Chapter 1
Toxics Release Inventory Reporting and
the 1997 Public Data Release
Introduction and Background
Following a fatal chemical-release accident in Bhopal,
India, the Emergency Planning and Community
Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) provisions were
enacted to promote emergency planning, to minimize
the effects of an accident such as occurred at Bhopal,
and to provide the public with information on releases
of toxic chemicals in their communities.
Section 313 of EPCRA established the Toxics
Release Inventory (TRI) Program, a national database
that identifies facilities., chemicals manufactured and
used at the identified facilities, and the annual
amounts of these chemicals released (in routine
operations and in accidents and other one-time
events) and otherwise managed on- and off-site in
waste.
In 1990, Congress passed the Pollution Prevention
Act (PPA). Among its requirements was a mandate to
expand TRI to include additional information on toxic
chemicals in waste and on source reduction methods.
Beginning in 1991, covered facilities were required to
report quantities of TRI chemicals recycled,
combusted for energy recovery, and treated on- and
off-site. This waste management data has
strengthened TRI as a tool for providing information
on facilities' handling of TRI chemicals as well as for
analyzing progress in reducing releases.
The Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) Program has
been a tremendously successful program and the
results speak loudly for themselves. Industries have
reduced their on- and off-site releases of TRI
chemicals by more than 40% or 1.45 billion pounds
(for chemicals reportable in all years). Governments
— federal, state, and local — have used the TRI to set
priorities, measure progress, and target areas of
special and immediate concern. The public, our most
important customer, has used the TRI data to
understand their local environment, to participate in
local and national debates about the choices being
made that effect their health and the health of their
children and, ultimately, to exert their influence on
the outcome of these debates.
Since 1987, the first year of TRI reporting, the TRI
and the Right-to-Know Program has grown. The
number of chemicals has doubled, federal facilities
have been added, new sectors will be reporting for the
first time with the 1998 reporting year, and EPA has
proposed to lower the EPCRA section 313 reporting
thresholds for certain persistent, bioaccumulative
toxic (PBT) chemicals and to add certain other PBT
chemicals to the section 313 list of toxic chemicals.
Our progress is to a large degree the result of our open
process. The Agency applauds those who have
worked with us to assure that we meet the challenge
that EPCRA posed, and we encourage those who
continue to push us to assure and maintain the
integrity and goals of the Program.
As we move into the second decade of the TRI
Program, many challenges in the Right-to-Know
Program remain to be met. TRI was designed to be a
program that would evolve, over time, to meet the
changing needs of an informed and involved public.
The program will never be static and will never be
"finished." As new chemicals of concern are
identified, they will be added. Sectors that appear to
1-1
-------
Chapter 1 - TRI Reporting and the 1997 Public Data Release
contribute significantly to environmental loadings will
be added. Data collection will be modified to meet
new information needs and access technologies will
be developed over time to assure enhanced public
access.
The 1997 Toxics Release Inventory Public Data
Release provides an overview of the information
collected through TRI. It summarizes data collected
for calendar year 1997. For comparison purposes, this
report also provides basic data for the preceding year
(1996), for the new baseline year (1995), for the
period since the PPA mandated collection of waste
management data (1991), and for the original baseline
year (1988). TRTs on-line computer database and
CD-ROM contain data collected for all years,
including those not found in this report.
1997 Public Data Release
This year the 1997 TRI Public Data Release contains
four chapters and focuses on the TRI data at the
national level. The data are analyzed at the national
level by state, by chemical and by industry. Unlike
last year, this year's data release does not contain
industry-specific chapters. The industry-specific
chapters will be revised in the future but not in 1999.
Also, in previous data release publications, the year-
to-year comparison chapter has had extensive
analyses of the current year data compared to the 1988
core set of chemicals and the 1991 core set of
chemicals. In this year's data release, the bulk of the
year-to-year comparison is done with a new baseline
year of 1995. However, there are still several tables in
the 1997 TRI Public Data Release which compare the
current year data to the base years of 1988 and 1991.
In addition to the change in the baseline year, the text
and tables have been reorganized to put the data in
terms of the waste management hierarchy.
TRI Reporting
The Toxics Release Inventory is a publicly available
database that contains information on specific toxic
chemical releases and other waste management
activities from the manufacturing sector of the U.S.
economy and, since 1994, federal facilities. This
inventory was established under the Emergency
Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986
(EPCRA). Following passage of the Pollution
Prevention Act of 1990, TRI was expanded to include
mandatory reporting of additional waste management
and pollution prevention activities.
The information collected under these laws can be
used by the public to identify facilities and chemical
release patterns that warrant further study and
analysis. Combined with hazard and exposure
information, TRI has proven to be a valuable tool for
risk identification.
Each year, facilities that meet certain thresholds must
report their releases and other waste management
activities for listed toxic chemicals to EPA and to the
state or tribal entity in whose jurisdiction the facility
is located. The TRI list for 1997 included more than
600 chemicals and 28 chemical categories. Each
facility submits a TRI reporting form, known as Form
R, for each TRI chemical it has manufactured,
processed, or otherwise used during 1997 in amounts
exceeding the thresholds. Starting with the 1995
reporting year, facilities with lower levels of
reportable amounts that do not manufacture, process,
or otherwise use more than 1 million pounds of the
chemical can file a much shorter certification
statement, Form A (see "TRI Reporting Forms," later
in this chapter).
Reports for each calendar year are due by July 1 of the
following year. After completion of data entry and
data quality assurance activities, the Agency makes
the data available to the public in printed reports, in a
computer database, and through a variety of other
information products such as CD-ROMs.
1-2
-------
Chapter 1 - TRI Reporting and the 1997 Piiblic Data Release
States also make available to the public copies of the
forms filed by facilities in their jurisdiction. In
addition, some states independently produce a data
release report.
Who Must Report?
Manufacturing facilities that have the equivalent of 10
or more full-time employees and meet the established
thresholds for manufacture, processing, or "otherwise
use" of listed chemicals must report their releases and
other waste management quantities (including
quantities transferred off-site for further waste
management). Manufacturing facilities are defined as
facilities in Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)
primary codes 20-39, which include, among others:
chemicals, petroleum refining, primary metals,
fabricated metals, paper, plastics, and transportation
equipment. Federal facilities have been required to
report since 1994, regardless of their SIC
classification. In May 1997, EPA added seven new
industry sectors that will report to the TRI for the first
time in July 1999 for reporting year 1998.
Thresholds for manufacturing and processing are
currently 25,000 pounds for each listed chemical,
while the threshold for otherwise using is 10,000
pounds per chemical. Beginning with the 1995
reporting year, certain facilities are able to take
advantage of a burden-reducing reporting threshold.
(See "Form A" in "TRI Reporting Forms," later in
this chapter.)
What Must Be Reported?
Each year, facilities report to TRI the amounts of
toxic chemicals released on-site to the air, water, and
land and injected underground (Section 5 of TRI
Form R), and the amounts of chemicals transferred
off-site for recycling, energy recovery, treatment, and
disposal (Section 6 of Form R).
Box 1-1. Who Reported Toxic Chemical Release Inventory
Reports for the 1997 Reporting Year?
Who Reported Toxic Chemical Release
Inventory Reports for the 1997
Reporting Year?
A facility must report to TRI if it:
Conducts manufacturing operations within Standard
Industrial Classification (SIC) codes 20 through 39 (or

They also report production-related waste
management information on quantities recycled,
combusted for energy recovery, treated, or released or
otherwise disposed of, both on- and off-site, and
catastrophic or other one-time releases (Section 8 of
the Form R).
Facilities provide specific identifying information,
such as:
• Name
• Location
• Type of business
• Contact names
• Name of parent company
• Environmental permit numbers
They also provide information about the manufacture,
process, and otherwise use of the listed chemical at
the facility and the maximum amount of the chemical
on-site during the year. Facilities provide information
about methods used to treat waste streams containing
the toxic chemicals at the site and the efficiencies of
those treatment methods. In addition to information
about the amount of toxic chemicals sent off-site for
waste management, facilities also must specify the
destination of these transfers. Beginning with the
1991 reports, facilities were required to provide
information about source reduction activities, along
with the quantities managed in waste by activities
such as recycling. Companies must provide a
production index that can help relate changes in
reported quantities of toxic chemicals in waste
managed to changes in production.
These additional data elements facilitate tracking of
industry progress in reducing waste generation and
moving towards safer management alternatives.
While current TRI data cannot provide an absolute
measure of pollution prevention, the data can provide
new insight into the complete toxics cycle.
Box 1-3. What Must Be Reported to TRI?
What Must Be Reported?
Information reported by facilities includes:
• Basic information identifying the facility;
• Name and telephone number of a contact person;
Environmental permits held;
Amounts of each listed chemical released to the
environment at the facility;
• Amounts of each chemical shipped from the facility
to other locations for recycling, energy recovery,
treatment, or disposal;
Amounts of each chemical recycled, burned for
energy recovery, or treated at the facility;
* Maximum amount of chemical present on-site at the
facility during the year;
• Types of activities conducted at the facility
involving the toxic chemical; and
• Source reduction activities.
What Are the Benefits and Limitations
of the Data?
We believe that people know what's best for their
own communities and, given the facts, they
themselves will determine what is best to protect
public health and the environment.

Benefits
The TRI Program has given the public unprecedented
direct access to toxic chemical release and other waste
management data at the local, state, regional, and
national level. Responsible use of this information
can enable the public to identify potential concerns,
gain a better understanding of potential risks, and
work with industry and government to reduce toxic
chemical releases and the risks associated with them.
When combined with hazard and exposure data, this
information can allow informed environmental
1-4
-------
priority-setting at the local level. More than 1,500
citizen groups have used TRI data to achieve the goal
of a cleaner and healthier neighborhood.
Federal, state, and local governments can use the data
to compare facilities or geographic areas, to identify
hot spots, to evaluate existing environmental
programs, to more effectively set regulatory priorities,
and to track pollution control and waste reduction
progress. TRI data, in conjunction with demographic
data, can help government agencies and the public
identify potential environmental justice concerns.
Industry can use the data to obtain an overview of the
release and other waste management of toxic
chemicals, to identify and reduce costs associated
with toxic chemicals in waste, to identify promising
areas of pollution prevention, to establish reduction
targets, and to measure and document progress toward
reduction goals. Public availability of the data has
prompted many facilities to work with communities
to develop effective strategies for reducing
environmental and human health risks posed by toxic
chemical releases. Since 1988, facilities have reduced
toxic releases, on- and off-site, by 42.8%, for
chemicals reportable in all years.
Completion of TRI chemical expansion for the 1995
reporting year has significantly increased the
usefulness of the data. The scope of the program was
broadenedjo include 286 new chemicals and
chemical categories1 on the toxic chemical list for a
total of 643 reportable chemicals and chemical
categories. Many of these new chemicals are high
production volume (HPV) chemicals and highly toxic
substances. (See "TRI Expansion," later in this
chapter for more information.)
Chapter 1 - TRI Reporting and the 1997 Public Data Release
Box 1-4. Factors to Consider in Using TRI Data
Of the 286 chemicals, 20 were diisocyanates and 1.9 were
polyaromatic compounds. These are reported not as individual chemicals, but as
two chemical compound categories. Not individually counting the members of
these two categories converts 286 to 249. Furthermore, three other chemicals
have been remanded and one chemical was not reportable because of an
administrative stay. Thus, the number of chemicals added to TRI, beginning
with the 1995 reporting year, was 245.
Factors to Consider in
Using TRI Data
Toxicity of the Chemical: TRI chemicals vary widely in
their ability to produce toxic effects. Some high volume
releases of less toxic chemicals may appear to be a more
serious problem than lower-volume releases of highly toxic
chemicals, when just the opposite may be true.
Exposure Considerations: The potential for exposure is
greater the longer the chemicals remains unchanged in the
environment. Sunlight, heat, or microorganisms may or may
not decompose the chemical. For example, microorganisms
readily degrade some chemicals, such as methanol, into less
toxic chemicals, whereas metals are persistent and will not
degrade when released to the environment.
Type of Release (Environmental Medium); Chemical
exposure of a population depends on the environmental
medium (air, water, land, etc.) to which a chemical is
released. The medium also affects the types of exposures
possible, such as inhalation, dermal exposure, or ingestion.
EPA also expanded the industry coverage of the TRI
program because of the recognition that the
manufacturing sector is not the only industrial sector
releasing toxic chemicals to the environment or
otherwise managing them as waste. EPA focused
particular attention on sectors linked to
manufacturing—those providing energy, further
managing products, or further managing waste from
the manufacturing sector. On May 1,1997, EPA
published a final rule expanding TRI's industry
coverage. As a result of this effort, EPA added seven
industry sectors: metal mining, coal mining, electrical
utilities that combust coal and/or oil, hazardous waste
treatment and disposal facilities, chemical wholesale
distributors, petroleum bulk stations and terminals,
and solvent recovery services. Facilities in these
industries will begin reporting in July 1999 for the
year 1998.
EPA believes this action will greatly enhance
communities' Right-to-Know by requiring TRI
reports from an estimated 6^500^additional facilities.
EPA is conducting an aggressive outreach campaign,
including guidance, training, and technical assistance,
1-5
-------
Chapter 1 - TRI Reporting and the 1997 Public Data Release
to assist these new industries in understanding their
reporting obligations. In addition, as a result of a
Presidential Executive Order, federal facilities have
been required to report since 1994.
In order to further enhance communities' Right-to-
Know, on January 5,1999 (64 FR 688) EPA
published a proposed rule to lower the EPCRA
section 313 reporting thresholds for certain persistent,
bioaccumulative toxic (PBT) chemicals and to add
certain other PBT chemicals to the section 313 list of
toxic chemicals. These PBT chemicals are of
particular concern not only because they are toxic but
also because they remain in the environment for long
periods of time, are not readily destroyed (i.e., they
are persistent) and build up or accumulate in body
tissue (i.e., they bioaccumulate). Relatively small
releases of PBT chemicals can pose human and
environmental health threats. Consequently these
chemicals warrant recognition by communities as
potential health threats and need to be captured by the
TRI Right-to-Know Program.
Limitations
While TRI provides the public, industry, and state and
local governments an invaluable source of key
environmental data, it has some limitations that must
be considered when using the data. Through the 1997
reporting year, the program applies to industries in the
manufacturing sector and those owned by the federal
government. It, therefore, does not cover all sources
of releases and other waste management activities of
TRI chemicals. With finalization of the facility
expansion rule, industries providing energy, further
managing products, or further managing waste from
the manufacturing sector will also report. Although
TRI is successful in capturing information on a
significant portion of toxic chemicals currently being
used by covered industry sectors, it does not cover all
toxic chemicals or all industry sectors, nor will it do
so after the facility expansion takes effect. In addition,
facilities that do not meet the TRI threshold levels
(those with fewer than 10 full-time employees or
those not meeting TRI quantity thresholds) are not
required to report. More information will be captured
when the PBT ralemaking is complete, but this will
still only be for a subset of chemicals on TRI. Thus,
while the TRI includes 71,670 reports from 21,490
facilities for 1997, the 2.58 billion pounds of on-and
off-site releases reported represent only a portion of
all toxic chemical releases nationwide.
Another limitation of the existing TRI Program is that
the data currently collected provide limited
information on the life cycle of chemicals used by
facilities. Beyond reporting on releases and other
waste management, only limited and very general
information on chemical storage is provided and none
on the toxicity of the chemicals. In addition, this
report does not account for toxic emissions from cars
and trucks, nor from the majority of sources of
releases of pesticides, volatile organic compounds,
fertilizers or from many other non-industrial sources.
Furthermore, facilities report estimated data to TRI,
and the program does not mandate that they monitor
their releases. Various estimation techniques are used
when monitoring data are not available, and EPA has
published estimation guidance for the regulated
community. Variations between facilities can result
from the use of different estimation methodologies.
These factors should be taken into account when
considering data accuracy and comparability.
As discussed above, the TRI data summarized in this
report reflect chemical releases and other waste
management activities that occurred in the 1997
calendar year. Patterns of releases and other waste
management activities can change dramatically from
one year to the next. Thus, it is important to recognize
that current facility activities may be different from
those reported for 1997.
TRI reports reflect releases and other waste
management activities of chemicals, not exposures of
the public to those chemicals. Release estimates alone
are not sufficient to determine exposure or to
calculate potential adverse effects on human health
and the environment. Although additional information
is necessary to assess exposure and risk, TRI data can
be used to identify areas of potential concern.
1-6
-------
Chapter 1 - TRI Reporting and the 1997 Public Data Release
Furthermore, TRI data, in conjunction with other
information, can be used as a starting point in
evaluating exposures that may result from releases
and other waste management activities of toxic
chemicals. The determination of potential risk
depends upon many factors, including the toxicity of
the chemical, the fate of the chemical after it is
released, the locality of the release, and the human or
other populations that are exposed to the chemical
after its release.
TRI in Perspective
TRI has achieved tremendous results. The public now
has a much better picture of potential toxic chemical
risks in their communities, while industry and
government have better data for identifying
opportunities and measuring successes in preventing
pollution. The sections below provide an overview of
recent and proposed expansions to TRI. These
expansions allow TRI to provide even more valuable
information to the general public and industry.
TRI Expansion
There are few who would disagree that the 1987
Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know
Act (EPCRA) provisions have proven to be among
the most successful stimuli for reducing the amount of
toxic chemicals that enter the environment. TRI,
specifically, has focused public and industry attention
on the billions of pounds of toxic materials that are
released directly into our air, our land and our water,
or injected underground, or are recycled, burned for
energy recovery or otherwise treated. While all
releases are not equal, and some may not lend
themselves to reduction or elimination, the TRI has
forced a hard look at our approach to the use of toxic
chemicals. This hard look has been beneficial.
Between 1988, TM's baseline year, and 1997,
industrial on- and off-site releases have decreased
42.8% from 3.40 billion pounds to 1.94 billion
pounds, for chemicals reportable in all years (see
Chapter 3 for additional information). This reduction
reflects the hard work of manufacturing facilities that
have refined their processes, looked for source
reduction opportunities, assured outstanding
housekeeping practices and worked to minimize the
footprint they leave on their surrounding environment.
Designed to be non-intrusive, TRI has provided the
guide for all to use when seeking areas for
environmental improvement.
One valid criticism of the program has been the
limited breadth and depth of its chemical, facility, and
data coverage. In 1987, when the Congress passed
EPCRA, 300-plus chemicals and chemical categories
were included in the "TRI Chemical List" This list
combined two existing chemical lists: the New Jersey
Environmental Hazardous Substance List and the
Maryland Chemical Inventory Report List. Over time,
through EPA's petition process, the original list has
been modified as the Agency responded to petitions to
add and delete chemicals, given the law's toxicity
listing criteria. These criteria focus on both acute and
chronic health effects as well as environmental
effects. TRI's coverage of facilities has been limited
to the manufacturing sector (SIC codes 20- 39),
required to report under EPCRA section 313. Finally,
data coverage was initially confined to information on
releases and certain transfers off-site for further waste
management.
Over time, EPA has worked to expand TRI to cover
other industrial sectors and other chemicals that have
similar adverse impacts on our environment. Towards
that end, the Agency has pursued an expansion
strategy that would enlarge the boundaries of TRI in
several directions. EPA's recent actions include a
significant expansion of the number of chemicals in
the program to give the public a more complete
picture of toxic chemicals in their communities. At
the same time, EPA provided a burden reducing
option (Form A) for facilities with lower levels of
reportable amounts. EPA has also expanded the
facilities reporting to TRI. Additionally, EPA has
recently proposed a rale (64 FR 688) to lower the
EPCRA section 313 reporting thresholds for certain
persistent, bioaccumulative toxic (PBT) chemicals
and to add certain other PBT chemicals to the section
313 list of toxic chemicals.
1-7
-------
Chapter 1 - TRI Reporting and the 1997 Public Data Release
Chemical Expansion
The chemical expansion phase included two major
actions. The first occurred in 1993 with the addition
of certain Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
(RCRA) (58 FR 63500) chemicals and certain
hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) (58 FR 63496) to
BPCRA section 313.
The second action of this phase was the addition of
286 chemicals and chemical categories on November
30,1994 (59 FR 61432). These 286 additional
chemicals can be characterized as high or moderately
high in toxicity, and they are currently manufactured,
processed, or otherwise used in the U.S. This
expansion of the chemical list raised the number of
chemicals and chemical categories reported to TRI to
over 600. Specifically, the rule added more than 150
pesticides, certain Clean Air Act chemicals, certain
Clean Water Act Priority Pollutants, and certain Safe
Drinking Water Act chemicals. Many of the
chemicals are carcinogens, reproductive toxicants., or
developmental toxicants. Of particular note is the
addition of industrial chemicals such as diisocyanates,
n-hexane, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, and chemicals
such as polycyclic aromatic compounds that result
from the combustion of fuels. This 1997 data release
marks the third year facilities have reported on these
added chemicals.
While this constituted a major component of the
chemical expansion, the TRI chemical list is always
fluid and dynamic. EPA continues to review other
chemicals for addition, including chemicals that were
proposed for addition but not listed in 1994. EPA may
also add or delete a number of chemicals each year
through the petition process. Chemicals may be added
or deleted according to the toxicity criteria outlined in
sections 313(c) and (d) of EPCRA.
Facility Expansion
Since the enactment of EPCRA, the TRI Program has
focused on the releases and other waste management
activities of the manufacturing sector—facilities
classified as being primarily in SIC codes 20-39. To
provide the public with a more complete picture of
the toxics in their community, EPA undertook a
detailed examination of other, non-manufacturing
industries to determine which may be significant
generators of toxic chemical releases and other
wastes. Factors used to evaluate which industries
would be considered for this expansion included other
available data on toxic chemical releases and other
waste management activities, the interrelationship of
non-manufacturing operations to manufacturing
operations, the degree to which reporting would be
expected to occur, and the potential burden that TRI
reporting might impose on these facilities.
As a result of its assessments, EPA added seven
industry sectors to TRI in May 1997.
The sectors are:
• Metal mining (SIC code 10 except for SIC codes
1011, mining of iron ores; 1081 metal mining
services on a contract or fee basis, such as drilling
or exploration and development; and 1094,
mining of uranium-radium-vanadium ores);
• Coal mining (SIC code 12 except for 1241 and
extraction activities);
• Electrical utilities that combust coal and/or oil
(SIC codes 4911,4931 and 4939);
• RCRA subtitle C hazardous waste treatment and
disposal facilities (SIC code 4953);
• Chemicals and allied products wholesale
distributors (SIC code 5169);
• Petroleum bulk plants and terminals (SIC code
5171); and
• Solvent recovery services (SIC code 7389).
The first reports from these facilities are due July 1,
1999, for the 1998 reporting year. As part of this rule,
EPA revised its interpretation of otherwise use to
clarify that the treatment for destruction, stabilization,
1-8
-------
Chapter 1 - TRI Reporting and the 1997 Public Data Release
and disposal of toxic chemicals in wastes received
from other facilities is reportable, EPA estimates that
about 6,600 additional facilities will submit more than
37,000 additional Form R reports because of the
addition of these industry groups. EPA will continue
to review other industries for possible inclusion in the
TRI Program.
Since the final rule was published, EPA has
developed guidance documents to help facilities in
each of the newly added industries understand and
comply with EPCRA section 313 requirements. The
final guidance documents are available from EPA's
Web site at http://www.epa.gov/opptintr/tri. In
addition, the Agency is conducting training sessions
around the country. The training sessions give an
overview of EPCRA section 313 reporting
requirements, with training modules that provide
exercises in interpretation and form completion.
Persistent Bioaccumulative Toxic Chemicals
On January 5,1999 (64 FR 688), EPA published a
proposed rule to lower the EPCRA section 313
reporting thresholds for certain persistent,
bioaccumulative toxic (PBT) chemicals and to add
certain other PBT chemicals to the section 313 list of
toxic chemicals. These PBT chemicals are of
particular concern not only because they Eire toxic but
also because they remain in the environment for long
periods of time,, are not readily destroyed (i.e., they
are persistent) and build up or accumulate in body
tissue (i.e., they bioaccumulate). Relatively small
releases of PBT chemicals can pose human and
environmental health threats. Consequently these
chemicals warrant recognition by communities as
potential health threats and need to be captured by the
TRI Right-to-Know Program.
At the current EPCRA section 313 reporting
thresholds, facilities that manufacture, process and/or
otherwise use PBT chemicals are not reporting many
of the releases and other waste management data
associated with these chemicals. The existing
thresholds of 25,000 and 10,000 pounds are
inadequate to ensure that the public has access to
information about the quantities of these PBT
chemicals which may enter their communities from
local industrial facilities. The proposed rule includes
several actions necessary to ensure that additional
information on PBT chemicals is reported under
section 313, including a proposal for lower reporting
thresholds for PBT chemicals and a special reporting
threshold for dioxin and dioxin-like compounds. The
rule also includes proposed modifications to certain
reporting exemptions and requirements for those
chemicals that would be subject to the lower reporting
thresholds. EPA anticipates that a final rule for PBT
chemical reporting will be issued by the end of 1999.
TRI Reporting Forms
Form R
The Form R is the reporting form that must be
annually submitted by the owner or operator of a
covered facility. The reports are submitted on or
before July 1 and cover activities that occurred at the
facility during the previous calendar year. EPA
provides the reporting forms with instructions and
technical guidance on how to calculate toxic chemical
releases or emissions from facilities. The Toxic
Chemical Release Inventory Reporting Forms and
Instructions axe available on the Internet at
http://www.epa.gov/opptintr/tri. In addition, EPA
does provide a simplified form of reporting based on
an alternate threshold for facilities with low annual
amounts of a listed toxic chemical in waste (see
"Form A" below).
Form A
While expanding chemical and industry coverage,
EPA also provided a burden-reducing option for
facilities with relatively low quantities of listed toxic
chemicals in waste. Beginning in 1995, as the
expanded chemical list went into effect, facilities
whose total annual reportable amount of a listed toxic
chemical does not exceed 500 pounds can apply a
higher activity threshold in deteimining their
reporting obligations. The total annual reportable
amount is defined as the sum of the waste
1-9
-------
Chapter 1 - TRI Reporting and the 1997 Public Data Release
management categories that would be reported to
TRI: quantities released (including disposal),
recovered as a result of on-site recycling operations,
combusted on-site for energy recovery, and treated at
the facility, plus amounts transferred off-site for
recycling, energy recovery, treatment, and disposal.
These amounts correspond to total production-related
waste in this report.
If the facility does not exceed the total production-
related amount of 500 pounds, and does not
manufacture, process, or otherwise use more than 1
million pounds of the listed chemical, the facility does
not have to file a Form R. Instead of filing a Form R
detailing all its releases and waste management
activities, the facility can submit a certification
statement (Form A). Form A certifies that the facility
met tihe conditions outlined above for the listed
chemical, but does not require reporting of any
amounts of the toxic chemical released or otherwise
managed as waste.
Future TRI Modifications
Prevention Act Reporting
Under the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990 (PPA),
EPA is required to collect information on source
reduction and recycling activities on TRI's Form R. In
September 1991, all facilities subject to TRI reporting
were required to provide the following data:
• Quantity of the chemical (prior to recycling,
treatment, or disposal) entering any waste stream
or released to the environment;
• Quantities of the chemical recycled at the facility
and elsewhere;
• Quantities of the chemical treated at the facility
and elsewhere;
* Information on source reduction activities and the
methods used to identify those activities;
* Quantities of the chemical released in one-time
events not associated with production processes;
* Quantities of the chemical expected to enter any
waste stream or be recycled in future years; and
* Production ratio or activity index for the reported
chemical.
This change in the program generated many
comments (regarding, for example, definitions of
waste stream, reportable recycling, and in-process
recycling) from industry, environmental groups, and
the public. Therefore, EPA sought to develop a
consensus approach through a special subcommittee
of the National Advisory Committee on
Environmental Protection and Technology
(NACEPT), which was composed of industry,
environmental groups and governmental agencies. As
a result of those discussions, the Agency is currently
developing a supplemental notice of proposed
rulemaking (SNPR) and final rule.
Redesign of TRI Reporting Forms and TRI
Stakeholder Dialogue
In May 1997, when EPA finalized the industry
expansion rule, the Vice President announced that the
Agency would initiate an intensive stakeholder
process to comprehensively evaluate the current
reporting forms (Form R and Form A) and reporting
practices relating to the TRI Program. The goals of
this process were to improve the type of right-to-
know information available to communities and to
help streamline right-to-know reporting to ease the
paperwork burden for businesses affected by the
requirements. EPA utilized the Toxics Data Reporting
Committee (TDR) of the National Advisory Council
for Environmental Policy and Technology (NACEPT)
and additional public stakeholder meetings to obtain
input from interested parties on these issues.
NACEPT is a federal advisory committee under the
Federal Advisory Committee Act, PL 92-463. It
provides advice and recommendations to the
Administrator of EPA on a broad range of
environmental policy issues. The TDR committee was
created under NACEPT's auspices. The TDR
committee consisted of 24 members from industry,
1-10
-------
Chapter 1 - TRI Reporting and the 1997 Public Data Release
academia, government agencies, environmental
groups, environmental justice groups, labor, and
public interest groups. After meeting eight times
during fiscal years 1998 and 1999 and completing a
final report, the committee identified possible
improvements and burden reduction measures in the
TRI Program. The committee also supplied EPA with
ideas about how EPA presents the data to the public.
EPA has reviewed the suggestions received from
NACEPT and already implemented some of the
Committee's ideas and is currently pursuing the
implementation of other Committee ideas. Some
examples of Committee suggestions already
implemented by EPA include industry-specific
guidance documents, the inclusion of economic and
production information in industry sector chapters in
the annual data release, and examples of sector-
specific success stories in the data release. Some
examples of Committee ideas that EPA is currently
pursuing include an intelligent TRI software that
would lead users through the reporting requirements
of EPCRA section 313, a TRI users guide for the
general public, and a hazard matrix for EPCRA
section 313 chemicals. Once the new Information
Office is established, the Agency expects to establish
a new mechanism for stakeholder input on TRI and
other information access issues.
In addition to the NACEPT process, EPA obtained
additional views and information from stakeholders
by holding a number of smaller meetings for
interested parties. EPA held seven public meetings to
solicit comments from stakeholders regarding the
issues outlined above. These meetings were held in
Washington, DC; San Francisco, CA; Chicago, IL;
Dallas, TX; New York, NY; Kansas City, KS; and
Atlanta, GA.
Airports Petition and Rulemaking Update
On April 16, 1997, EPA received a petition from the
Natural Resources Defense Council, the Defenders of
Wildlife, the National Audubon Society, and the
Humane Society of the U.S. requesting EPA to
initiate rulemaking to add SIC code 45, transportation
by air, to the list of facilities required to report to TRI.
The petitioners stated that airports should report
because they meet EPA's three criteria for adding
facilities under section 313 of EPCRA. In addition,
the petitioners asserted that requiring such reporting
would further the purposes of EPCRA by making TRI
information publicly available to communities located
near airports.
In response, EPA issued a Notice of Receipt and
request for comments in the Federal Register on
February 10,1998. In the notice, the Agency
published the full text of the petition and requested
comments on 1) whether the use of TRI chemicals
would or should be exempt under the Motor Vehicle
Maintenance Exemption, 40 CFR 372.38(c), and 2)
the practical impacts of requiring airports to report
under section 313 of EPCRA. The Agency recognizes
that if airports were required to report under section
313 of EPCRA and 6607 of the PPA, there could be
unique reporting issues associated with their
ownership, operation, and control. Therefore,
information gathered from those who commented on
the February 10, 1998, Federal Register notice will be
instrumental in helping the Agency determine whether
to add airports as facilities that should report to TRI.
Additionally, EPA is presently considering changes to
the motor vehicle maintenance exemption, as well as
the structural component exemption, the routine
janitorial and facility grounds maintenance
exemption, the personal use exemption, and the intake
water/air exemption. These exemptions were
implemented at the origin of the program to exempt
ancillary uses of toxic chemicals at facilities in the
manufacturing sector. However, if airports are added
to EPCRA section 313 reporting, these exemptions, in
particular the motor vehicles maintenance exemption,
would exempt a significant majority of the releases
and other waste management activities. Uses of toxic
chemicals to maintain airplanes and other vehicles at
airports are instrumental to the business of the airport.
Thus, if EPA adds airports to EPCRA section 313, the
Agency must make changes to the motor vehicle
maintenance exemption so that releases of concern to
the community would be reported by airports.

