1. Beginning with the 1991 reportingyear, EPA
has assigned alphanumeric category codes to the
chemical categories for the purposes of reporting
in Section 1.1, the CAS number field. If you are
completing a Form R for a chemical category, you
must provide the appropriate code for that cat-
egory in Section 1.1. The category codes can be
found in the instructions for Section 1.1; Table n, Q
"Section 313 Toxic Chemical List;" and Appendix
B, "Reporting Codes for EPA Form R."
Reporting transfers to POTWs. When waste-
water containing a listed mineral acid is neutral-
ized to a pH of 6 or greater before being trans-
ferred to a POTW, the transfer estimate should be
reported as zero. It is incorrect to enter "NA"
(Not Applicable), in such a situation.
Reporting other off-site transfers. Beginning
with the 1991 reporting year, transfers off-site for
the purposes of recycling or combustion for en-
ergy recovery are to be reported in Section 6.2.
Any quantities reported in Sections 8.5,8.3,8.7,
and 8.1 as sent off-site for recycling, energy re-
covery, treatment, or disposal, respectively, must
also be reported in Section 6.2 along with the
receiving location and appropriate off-site waste
management code-
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.
When a quantity is reported in Section 8.4 as
recycled on-site, the type of recycling method
must be reported in Section 7C, and vice versa.
Reporting quantities in Section 8. This section
is mandatory; do not leave any box in Section 8
entirely blank. If your facility does not generate
any waste or does not engage in source reduction
or recycling activities enter zero or "NA" as ap-
propriate. It is incorrect to use range codes to
report quantities in Section 8. Range codes canbe
used only in Sections 5 and 6 of Form R. It is
incorrect to use the codes used in Section 4 (for
reporting the maximum amount of the reported
toxic chemical on-site) to report quantities in
Section 8.
Columns C and D, the future year projections for
questions 8.1 through 8.7, must be completed.
EPA expects a reasonable estimate for the future
year projections. Not applicable, "NA" can be
used in columns A, B, C, and D to indicate that the
reported toxic chemical will not undergo a spe-
cific activity such as treatment.
Quantities reported in Sections 8.1 through 8.7
must be mutually exclusive and additive. This
means that quantities of the reported toxic chemi-
cal should not be double-counted in Sections 8.1
through 8.7. Some facilities submitting Form Rs
have reported the same quantity of a toxic chemi-
cal as both treated and recycled on-site. Some
double-counting errors have been due to confu-
sion over the differences in how on-site treat-
ment of a toxic chemical is reported in Section 7A
as compared to Section 8.6. In Section 7A, infor-
mation on the treatment of waste streams con-
taining the toxic chemical is reported, along with
the percent efficiency in terms of destruction or
removal of the toxic chemical from each waste
stream. In Section 8.6, only the quantity of the
toxic chemical actually destroyed by the treat-
ment processes reported in Section 7A is re-
ported to avoid double-counting within Sections
8.1 through 8.7.
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
makes it available for further use in its manufac-
C-4 Appendix C
-------
Q
turing processes. In completing Form R, the
facility should report the treatment of the waste-
water 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.
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.
Rep orting toxic chemicals in RCR A wastes. 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.
Q
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.
Quantities released directly to the environment
and disposed on-site
Fugitive or non-point air emissions (Section 5.1)
Stack or point air emissions (Section 5.2)
Discharges to receiving streams or water bodies
(Section 5.3)
Underground injections on-site to Class I Wells
(Section 5.4.1)
Underground injections on-site to Class II-V Wells
(Section 5.4.2)
Release to land on-site (Section 5.5)
RCRA Subtitle C landfills (Section5.5.1A)
Other landfills (Section 5.5. IB)
land treatment/application farming
(Section 5.5.2)
surface impoundment (Section 5.5.3)
other disposal (Section 5.5.4)
Include in these quantities any releases from any
on-site treatment, recycling, or energy recovery
activities.
Quantities disposed off-site
These are quantities that are reported in Section
6.2 and associated with the following codes:
M10 Storage Only;
M71 Underground Injection;
M72 Landfill/Disposal Surface Impoundment;
M73 Land Treatment;
M79 Other Land Disposal
M90 Other Off-Site Management;
M94 Transfer to Waste Broker—Disposal; and
M99 Unknown.
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).
Appendix C C-5
-------
• 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).
Q 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. Examplesof toxic chemicals
that do not have heating values high enough to
sustain combustion include metals, CFCs, and
halons.
Do notinclude 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.
Q 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
thepurposesof 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
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.
Q
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
but not 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
Section6.2 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
with non-production related activities such as
catastrophic releases and remedial actions, or
other one-time events not associated with rou-
tine production practices, that were sent off-site
for the purposes of recycling (these quantities are
reported in Section 8.8 only).
C-6 Appendix C
-------
Q Reporting quantities in Section 8.6, "Quantity
treated on-site." Quantities may not always
have to be reported in Section 8.6 when Section
7A is completed. This is because the information
reported in Sections 7A and 8.6 is different. Only
the quantity of the toxic chemical actually de-
stroyed during on-site treatment is reported in
Section 8.6. Section 7A contains treatment data
for physical removal and/or destruction of the
toxic chemical as well as information on treat-
ment methods used on the wastestream contain-
ing the toxic chemical regardless of its effect on
the toxic chemical. If a quantity is reported in
Section 8.6, Section 7A must be completed. For
example, a facility may treat wastewaters con-
taining a toxic chemical by physically removing
the toxic chemical and then disposing of it on-
site. The treatment of the wastewaters would be
reported in Section 7A, with an efficiency esti-
mate based on the amount of the toxic chemical
removed from the wastewaters. The quantity of
the toxic chemical removed would be reported as
disposed in Section 8.1, not as treated in Section
8.6. If some of the toxic chemical is destroyed
during treatment, the facility would report only
the amount of the toxic chemical actually de-
stroyed during treatment in Section 8.6 and the
amount ultimately disposed in Section 8.1 in
order to avoid double-counting the same quan-
tity in Section 8.
Do not include in Section 8.6 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 treated on-site.
Q Reporting quantities in Section 8.7, "Quantity
treated off-site." It is an error to not include
quantities in Section 8.7 that are reported in
Section 6.2 as transferred off-site for the purposes
of treatment and using the following codes:
M50 Incineration/Thermal treatment;
M54 Incineration/Insignificant Fuel Value;
M61 Wastewater treatment (excluding POTW);
M69 Other waste treatment; and
M95 Transfer to Waste Broker-Waste Treatment.
In addition to those quantities, facilities should
include any quantity that is transferred to a POTW
(as reported in Section 6.1) in Section 8.7, except
for metals and metal compounds.
Do not include in Section 8.7 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 treat-
ment or discharged to a POTW (these quantities
are reported in Section 8.8 only).
Reporting quantities in Section 8.8, "Quantity
released to the environment as a result of reme-
dial actions, catastrophic events, or one-time
events not associated with production pro-
cesses." Report in Section 8.8 those quantities
associated with non-production related activi-
ties such as catastrophic releases and remedial
actions, as well as other one-time events not
associated with routine production practices, that
were released to the environment on-site, or trans-
ferred off-site for the purposes of recycling, en-
ergy recovery, treatment or disposal. Quantities
include in Section 8.8 must not be also reported in
Sections 8.1 through 8.7.
Reporting the production ratio in Section 8.9. A
production ratio or activity index represents the
current year's production compared with that of
the previous year. The comparison (current RY/
previous RY) must be provided in Section 8.9.
Zeros, ,and negative numbers are not acceptable,
"NA" (Not Applicable), should be used only when
the reported toxic chemical was not manufac-
tured, processed, or otherwise used in the year
prior to the reporting year.-
Reporting source reduction activities in Sec-
tion 8.10. It is an error to report a source reduc-
tion activity in Section 8.10 and not report at least
one method used to identify that activity and vice
versa.