Cftapter 1 - TRI Reporting and the 1997 Public Data Release
International Aspects of TRI
Toxic chemical releases know no boundaries. While
TRI data provide a wealth of information about
releases, on-site waste management, and off-site
transfers of toxic chemicals within the U.S.,
information from other countries is limited. This,
however, is changing. There are an increasing number
of countries developing TRI-like systems. The
international term for these systems is Pollutant
Release and Transfer Registers (PRTRs).
The real stimulus for PRTRs was the 1992 United
Nations conference on the environment, popularly
known as the Earth Summit. One conclusion from this
conference was the benefit and value of PRTRs.
Countries were encouraged to develop these systems.
In an important step, the Earth Summit also linked
these PRTR systems with public Right-to-Know, an
integral aspect of TRI.
Since 1992, there has been a growing interest in
PRTRs. The Organisation for Economic Cooperation
and Development (OECD), an organization of 29
industrialized democracies, created a guidance
document for governments on PRTRs. Development
of this guidance manual included the participation of
representatives from government, industry, and other
non-governmental organizations. Following the
publication of this manual in 1996 and recognizing
the value and importance of PRTR systems to
environmental protection, the OECD environment
ministers issued a Council Recommendation that
encourages all OECD nations to establish PRTR
systems.
For developing nations, the United Nations Institute
for Training and Research (UNITAR) developed a
step-by-step process, with accompanying guidance
manuals, on how to implement a PRTR system. In an
initial phase, UNITAR selected three countries to
serve in a pilot program (Mexico, Czech Republic,
Egypt). The goal was to take the lessons learned from
this pilot stage to help other industrializing nations
develop PRTR systems.
Currently, PRTR work now has entered its second
stage. While the initial work, including the OECD's
guidance manual and UNITAR's pilot program,
focused on creating the framework for PRTR
development, the second stage is shifting to greater
coordination between countries and international
organizations. This is exemplified by a recent
international conference on PRTR systems, which
focused on measuring progress, identifying barriers,
and discussing options for cooperation between
nations. The PRTR conference was held in
September, 1998, by the OECD, along with UNITAR
and the United Nations Environment Programme
(UNEP). Japan, which introduced legislation creating
its PRTR in February, 1999, played host to the
conference. The U.S. co-chaired the conference with
Japan in recognition of its role in the PRTR
movement.
Present work by the OECD focuses on facilitating the
integration of PRTR systems with chemicals
management activities. In 1999, the OECD is working
on a project that focuses on the beneficial link
between Environmental Management Systems (EMS),
such as ISO 14000, and PRTR data. Other work
includes a project for the OECD nations to coordinate
the development of estimation guidance documents
for industry.
UNITAR has moved from the three pilot nations to a
new group of countries. Using its materials developed
in the pilot stage, UNITAR is helping the Slovak
Republic and is in planning discussions with
Argentina. UNEP also is working with nations to
implement PRTR systems, including a project to
facilitate PRTR development in Russia, Ukraine,
Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.
Recognizing this new focus, the international
community has formed a PRTR Coordination Group
to coordinate and prevent duplication of efforts. The
U.S. is the chair of the group, while the OECD is the
Secretariat. With the number of countries with
operational PRTR systems growing from the present
eight (Australia, Canada, France, Mexico,
1-12
-------
Chapter 1 — TRI Reporting and the 1597 PubHc Data Release
Netherlands, Norway, United Kingdom, U.S.) to over
30 in the next few years, the need for this PRTR
Coordination Group is obvious.
A reflection of the international recognition of the
importance of PRTR systems is the recent selection of
PRTRs as a thematic discussion at the next meeting of
the Intergovernmental Forum on Chemical Safety
(IFCS). The IFCS is the body of governments that
guides the development of chemicals management
issues outlined at the 1992 Earth Summit. The
meeting is scheduled for October, 2000, in Brazil. As
the chair of the PRTR Coordination Group, the U.S.
will play a significant role in the planning for this
meeting.
On a more regional scale, North America offers the
first opportunity to collect PRTR data across a
continent. The U.S. has collected PRTR data since
1987. The first year of Canadian data is 1993, Mexico
is phasing in its PRTR system starting with the 1997
reporting year. Facilities must file air emissions data
for 1997, while voluntarily reporting for other
releases. Mexico intends to make these other media
mandatory.
Supporting this work is the Commission on
Environmental Cooperation (CEC), an organization
created by the environmental side agreements to the
North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).
The CEC has developed two important reports. The
first compares PRTR systems in the three North
American nations. The second report, developed
annually, compiles and analyzes the data from the
North American PRTR systems. The 1994, 1995, and
1996 reports include only U.S. and Canadian data.
The reports also provide information about the
Mexican PRTR system, with the goal of including
Mexican PRTR data when that system has data
comparable to the U.S. and Canadian data.
The U.S. will continue to work closely with other
countries and international organizations on PRTR
issues. The expanding work on PRTRs will require
the commitment and guidance of the U.S. and rely on
the growing experience of the TRI.
How Can I Obtain Additional TRI
Information?
The TRI data are available in an on-line computer
database and in a variety of common computer and
hard copy formats to ensure that everyone can easily
use the information. Information about accessing the
TRI database is provided on the inside front cover of
this report as well as in Appendix B. The TRI User
Support Service (202-260-1531) can provide
assistance in accessing and using the TRI data. On-
line services include the National Library of
Medicine's TOXNET system, the Right-to-Know
Network (RTK NET), and EPA's Envirofacts system.
Appendix B provides additional information on these
and other means of access to TRI data.

Chapter 2
National Overview of 1997 Toxics
Release Inventory
Introduction
This chapter summarizes information reported by TRI
facilities for calendar year 1997. This summary
includes data for facilities' on- and off-site releases of
TRI chemicals, other on-site waste management, and
transfers to off-site locations for further management.
This chapter also presents data on TRI chemicals
managed in waste in 1997: quantities recycled on- and
off-site, combusted for energy recovery on- and off-
site, and treated on- and off-site, along with quantities
released on- and off-site.
The chapter begins with a description of the
categories of releases and other waste management
activities that are reportable to TRI. It then describes
information on toxicity and exposure considerations
pertinent to use of TRI data. National, state, and
chemical analyses of the 1997 data follow. Chapter 3
examines chemical reporting over time, comparing
chemicals that have been reportable in all years (or
"core" chemicals). Chapter 4 analyzes release and
waste management data by industry sector for the 20
manufacturing sectors required to report to TRI in
1997.
TRI Releases and Waste
Management
Figure 2-1 illustrates on-site and off-site releases, on-
site waste management activities, and transfers off-
site for further waste management, reportable to TRI.
Box 2-1 describes reportable releases that may occur
on-site at the facility and identifies types of activities
that may contribute releases to various media. Box 2-
2 describes releases that may result from a facility's
transferring chemicals off-site for disposal. As noted
in Box 2-2, off-site releases include additional details
about off-site transfers of metals and metal
compounds, beginning with reporting year 1997. Box
2-3 explains how facilities should report metals and
metal compounds, and Box 2-4 describes EPA's
methodology for using these data in analyses in this
report. Box 2-5 lists on-site waste management
activities that are reportable to TRI. Box 2-6 describes
transfers off-site for further waste management.

Box 2 -1. An Explanation of On-site Releases
An Explanation of On-site Releases
A release is a discharge of a toxic chemical to the environment. On-site releases include emissions to the air, discharges to bodies of water,
releases at the facility to land, as well as releases into underground injection wells. Releases are reported to TRI by media type. On-site releases
are reported in Section 5 of Form R.
Air Emissions, Releases to air are reported either as point source or fugitive emissions. Point source emissions, also referred to as stack
emissions, occur through confined air streams, such as stacks, vents, ducts, or pipes. Fugitive emissions are all releases to air that are not
released through a confined air stream. Fugitive emissions include equipment leaks, evaporative losses from surface impoundments and spills,
and releases from building ventilation systems.
Surface Water Discharges. Releases to water include discharges to streams, rivers, lakes, oceans, and other bodies of water. This includes
releases from contained sources, such as industrial process outflow pipes or open trenches. Releases due to runoff, including stormwater runoff,
are also reportable to TRI.
Underground Injection. Underground injection is the subsurface emplacement of fluids through wells. TRI chemicals associated with
manufacturing, the petroleum industry, mining, commercial and service industries, and federal and municipal government-related activities may
be injected into Class I, II, HI, IV, or V wells, if they do not endanger underground sources of drinking water (USD W), public health, or the
environment. The different types of authorized injection activities are:
» Class I industrial, municipal, and manufacturing wells inject fluids into deep, confined, and isolated formations below potable water
supplies.
• Class II oil- and gas-related wells re-Inject produced fluids for disposal, enhanced recovery of oil, or hydrocarbon storage.
• Class HI wells are associated with the solution mining of minerals.
• Class IV wells may inject hazardous or radioactive fluids directly or indirectly into USDW, only if the injection is part of an authorized
CERCLA/RCRA clean-up operation.
• .Class V wells, which include all types of injection wells that do not fall under I-IV, may inject only if they do not endanger USDW, public
health, or the environment. Class V wells are, generally, shallow drainage wells, such as floor drains connected to dry wells or drain fields.
Beginning with the 1996 reporting year, facilities separately report amounts injected into Class I wells and into all other wells.
On-site Land Releases. On-site releases to land occur within the boundaries of the reporting facility. Releases to land include disposal of toxic
chemicals in landfills (in which wastes are buried), land treatment/application farming (in which a waste containing a listed chemical is applied
to or incorporated into soil), surface impoundments (which are uncovered holding areas used to volatilize and/or settle waste materials), and,
other land disposal methods (such as waste piles) or releases to land (such as spills or leaks). Beginning with the 1996 reporting year, facilities
separately report amounts released to RCRA subtitle C landfills from amounts released to other on-site landfills.
Box 2-2. An Explanation of Off-site Releases (Transfers Off-site to Disposal)
An Explanation of Off-site Releases (Transfers Off-site to Disposal)
An off-site release is a discharge of a toxic chemical to.the environment that occurs as a result of a facility's transferring a waste containing a
TRI chemical off-site to disposal, as reported in Section 6 of Form R. Certain other types of transfers are also categorized as off-site releases
because, except for location, the outcome of transferring the chemical off-site is the same as releasing it on-site.
Transfers to Disposal. Toxic chemicals in waste that are transferred off-site for disposal generally are either released to land at an off-site facility
or are injected underground. (See discussion of on-site releases to.land and underground injection for a description of these release types.)
Storage Only. Generally, a toxic chemical is sent off-site for storage because there is no known disposal method. One example is toxic chemicals
in mixed hazardous and radioactive waste. EPA considers this an off-site release because this method is being used as a form of disposal and the
toxic chemical will remain there indefinitely.
Unknown, The "unknown" category of disposal indicates that a facility is not aware of the type of waste management used for the toxic
chemical that is sent off-site. Therefore, EPA has categorized this method as the lowest type of waste management (environmentally least
desirable) and has included it as a type of disposal for reporting purposes. Thus, it is considered to be an off-site release.
Metals and Metal Compounds. The transfer of metals and metal compounds to solidification/stabilization and to wastewater treatment (either
publicly or privately owned treatment works) also result in releases and are classified as off-site releases (transfers to disposal) (see Box 2-3).

3ter 2 - National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release Inventory
Box 2-3. How Metals and Metal Compounds Should be Reported to TRI
How Metals and Metal Compounds Should be Reported to TRI
In Section 6.1 of Form R, facilities report amounts of listed chemicals transferred to publicly owned treatment works (POTWs). Because metals
are not destroyed by sewage treatment processes, amounts of metals and metal compounds reported in Section 6.1 are considered transfers to
disposal,
In Section 6.2 of Form R, facilities report the amounts sent to each off-site location to which the facility ships or transfers wastes containing the
reported toxic chemical for the purposes of recycling, energy recovery, treatment, or disposal. Metals and metal compounds are managed in
waste either by being released (including disposal) or by being recycled. The metal has no heat value and thus cannot be combusted for energy
recovery and cannot be treated because it cannot be destroyed regardless of whether the stream containing the metal is sent for energy recovery
or treatment. Thus, transfers of metals and metal compounds for further waste management should be reported as either a transfer for recycling or
a transfer for disposal. The applicable waste management code for transfers of metals and metal compounds for recycling is M24. Applicable
codes for transfers for disposal include M10, M41, M62, M71, M72, M73, M79, M90, M94, and M99. Two codes, M41 and M62, were new for
the 1997 reporting year. These codes are for transfers to waste management in which the wastestream may be treated but the metal contained in
the wastestream is not treated and is ultimately released. For example, M41 would be used for a metal or metal compound which is stabilized in
preparation for disposal.
Prior to the 1997 reporting year, some facilities reported transfers of metals and metal compounds for further waste management using two waste
treatment codes, M40 and M61. Beginning in reporting year 1997, metals and metal compounds must be reported using one of the 10 disposal
codes or the applicable recycling code (M24 for metals recovery).
Off-site Transfers for Further Waste Management: Codes from Section 6.2 of Form R

M69 Other Waste Treatment
M95 Transfer to Waste Broker-Waste Treatment
In Section 8.1 of Form R, facilities report quantities of listed chemicals released on- and off-site (excluding one-time catastrophic or remedial
releases). Except for those quantities recycled, metals and metal compounds should be reported in Section 8.1 of the Form R. This includes those
quantities of metals and metal compounds reported in:
• Section 5 as on-site releases
• Section 6.2 as sent off-site for stabilization/solidification (M4I) or wastewater treatment (excluding POTWs) (M62) and/or,
• Section 6.1 as discharges to POTWs.
These quantities should not be reported in Section 8.7 of the Form R.

Box 2-4. Use of Data for Metals and Metal Compounds in This Report
Use of Data for Metals and Metal Compounds in This Report
Off-site releases (transfers to disposal) in tables in this report include the quantities of metals and metal compounds that were reported using the
incorrect waste management codes, M40 and M61, in Section 6.2 (e.g., waste treatment codes instead of recycling or disposal codes) along with
the quantities of metals and metal compounds that were reported correctly in Section 6.2. For the years prior to 1997 (presented in Chapter 3),
EPA has also included the quantities of metals and metal compounds that were reported using the two waste management codes, M40 and M61,
as off-site releases rather than off-site waste treatment. In addition, when discussing off-site releases of TRI chemicals, EPA has included those
quantities of metals and metals compounds reported as discharges to POTWs in Section 6.1 of the Form R.
Chemicals considered to be metals and metal compounds in this report appear in Tables 2-11 through 2-13.
Box 2-5. An Explanation of On-site Waste Management
An Explanation of On-site Waste Management
On-site waste management activities are reported in Section 8 of Form R. These amounts do not include one-time events such as accidental
releases or remediation (clean-up).
Recycled On-site. This is the quantity of the toxic chemical recovered at the facility and made available for further use. To avoid double-
counting, the amount reported represents the amount exiting the recycling unit. It is not the quantity that entered an on-site recycling or recovery
operation. For example, 3,000 pounds of a listed chemical enters a recycling operation. Of this, 500 pounds of the chemical are in residues from
the recycling operation that are subsequently sent off-site for disposal. The quantity reported as recycled on-site would be 2,500 pounds.
Used for Energy Recovery On-site. This is the quantity of the toxic chemical that was combusted in some form of energy recovery device, such
as a furnace (including kilns) or boiler. The toxic chemical should have a heating value high enough to sustain combustion. To avoid double-
counting, the amount reported represents the amount destroyed in the combustion process, not the amount that entered the energy recovery unit.
For example, 100,000 pounds of toluene entered a boiler that, on average, combusted 98% of the toluene. Any remaining toluene was discharged
to air. A total of 98,000 pounds is reported as combusted for energy recovery (the remaining 2,000 pounds is reported as released).
Treated On-site. This is the quantity of the toxic chemical destroyed in on-site waste treatment operations, not the amount that entered a
treatment operation. For example, if 100,000 pounds of benzene were combusted in an incinerator that destroyed 99% of the benzene, the facility
would report 99,000 pounds as treated on-site (the remaining 1,000 pounds would be reported as released).

Box 2 - S. An Explanation of Transfers Off-site for Further Waste Management
An Explanation of Transfers Off-site for Further Waste Management
An off-site transfer, reported in Section 6 of Form R, is the transfer of toxic chemicals in waste to a facility that is geographically or physically
separate from the facility reporting under TRI. Chemicals reported to TRI as transferred are sent to off-site facilities for the purposes of
recycling, energy recovery, treatment, or disposal. The amounts reported represent a movement of the chemical away from the reporting facility.
Except for off-site transfers to disposal, these amounts do not necessarily represent entry of the chemical into the environment. Transfers to
disposal represent an off-site release {see Box 2-2).
Transfers Off-site to Rety'ding. Toxic chemicals in waste that are sent off-site for the purposes of recycling are generally recovered by a variety
of recycling methods, including solvent recovery and metals recovery. The choice of the recycling method depends on the toxic chemical being
sent for recycling. Once they have been recycled, these chemicals may be returned to the originating facility for further processing or made
available for use in commerce.
Transfers Off-site to Energy Recovery. Toxic chemicals in waste sent off-site for purposes of energy recovery are combusted off-site in
industrial furnaces (including kilns) or boilers that generate heat or energy for use at that location. Treatment of a chemical by incineration is not
considered to be energy recovery.
Transfers Off-site to Treatment. Toxic chemicals in waste that are transferred off-site may be treated through a variety of methods, including
biological treatment, neutralization, incineration, and physical separation. These methods typically result in varying degrees of destruction of the
toxic chemical.
Transfers to Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTWs). A POTW is a wastewater treatment facility that is owned by a state or municipality.
Wastewatcrs from facilities reporting under TRI are transferred through pipes or sewers to a POTW. Treatment or removal of a chemical from
the wastewater depends upon the nature of the chemical, as well as the treatment methods present at the POTW. In general, chemicals that are
easily utilized as nutrients by microorganisms, or have a low solubility in water, are likely to be removed to some extent. Chemicals that are
volatile and have a low solubility in water may evaporate into the atmosphere. Not all TRI chemicals can be treated or removed by a POTW.
Some chemicals, such as metals, may be removed, but are not destroyed and may be disposed of in landfills or discharged to receiving waters;
transfers of metals and metal compounds to POTWs are categorized as off-site releases, as explained in Boxes 2-2 and 2-3.
Other Off-site Transfers. In this report, toxic chemicals in waste that were reported as transferred off-site but for which the off-site activity (i.e.,
recycling, energy recovery, treatment, or disposal) was not specified or was not an accepted code have been classified as "other off-site
transfers,"

Chapter 2 — National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release fnvento,
TRI Chemicals Managed in Waste
The Pollution Prevention Act of 1990 (PPA) requires
facilities to report information about the quantities of
TRI chemicals they manage in waste, both on- and
off-site. The PPA also requires facilities to provide
information about their efforts to reduce or eliminate
those quantities. Facilities began reporting this
information with the 1991 reporting year.
The Pollution Prevention Act established as national
policy that source reduction is the preferred approach
to managing waste. Source reduction is defined as an
activity that prevents the generation of waste. The
PPA also established as national policy a hierarchy of
waste management options, illustrated in Figure 2-2,
for situations where source reduction cannot be
implemented feasibly.
Source m
Reduction
Disposal
Figure 2-2. Waste Management Hierarchy
recycling reduces the need for treatment or disposal of
waste and helps conserve energy and natural
resources. Where source reduction and recycling are
not feasible, waste can be treated. Release (including
disposal) of a chemical is viewed as a last resort, to be
employed only if the preferred methods of waste
management cannot be implemented. The PPA did
not specifically address the combustion of waste for
energy recovery as a waste management option.
However, because energy recovery shares aspects of
recycling and treatment, EPA chose to list this
activity separately in the waste management
hierarchy.
Throughout this book, data tables present waste
management information in the order of the
hierarchy: recycling, energy recovery, treatment, and
release (including disposal).
Waste Management Information Collected
Box 2-7 describes the waste management information
facilities must report to TRI. The amount of TRI
chemicals in waste reported includes both waste
generated by the facility and waste received by the
facility for the purpose of waste management.
Facilities report these data as estimates for the
reporting year (1997) and the previous year (1996)
and as projections for the two following years (1998
and 1999). The PPA requires this data projection to
encourage facilities to consider their future waste
generation, opportunities for source reduction, and
potential improvement in waste management options
as presented in the hierarchy. Future-year estimates
are not commitments that facilities reporting to TRI
must meet.
Although source reduction is the preferred method of
-reducing risk, environmentally sound recycling shares
many of its advantages. Like source reduction,

Information about facilities* management of TRI chemicals in waste is reported in Section 8 of Form R.
Recycled On-slte. This is the quantity of the toxic chemical recovered at the facility and made available for further use. To avoid double-
Counting, the amount reported represents the amount exiting the recycling unit. It is not the quantity that entered an on-site recycling or recovery
operation. For example, 3,000 pounds of a listed chemical enters a recycling operation. Of this, 500 pounds of the chemical are in residues from
the recycling operation that are subsequently sent off-site for disposal. The quantity reported as recycled on-site would be 2,500 pounds.
Recycled Off-site, This is the quantity of the toxic chemical that left the facility boundary for recycling, not the amount recovered at the off-site
location. This quantity includes the amount(s) reported in Section 6 of Form R as transferred off-site for recycling, less any amount(s) associated
with non-rouline events,
Used for Energy Recovery On-site. This is the quantity of the toxic chemical that was combusted in some form of energy recovery device, such
as a furnace 0neluding kilns) or boiler. The toxic chemical should have a heating value high enough to sustain combustion. To avoid double-
counting, the amount reported represents the amount destroyed in the combustion process, not the amount that entered the energy recovery unit.
For example, 100,000 pounds of toluene entered a boiler that, on average, combusted 98% of the toluene. Any remaining toluene was discharged
to air. A total of 98,000 pounds is reported as combusted for energy recovery (the remaining 2,000 pounds is reported as released).
Used for Energy Recovery Off-site. This is the quantity of the toxic chemical that left the facility boundary for energy recovery, not the amount
combusted at the off-site location. The toxic chemical must have a significant heating value, and the off-site location must have some form of
energy recovery unit in place. This quantity includes the amount(s) reported in Section 6 of Form R as transferred off-site for energy recovery,
less any amount(s) associated with non-routine events.
Treated On-slte, This is the quantity of the toxic chemical destroyed in on-site waste treatment operations, not the amount that entered a
treatment operation. For example, if 100,000 pounds of benzene were combusted in an incinerator that destroyed 99% of the benzene, the facility
would report 99,000 pounds as treated on-site (the remaining 1,000 pounds would be reported as released).
Treated Off-site. This is the quantity of the toxic chemical that left the facility boundary and was sent to POTWs or other off-site locations for
treatment, not the amount that was destroyed at the off-site location(s). This quantity includes the amount(s) reported in Section 6 of Form R as
transferred to POTWs or other off-site locations for treatment, less any amount(s) associated with non-routine events and not including quantities
of metals and metal compounds (see Box 2-3).
Released On- and Off-site. This is the total quantity of the toxic chemical that was released to the environment or disposed of at the facility
(directly discharged to air, land, and water, and injected underground) or sent off-site for disposal. This quantity is the sum of the amounts
reported in Sections 5 and 6 of Form R (releases plus transfers to disposal and transfers to POTWs of metals and metal compounds) less any
amount(s) associated with non-routine events.
Production-related Waste Managed. This includes: quantities released to the environment both at the facility and sent off-site for release
(including disposal); quantities treated at the facility or sent off-site for treatment; quantities combusted for energy recovery at the facility or sent
off-site for energy recovery; and quantities recycled at the facility or sent off-site for recycling. Source reduction or other movement up the
waste management hierarchy is feasible for these production-related wastes. Production related wastes do not include quantities reported as
released to the environment due to one-time events.
Released to the Environment Due to One-time Events. This amount is referred to as non-production-related waste and is the quantity released to
the environment or sent off-site for recycling, energy recovery, treatment, or disposal due to one-time events not associated with routine
production practices. Such events include catastrophic events, such as accidental releases, as well as remedial actions (clean up). This quantity is
separated from the quantities recycled, used for energy recovery, treated, and released, to distinguish between quantities that are routinely
associated with production operations and are more amenable to source reduction and those that are not routinely associated with production
processes and are not so amenable to source reduction because they are not readily anticipated. This separation is important in assessing progress
in source reduction at facilities.
2-8
-------
Chapter 2 - National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release Invents
The individual waste management quantities reported
are mutually exclusive to avoid double-counting. For
example, an incinerator may destroy 99% of the
chemical in the waste; in this case, the amount
reported as treated on-site would be the amount
destroyed by the incinerator, not the amount that
entered the incinerator. The amount not destroyed in
incineration (1%) would be reported as released. The
sum of the individual quantities in a given year equals
the total quantity of TRI chemicals in waste resulting
from routine production operations at a facility during
that year.
For the reporting year only, facilities must also report
the quantity of waste released (including disposal) as
a result of activities other than routine production
operations. This quantity appears in data tables in this
book as "non-production-related waste managed." It
includes waste released to the environment at the
facility or transferred off-site because of catastrophic
events or remedial (clean-up) actions at the facility.
Non-production-related waste is considered less
amenable to source reduction because facilities cannot
reasonably anticipate these quantities.
It is important to note that facilities may vary in how
they interpret some of the reporting requirements
under the PPA. EPA has not yet specifically defined
in regulations the reporting requirements for these
data elements, so some facilities may include in their
reports amounts that other facilities do not believe
they must include. Because of this, higher quantities
of TRI chemicals in waste for a particular state or
industry may reflect not only differences in actual
quantities, but also different interpretations of the
reporting requirements.
What to Consider When Using TRI
Data
Users of TRI information should be aware that TRI
data reflect releases and other waste management of
chemicals, not exposures of the public to those
chemicals. TRI data, in conjunction with other
information, can be used as a starting point in
evaluating exposures that may result from releases
and other waste management activities which involve
toxic chemicals. The determination of potential risk
depends upon many factors, including the toxicity of
the chemical, the fate of the chemical and the length
of their exposure after it is released, and the human or
other populations that are exposed to the chemical and
the length of their exposure after its release. Listed
below are some of the factors that should be
considered when reviewing TRI data.
Toxicity of the Chemical
The TRI list consists of chemicals that vary widely in
their ability to produce toxic effects.
$ Some high-volume releases of less toxic
chemicals may appear to be a more serious
problem than lower-volume releases or more toxic
chemicals, when just the opposite may be true.
For example, phosgene is toxic in smaller
quantities than methanol. A comparison between
these two chemicals for setting hazard priorities or
estimating potential health concerns, solely on the
basis of volumes released, may be misleading.
Exposure Considerations
4 Potential degradation or persistence of the
chemical in the environment. Exposure to a
chemical is dependent upon the chemical being
available. The longer the chemical remains
unchanged in the environment, the greater the
potential for exposure. Sunlight, heat, or
microorganisms may or may not decompose the
chemical.
* For example, microorganisms readily degrade
some chemicals, such as methanol, into less
toxic chemicals; volatile organic compounds,
such as ethylene and propylene, react in the
atmosphere and contribute to the formation of
smog; metals are persistent and will not
degrade upon release to the environment.

Chapter 2 - National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release Inventory
» As a result, smaller releases of a persistent,
highly toxic chemical may create a more
serious problem than larger releases of a
chemical that is rapidly converted to a less
toxic form.
Bioconcentration of the chemical in the food
chain. As a chemical becomes incorporated in the
food chain, it may concentrate or disperse as it
moves up the food chain.
« Some chemicals, such as mercury, accumulate
as they move up the food chain.
• Small releases of a chemical that
bioaccumulates may result in significant
exposures to consumers.
The environmental medium (air, water, land,
or underground injection) to which the toxic
chemical has been released. Chemical exposure
of a population depends on the environmental
medium to which a chemical is released. The
medium also affects the types of exposures
possible, such as inhalation, dermal exposure, or
ingestion.
• Releases of a chemical to the air can result in
exposures to organisms living near and
downwind from facilities releasing toxic
chemicals to the atmosphere. Persistent
chemicals may fall or precipitate from air onto
land or into water bodies, resulting in
exposures via these environmental media.
• Exposures that may result from releases to
water bodies (streams, lakes, etc.) depend in
part on the downstream uses of the water,
including drinking, cooking, and bathing.
* Injection of toxic chemicals into properly
designed and constructed Class I wells will
result in substantially lower exposure potential
than more direct forms of environmental
release. These wells are designed to entomb
liquid wastes for at least 10,000 years.
The type of off-site facility receiving the
chemical and the efficiency of its waste
management practices. The amount of a toxic
chemical that ultimately enters the environment
depends on how the chemical was handled during
disposal, treatment, energy recovery, or recycling
activities. Several factors to keep in mind when
considering amounts sent off-site are presented
below:
» The efficiency of recycling operations varies
depending on the method of recycling and the
chemical being recycled.
• Use of a combustible toxic chemical for
energy recovery typically results in the
destruction of 95% to 99% or more of the
toxic chemical. The remaining quantity may
be either released to air or disposed of in ash
to land.
• The efficiency of the treatment of toxic
chemicals in waste sent to sewage treatment
plants varies depending on the chemical and
the sewage plant. This means that the amount
of a toxic chemical that ultimately enters the
environment may be an underestimate because
of these differences in treatment efficiencies.
For example, some high-volume pollutants,
such as methanol, are readily degraded by
most sewage treatment plants. Other
chemicals, such as methyl ethyl ketone
(MEK), may be partially treated and partially
released. Other high-volume chemicals, such
as ammonia, are not readily treated by most
sewage treatment plants and will pass through
the plant into the aquatic environment. In
addition, metals sent to sewage treatment
2-10

Chapter 2 - National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release Invento,
plants may be removed with solid wastes and
sent to landfills, or they may pass through the
plant and be discharged into surface waters;
they are not, however, destroyed,
• The efficiency of other treatment methods,
such as incineration, also depends upon the
specifications of the treatment facility and the
nature of the chemical.
• Toxic chemicals in waste sent off-site for
disposal are typically released to land or
injected underground.
4 On-site waste management of the toxic
chemical. As with off-site waste management, the
amount of the toxic chemical released to the
environment depends on how the chemical was
handled during disposal, treatment, energy
recovery, or recycling activities. However, since
the waste management is on-site, any amount of
the chemical that enters the environment after
waste management is reported to TRI as part of
that facility's releases.
1997 National Overview
This chapter discusses and analyzes data for 1997 for
all chemicals reported under TRI.
For 1997, 21,490 facilities filed 71,670 TRI reporting
forms, an average of 3.3 forms per facility (see Table
2-1). Fifteen percent of the submissions were Form A
certification statements rather than the Form R
detailed reporting form. EPA established the Form A
certification option, beginning with the 1995
reporting year, for facilities that meet TRI reporting
thresholds, but whose total annual reportable amount1
The total annual reportable amount is defined as the sum of the
production-related waste management categories that would be reported to TRI:
quantities released (including disposal), recovered as a result of recycling
operations, combusted for energy recovery, or treated at the facility, plus
amounts transferred off-site for recycling, energy recovery, treatment, or
disposal. These amounts correspond to total production-related waste in this
report.
for a listed chemical does not exceed 500 pounds and
who do not manufacture, process, or otherwise use
more than 1 million pounds of the chemical. Form A
certification statements do not report amounts of
chemical releases, transfers, or other waste
management activities. (Form A certification
statements are further explained in Chapter 1.)