APPENDIX D. SUPPLIER NOTIFICATION
REQUIREMENTS
Because manufacturers reporting under section 313 must
know 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
requkements 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
(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-
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 20-
39, 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.
Supplier Notification Must Include the
Following Information:
(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
-------
How the Notification Must Be Made
In these cases, you must:
The required notification must be provided at least annu-
allyin 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.)
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
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 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
no tif ication for chemical ABC would have begun with the
first shipment in 1998.
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.
(1) 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
(2) 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).
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.
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):
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.
(2) 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
-------
(3)
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 of paint designed
for use by the general public, notification
is not required.
Your mixture or trade name product is contained
in a waste stream being sent off-site for waste
treatment or disposal.
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.
(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 value 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.
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;
(2) Explanations of why a notification was consid-
ered necessary and all supporting materials used
to develop the notice;
(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.

APPENDIX E.
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 result in EPA 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:
(1) The beginning of each index contains a map of
the state, broken into numbered quadrangular
sections. The numbered quadrangular sections
are called general areas of interest. Identify the
numbered section in which your facility is lo-
cated.
(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.
These detailed topographic quadrangle maps are avail-
able in many libraries or for purchase from the Distribu-
tion Branch of the USGS and from private map dealers.
The Catalog ofTopographic and Other Published Maps con-
tains a list of map depository libraries and topographic
map dealers for each state covered in the catalog.

To purchase a topographic quadrangle map from the
USGS, you must send a written request to tine Distribu-
tion Branch of the USGS, containing the file number, map
reference code, the name of the city, state and zip code in
which your facility is located, payment of $4.00 per map
sheet and a handling charge of $3.50 for each order
mailed.

(3) Read and record the latitude and longitude (in
degrees, minutes, and seconds) for the southeast
corner of the small quadrangle drawn in step
two. The .latitude and longitude are printed at
the edges of the map.
(4) 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 north-
south 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.

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.)
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.
(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.
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:
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:
Point distance =
Total distance =
99.5
192.0
99.5 x 150"
192.0
77.7"

(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 east-
west 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:
the measurement from the longitude
line to the desired point (the point dis-
tance);
the measurement from the longitude
line to the west line of the small quad-
rangle (the total distance).
Determine the number of seconds to be added to the
longitude recorded in step 3 by using the ratio:
Point distance x 150" = increment of longitude
total distance
between lines
For example:
Point distance =
Total distance =