On- and Off-site Releases
In 1997, on- and off-site releases reported to TRI
totaled 2.58 billion pounds of toxic chemicals, as
shown in Table 2-2. This includes amounts released
directly to the air, water, or land, as well as disposal
of toxic chemicals on-site or off-site in landfills,
surface impoundments, land treatment, and
underground injection wells.
On-site Releases
On-site releases totaled 2.12 billion pounds (see Table
2-2). The largest category was air emissions, with
1.33 billion pounds. These releases to air consisted of
1.01 billion pounds of point source (stack) emissions
and 317.2 million pounds of non-point (fugitive)
emissions. As shown in Figure 2-3, air emissions
represented two-thirds (62.9%) of all on-site releases.
Facilities discharged 218.4 million pounds of toxic
chemicals into the nation's rivers, lakes, bays, and
other bodies of water in 1997. Underground injection
totaled 219.5 million pounds, and 99.8% of this
amount went to Class I wells (described in Box 2-1).
Another 346.9 million pounds was released on-site to
land. Of this total, the largest amount (130.0 million

Off-site Releases
As explained in Box 2-2, off-site releases in this
report consist of two general types of off-site
transfers: transfers of all TRI chemicals to disposal
(including landfills, surface impoundments,
underground injection, and other disposal practices
including storage) and transfers of metals and metal
compounds to solidification/stabilization and to
wastewater treatment by private treatment services or
publicly owned treatment works (POTWs, or
municipal sewage treatment facilities).
TRI facilities reported a total of 461.1 million pounds
of toxic chemicals in transfers off-site that represent
releases to the environment (see Table 2-2). The
majority of the off-site releases - 251.9 million
pounds - was sent to disposal in landfills or disposal
surface impoundments. Another 144.3 million pounds
consisted of metals and metal compounds sent to
solidification or stabilization. Together, these two

Other On-site Waste Management
Facilities reported other on-site waste management—
recycling, energy recovery, and treatment—totaling
18.81 billion pounds in 1997 (see Table 2-2).
Recycling amounted to 7.99 billion pounds. On-site
energy recovery totaled 3.81 billion pounds in 1997,
and treatment totaled 7.01 billion pounds.
As shown in Figure 2-5,42.5% of other on-site waste
management consisted of recycling.
Transfers Off-site for Further Waste
Management
In 1997, facilities sent 3.42 billion pounds of toxic
chemicals to off-site locations for further waste
management: recycling, energy recovery, or treatment
(including POTWs), as also shown in Table 2-2. As

was recycling. Transfers to recycling totaled 2.38
billion pounds. This amounted to 69.7% of the off-
site transfers, as shown in Figure 2-6.
TRI facilities also reported sending 508.0 million
pounds of toxic chemicals off-site to be burned for
energy recovery. Transfers to treatment totaled 258.7
million pounds, while transfers to POTWs totaled
266.9 million pounds.
TRI Chemicals Managed in Waste
In 1997, TRI facilities reported managing 24.73
billion pounds of TRI chemicals in production-related
waste, as shown in Table 2-3. However, two facilities
revised their submissions after the TRI data were
"frozen" for preparation of this report. These
revisions, described below, would change total
production-related waste managed to 23.85 billion
pounds.
A total of 7.99 billion pounds was recycled on-site,
while another 7.01 billion pounds was treated on-site.
On-site energy recovery was the third-largest waste
management method, with 3.81 billion pounds.

These revisions would change on-site energy recovery
to a total of 2.93 billion pounds.
Quantities released onr and off-site ranked fourth
among waste management options in 1997, with 2.47
billion pounds.
As shown in Figure 2-7, TRI facilities managed the
majority of their production-related waste by
recycling and energy recovery. In the waste
management hierarchy (explained earlier in this
chapter), these represent environmentally preferable
options for chemicals in waste that cannot be
prevented in the first place.
Recycling on- and off-site and energy recovery on-
and off-site accounted for nearly 60% of production-
related waste in 1997. Approximately 30% of the
waste was treated on- and off-site, environmentally a
less desirable management method. Ten percent of the
waste was reported in the least desirable option,
quantity released on- and off-site.
Differences between Amounts Reported in
Sections 5 and 6 and ih Section 8 of Form R
The quantity released on- and off-site presented in
Table 2-3 is not the same as the total on- and off-site
releases presented in Table 2-2. This difference arises
primarily from the types of releases reported on
different sections of the Form R. The quantity
released on- and off-site in Table 2-3 reflects all on-
and off-site releases as collected in Section 5 of the
Form R and transfers off-site for disposal as reported
hi Section 6 (including metals and metal compounds
as described in Box 2-3). However, total on- and off-
site releases in Table 2-2 is limited to production-
related on- and off-site releases as collected in Section
8.1 of the Form R. Although these totals are often the
same, production-related releases reported in Section
8.1 do not include those releases associated with
catastrophic events, remedial actions, or other one-
time events not related to production. For the same
reason, transfers for recycling, energy recovery, and
treatment (including POTWs for non-metals) reported
in Section 6 do not exactly correspond with similar
quantities reported in Section 8. Once again, the
relevant parts in Section 8 only include the waste
management of production-related materials.
Other reasons also contribute to the different
quantities reported in different sections of the Form
R. For example, a release or transfer of less than
1,000 pounds may be reported in ranges hi Section 5
and 6 whereas an exact amount must be included in
Section 8. Furthermore, facilities may round off the
quantities reported in Section 8 to two significant
digits.
1997 TRI Data by State
Tables 2-4 through 2-8 present the distribution of TRI
releases and other waste management by state. No
reports were received in 1997 for the Northern
Mariana Islands.

On- and Off-site Releases by State
Ql?-s/te Releases
The top states for total releases in 1997 were Texas
with 261.7 million pounds, Louisiana with 186.0
million pounds, and Ohio with 158.7 million pounds
(see Table 2-4). These were also the top-ranking
states for on-site releases. Ranking fourth and fifth for
total on- and off-site releases were Pennsylvania with
143.2 million pounds and Illinois with 127.6 million
pounds. Another three states also exceeded 100
million pounds each: Indiana with 122.5 million
pounds, Tennessee with 106.9 million pounds, and
Utah with 103.7 million pounds. Map 2-1 illustrates
the geographic distribution of TR! on-site releases.
Texas facilities reported primarily air emissions -
108.4 million pounds—and underground
injection—89.9 million pounds. These were the largest
amounts of air emissions and underground injection
reported in any state. Tennessee ranked second for
releases to air with 81.9 million pounds, and
Louisiana ranked third with 74.8 million pounds.
For underground injection, Louisiana facilities
reported the second-largest total (54.2 million
pounds), and Florida ranked third (with 27.5 million
pounds). All underground injection in the top three
states was reported as injected to Class I wells.
Facilities in California reported the largest amount of
injection to Class II-V wells, 415,000 pounds.
Facilities in 29 states and territories reported no
underground injection. (Some states are not
geologically suitable for the practice of underground
injection. Others have banned this disposal method or
have never implemented an underground injection
control program.)
Louisiana led all states for surface water discharges,
with 46.9 million pounds, followed by Pennsylvania
with 38.5 million pounds and Texas with 20.8 million
pounds.
Facilities reported larger total on-site land releases in
Montana than in any other state, 37.7 million pounds.
New Mexico facilities reported the second-largest
total, 31.6 million pounds, followed by Ohio with
28.7 million pounds. In Montana and New Mexico,
on-site land releases represented the great majority of
total on- and off-site releases reported in the state
(87.0% of the total in Montana and 92.5% in New
Mexico). In both of these states, the predominant
type of land release was "other disposal." In contrast,
on-site land releases by Ohio facilities amounted to
18.1% of that state's total on- and off-site releases.
The largest type of on-site land release in Ohio was
surface impoundment.

Note: On-sitc Releases from Section 5 of Form R, Off-site Releases are from Section 6 (transfers off-site to disposal) of Form R. Off-site Releases include metals
and metal compounds transferred off-site for solidification/stabilization and for wastewater treatment, including to POTWs.
Off-site Releases
As shown in Table 2-4, Pennsylvania facilities
reported 63.3 million pounds of off-site releases
(transfers off-site to disposal, including transfers of
metals and metal compounds to solidification/
stabilization, treatment, and POTWs). Ohio ranked
second with 45.5 million pounds, closely followed by
Indiana with 44.6 million pounds. Nearly half
(44.2%) of Pennsylvania's total releases were
transferred off-site for disposal, as were more than
one-quarter (28.7%) of Ohio's and more than one-
third of Indiana's (36.4%).
Nebraska was the only state in which off-site releases
(9.5 million pounds) were larger than on-site releases
(8.5 million pounds).
Table 2-5 more closely examines off-site releases by
state. Transfers to landfills/disposal surface
impoundments accounted for more than half of off-
site releases in 30 of the 55 states and territories. In
Pennsylvania, which ranked first for off-site releases,
facilities reported 47.9 million pounds of such
transfers, representing 75.7% of the state's total off-
site releases. Pennsylvania reported the nation's
largest amount in this category, accounting for 19.0%
of the U.S. total. One Pennsylvania facility reported

Note: On-site Releases from Section 5 of Fofm R. Off-site Releases are from Section 6 (transfers off-site to disposal) of Form R, Off-site Releases include metals
and metal compounds transferred off-site for solidification/stabilization and for wastewater treatment, including to POTWs.
*Because of an EPA data entry error for one facility, 51,817 pounds were incorrectly identified as underground injection to Class I wells in Virginia in 1997. This
amount should have been entered as discharged to surface waters. The correct amount for surface water discharges in Virginia is 3,859,721 pounds and the correct
amount for underground injection to Class I wells is zero. The error was corrected in the 1997 TRI Public Data Release State Fact Sheet for Virginia, but was not
discovered in time to be corrected in tables throughout this book.
transferring 22.9 million pounds of zinc compounds
to landfills/disposal surface impoundments.
Off-site releases of metals and metal compounds
included 144.3 million pounds sent to
solidification/stabilization, 6.1 million pounds in
wastestreams sent to treatment, and 2.4 million
pounds sent to POTWs. Arkansas facilities reported
the largest transfers of metals to solidification/
stabilization, 23.5 million pounds, and this amount
represented 86.0% of the state's total off-site releases.
Ohio ranked first for transfers of metals to wastewater
treatment (excluding POTWs) with 2.8 million
pounds. Illinois ranked first for transfers of metals and
metal compounds to POTWs with 401,000 pounds.
These transfers represented a much smaller proportion
of off-site releases in the two states: 6.0% of Ohio's
total and 1.2% of Illinois'.
As noted earlier in this chapter, transfers of metals to
solidification/stabilization and transfers of all TRI
chemicals to landfills/disposal surface impoundments
together constituted the large majority (85.9%) of all
off-site releases in 1997.

Note; Off-site Releases from Section 6 (off-site transfers to disposal) of Form R. Off-site Releases include metals and metal compounds transferred off-site for
solidification/ stabilization and for wastewater treatment, including to POTWs.
'"Storage only" (disposal code M10) indicates that the toxic chemical is sent off-site for storage because there is no known disposal method. Amounts reported as
transferred to "storage only" are included as a form of disposal (off-site release). See Box 2-2.
'Beginning in reporting year 1997, transfers to solidification/stabilization of metals and metal compounds (waste management code M41) are reported separately
from transfers to solidification/stabilization of non-metal TRI chemicals (waste management code M40). Because this treatment method prepares a metal for disposal,
but docs not destroy it, such transfers are included as a form of disposal (off-site release). See Box 2-3. Some facilities erroneously reported metals and metal
compounds using waste treatment code M40; in this report, such amounts have been included in solidification/stabilization of metals and metal compounds.

Note: Off-site Releases from Section 6 (off-site transfers to disposal) of Form R. Off-site Releases include metals and metal compounds transferred off-site for
solidification/stabilization and for wastewater treatment, including to POTWs,
"Beginning in reporting year 1997, transfers to wastewater treatment (excluding POTWs) of metals and metal compounds (waste management code M62) are reported
separately from transfers to wastewater treatment of non-metal TRI chemicals (waste management code M61). Because wastewater treatment does not destroy metals
such transfers are included as a form of disposal (off-site release). See Box 2-3. Some facilities erroneously reported metals and metal compounds using waste
treatment code M60; in this report, such amounts have been included in transfers of metals and metal compounds to wastewater treatment.
•"Reported as discharges to POTWs in,Section 6.1 of Form R. EPA considers transfers of metals and metal compounds to POTWs as an off-site release because
sewage treatment does not destroy the metal content of the waste material.
'"Unknown" (disposal code M99) indicates that a facility is not aware of the type of waste management used for the toxic chemical that is sent off-site. Amounts
reported as "unknown" transfers are treated as a form of disposal (off-site release).
2-21
-------
\Chaptsr 2 - National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release Inventory
Transfers Within and Among States
Off-site Releases
TRI facilities report the specific off-site locations to
which they are transferring TRI chemicals. Table 2-6
summarizes off-site releases (transfers to disposal)
that were transferred within the state, received into the
state from TRI facilities elsewhere, or sent out of
state. The largest transfers to disposal within a state
occurred in Pennsylvania, with 49.8 million pounds,
Ohio received the largest amount of such
transfers—61.0 million pounds—from facilities located
in other states. Arkansas shipped the largest
amount-—25.7 million pounds—of TRI chemicals to
disposal to locations outside of the state.
When all releases in a state are taken into account,
Texas led all states and territories for the largest total
on- and off-site releases reported as occurring within
the state. TRI facilities reported on- and off-site
releases in Texas of 258.3 million pounds (whether
originating from facilities in Texas or transferred into
Texas from facilities in other states and territories).
By this accounting, Ohio ranked second with 213.0
million pounds and Louisiana ranked third with 189.4
million pounds, reversing their ranking for total on-
and off-site releases (discussed above).
Most off-site releases were transferred within the state
where they originated (285.9 million pounds). A total
of 175.2 million pounds were sent by facilities in one
state to locations in another.
Transfers Off-site for Further Waste
Management
States reported larger amounts of transfers off-site for
further waste management into other states than were
transferred within the state. Nationwide, transfers
from one state to another totaled 1.94 billion pounds,
while transfers within states totaled 1.47 billion
pounds, as shown in Table 2-7. These transfers off-
site for further waste management include transfers to
recycling, energy recovery, and treatment.
South Carolina ranked first for amounts transferred
out of state for further waste management with 317.3
million pounds, principally to recycling (307.5
million pounds). The largest transfers for further
waste management within a state were reported in
Texas, with 213.6 million pounds. The largest transfer
types within Texas were transfers to energy recovery
(76.5 million pounds) and transfers to recycling (60.3
million pounds). Tennessee was the largest recipient
state, with 264.3 million pounds transferred into the
state for further waste management. This included
259.4 million pounds transferred into Tennessee for
recycling.
Accounting for the transfer of TRI chemicals among
states, Texas had the largest total transfers to
destinations within its borders (whether originating
from facilities in Texas or transferred into Texas from
facilities in other states and territories). Transfers
within and into Texas totaled 311.1 million pounds,
Tennessee ranked second with 299.2 million pounds,
and Pennsylvania ranked third with 285.7 million
pounds.

Management of TRI Chemicals in
Waste by State
Texas ranked first among states and territories for
total production-related waste managed, with 4.17
billion pounds (see Table 2-8). Louisiana ranked
second with 2.39 billion pounds. A revision by one
facility after preparation of data for this report would
change Louisiana's total to 2.21 billion pounds, but
would not affect the state rankings. Two other states
had totals exceeding 1 billion pounds: Illinois,
ranking third with 1.37 billion pounds, and South
Carolina, ranking fourth with 1.02 billion pounds.
Map 2-2 presents the geographic distribution of
production-related waste managed in 1997.
Texas facilities reported the largest quantities in all
but one waste management category. The largest
quantities reported in Texas were managed on-site:
1.52 billion pounds of treatment, 1.09 billion pounds
of recycling, and 984.9 million pounds of energy
recovery. The state also ranked first in two off-site
categories: treatment (86.2 million pounds) and
energy recovery (82.8 million pounds) and first for
quantity released on- and off-site (252.1 million
pounds). Production-related waste reported in Texas
ranged from 10.2% of the national total for quantity
released on- and off-site to 25.9% of on-site energy
recovery (33.6% when facility revisions previously
described are taken into account).
The exception to Texas' dominance of waste
management reporting occurred in off-site recycling,
which South Carolina led with 302.5 million pounds
(12.7% of the total in that category).
Louisiana ranked second in three waste management
categories—on-site recycling, on-site treatment, and
quantity released on- and off-site—and ranked third
for on-site energy recovery. The largest quantities of
production-related waste managed in Louisiana were
858.4 million pounds treated on-site, 746.9 million
pounds recycled on-site, and 528.1 million pounds
burned for energy recovery on-site. The facility
revision previously mentioned would change on-site

in this category.
Although Illinois ranked third for total production-
related waste managed, the state appeared in the top
three for only one method of waste management,

1997 TRI Data by Chemical
This section presents chemical-specific TRI data for
1997, Including the chemicals with the largest
releases. It also reviews data for three groups of TRI
chemicals of particular concern: metals, chemicals
identified as known or suspected OSHA carcinogens,
and chemicals that may adversely affect children's
health. Also included is information about the uses,
toxicity, and environmental fate of the TRI chemicals
with the largest reported releases. At the end of this
chapter, Table 2-20 presents on- and off-site releases
and waste management data for all TRI chemicals for
which 1997 reports were received.
Top 20 Chemicals for On- and Off-site
Releases
Table 2-9 lists the 20 TRI chemicals with the largest
total releases in 1997. With 1.93 billion pounds in
releases, these chemicals represented three-quarters
(75.0%) of all on- and off-site releases reported to
TRI in 1997.
Zinc compounds led all TRI chemicals with releases
totaling 306.0 million pounds. Off-site releases
(transfers to disposal) contributed nearly 60% (182.4
million pounds) of this total. As explained above, off-
site releases of metals and their compounds include
transfers to solidification/stabilization and to
wastewater treatment including POTWs.
Methanol ranked second for total releases with 221.1
million pounds. In contrast to zinc compounds, 99.6%
of methanol releases occurred on-site, especially as
air emissions. Methanol led all TRI chemicals for air
releases with 194.4 million pounds (25.3 million
pounds fugitive emissions and 169.1 million pounds
stack emissions).
Ammonia ranked third overall with total releases of
just under 200.0 million pounds. Air emissions of
ammonia totaled 156.1 million pounds (35.6 million
pounds fugitive and 120.6 million pounds stack).
Ammonia ranked second for releases to air.
Altogether, air emissions represented more than three-
quarters of total on- and off-site releases for 12 of the
top 20 chemicals. (In addition to methanol and
ammonia, these were toluene, xylene, n-hexane,
chlorine, hydrochloric acid, methyl ethyl ketone,
carbon disulfide, dichloromethane, styrene, and glycol
ethers.)

Note: On-sitc Releases from Section 5 of Form R. Off-site Releases are from Section 6 (transfers off-site to disposal) of Form R,
Off-site Releases include metals and metal compounds transferred off-site for solidification/stabilization and for wastewater treatment, including to POTWs.
More nitrate compounds (added to TRI reporting in
1995) were discharged to surface waters than any
other chemical, with 148.8 million pounds. TRI
facilities also reported surface water discharges of
43.5 million pounds of phosphoric acid, the second-
largest amount of such discharges. These two
chemicals accounted for 88.1% of all surface water
discharges reported to TRI in 1997.
Nitrate compounds and ammonia ranked first and
second, respectively, for underground injection.
Injection in Class I wells totaled 40.6 million pounds
of nitrate compounds and 31.0 million pounds of
ammonia. As noted earlier, relatively little injection
of TRI chemicals was reported to other classes of
underground wells; ammonia ranked first for injection
in Class II-V wells with 198,000 pounds.
Zinc compounds led all TRI chemicals for total on-
site land releases, with 117.3 million pounds,
followed by manganese compounds, with 50.2
million pounds. Zinc compounds ranked first in three
of the five types of on-site land releases summarized
in Table 2-9, with 9.8 million pounds released to
RCRA subtitle C landfills, 27.8 million pounds to
other landfills, and 61.7 million pounds to other on-
site land disposal. Ammonia was released to on-site
land treatment in larger amounts, totaling 2.1 million

overall, chromium compounds had the largest on-site
releases to surface impoundments, with 25.4 million
pounds.
Ltee, Toxicity, and Environmental Fate
Information
TRI chemicals may cause a variety of adverse health
and environmental effects. Information on use,
toxicity, and environmental fate is provided here for
the top five chemicals with the largest releases in
1997 (see Table 2-9).
Zinc Compounds
Uses. Zinc is used as a coating on iron and steel and
in making brass metal alloys. Zinc compounds are
widely used in industry, to make paint, rubber, dye,
wood preservatives, and ointments.
Toxicity. Zinc compounds are listed on TRI primarily
because of concerns for the toxicity of the parent
metal, zinc. EPA has categorized zinc as a Group D
carcinogen, meaning that sufficient evidence is not
available to classify zinc as to its cancer-causing
potential. EPA has established an oral reference dose
(RfD) of 0.3 mg/kg/day for soluble zinc salts. Zinc
has been shown to damage the developing fetus at
doses as low as 100 mg/kg/day in animal studies.
2-29
-------
^Chapter 2 - National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release Inventory
Environmental Fate. Many zinc salts are highly
soluble in water. Zinc and its salts are highly toxic in
aquatic organisms. Zinc is likely to persist in water.
Its concentration in aquatic tissue is expected to be
significantly higher than its concentration in
surrounding water.
Methanol
Uses. Methanol is used as a solvent, as a raw material
in the synthesis of organic chemicals, as a fuel, as a
de-icing agent, and to denature ethanol.
Toxicity. Methanol is readily absorbed from the
gastrointestinal tract and the respiratory tract, and is
toxic to humans in moderate to high doses. In the
body, methanol is converted into formaldehyde and
formic acid. Observed toxic effects at high dose levels
include central nervous system damage and blindness.
Inhalation of methanol at relatively high doses affects
the liver and blood in animals.
Methanol is expected to have low toxicity to aquatic
organisms and is not likely to persist in water or to
bioaccumulate in aquatic life.
Environmental Fate. Methanol reacts in air to
produce formaldehyde, which contributes to
formation of air pollutants. In the atmosphere, it can
react with other chemicals or be washed out by rain.
Methanol is readily degraded by microorganisms in
soils and surface waters.
Ammonia
Uses. Ammonia is used in the manufacture of
nitrogen compounds, including chemicals used as
fertilizers or in making nylon and plastics. It is also
used in refrigeration, paper and pulp production,
explosives, cleaners, and metal-treating operations.
Toxieity. Anhydrous ammonia is a corrosive and
severely irritating gas with a pungent odor; it is
irritating to the skin, eyes, nose, throat, and upper
respiratory system.
Aqueous ammonia is moderately toxic to aquatic
organisms. Because it is a source of nitrogen, an
essential element for aquatic plant growth, ammonia
can stimulate primary production of plants and can
produce changes in the dominant species of plants,
leading to cultural eutrophication and ultimately to
deterioration of water quality.
Environmental Fate. Ammonia combines with
sulfate ions in the atmosphere and is washed out by
rainfall, resulting in rapid return of ammonia to the
soil and surface waters. Ammonia is a central
compound in the environmental cycling of nitrogen.
Ammonia in lakes, rivers, and streams is converted to
nitrate.
Nitrate Compounds
Uses. Many compounds are covered by the nitrate
compounds category, and they have many uses. The
most significant use is as fertilizers, either straight or
blended to make complex fertilizers. Some
compounds are also used as oxidizing agents and as
constituents in some explosives and pyrotechnics.
Nitrate compounds are also used as refining agents for
removing air bubbles from melts in the glass and
enamel industry and in metallurgy as heat-transfer
baths for quench hardening and tempering of steel,
light alloys, and copper alloys.
Toxicity. Nitrate compounds that are soluble in water
release nitrate ion, which can cause both human
health and environmental effects. Human infants
exposed to aqueous solutions of nitrate ion can
develop a condition in which the blood's ability to
carry oxygen is reduced. This reduced supply of
oxygen can lead to damaged organs and death.
Because it is a source of nitrogen, an essential
element for aquatic plant growth, nitrate ion may
contribute to eutrophication of standing or slow-
moving surface water, particularly in nitrogen-limited
waters, such as the Chesapeake Bay.
2-30
-------
Chapter 2 - National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release fnvento,
Environmental Fate. Nitrate-nitrogen is Ihe form of
nitrogen most available to plants. In the environment,
nitrate ion is taken up by plants and becomes part of
the natural nitrogen cycle. Excess nitrate can
stimulate primary production of plants and can
produce changes in the dominant species of plants,
leading to cultural eutrophication and ultimately to
deterioration of water quality.
Manganese Compounds
Uses. Manganese metal is used primarily in the
production of steel such as carbon steel, stainless
steel, high-temperature steel, and tool steel where it
increases hardness, stiffness, and strength. There are a
variety of uses for manganese compounds including
the production of dry-cell batteries, matches,
fireworks, ceramics, fungicides, and fertilizers.
Additional uses include as a catalyst in the
chlorination of certain organic compounds, a
supplement for animal feed, and in the treatment of
wastewater.
Toxkity. Manganese is a widespread element that is
essential for normal body functioning in all animal
species. Because manganese is an essential nutrient,
there are human disease states associated with either
deficiencies or excess intakes of manganese. The
Food and Nutrition Board of the National Research
Council (NRC, 1989) determined an "estimated safe
and adequate daily dietary intake" (ESADDI) of
manganese to be 2-5 mg/day for adults. Human diets
with too little manganese can lead to slowed blood
clotting times, dermatitis, changes in hair color,
lowered cholesterol levels, and other alterations in
metabolism.
Too much manganese can cause serious illness such
as effects on the central nervous system. Workers in
certain industries who have been exposed to airborne
dust containing manganese for many months or years
may have mental or emotional disturbances and their
body movements may become slow and clumsy.
Some of these symptoms may be treated but some
may be caused by permanent brain injury. EPA's
inhalation reference concentration is 0.00005
milligrams per cubic meter.
It is not certain that eating or drinking too much
manganese can cause these same serious symptoms
although some studies have indicated that excess
dietary intake may be of concern. EPA's oral
reference dose is 0.14 mg/kg-day, which is estimated
to be an intake for the general population that is not
associated with adverse health effects; this is not
meant to imply that intakes above the reference dose
are necessarily associated with toxicity.
Manganese is also toxic to aquatic organisms with
aquatic acute toxicity values as low as 3.2 to 5.7 parts
per million (ppm) for invertebrates and as low as 12
ppm for fish. Concentrations as low as 0.2 to 0.3 ppm
are toxic to some marine algae.
Environmental Fate. Manganese compounds can be
released to the air by industrial emissions and by the
erosion of soils containing manganese. These
compounds may be present as small dust-like
particles that settle out on land and water bodies with
the larger particles tending to settle out faster than
smaller ones. Manganese compounds from industrial
sources can enter the soil, surface water, groundwater,
and sewage waters. The chemical state of the
manganese, its concentration, and the type of soil or
water conditions present, determines the availability
of manganese in a particular environment.
Top 20 Chemicals for Quantities
Managed in Waste
Table 2-10 lists the 20 TRI chemicals with the largest
total production-related waste managed. They
accounted for 17.94 billion pounds of production-
related waste, nearly three-quarters (72.6%) of the
total reported production-related waste managed in
1997. However, revisions by two facilities after data
2-31
-------
Chapter 2 — National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release Inventory
were "frozen" for this report would change total
production-related waste managed to 17.07 billion
pounds for the top 20 chemicals.
Facilities reported managing 2.42 billion pounds of
methanol in production-related waste, the chemical
with the largest total. Methanol was most likely to be
managed by on-site treatment (960.2 million pounds)
or by on-site recycling (652.6 million pounds). These
two categories represented two thirds (66.6%) of the
methanol managed in production-related waste.
Methanol ranked first for on-site treatment and
second for on-site recycling. Methanol also had the
largest reported quantities of off-site energy recovery
(92,1 million pounds) and off-site treatment (131.7
million pounds) and ranked second for quantity
released (226.5 million pounds).
Ethylene ranked second for total production-related
waste managed with 1.81 billion pounds. However,
the two facilities' revisions previously noted would
change this quantity to 1.21 billion pounds, placing
ethylene fourth among all TRI chemicals for total
production-related waste managed. TRI facilities
reported managing 1.80 billion pounds of toluene and
1.44 billion pounds of copper in production-related
waste in 1997. These chemicals would rank second
and third, respectively, when the revisions affecting
ethylene are taken into account. One facility's
revision would also change production-related waste
reported for propylene from 1.10 billion pounds in
1997 to 825.9 million pounds, and propylene would
rank eighth rather than fifthuNearly two-thirds of the
toluene managed (1.12 billion pounds or 62.1% of the
total for this chemical) was recycled on-site. Toluene
ranked first among TRI chemicals for on-site
recycling. Copper was the chemical with the largest
quantity of off-site recycling, with 783.5 million
pounds. Taking into account the facility revisions,
ethylene and propylene were combusted for energy
recovery in larger quantities (548.8 million pounds
and 446.4 million pounds, respectively) than any
other TRI chemical.
Ranking ninth overall, zinc compounds ranked first
for quantity released on- and off-site with 277.3
million pounds.
Metals and Metal Compounds
Both metals and their compounds are listed on TRI.
Release and waste management data reported in 1997
for these chemicals appear in Tables 2-11 through 2-
13. Under EPCRA section 313, facilities that
manufacture, process, or otherwise use metal
compounds report only the metal portion of the metal
compound. For example, a facility that releases a
copper compound, such as copper sulfate, would
report as a release only the weight of the copper, not
the weight of the entire copper compound. This is
done to capture information on the targeted portion of
each member of the category, so that information on
the listed portion of the compound is collected in TRI,
Metals (including the metal portion of metal
compounds) differ from other TRI chemicals because
they do not degrade and are not destroyed. Other TRI-
listed chemicals can be destroyed by sunlight, heat,
microorganisms, or other chemicals. Although metals
cannot be destroyed, they may be converted to a less
toxic form. For example, many facilities convert
hexavalent chromium (a known carcinogen) to the
less toxic trivalent form before releasing or
transferring it to off-site locations. Other metal waste
may be treated before disposal so that the metal will
be less likely to be transported through soils.
Although such treatment may limit the availability of
the metal to the environment, it does not destroy the
metal.

Chapter 2 — National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release Invento,
On- and Off-site Releases of Metals and Metal
Compounds
On- and off-site releases of TRJ metals and metal
compounds in 1997 totaled 732.8 million pounds, as
shown in Table 2-11. TRI facilities reported on- and
off-site releases of 342.1 million pounds of zinc and
its compounds, 46.7% of the total for metals.
Manganese and its compounds ranked second with
143.6 million pounds (19.6%). (As seen in Table 2-9,
above, zinc compounds alone ranked first among all
TRJ chemicals for total releases and manganese
compounds alone ranked fifth.)
Off-site releases of 391.5 million pounds represented
53.4% of total releases of metals and metal
compounds. (As explained above, transfers of metals
to disposal include transfers to solidification/
stabilization and to wastewater treatment at private or
public facilities.) Off-site releases of 207.4 million
pounds of zinc and its compounds far outweighed
those of other metals. The largest type of on-site
release of metals was "other disposal", a category of
on-site land releases. Other disposal totaled 114.0.
million pounds or 15.6% of all on- and off-site
releases. Again, the largest component wais zinc and
its compounds, with 68.5 million pounds. Non-RCRA
subtitle C landfills and surface impoundments each
received approximately 11% of total releases of
metals, with 79.8 million pounds and 82.4 million
pounds, respectively. Metals with the largest amounts
in these categories were manganese and its
compounds with 35.3 million pounds released to
other landfills and chromium and its compounds with
25.4 million pounds released to surface
impoundments. Altogether, on-site land releases of
metals amounted to 296.5 million pounds, 40.5% of
the total.
Table 2-12 more closely examines off-site releases of
metals. Again, zinc and its compounds had the largest
amount with 207.4 million pounds (53.0% of the
total). By far the largest amount of metals and their
compounds—207.2 million pounds—was sent to off-
site landfills and disposal surface impoundments.
Solidification/stabilization services received another
144.0 million pounds. These amounts represented
52.9% and 36.8%, respectively, of all off-site releases
of metals and metal compounds. Zinc and its
compounds had the largest amounts with 97.3 million
pounds to landfills/surface impoundments and 99.9
million pounds to solidification/stabilization.

Quantities of Metals and Metal Compounds
Managed in Waste
TRI facilities reported managing a total of 4.72
billion pounds of metals and metal compounds in
waste in 1997, as shown in Table 2-13. Copper and
its compounds ranked first with 2.03 billion pounds,
followed by lead and its compounds (958.8 million
pounds) and zinc and its compounds (853.8 million
pounds). Together, these chemicals represented
81.3% of all production-related waste of metals and
metal compounds.
Most metals and metal compounds in waste were
recycled. With on-site recycling of 1.82 billion
pounds and off-site recycling of 2.00 billion pounds,
this waste management option accounted for 81.1%
of total production-related waste management of
metals and metal compounds. More than 90% of both
copper and lead and their compounds was recycled. In
contrast, only about half (52.8%) of the zinc and its
compounds in production-related waste was managed
by recycling.
For all metals and metal compounds, quantities
released on- and off-site totaled 651.7 million pounds,
the next largest waste management option for these
substances after on- and off-site recycling. More than
one third (36.6%) of the zinc and its compounds was
reported as quantity released on- and off-site.

Chapter 2 — National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release Invents,
OSHA Carcinogens
Some chemicals are listed in TRI because they are
either known human carcinogens or suspect
carcinogens (see Box 2-8). Known human
carcinogens are those that have been shown to cause
cancer in humans. Suspect carcinogens are those
chemicals that have been shown to cause cancer in
animals. Table 2-14 shows on- and off-site releases
of these chemicals.
Clarification of the Basis for Carcinogen
Listings on the EPCRA Section 313 List of
Toxic Chemicals
Under section 313, a chemical does not have to be
counted towards threshold determinations and
release and other waste management calculations if
it is present in a mixture below a certain
concentration. This is known as the section 313 "de
minimis" concentration in mixture. When tide section
313 rule was developed, EPA adopted the de
minimis percentages from the Occupational Safety
and Health Administration's (OSHA) Hazard
Communication Standards (29 CFR 1910.1900),
because much of the information that industry would
have relating to chemicals in mixtures would most
likely be from the material safety data sheet (MSDS)
on that mixture. The OSHA de minimis limitation is
0.1% if the chemical is a known or suspect
carcinogen by virtue of appearing in one of three
sources:
1. National Toxicology Program (NTP), "Annual
Report on Carcinogens" (Latest Edition);
2. International Agency for Research on Cancer
(IARC) "Monographs" (Latest Editions); or
3. 29 CFR 1910, Subpart Z, Toxic and Hazardous
Substances, Occupational Safety and Hfealth
Administration.
The de minimis limitation is 1.0% for chemicals that
do not meet the above OSHA carcinogen criteria.
The carcinogen designation in the list of chemicals
relates to any chemical that the Agency determined
met the above OSHA criteria for the 0.1% de minimis
limitation. Box 2-8 shows the specific bases for
which the individual chemical was designated as a
known or suspect carcinogen. This list was updated
for the 1997 TRI Public Data Release, based on a
review of the NTP, IARC, and OSHA sources.
Certain metal compound categories have two de
minimis limitations. For example, hexavalent
chromium compounds and inorganic arsenic
compounds meet the OSHA carcinogen criteria, while
trivalent chromium compounds and organic arsenic do
not meet the OSHA criteria. These groups are
included in Table 2-14, because not all compounds
meet the criteria.
On- and Off-site Releases of OSHA
Carcinogens
As shown in Table 2-14, TRI facilities reported
releases of 247.9 million pounds of OSHA
carcinogens, about one-tenth (9.6%) of all TRI on-
and off-site releases in 1997. Releases were reported
for 115 OSHA carcinogens out of 167 such chemicals
on the TRI list. Air emissions of 173.5 million pounds
amounted to 70.0% of the total. Dichloromethane and
styrene were released in the largest amounts, 48.4
million pounds and 46.5 million pounds, respectively,
and air emissions accounted for more than 90% of
releases of both chemicals. Releases of these two
chemicals represented 38.3% of all OSHA carcinogen
releases.

Nolc; On-sile Releases from Section 5 of Form R. Off-site Releases are from Section 6 (transfers off-site to disposal) of Form R.
Off-site Releases include metals and metal compounds transferred off-site for solidification/stabilization and for wastewater treatment, including to POTWs.
Quantities of OSHA Carcinogens Managed in
Waste
TRI facilities managed 3.67 billion pounds of OSHA
carcinogens in waste in 1997, as shown in Table 2-15.
This total represented 14.8% of production-related
waste for all TRI chemicals. Three-quarters (73.6%) of
the OSHA carcinogens in waste were treated on-site
(1.38 billion pounds) or recycled on-site (1.32 billion
pounds).
Creosote ranked first among OSHA carcinogens for
production-related waste managed with 937.3 million
pounds. Most (92.3%) of the creosote was treated on-
site—865.4 million pounds. No other OSHA
carcinogen exceeded 100 million pounds of on-site
treatment.
Vinyl chloride and lead ranked second and third,
respectively, among OSHA carcinogens for total
production-related waste managed in 1997. The 455.0
million pounds of vinyl chloride in waste included
398.4 million pounds managed by on-site recycling.
Production-related waste for lead totaled 279.8 million
pounds, and that quantity included 223.5 million
pounds recycled on-site. These were the largest
amounts of on-site recycling among OSHA
carcinogens.
Chemicals Affecting Children's Health
Children are especially vulnerable to toxic chemicals
for a number of reasons, including their body weight
relative to food and air intake, their behavior (play)
patterns that result in the potential for higher outdoor
exposures, their developing systems, and their relative
inability to identify and protect themselves from
exposures that are not obvious threats. For those
reasons, parents may wish to use TRI information to
identify chemicals that may be of potential concern for
their children's development.

Note: On-site Releases from Section 5 of Form R, Off-site Releases are from Section 6 (transfers off-site to disposal) of Form R.
Off-site Releases include metals and metal compounds transferred off-site for solidification/stabilization and for wastewater treatment, including to POTWs.
Beginning with the 1995 reporting year, EPA added
286 toxic chemicals to the TRI list. A full one-third of
these chemicals were added because of the
developmental effects they can cause. These chemicals
may cause effects such as structural abnormalities,
reduced birth weight, non-viable births (as shown in
animal studies) as well as effects upon a growing child.
In 1997, on- and off-site releases of these chemicals
totaled 11.5 billion pounds. Table 2-16 details the
releases of the top 10 of these chemicals. With 6.5
million pounds, the solvent N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone
(NMP) ranked first among developmental toxins for
total on- and off--site releases. Air emissions, reported
by facilities in many industry sectors, constituted the
majority of NMP releases, totaling 3.1 million pounds.
Two facilities in the chemical manufacturing industry
(SIC code 28) reported most of the underground
injection of NMP—one reporting 1.8 million pounds
and the other 749,000 pounds (both to Class I wells).
NMP is used as a solvent, including applications in
extraction, separation, and recovery of aromatics.'
Nitrate Compounds and Children's Health
Of the chemicals added in the 1995 reporting year,
nitrate compounds were released in the greatest
amounts in the 1997 reporting year. Since modern
water treatment plants are required to monitor and
control nitrate levels in drinking water, exposure to
these compounds is limited. In addition to causing
adverse environmental impacts, nitrates have been
linked to infantile methemoglobinemia, or "blue-baby"
syndrome. This condition, which occurs in human
infants exposed to aqueous solutions of nitrate ion and
which can cause damage to developing organs and
death, is caused by the reduced capacity of the blood to
carry oxygen. Infants 0-3 months of age are the most
sensitive population to nitrate-induced
methemoglobinemia. This is primarily due to their
higher stomach pH which favors the growth of nitrate-
reducing bacteria, the immaturity of their metabolic
enzyme systems, and reduced capacity of their
erythrocytes to reduce methemoglobinemia to
hemoglobin. Information concerning this chemical is
important to a family's right-to-know.

Chapter 2 - National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release Invento,
On- and off-site releases of nitrate compounds
reported to TRI in 1997 totaled 197.4 million pounds.
This chemical ranked fourth among all TRI chemicals
for total releases (see Table 2-9). TRI facilities
managed 427.2 million pounds of nitrate compounds
in production-related waste; nitrate compounds
ranked 18th for total production-related waste (see
Table 2-10).
Mercury and Children's Health
Exposure to high levels of mercury has been
associated with serious neurological and
developmental effects in humans. The fetal nervous
system has been found to be more sensitive to
mercury toxicity than that of adults. Women of child-
bearing age are therefore at greatest risk. Fish
consumption dominates the pathway for human and
wildlife exposure to mercury. While most United
States consumers need not be concerned about their
exposure to mercury, some exposures may be of
concern. Those who regularly and frequently consume
large amounts offish — either marine species that
typically have much higher levels of mercury than
other seafood, or freshwater fish that have been
affected by mercury pollution - are more highly
exposed. In its Mercury Study Report to Congress,
EPA concluded that between 1% and 3% of women
of child-bearing age eat sufficient amounts offish to
be at risk from mercury exposure.
In 1997, on- and off-site releases of mercury and its
compounds totaled 73,000 pounds; production-related
waste totaled 548,000 pounds (see Tables 2-11 and 2-
13). Reporting of mercury and mercury compounds is
expected to increase in the 1998 reporting year, as
electric utilities and other industry sectors are added
to TRI.
Ozone and Children's Health
EPA has also noted that there are special concerns
relating to children's exposure to ozone. Children are
most at risk from exposure to ozone because: children
breathe more air per pound of body weight than
adults; children are more susceptible than adults to
environmental threats because of their developing
respiratory systems; and children are outside most
during the summer, when ozone levels are highest.
Also, because asthma in children is a growing
concern, additional factors must be taken into account
in understanding ozone exposure of asthmatic
children. Concern has grown recently because
children are 25% of the population and comprise 40%
of the asthma cases; the asthma death rate is three
times as great as it was 20 years ago; African-
Americans die from asthma at a rate six times that of
Caucasians; and ozone aggravates asthma, increasing
use of medication, medical treatment, and visits to
emergency clinics.
Ozone releases reported to TRI totaled 776,000
pounds in 1997, all emitted to air. TRI facilities
reported production-related waste for this chemical of
3.6 million pounds, including 2.8 million pounds of
on-site treatment. (TRI release and waste management
data for all chemicals appear in Table 2-20 at the end
of this chapter.) In addition to the ozone released
directly to the environment, the majority of ozone is
formed in the atmosphere as a reaction between
nitrogen oxides (NOJ and volatile organic
compounds or VOCs [e.g., methyl isobutyl ketone
(MIBK) and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK)] in the
presence of sunlight. VOCs result from combustion;
evaporation of hydrocarbons, such as gasoline; and
emissions from processes employing hydrocarbons,
from major sources such as chemical plants to small
sources such as dry cleaners and charcoal lighter
fluids. NOj results primarily from combustion and is
emitted by utilities, industrial boilers, and
automobiles.
Prevention of TRI Chemicals in
Waste
As noted earlier in this chapter, the Pollution
Prevention Act of 1990 (PPA) requires facilities to
report the quantities of TRI chemicals they manage in
waste, both on- and off-site. The PPA also requires
facilities to provide information about the efforts they
have made to reduce or eliminate those quantities.
2-51
-------
Chapter 2- National Overview of 1997 Toxics Release Inventory
With the 1991 reporting year, facilities began
reporting to TRI information about any source
reduction activities they implemented during the year,
Source Reduction
Source reduction activities are undertaken to reduce
the amount of a toxic chemical which enters a
wastestream or is otherwise released to the
environment. By reducing the generation of toxic
chemicals in waste, source reduction activities reduce
the need to recycle, treat, or dispose of toxic
chemicals. Box 2-9 explains source reduction as
defined by the PPA.
A reported source reduction activity could have been
implemented at any time during the reporting year.
This is important to consider when analyzing the
impact that source reduction activities may have had
on the total quantity of waste that a facility managed
during the year. Undertaking a source reduction
activity late in the reporting year would have a smaller
impact on the amount of waste that was managed
during the year than implementing the same activity
earlier in the year.
Table 2-17 summarizes source reduction activity
reporting by category for 1997. The most frequently
reported categories of source reduction activities were
good operating practices (9.4% of all forms), process
modifications (6.5%), and spill and leak prevention
(4.5%). These categories were also the most
frequently reported in previous years. More than
4,100 facilities reported at least one source reduction
activity, 22.1% of all reporting facilities. They
submitted 12,872 forms that indicated at least one
source reduction activity, 21.1% of all Form Rs
submitted in 1997. Thus, for every Form R indicating
source reduction activity in 1997, four did not.
Box 2-9. What fs Source Reduction
What Is Source Reduction?
Through source reduction, risks to people and the environment can
be reduced, financial and natural resources can be saved that would
otherwise have to be expended on environmental clean-up or
pollution control, and industrial processes can become more
efficient. Source reduction is defined in the Pollution Prevention
Act of 1990 as any practice that:
• reduces the amount of any hazardous substance, pollutant, or
contaminant entering any wastestream or otherwise released
into the environment (including fugitive emissions); and
• reduces the hazards to public health and the environment
associated with the release of such substances, pollutants, or
contaminants.
Source reduction practices can include modifications in equipment,
process, procedure, or technology, reformulation or redesign of
products, substitution of raw materials, and improvements in
maintenance and inventory controls. Under this definition, waste
management activities, including recycling, treatment, and disposal,
are not considered forms of source reduction.
Facility Projections of TRI Chemicals
in Waste
National Overview
In 1997, facilities reported managing 24.73 billion
pounds of TRI chemicals in production-related waste,
as summarized in Table 2-3 earlier in this chapter.
These facilities projected a 1.2% decrease, to 24.43
billion pounds, by reporting year 1999 (see Table 2-
18). Late revisions by two facilities would change the
1997 total for production-related waste managed to
23.85 billion pounds, as noted earlier in this chapter.
These revisions would also change the total projected
for 1999 to 23.47 billion pounds, a projected decrease
of 1.6%.
Reductions of more than 100 million pounds each
were expected in on-site recycling (from 7.99 billion
pounds to 7.83 billion pounds), quantity released on-
and off-site (from 2.47 billion pounds to 2.34 billion
pounds), and on-site treatment (from 7.01 billion
pounds to 6.90 billion pounds). In percentage terms,

*One facility, TPI Petroleum in Ardmore, Oklahoma, reported on-site energy recovery forethylene of 422,000,000 pounds in 1997 and projected 443,100,000 pounds for
1998 and 465,255,000 pounds for 1999. This facility also reported on-site energy recovery for propylene of 272,000,000 pounds in 1997 and projected 285,600,000 pounds
for 1998 and 299,880,000 pounds for 1999. The facility has since revised these quantities to zero. Another facility, Shell Chemical Co. in Oeismar, LA, reported on-site
energy recovery for ethylene of 198,830,000 pounds in 1997 anil projected 213,213,000 pounds for both 1998 and 1999, The facility has since revised all three quantities
to 13,000,000 pounds. These revisions change on-site energy recovery to 2,930,962,208 pounds in 1997,2,933,105,153 pounds projected for 1998, and 2,999,926,628
projected for 1999. Total production-related waste managed changes to 23,850,566,745 pounds in 1997,23,403,721,510 pounds projected for 1998, and 23,468,052,562
pounds projected for 1999.

Chapter 2- Natfona/ Overview of 1997 Toxics Release Inventory
the largest projected decreases were 6.8% in off-site
energy recovery and 6.5% in off-site treatment,
although these represented relatively small absolute
reductions.
At the same time, on-site energy recovery was
expected to increase from 3.81 billion pounds to 3.97
billion pounds, a projected 4.2% increase. The facility
revisions previously described would change
projected on-site energy recovery totals to 2,93 billion
in 1997 and a projected 3.00 billion in 1999, for a
projected increase of 2.4%. For off-site recycling, an
increase of 0.4%, from 2.39 billion pounds to 2.40
billion pounds, was projected.
These projections represent little change in how
facilities expected to manage TRI chemicals in waste.
From 1997 to 1999, quantities released—the least
desirable waste management option—would decrease
from 10.3% to 10.0% of total production-related
waste managed as projected in facilities' submissions
to TRI. Taking into account the facility revisions
noted throughout this chapter, on-site energy recovery
would rise from 12.3% to 12.8%.
These are the largest projected changes in the
distribution of waste management methods. Although
they constitute a slight positive shift from releases
toward a more preferred option, these changes
represent little or no progress in improving the
management of TRI chemicals in waste,
Projected Waste Management Data by State
Texas, the state with the largest production-related
waste managed in 1997, was also the state projecting
the largest absolute reduction in production-related
waste over the next two years. As shown in Table 2-
19, production-related waste in Texas was expected to
decrease from 4.17 billion pounds in 1997 to 3.93
billion pounds in 1999. This amounted to a projected
5.8% decrease for 1997 to 1999, compared to a 3.0%
increase over the last year (1996 to 1997). North
Carolina facilities projected the second-largest
reduction, from 803.9 million pounds in 1997 to
668.7 million pounds in 1999. This amounted to a
16.8% decrease expected over the next two years,
compared to an 11.8% increase from 1996 to 1997.
No other state or territory projected a decrease of
more than 100 million pounds from 1997 to 1999.
Pennsylvania ranked first for projected increase in
production-related waste, from 917.9 million pounds
in 1997 to 1.01 billion pounds in 1999, the only
projected increase exceeding 100 million pounds.
Pennsylvania's projected 10.4% increase from 1997
to 1999 compares to an 8.4% increase for 1996 to
1997.
Chemical-specific Release and
Waste Management Data
Table 2-20 presents on- and off-site releases and
waste management data for all reported TRI
chemicals for 1997. Pesticides are denoted by an
asterisk (*) next to the chemical name. These are
chemicals that are currently active ingredients in
EPA's Pesticide Product Information System (all
pesticide products imported and/or manufactured in
the U.S.) and/or Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) Active Ingredients,
including Special Review, Canceled/Denied or
Suspended, and Restricted Use Pesticides.

Chapter 3
Year-to-Year Comparison of Toxics
Release Inventory Data
This chapter compares TRI data for on- and off-site
releases, on-site waste management, and transfers off-
site for further waste management for two time
periods: The first period reviews data for the last three
reporting years (1995,1996, and 1997), and the
second period compares daja for the TRI baseline
reporting year and recent years (1988 and 1995-
1997). Because not all types pf data were collected in
1988, this chapter looks at waste management data for
the first year that TRI collected such data (1991) and
for recent years (1995-1997).
The discussion of "core" chemical lists, in the
Introduction below, is important for accurate
interpretation of these year-to-year comparisons
because of the important changes hi TRI over time.
Introduction
Because TRI data are collected annually, they can be
used to measure the nation's, progress in reducing
toxic chemical releases arid other waste management
activities by manufacturing facilities and federal
facilities. This chapter measures such progress on a
national, state, and chemiea^speeiflc basis. Industry-
specific analyses, of year-to-year changes in TRI
reporting appear in Chapter 4.
Tables in this chapter compare data for 1995 to 1997
to highlight recent changes in reporting. These tables
give a three-year view of TRI reporting since the
addition of nearly 300 substances hi reporting year
1995.
Other tables compare data for 1995 to 1997 with the
1988 baseline data to measure progress since the
beginning of TRI. Although 1987 was the first year
for TRJ reporting, 1988 has been chosen as the
baseline year for comparisons because of concerns
about the data quality of industry's submissions in the
first year.
For waste management activities, progress can be
measured from 1991, when such data were first
collected by TRI. This section analyzes the actual
quantities for previous and current years (1991 and
1995-1997), followed by a comparison of facilities'
actual and projected data (1991,1995-1997 with
projections for 1998 and 1999).
Certain TRI reporting requirements have changed
since the inception of the program—not only the
addition of waste management data in 1991, but also
the chemical expansion that nearly doubled the TRI
chemical list beginning in the 1995 reporting year. It
is important to understand these and other changes
and consider their implications when comparing TRI
data across years.
"Core" Chemicals for
Year-to-Year Comparisons
EPA has the authority both to add chemicals to the
TRI reporting list if they meet the statutory toxicity
criteria. Conversely, EPA may delete chemicals if
they do not meet the toxicity criteria. Since 1987,
EPA has deleted a number of chemicals from the list,
added others, and modified the reporting requirements
for others. The largest expansion was the addition of
286 chemicals and chemical categories for the 1995
reporting year.

fi
Chapters— Year-to-Year Comparison of Toxics Release Inventory Data
Year-to-year comparisons must be based on a
consistent set of chemicals to assure that any changes
in releases or other waste management do not simply
reflect the addition, deletion, or change in definition
of reportable chemicals from one year to another.
Data in this chapter represent facility reporting only
for the "core" chemicals for the years being
compared. The set of "core" chemicals differs
depending on the base year of comparison.
Three-year Comparisons
Tables comparing data for 1995 through 1997 include
all chemicals currently reportable to TRI; there have
been no additions or modifications to reporting
requirements during this period. Thus, these tables
include the nearly 300 chemicals added to TRI
beginning with reporting year 1995 in addition to the
roughly 300 chemicals mat were on the list prior to
1995. Because no chemicals have been added or
definitions changed since 1995, the 1997 totals in this
chapter for on- and off-site releases, other on-site
waste management, transfers off-site for further waste
management, and total production-related waste are
the same as the totals in Chapter 2.
Baseline Comparisons
Tables for 1988 to 1997 include only chemicals that
were reportable in all years from 1988 through 1997.
These tables do not include, for example, chemicals
added in 1990,1991,1994, or 1995. Also for 1989,
non-fibrous forms of aluminum oxide were removed
from the list. Because of this modification, aluminum
oxide is not included in any year-to-year comparison
that includes the year 1988. As explained below, the
reporting definitions for ammonia, hydrochloric acid,
and sulfuric acid have changed, and they therefore are
also not included in these tables. These tables
summarize reporting for the 1988-1997 "core"
chemicals.
Similarly, tables that compare data for 1991 to 1997
do not include chemicals added in 1994 or 1995.
These tables analyze TRI data only for the chemicals
that were on the TRI list, in the same form, for all
years 1991-1997.
Because of this normalization process, done to assure
accurate year-to-year comparisons, totals for 1997 in
the multi-year baseline tables differ from the 1997
totals in Chapter 2 and in the three-year tables in this
chapter.
None of the tables includes any chemical deleted from
the TRI list, regardless of the year it was deleted.
TRI data are reported as absolute amounts each year,
not as changes in relation to production levels or other
factors, such as source reduction activity, that might
influence these amounts from year to year. Chapter 4,
presenting industry-specific data, takes a very basic
look at changes in production as they may relate to
increases and decreases in releases and other waste
management of TRI chemicals.
Reporting of Ammonia,
Hydrochloric Acid, and Sulfuric Acid
As described in Box 3-1, reporting requirements for
ammonia have changed. Also, ammonium sulfate and
ammonium nitrate are no longer individually listed on
TRI. The ammonia portion of these chemicals,
however, remains on the TRI list, and the nitrate ion
portion of ammonium nitrate is reportable under the
nitrate compounds category (added with the 1995
reporting year).
In addition, non-aerosol forms of hydrochloric acid
and sulfuric acid have been removed from the list,
hydrochloric acid with the 1995 reporting year and
sulfuric acid in 1994 (see Box 3-2).

Box 3-1. An Explanation of the Modification to this Reporting Requirements for Aqueous Ammonia and the Delisting of
Ammonium Sulfate (Solution) and Ammonium Nitrate (Solution)
An Explanation of the Modification to the Reporting Requirements for Aqueous Ammonia
and the Delisting of Ammonium Sulfate (Solution) and Ammonium Nitrate (Solution)
On June 30,1995, EPA finalized four actions in response to a petition to delete ammonium sulfate (solution) from the list of toxic chemicals
subject to reporting under EPCRA section 313: (1) deleted the sulfate portion of ammonium sulfate (solution) from the list of toxic chemicals
and made the ammonia portion reportable under the ammonia listing, (2) required that threshold and release determinations for aqueous
ammonia be based on 10% of the total aqueous ammonia present in aqueous solutions of ammonia, (3) modified the ammonia listing by adding
this qualifier: "ammonia (includes anhydrous ammonia and aqueous ammonia from water dissociable ammonium salts and other sources; 10%
of total aqueous ammonia is reportable under this listing)," and (4) removed the specific listing for ammonium nitrate (solution), although the
ammonia portion is still reportable under the ammonia listing and, as discussed below, ammonium nitrate is also reportable under the nitrate
compounds category. All actions were effective for the 1994 reporting year (reports due July 1,1995), except for deletion of the specific listing
for ammonium nitrate (solution), which became effective with the 1995 reporting year.
In previous years, there was a great deal of confusion as to what should be reported under the ammonia listing, specifically over the sources of
aqueous ammonia that must be included and how aqueous ammonia should be reported. Modifying the ammonia listing by adding the above
qualifier should result in more consistent and accurate reporting under this listing since it clarifies what is reportable. The requirement to report
only 10% of total aqueous ammonia under the ammonia listing takes into account the fact that one foijn of ammonia is relatively more toxic to
aquatic organisms and that under many environmental conditions this form makes up no more than 10% of total aqueous ammonia. The 10%
reporting limit for aqueous ammonia means that some facilities will no longer meet reporting thresholds and that the pounds of aqueous
ammonia reported as released and transferred from the facilities that do report may be lower. It is important to, remember that the 10% reporting
limit only applies to aqueous ammonia; anhydrous ammonia is still 100% reportable.
Although ammonium sulfate (solution) has been deleted from the list, the aqueous ammonia from this chemical is still reportable under the
ammonia listing. To determine the amount of aqueous ammonia from ammonium sulfate (solution) that should be added to the aqueous
ammonia totals, the amount of ammonium sulfate (solution) is multiplied by 0.026. This represents 10% of the total aqueous ammonia present
in ammonium sulfate (solution) since ammonia (as NH3) makes up 26% of ammonium sulfate.
The removal of the ammonium nitrate (solution) listing is reflected in this public data release. Like ammonium sulfate (solution), the aqueous
ammonia from ammonium nitrate (solution) is reportable under the ammonia listing. To determine the amount of aqueous ammonia from
ammonium nitrate (solution) that should be added to the aqueous ammonia totals, the amount of ammonium nitrate (solution) is multiplied by
0.021. This represents 10% of the total aqueous ammonia present in ammonium nitrate (solution) since ammonia (asNH3) makes up 21% of
ammonium nitrate. In addition, ammonium nitrate is also reportable under the nitrate compounds category, which was added for the 1995
reporting year. Although this chemical is reportable under two listings, no double reporting of releases or transfers occurs since under the nitrate
compounds category only the weight of the nitrate ion is included in calculations of releases and transfers.
To determine the quantity of total aqueous ammonia released to surface water, land, or underground injection, data users must multiply the
reported quantity by 10. For example, to make use of the quantities reported for aqueous ammonia in any analysis of releases to surface waters,
the reported amounts must be converted to total aqueous ammonia values. This is necessary in-order to take into account site-specific conditions
of pH and temperature which determine the amount of total ammonia that will be present in the more aquatically toxic form. To convert the
reported aqueous ammonia values to total ammonia, simply multiply amounts by 10,

Chapter 3 — Year-to-year Comparison of Toxics Release Inventory Data
Box 3-2. An Explanation of the Modification to the Reporting Requirements for Hydrochloric and Sulfuric Acid
An Explanation of the Modification to the Reporting Requirements
for Hydrochloric and Sulfuric Acid
On June 30,1995, EPA finalized a modification to the listing for sulfuric acid, and on July 25,1996, EPA finalized the same modification to the
listing for hydrochloric acid. These two chemical listings were modified by the addition of the following qualifier: "(acid aerosols including
mists, vapors, gas, fog, and other airborne forms of any particle size)." The modification to sulfuric acid was effective for the 1994 reporting year
and Ihc modification to hydrochloric acid was effective for the 1995 reporting year. EPA made those modifications in response to petitions to
delist the non-aerosol forms of these chemicals. EPA determined that the non-aerosol forms did not meet the listing criteria of EPCRA section
313(d) and therefore granted the petitions. These modifications mean that facilities are no longer required to report releases and transfers of non-
acrosol forms of sulfuric and hydrochloric acid under EPA section 313.
These changes in the reporting requirements for sulfuric and hydrochloric acid are reflected in the largest reductions in reported amounts of these
chemicals as compared to those published in TRI Public Data Release reports prior to the volume for the 1996 reporting year. Most of these
reductions result from the fact that solutions of these chemicals that do not become airborne are exempt from reporting. Thus, there are large
reductions in the reported amounts released, particularly quantities discharged to surface waters and injected underground and in amounts
reported for most types of transfers. Since airborne forms are still covered by these listings, reported fugitive or nonpoint air emissions have not
changed as much as other types of releases, and there has been little change in the stack or point air emission totals. In addition to lower reported
releases and transfers, some facilities may no longer exceed reporting thresholds for the aerosol forms only and thus may not have to file a
report.
Only airborne forms of these chemicals count towards
the reporting threshold and release calculations, and
releases of their non-aerosol forms are no longer
reportable. Because of this modification to the
reporting requirements, these chemicals are not
included in multi-year comparisons in this chapter
(tables with data for 1988 or 1991).
Threshold Changes
Facilities are required to report for a particular
chemical only if they meet the manufacture, process,
or otherwise use thresholds. The otherwise use
threshold has remained 10,000 pounds since the
inception of the program. However, the manufacture
and process thresholds began at 75,000 pounds for the
1987 reporting year, dropped to 50,000 pounds for
1988, and dropped to 25,000 pounds for 1989 and
thereafter. Due in part to these declining thresholds,
the number of facilities reporting to TRI and the
number of forms filed increased from 1987 to 1988
and again from 1988 to 1989. These threshold
changes may have affected the TRI data between
1988 and 1989, but would not affect data after 1989.
As discussed hi Chapter 1, EPA has proposed lower
thresholds for persistent bioaccurnulators (PBTs).
As explained in Chapter 1, facilities whose "total
annual reportable amount" does not exceed 500
pounds can submit certification statements (Form As)
instead of Form Rs (if they do not manufacture,
process, or otherwise use more than 1 million pounds
of the chemical). This change became effective in
reporting year 1995. Form A certification statements
identify the facility and chemical, but do not supply
any amounts of releases or other waste management.
In prior years, facilities were required to report such
amounts, and totals for 1988-1994 include these
submissions. More than 10,500 Form A certification
statements were submitted in 1997—these do not
provide release or other waste management data.
Thus, some portion of any decrease in reported
amounts from 1994 or earlier years would be
attributable to the submission of these certification
forms. In 1997, with 10,547 Form As and a maximum
of 500 pounds of production-related waste managed
per form, the total production-related waste managed
would, at most, be 5,273,500 pounds higher or an
additional 0,02% reported if each Form A represented
the full 500 pounds.

Chapter 3 - Year-to-Year Comparison of Toxics Release Inventory Data
Underground Injection and
On-site Land Releases
In 1996, TRI began collecting data separately for
types of underground injection and for on-site land
releases to RCRA subtitle C landfills. Instead of
reporting a total for underground injection in Form
R's Section 5, facilities began reporting amounts
injected into Class I wells separately from amounts
injected into underground wells of other classes (II-
V). Similarly, RCRA subtitle C landfills were
separated out from other types of on-site land releases
that are reported in Section 5. Because these releases
were not broken out until 1996, they cannot be
analyzed separately in the tables in this chapter.
Waste Management
As described in Chapter 2, the Pollution Prevention
Act of 1990 added to TRI the collection of waste
management data items including: on- and off-site
recycling, energy recovery, and treatment, plus
quantity released on- and off-site, plus one-time
catastrophic or remedial releases (non-production-
related waste). Because these data items were not
collected until 1991, comparisons cannot be drawn
with 1988 data,
New Types of Transfers
Beginning with the 1991 reporting year, facilities
were required to report transfers off-site for the
purposes of recycling and energy recovery to TRI.
Prior to 1991, facilities were required to report only
transfers to POTWs and other off-site locations for
the purposes of treatment and disposal. Because of
this change in the reporting requirements, transfers
off-site for further waste management for 1988 are
not comparable to such transfers for 1991 and
beyond. Comparisons between 1988 and 1997
transfers in this chapter include only those transfer
types that were reportable in 1988.
Metals and Metal Compounds
As explained in Chapter 2, TRI began in reporting
year 1997 distinguishing metals and metal
compounds from other listed chemicals in certain
types of off-site transfers. Specifically, metals and
metal compounds transferred off-site to
solidification/stabilization, to wastewater treatment
(excluding POTWs), and to POTWs are also
classified as off-site releases. (See Chapter 2, Boxes
2-2 through 2-4.) Although this categorization is new
in 1997, comparable transfers of metals and metal
compounds in previous years can be identified by the
waste treatment codes that applied in those years.
Tables in this chapter present such data.
Reasons for Change
Box 3-3 provides reasons that a facility's reported
amounts may change from one year to another.
Explanations for changes in reported amounts include
actual source reduction projects undertaken to reduce
a facility's generation of waste of a particular
chemical, increases or decreases in production levels,
changes in a facility's methods of estimating or
calculating reportable amounts (which does not
indicate a corresponding change in actual releases and
waste management), reporting errors in previous years
for which the facility has not filed a revised
submission, and others.
Apparent increases and decreases among industries
(as seen in Chapter 4) can also result when facilities
change the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)
codes that they report from one year to another,
reflecting new or discontinued facility operations or
indicating a different understanding of how SIC codes
relate to the facility's business.

•n
Chapters- Year-to-year Comparison of Toxics Release Inventory Data
1995-1997 National Overview
On- and Off-site Releases, 1995-1997
Total on- and off-site releases of toxic chemicals to
the environment decreased by 38.8 million pounds
from 1995 to 1997, as shown in Table 3-1. This net
reduction of 1.5% occurred as total on- and off-site
releases first declined from 2.62 billion pounds in
1995 to 2.52 billion pounds in 1996 and then
increased to 2.58 billion pounds in 1997.
Sf te Releases
From 1995 to 1997, on-site releases decreased by
8.2%, a reduction of 187.8 million pounds (see Table
3-1) On-site releases totaled 2,30 billion pounds in
1995 and 2.12 billion pounds in 1997.
Air emissions, the largest type of on-site release in
TRI reporting, also showed the largest reduction:
from 1.58 billion pounds in 1995 to 1.33 billion
pounds in 1997. This 15.7% reduction included
decreases in both fugitive emissions (down 19.1%)
and point source emissions (down 14.6%). Facilities
also reported less underground injection, decreasing
from 233.6 million pounds to 219.5 million pounds (a
6.0% reduction).
Surface water discharges and on-site land releases
both increased. Surface water discharges rose from
175.8 million pounds in 1995 to 218.4 million pounds
in 1997, a 24.2% increase. One facility reporting in
SIC code 33, the primary metals industry, reported an
increase in surface water discharges of nitrate
compounds from 9.8 million pounds hi 1995 to 26.0
million pounds in 1997. The facility attributed the
increase to increased production and to increased use
of nitric acid in a pickling process for production of
specialty steels. A facility reporting in SIC code 28,
chemical manufacturing, reported an increase in
surface water discharges of phosphoric acid from 14.1
million pounds in 1995 to 29.0 million pounds in
1997. This facility attributed its increase in part to the
facility's lowering of water levels in ponds, requiring
an increase in the releases of water containing
phosphoric acid. Large rain events in previous years
had filled the ponds to capacity, restricting the
facility's capacity. The facility contact indicated that
the facility expects releases of phosphoric acid to
decline in 1998 to 1995 levels.
On-site land releases increased from 315.6 million
pounds in 1995 to 346.9 million pounds in 1997, a
9.9% increase. This included substantial increases in
on-site land releases of metal compounds by two
primary metals facilities (SIC code 33). One facility
reported on-site land releases of 3.1 million pounds of
zinc compounds in 1995 and 12.0 million pounds in
1997. Another facility reported increases for four
metal compounds: arsenic compounds from 620,000
pounds to 4.2 million pounds; copper compounds
from 2.4 million pounds to 9.9 million pounds; lead
compounds from 760,000 to 4.5 million pounds; and
zinc compounds from 1.6 million pounds to 5.0
million pounds. (The total increase for the facility's
reporting of these four metal compounds was 18.2
million pounds.) This facility indicated that it
changed its smelting process in June 1995 to reduce
sulfur dioxide emissions. From 1996 to 1997,
increased production brought about a two-fold
increase in production of slag tailings, accounting for
about two-thirds of the facility's increase. The facility
attributed the rest of the increase to a clean-up process
that began in 1996. In this activity, sediment is being
removed from old sludge ponds, dried, and relocated
to a lined repository on-site that meets RCRA
specifications. The clean-up process is excepted to
continue for a couple of years.

Chapter 3 — Year-to-year Comparison of Toxics Release inventory Data
Box 3-3. Reasons Facility Estimates of Releases and Other Waste Management Change
Reasons Facility Estimates of Releases and Other Waste Management Change
Some reported increases and decreases are real—that is, they reflect changes in the amounts of TRI chemicals actually released or otherwise
managed in waste. Other reported increases and decreases are accounting or "paper" changes that do not reflect change in releases or other waste
management. Some examples follow.
Real Changes
Source reduction activities, such as process changes, elimination of spills and leaks, inventory control, improved maintenance, chemical
substitution, and alternative methods of cleaning and degreasing can cause real reduction in the amount of waste generated and/or managed.
The installation of pollution control equipment does not reduce the amount of waste generated, but may lead to real reductions in TRI chemicals
released. However, if the pollution control does not destroy the reported chemical, it may merely shift waste from one type of waste management
to another.
Production changes can cause real changes in the quantities of TRI chemicals released or otherwise managed as waste by facilities. Production-
related waste is likely to increase when production increases and decrease when production decreases, although the relationship is not necessarily
linear.
One-time events unrelated to normal production processes, such as accidental releases or clean-up operations, can cause a real but anomalous
increase in the reporting year in which they occur and then a decrease from that abnormally high level the following year,
"Paper" Changes
Changes in estimation or calculation techniques can cause a change in the amount reported without a corresponding change in actual quantities
released or otherwise managed as waste.
Clarifications of reporting instructions or changes in the way a facility interprets those instructions may cause a change in reported amounts
without an actual change in quantities released or otherwise managed as waste.
Changes in the reporting definition of a particular chemical may cause a change in the reported amounts without an actual change in quantities
released or otherwise managed as waste. For example, revising the definitions of sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid to include only aerosol
forms, as discussed in Box 3-2, will result in lower reports of releases, when non-aerosol forms are no longer reported.
Similarly, a facility's use of the alternate threshold may result in a reported decrease without an actual reduction in releases if the facility begins
to take advantage of the alternate manufacture, process,, or otherwise use threshold of more than 1 million pounds. Beginning in the 1995
reporting year, some facilities whose "total annual repcrtable amount" for a reportable chemical does not exceed 500 pounds may use an
alternate manufacture, process, or otherwise use threshold of more than 1 million pounds of the chemical. If they do not exceed this alternate
threshold, they no longer need to report amounts of releases or other waste management activities.
Apparent increases or decreases can occur if a facility makes a reporting error one year and does not submit a revision for that year, but does not
repeat the error the following year.

•Seven facilities in the food processing industry (SIC code 20) reported from 500 million pounds to 1 billion pounds each in on-site recycling of n-hexane in 1995, for
a total 4,000,192,215 billion pounds. In 19%, these facilities reported no on-site recycling of n-hexane. On their 1996 Form Rs, these facilities also reported zero for
on-site recycling of n-hexane for the prior year (1995). However, they have not revised their 1995 Form Rs. Another facility, Shintech Inc. in Freeport, TX, reported
on-site recycling of vinyl chloride of 200,000 pounds in 1995 and 244,000 pounds in 1996. The facility has since revised these quantities to 200,000,000 pounds in
1995 and 244,000,000 pounds in 1996. The apparent facility errors and the facility revisions change on-site recycling to 7,680,103,504 pounds in 1995 and to
7,543,807,732 pounds in 1996. The change in on-site recycling changes to 306,515,418 pounds or 4.0%.
"One facility, TPI Petroleum in Ardmore, OK, reported on-site energy recovery for ethylene of 82,500,000 pounds in 1995,36,250,000 pounds in 1996, and
422,000,000 pounds in 1997. The facility also reported on-site energy recovery for propylene of 12,900,000 pounds in 1995,16,300,000 pounds in 1996, and
272,000,000 pounds in 1997. The facility has since revised these quantities to zero. Another facility, Shell Chemical Co. in Geismar, LA, reported on-site energy
recovery for ethylene of 193,830,000 pounds in 1997, The facility has since revised this quantity to 13,000,000 pounds. These revisions change on-site energy

Chapter 3 - year-to-year Comparison of Toxics Release Inventory Data
Off-site Releases
From 1995 to 1997, off-site releases (transfers to
disposal) increased substantially (47.7%) from 312.1
million pounds to 461.1 million pounds. Most of this
increase—114.0 million pounds of a 149.0-rnillion-
pound increase—occurred from 1996 to 1997,
Transfers of metals and metal compounds to
solidification/stabilization contributed the majority of
the increase in off-site releases from 1995 to 1997.
Such transfers totaled 26.4 million pounds in 1995,
57.7 million pounds in 1996, and 144.3 million
pounds in 1997. This amounted to an increase of
117.9 million pounds, or 447.0%, from 1995 to 1997.
More widespread awareness of the reporting
requirements, as EPA added specific reporting codes
for certain transfers of metals and metal compounds
in 1997 (see Chapter 2, Box 2-3), may partly explain
this increase.
Transfers of all TRI chemicals to landfills/disposal
surface impoundments showed the second-largest
absolute increase from 1995 to 1997, a 31.0 million
pound increase. Landfills/disposal surface
impoundments received 220.8 million pounds in 1995
and 251.9 million pounds in 1997, a 14.1% increase.
As seen in Table 3-1, other types of off-site releases
increased or decreased by less than 5 million pounds
each from 1995 to 1997.
Other On-site Waste
Management, 1995-1997
Other on-site waste management reported to TRI
decreased from 21.34 billion pounds in 1995 to 18.81
billion pounds in 1997 (see Table 3-1). However,
these data reflect large apparent reporting errors,
including some facility submissions that were revised
after the TRI data were "frozen" for preparation of
this report. "TRI Chemicals Managed in Waste, 1995-
1997," below, further examines the effects of these
reporting errors and revisions. Taking into account the
changes and errors, other on-site waste management
increased 2.8% from 17.45 billion pounds hi 1995 to
17.93 billion pounds in 1997.
Transfers Off-site for Further
Waste Management, 1995-1997
Transfers of TRI chemicals off-site for further waste
management decreased from 3.47 billion pounds in
1995 to 3.42 billion pounds in 1997, a 1.5% reduction
(see Table 3-1). Transfers to recycling decreased from
2.45 billion pounds to 2.38 billion pounds, the largest
absolute reduction (68.1 million pounds). Transfers to
POTWs increased from 246.5 million pounds to 266.9
million pounds, the largest increase (20.4 million
pounds).
Facilities and Forms, 1995-1997
The number of facilities reporting to TRI and the
number of forms they submitted both decreased by
approximately 5% from 1995 to 1997, as shown in
Table 3-1. In 1995,22,664 facilities reported,
declining to 21,490 in 1997. TRI facilities submitted
75,371 forms in 1995 and 71,670 in 1997. However,
the number of facilities and forms for 1997 is likely to
rise somewhat over time due to late reporting and to
the resolution of outstanding data quality problems.
Although the total number of forms decreased,
facilities submitted a greater number of Form A
certification statements in 1997. Form A submissions,
explained above and in Chapter 1, rose from 6,578 in
1995—the first year in which facilities could submit
these forms—to 10,547 in 1997. This represented a
60.3% increase in Form A submissions. At the same
time, submissions of Form Rs declined from 68,793
in 1995 to 61,123 in 1997, an 11.1% decrease. The
increase in Form A submissions may reflect both
increasing awareness of the reduced reporting option
and an increasing number of facilities meeting the
alternative threshold for one or more chemicals.

Chapters- Year-to-year Comparison of Toxics Release Inventory Data
TRI Chemicals Managed
in Waste, 1995-1997
From 1995 to 1997, the quantities of TRI chemicals
that facilities managed in production-related waste
decreased from 27.49 billion pounds to 24.73 billion
pounds. As shown in Table 3-2, this amounted to a
10.0% reduction. Howeve^ these quantities include
apparent facility errors in on-site recycling and on-site
energy recovery data that substantially affect overall
totals. These facility reporting issues are described
below. Taking into account the errors and changes,
production-related waste managed would total 23.59
billion pounds in 1995 and 23.85 billion pounds in
1997, an increase of 1.1 %.
As shown in Table 3-2, facilities reported on-site
recycling of 11.48 billion pounds in 1995, dropping to
7.30 billion pounds in 1996, and then rising to 7.99
billion pounds in 1997. However, apparent facility
errors and late revisions would change this large
reduction to an increase. In 1995, seven food
processing facilities (Standard Industrial
Classification code 20) reported on-site recycling of
500 million to 1 billion pounds each of n-hexane, a
chemical added to TRI in the 1995 reporting year.
Together, their 1995 on-site recycling of n-hexane
totaled 4.00 billion pounds. In 1996 and 1997, these
facilities reported no on-site recycling of n-hexane.
TRI facilities report production-related waste
quantities for both the prior year and current year
(along with projections for the following two years).
As noted in the 1996 TRI Data Release1, these
facilities reported on their 1996 TRI Form. Rs zero
amounts of on-site recycling of n-hexane for the prior
year (1995), but did not revise their 1995
submissions. Such changes generally indicate that
facilities have revised their interpretation of on-site
recycling. Currently, there are no TRI regulatory
definitions of recycling, and facilities may use'their
^1996 Toxics Release Inventory Public Data Release—Ten Years of
Right-to-Know: Industry Sector Analyses, US EPA, Office of Pollution
Prevention and Toxics, EPA 745-R-98-018, December 1998,
own interpretations for purposes of reporting to TRI.
Some facilities have chosen to restrict their
interpretation of on-site recycling to cover a very
limited set of activities. Therefore, quantities that may
have been reported as amounts undergoing waste
management activities in early years are not reported
on the Form R in subsequent years and are, thus, not
in the TRI database. These changes in interpretations
do not represent a change in guidance by EPA on how
to report recycling. Because the seven food
processing facilities did not revise their 1995
submissions, the large amounts of on-site recycling
they reported in 1995 remain in the TRI data.
Furthermore, another facility reported on-site
recycling of 200,000 pounds of vinyl chloride in
1995,244,000 pounds in 1996, and 243.8 million
pounds in 1997. This facility revised its 1995 and
1996 submissions after the TRI database was "frozen"
for preparation of this report. The revised amounts
were 200.0 million pounds in 1995 and 244.0 million
pounds in 1996. This revision eliminates an apparent
increase for this facility from 1995 to 1997 of 241.8
million pounds in on-site recycling.
Therefore, excluding the 1995 reporting of on-site
recycling of n-hexane by the seven food processors
and incorporating the revised submission for vinyl
chloride, on-site recycling would show an increase
from 7.68 billion pounds in 1995 to 7.99 billion
pounds in 1997. This would constitute a 4.0%
increase from 1995 to 1997, rather than the 30.4%
reduction shown in Table 3-2. .
On-site energy recovery increased by nearly 1 billion
pounds from 1995 to 1997, as shown in Table 3-2,
with facilities reporting 2.82 billion pounds in 1995
and 3.81 billion pounds in 1997, an increase of
34.8%. However, one facility that reported
combustion for energy recovery of 193.8 million
pounds of ethylene in 1997 revised its submission
after the TRI data were "frozen" for this report. The
facility's revised report for on-site energy recovery of

ethylene totals 13.0 million pounds. This facility thus
shows an increase from 1995 to 1997 of 8.5 million
pounds instead of 189.3 million pounds. Another
facility reported a total of 95.4 million pounds of on-
site energy recovery of ethylene and propylene in
1995 and 694.0 million pounds in 1997. This facility
also revised its submissions after the cut-off for
inclusion in this report, changing its 1995 and 1997
amounts for both chemicals to zero. The revision
eliminates an increase of 598.6 million pounds from
1995 to 1997. Taking into account these facility
revisions, on-site energy recovery would increase
7.5% from 2.73 billion in 1995 to 2.93 billion in
1997.
Off-site energy recovery also increased, from 503.5
million pounds to 525.6 million pounds, or 4.4%.
All other waste management methods decreased from
1995 to 1997. These included a reduction in off-site
recycling from 2.54 billion pounds to 2.39 billion
pounds and a reduction in quantity released on- and
off-site from 2.54 billion pounds to 2.47 billion
pounds. Smaller decreases appeared in both on-site
treatment (from 7.04 billion pounds to 7.01 billion
pounds) and off-site treatment (from 562.4 million
pounds to 536.0 million pounds).
A few facilities have reported substantial changes
over time in on-site treatment. Two facilities with the
same parent company reported no on-site treatment of
creosote until 1996, when each reported a relatively
small quantity. From 1996 to 1997, on-site treatment
of creosote increased at the two facilities from 3,4
million pounds to 583.9 million pounds, in one case,
and from 784,000 pounds to 104.9 million pounds in
the other.
Another facility reported 220.8 million pounds of on-
site treatment of phosphoric acid in 1995. This facility
reported no on-site treatment of phosphoric acid in
subsequent years, but instead reported substantial
quantities of on-site recycling of the chemical (110.6
million pounds in 1996 and 200.9 million pounds in
1997).
1988 and 1995-1997
National Overview
The "core" chemicals description in the introduction
to this chapter explains the differences in coverage of
analyses in this section with those in the 1995-1997
section above.
On- and Off-site Releases,
1988 and 1995-1997
For the 1988-1997 "core" chemicals, TRI facilities
have reduced their total on- and off-site releases by
42.8% since the 1988 baseline year. As shown in
Table 3-3, releases declined from 3.40 billion pounds
in 1995 to 1.94 billion pounds in 1997—a decrease of
1.45 billion pounds. Figure 3-1 illustrates the change
by type of release.
On-site Releases
Nearly all of the change in total releases was
attributable to on-site releases, which constituted
more than 87% of the total in 1988, the baseline year.
In 1988, facilities reported 2.97 billion pounds of on-
site releases. By 1997, on-site releases decreased to
1.51 billion pounds, a reduction of 1.46 billion
pounds or 49.2%. (See Table 3-3.)
Air emissions represented the largest component of
the reduction in on-site releases of "core" chemicals,
falling 55.0% from 2.18 billion pounds in 1988 to just
under 1 billion pounds in 1997. Both fugitive and
point source emissions contributed to the reduction in
ah" emissions. Fugitive emissions decreased by a
greater percentage (64.7%, or 441.0 million pounds)
and point source emissions by the larger amount
(758.8 million pounds or 50.6%).

1 One facility, Shintech Inc. in Freeport, TX, reported on-site recycling of vinyl chloride of 200,000 pounds in 1995 and 244,000 pounds in 1996. The facility has since
revised these quantities to 200,000,000 pounds in 1995 and 244,000,000 pounds in 1996. These revisions change on-site recycling to 6,273,065,292 pounds in 1995
and to 6,432,263,173 pounds fa 1996.
•One facility, TPI Petroleum in Ardmore, OK, reported on-site energy recovery for ethylene of 82,500,000 pounds in 1995,36,250,000 pounds in 1996, and
422,000,000 pounds in 1997. The facility also reported on-site energy recovery for propylene of 12,900,000 pounds in 1995,16,300,000 pounds in 1996, and
272,000,000 pounds in 1997. The facility has since revised these quantities to zero. Another facility, Shell Chemical Co. in Oeismar, LA, reported on-site energy
recovery for ethylene of 193,830,000 pounds in 1997, The facility has since revised this quantity to 13,000,000 pounds. These revisions change on-site energy recovery
to 2,578,781,626 pounds in 1995, to 2,534,900,531 pounds in 1996, and to 2,677,099,018 pounds in 1997.
'Revisions by three facilities change total other on-site waste management to 13,622,295,104 pounds in 1995, to 13,393,532,994 pounds in 1996, and to
13,935,393,752 pounds in 1997.
'Other Off-site Transfers are transfers reported without a valid waste management code.
On-site land releases decreased 120.5 million pounds
from 1988 to 1997, the second-largest contribution to
the overall reduction in on-site releases. On-site land
releases totaled 459.3 million pounds in 1988 and
338.8 million pounds in 1997. However, these
releases have increased from 304.1 million pounds
since 1995.
pounds. This constituted a 62.7% reduction for the
full 1988-1997 period, despite the recent increases. In
contrast, underground injection declined relatively
steadily but more slowly, to 126.5 million pounds in
1997, a 21.9% reduction since 1988.
Off-site Releases
In 1988, facilities reported comparable amounts of
surface water discharges (164.6 million pounds) and
underground injection (162.0 million pounds).
Surface water discharges decreased substantially in
the earlier years, dropping to 36.6 million pounds by
1995j and have since increased to 61.4 million
Off-site releases have nearly doubled as a percentage
of all releases since 1988 both because of the
substantial reductions in on-site releases and because
off-site releases have increased in recent years. (Off-
site releases represented 12.6% of total on- and off-
site releases in 1988, rising to 22.3% in 1997.)

Figure 3-1. Distribution of TRI On-site and Off-site Releases, 1988-1997
Nolc: On-site Releases from Section 5 of Form R. Off-site Releases are from Section 6 (transfers off-site to disposal) of Form R.
As shown in Table 3-3, off-site releases (transfers off-
site to disposal, including certain types of transfers of
metals and metal compounds, explained above and in
Chapter 2) decreased from 427.9 million pounds in
1988 to 287.7 million pounds in 1995. However, this
total increased to 432.9 million pounds by 1997. The
overall change (1988 to 1997) amounted to an
increase of 4.9 million pounds or 1.2%. Figure 3-1
also shows the increase in off-site releases hi recent
years.
Much of the increase in off-site releases occurred hi
solidification/stabilization of metals and metal
compounds in preparation for disposal, which
increased from 29.5 million pounds hi 1988 to 144.3
million pounds hi 1997. (Although reporting codes
for these transfers changed in 1997, comparable data
can be distinguished using the applicable codes for
earlier years.) The resulting increase of 114.8 million
pounds amounts to a percentage change of 388.7%.
Off-site underground injection also increased, from
nearly 9.0 million ppunds in 1988 to 10.9 million
pounds in 1997, a 21.3% increase.
Some types of transfers to disposal that show overall
reductions from 1988 to 1997 have been increasing
since 1995. An example is the reduction of 34.7
million pounds in transfers to landfills/disposal
surface impoundments. This reduction consisted of a
56.8 million-pound reduction from 1988 to 1995 and
a 22.2 million-pound increase since 1995.
Other On-site Waste Management,
1988 and 1995-1997
TRI did not begin collecting on-site waste
management data until 1991. For the 1988-1997
"core" chemicals, Table 3-3 presents on-site waste
management data for 1995 through 1997. (Data for
3-16
-------
Chapters- Year-to-Year Comparison of Toxics Release Inventory Data
the 1991-1997 "core" chemicals are analyzed in "TRI
Chemicals Managed in Waste," later in this chapter.)
Other on-site waste management increased from
13.52 billion pounds in 1995 to 14.81 billion pounds
in 1997. Information discussed in "TRI Chemicals
Managed in Waste, 1995-1997," earlier in this
chapter, concerning food processing facilities with
large apparent errors in 1995 reporting of on-site
recycling of n-hexane does not affect data in Table 3-
3 because n-hexane was added to TRI in reporting
year 1995. Other facility reporting changes mentioned
in "TRI Chemicals Managed in Waste, 1995-1997" do
apply. When these changes are taken into account,
total other on-site waste management of the "core"
chemicals in Table 3-3 increased from 13.62 billion
pounds in 1995 to 13.94 billion pounds in 1997.
Taking facility revisions into account, on-site
recycling would increase from 6.27 billion pounds in
1995 to 6.73 billion pounds in 1997, and oil-site
energy recovery would increase from 2.58 billion
pounds in 1995 to 2.68 billion pounds in 1997. The
facility changes discussed in this chapter do not affect
on-site treatment presented in Table 3-3, wMch
decreased from 4.77 billion pounds in 1995 to 4.52
billion pounds in 1997.
Transfers Off-site for Further Waste
Management, 1988 and 1995-1997
Reporting of transfers to recycling and energy
recovery also did not begin until 1991. As shown in
Table 3-3, from 1995 to 1997, transfers to recycling
decreased from 2.39 billion pounds to 2.33 billion
pounds, and transfers to energy recovery decreased
from 489.2 million pounds to 470.0 million pounds.
Transfers off-site to treatment and to POTWs both
decreased by 35.7% from 1988 to 1997. Transfers to
treatment decreased from 335.1 million pounds to
215.4 million pounds, and transfers to POTWs
decreased from 245.2 million pounds to 157.7 million
pounds.
On- and Off-site Releases
by State
Releases by State, 1995-1997
Thirty-five states and .territories reported decreases in
total on- and off-site releases from 1995 to 1997.
Table 3-4 compares the on- and off-site releases
reported by each state and territory for 1995-1997.
Although Texas facilities reported the largest total
releases in all three years, Texas was also the state
with the largest absolute reduction, from 304.3
million pounds in 1995 to 261.7 million pounds in
1997. Alabama ranked second with a reduction from
114.8 million pounds in 1995 to 94.7 million pounds
in 1997, a 20.1 million-pound reduction. The state
with the third-largest decrease was Michigan, from
102.1 million pounds in 1995 to 85.3 million pounds
in 1997, a difference of 16.8 million pounds. While
Texas had a greater absolute reduction than either
Alabama or Michigan, both Alabama and Michigan
showed greater relative reductions: These three states
made reductions of 14.0% (Texas), 17.5% (Alabama),
and 16.5% (Michigan) from 1995 to 1997.
Three other states also reported reductions of more
than 10 million pounds each: California (from 56.5
million pounds to 45.2 million pounds, a 20.1%
reduction), New Mexico (from 45.0 million pounds to
34.2 million pounds, or 24.1%), and North Carolina
(from 95.6 million pounds to 85.1 million pounds, or
11.0%).
In 20 states and territories, total on- and off-site
releases increased from 1995 to 1997, as shown in
Table 3-4. The largest increase occurred in
Utah—from 78.6 million pounds to 103.7 million
pounds. The increase in Utah amounted to 25.1
million pounds, or 31.9%. Arkansas ranked second
with total releases rising from 37.8 million pounds to
59.7 million pounds, a 21.9-million-pound increase,

or 58.1%. Pennsylvania facilities reported 128.4
million pounds in 1995 and 143.2 million pounds in
1997, the third-largest increase. The Pennsylvania
increase amounted to 14.8 million pounds, or 11.5%,
Two other states also reported increases of more than
10 million pounds each: Florida (from 81.5 million
pounds to 95.4 million pounds, a 17.1% increase) and
Georgia (60.9 million pounds to 71.9 million pounds,
an 18.1% increase).
Releases by State,
1988 and 1995-1997
A total of 46 states and territories reported reductions
in on- and off-site releases from 1988, TRPs baseline
year, through 1997. In six states and the District of
Columbia, total releases increased from 1988 to 1997.
(Two territories, Guam and American Samoa, had no
releases in either 1988 or 1997.) Table 3-5 shows total
releases for each state and territory for 1988 and
1995-1997.
Of the three states with the largest absolute decreases
in releases ffom 1988 to 1997—Texas, Louisiana, and
California—California had the largest relative
decrease, a 75.0% reduction. Louisiana recorded the
second-largest relative decrease—49.8%—among the
three states, and Texas ranked third with a percentage
reduction of 44.3%. In absolute terms, Texas facilities
reported the largest reduction among all states and
territories, with a decrease of 143.0 million, pounds
(from 322.5 million pounds in 1988 to 179.5 million
pounds in 1997). Louisiana ranked second for
absolute reduction with a decrease of 125.0 million
pounds (from 250.9 million pounds to 125.9 million
pounds). California's reduction of 83.1 million
pounds (from 110.8 million pounds in 1998 to 27.7
million pounds in 1997) ranked third among all states
and territories.
Arkansas facilities reported the largest increase in
total releases from 1988 to 1997. Arkansas' on- and
off-site releases increased 8.2 million pounds (from
41.2 million pounds in 1988 to 49.4 million pounds in
1997). Montana ranked second with an increase of 6.7
million pounds (from 35.6 million pounds to 42.3
million pounds). The percentage increases in the two
states were similar; 19.8% in Arkansas and 18.7% in
Montana. In third-ranked Idaho, the increase from
1988 to 1997 was 5.5 million pounds (from 7.4
million pounds to 12.9 million pounds), or 75.4%.
TRI Chemicals Managed in Waste
TRI Chemicals Managed in Waste,
1991 and 1995-1997
Table 3-6 displays waste management data for 1991
and 1995-1997. Quantities of TRI chemicals that
facilities managed hi production-related waste
increased by 2.41 billion pounds, or 13.1%, from
1991 to 1997 for the "core" chemicals that were
reportable under the same definitions throughout that
period. Total production-related waste managed was
18.44 billion pounds in 1991 and 20.85 billion pounds
hi 1997. However, these totals include reporting
errors by several facilities, described earlier in this
chapter. Specifically, one facility revised its 1997 on-
site energy recovery of ethylene from 198,8 million
pounds to 13.0 million pounds. Similarly, another
facility revised its on-site energy recovery of ethylene
and propylene from a total of 95.4 million pounds in
1995 and 694.0 million pounds in 1997 to zero in
both years. Revisions by these two facilities were
made after the TRI database was "frozen" for
preparation of this report. Taking into account these.
facility revisions, total production-related waste
managed would increase from 18-44 billion pounds in
1991 to 19.98 billion pounds in 1997, an 8.3%
increase instead of the 13.1% increase shown hi Table
3-6.

"One facility, SMntech Inc. in Freeport, TX, reported on-site recycling of vinyl chloride of 200,000 pounds in 1995 and 244,000 pounds in 1996. The facility has
since revised these quantities to 200,000,000 pounds in 1995 and 244,000,000 pounds in 1996. These revisions change on-site recycling to 6345,045,573 pounds in
1995 and to 6,486,624,341 pounds in 1996. The percentage chiinge in on-site recycling changes to 2.2% for 1995-1996 and to 5.1% for 1996-1997.
*One facility, TPI Petroleum in Ardmore, OK, reported on-site energy recovery for ethylene of 82,500,000 pounds in 1995,36,250,000 pounds in 1996, and
422,000,000 pounds in 1997, The facility also reported on-site energy recovery for propylene of 12,900,000 pounds in 1995,16,300,000 pounds in 1996, and
272,000,000 pounds in 1997. The facility has since revised these quantities to zero. Another facility, Shell Chemical Co, in Geismar, LA, reported on-site energy
recovery for ethylene of 193,830,000 pounds in 1997. The facility has since revised this quantity to 13,000,000 pounds. These revisions change on-site energy
recovery to 2,591,346,098 pounds in 1995, to 2,554,666,009 pounds in 1996, and to 2,698,647,522 pounds in 1997. The percentage change in on-site energy
recovery changes to -1.4% for 1995-1996, to 5.6% for 1996-1997, and to -8.8% for 1991-1997.
"Revisions by three facilities change total production-related waste managed to 18,977,934,800 pounds in 1995, to 18,599,767,113 pounds in 1996, and to
19,976,970,368 pounds in 1997. The percent change in total production-related waste managed changes to -2.0% for 1995-1996, to 7.4% for 1996-1997, and to 8.3%
tor 1991-1997.
(One facility's correction of on-site recycling of vinyl
chloride from 200,000 pounds to 200.0 million
pounds in 1995 and from 244,000 pounds to 244.0
million pounds in 1996 does not affect the overall
increase in. on-site recycling from 1991 to 1997. The
apparent errors of seven food processing facilities in
reporting 4.00 billion pounds of on-site recycling of
n-hexane in 1995 do not affect data in Table 3-6
because n-hexane was not reportable in 1991.)
The two facilities' revisions for ethylene and
propylene affect on-site energy recovery totals. On-
site energy recovery shown in Table 3-6 increased
from 2.96 billion pounds in 1991 to 3.57 billion
pounds in 1997. Taking into account the facility
revisions, on-site energy recovery would decrease
from 2.96 billion pounds in 1991 to 2.70 billion
pounds in 1997S an 8.8% reduction instead of the
20.8% increase shown in Table 3-6,

"One facility, Shintech Inc. in Freeport, TX, reported on-site recycling of vinyl chloride of 244,000 pounds in 1996. The facility has since revised this quantity to
244,000,000 pounds. This changes on-site recycling to 6,486,624,341 pounds in 1996.
*One facility, TP1 Petroleum in Ardmore, OK, reported on-site energy recovery for ethylene of 36,250,000 pounds in 1996 and 422,000,000 pounds in 1997 and
projected 443,100,000 pounds for 1998 and 465,255,000 pounds for 1999. The facility also reported on-site energy recovery for propylene of 16,300,000.pounds in
1996 and 272,000,000 pounds in 1997 and projected 285,600,000 pounds for 1998 and 299,880,000 pounds for 1999. The facility has since revised these quantities to
zero. Another ftcility, Shell Chemical Co. in Oeismar, LA, reported on-site energy recovery for ethylene of 193,830,000 pounds in 1997 and projected 213,213,000
pounds for both 1998 and 1999. The facility has since revised these quantities to 13,000,000 pounds for each of the three-years. These revisions change on-site energy
recovery to 2,554,666,009 pounds in 1996, to 2,698,647,522 pounds in 1997, to 2,697,145,263 pounds projected for 1998, and to 2,759,743,138 pounds projected for
1999.
•Revisions by three facilities change total production-related waste managed to 18,599,767,113 pounds in 1996, to 19,976,970,368 pounds in 1997, to 19,479,985,855
pounds projected for 1998, and to 49,532,154,731 pounds projected for 1999. Distribution of waste management activities changes in 1996 to 34.9% recycled on-site,
12,9% recycled off-site, 13.7% energy recovery on-site, 2.6% energy recovery off-site, 24.0% treated on-site, 2.0% treated off-site, and 9.9% quantity released on- and
off-site; in 1997 to 34.1% recycled on-site, 11.7% recycled off-site, 13.5% energy recovery on-site, 2.4% energy recovery off-site, 27.0% treated on-site, 1.9% treated
off-site, and 9.3% quantity released on- and off-site; for 1998 (projected) to 33.6% recycled on-site, 11.9% recycled off-site, 13,8% energy recovery on-site, 2.3%
energy recovery off-site, 27.4% treated on-site, 1.9% treated off-site, and 9,1% quantity released on- and off-site; and for 1999 (projected) to 33.7% recycled on-site,
12.1% recycled off-site, 14.1% energy recovery on-site, 2,3% ener^ recovery off-site, 27.0% treated on-site, 1.9% treated off-site, and 8.9% quantity released on- and
off-site.
The largest absolute increase among waste
management types occurred in on-site treatment,
which rose from 4.37 billion pounds in 1991 to 5.39
billion pounds in 1997, an increase of 1.03 billion
pounds (23.5%). The largest percentage increase
occurred in off-site recycling, which increased 33.4%
from 1.76 billion pounds in 1991 to 2.35 billion
pounds in 1997 (a 831.2-million-pound increase).
Two other waste management practices also showed
increases: Facilities reported 5.99 billion pounds of
on-site recycling in 1991 and 6.82 billion pounds in
1997, a 13.9% increase. They also reported 444.0
million pounds of off-site energy recovery in 1991
and 482.2 million pounds in 1997, an 8.6% increase.
From 1991 to 1997, quantities released on- and of£-
site decreased by one-fourth (25.5%) from 2.49
billion pounds to 1.85 billion pounds. The only other
reduction was reported in off-site treatment, which
declined from 436.6 million pounds to 387.9 million
pounds, an 11.1% decrease.

Chapters— Year-to-Year Comparison of Toxics Release Inventory Data
Projected Quantities of TRI Chemicals
Managed in Waste, 1991 and 1995-
1999
TRI facilities projected relatively small reductions
from 1997 levels in the production-related waste they
expected to manage through 1999. As shown in Table
3-7, total production-related waste managed was
expected to decline from 20.85 billion pounds in 1997
to 20.50 billion pounds in 1999. (These data cover the
"core" chemicals that were reportable under the same
definitions in years 1991-1997.) Facility revisions
discussed throughout this chapter would change these
totals to 19.98 billion pounds in 1997 and a projected
19.53 billion pounds in 1999. This would change the
overall reduction expected from 1997 to 1999 from a
projected 1.7% decrease to a 2.2% decrease.
As discussed in Chapter 2, information req[uired by
the Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) of 1990 can help
facilities and the public assess progress in pollution
prevention and in the management of TRI chemicals
in waste. The data can be used to analyze trends in
total quantities of TRI chemicals hi waste to see if
facilities are reducing the amount of waste generated.
The data also can be used to examine trends in the
quantities of TRI chemicals undergoing ea-ch waste
management method to see whether facilities are
making more environmentally preferable choices as
established in the waste management hierarchy.
Taking into account the facility revisions, the quantity
released on- and off-site would show a decrease from
13.5% of total production-related waste that facilities
managed in 1991 to 9.3% in 1997. This was the
largest change hi the distribution of waste
management methods. Reducing the proportion of
TRI chemicals in waste that facilities release indicates
improvement in their waste management practices.
Releases represent the.least desirable outcome in
terms of the waste management hierarchy, described
in Chapter 2. Facilities projected a small further
decrease in quantity released as a percentage of total
production-related waste managed, to 8.9% by 1999.
However, facilities projected no significant
improvement from 1997 to 1999 in,the way they
manage TRI chemicals in waste, recycling on-site
about one-third (34.1% in 1997 and 33.7% in 1999)
of the total and treating on-site about one-quarter
(27.0% in both 1997 and 1999) of the total, again
taking into account facility revisions previously
described. Approximately 14% of total production-
related waste managed would be combusted on-site
for energy recovery in both years. Percentages in
Table 3-7 show that these represent little overall
change from the 1991 distribution. The most
significant difference from 1991 to 1997 would be an
increase in the percentage of production-related waste
treated on-site. In the waste management hierarchy,
however, treating toxic chemicals in waste is
preferable only to releasing them.
Chemical-specific Release
and Waste Management Data
Table 3-8 presents on- and off-site releases and waste
management data for all TRI chemicals on the current
TRI chemical list for which reports have been
received in at least one of the years 1988 and 1995-
1997. Pesticides are denoted by an asterisk (*) next to
the chemical name. These are chemicals that are
currently active ingredients in EPA's Pesticide
Product Information System (all pesticide products
imported and/or manufactured in the US) and/or
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act
(FIFRA) Active Ingredients, including Special
review, Canceled/Denied or Suspended, and
Restricted Use Pesticides.

"•Seven facilities in the food processing industry (SIC code 20) reported from 500 million pounds to 1 billion pounds each in on-site recycling of n-hexane in 1995,
for a total 4,000,192,215 billion pounds. In 1996, these facilities reported no on-site recycling of n-hexane. On their 1996 Form Rs, these facilities also reported zero
for on-site recycling of n-hexane for the prior year (1995). However, they have not revised their 1995 Form Rs. The apparent facility errors change on-site recycling
of n-hexane to 125,507,309 pounds and total production-related waste to 312,839,739 pounds.

Chapter 4
Industry Reporting to the Toxics
Release Inventory
This chapter provides an overview of 1997 TRI data
by industry sector, for the 20 manufacturing sectors
required to report to TRI. As described in Chapter 1,
TRI will expand to include seven additional industry
sectors beginning with the 1998 reporting year. Box
4-1 lists the manufacturing industries by Standard
Industrial Classification (SIC) code. Box 4-2 explains
SIC codes and their use in TRI.
This chapter summarizes release and other waste
management data by industry for 1997, comparable to
the overviews presented in Chapter 2. It then
compares the last three reporting years (1995,1996,
and 1997) and compares 1988 with the three recent
years. Because some types of data were not collected
in 1988, this chapter also reviews waste management
data for 1991 and 1995-1997. These multiple-year
analyses correspond to overviews presented in
Chapter 3. The discussion of "core" chemical lists, in
the "Introduction" to Chapter 3, is important for
Box 4-1. Standard Industrial Classification (SIC!) Codes
accurate interpretation of these year-to-year
comparisons because of the significant changes in
TRI over time.
TRI Data by Industry, 1997
In 1997, across all industries, 21,490 facilities
submitted 71,670 forms to TRI, as shown in Table 4-
1. The chemical manufacturing industry submitted the
largest number of forms, 21,044 forms or 29.4% of
the total. The fabricated metals industry ranked
second with 7,430 forms, and the primary metals
industry ranked third with 6,777 forms, both
approximately 10% of the total. Facilities that
reported more than one SIC code to describe their
operations and products (see Box 4-2) submitted the
fourth-largest number of forms. This "multiple-codes"
group submitted 4,552 forms, 6.4% of the total.

^Chapter 4 - Industry Reporting to the Toxics Release Inventory
Box 4-2. An Explanation of SIC Codes and TRi
An Explanation of SIC Codes and TRI
SIC codes are the Standard Industrial Classification codes used throughout the federal government to classify economic activity by
industry. Facilities in the manufacturing sectors, that is, SIC codes 20 through 39, are required to report to TRI. (As explained in
Chapter 1, additional industries will begin reporting with the 1998 reporting year.) Box 4-1 lists the two-digit SIC codes in
manufacturing and the primary activities of the industry sectors they designate.
On TRI Form Rs and Form A certification statements, facilities report the four-digit SIC codes that define their operations. A
facility might report, for example, SIC code 2873, nitrogenous fertilizers. These industries are grouped into broader categories at
the three-digit and two-digit SIC code levels. For example, nitrogenous fertilizers falls into the agricultural chemicals group at the
three-digit level (SIC code 287) and the chemicals and allied products major group (SIC code 28). Tables in this chapter present
data aggregated at the two-digit level.
Multiple SIC Codes: TRI facilities may report up to six four-digit SIC codes that describe their operations. They submit one Form
R or Form A certification statement for each chemical they are reporting. If all the processes or operations that are associated with
a facility's releases or other waste management of a TRI chemical can be described by one SIC code, then only one SIC code is
reported on the form. If several economic activities, designated by different SIC codes, describe the specific operations at a facility
that are associated with releases or other waste management of a TRI chemical, then the facility will report those SIC codes (up to
six) on the form it submits for that chemical.
Industrial facilities often conduct inter-related operations. They may, for example, manufacture distinct products using common or
related feedstocks. Such products may be classified in similar but separate categories in the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)
system. Thus, many forms submitted to TRI contain more than one industrial classification. When TRI data are analyzed by
industry—-that is, by SIC code—forms that report more than one SIC code must be categorized separately because they do not fall
into the individual industry groups.
The "multiple-codes" category represents forms that report in more than one two-digit SIC code. For example, a facility may refine
petroleum (SIC code 29) and then use that feedstock in the manufacture of chemicals (SIC code 28); it will report SIC codes in
both of these industries on its TRI forms (such as SIC codes 2911, petroleum refining, and 2869, industrial organic chemicals). On
forms with more than one SIC code, any SIC code that is not within manufacturing (that is, not within the SIC code range 20 to 39)
is ignored when assigning a form to an industry category. For example, a form with the SIC code 2642 (manufacture of envelopes)
and SIC code 5112 (wholesale trade — stationery and office supplies) would be included in SIC code 26.
Federal Facilities: Federal facilities report the SIC codes that describe their activity; these may or may not fall within the
manufacturing categories, SIC codes 20 to 39, that have reported to TRI since its inception. (As explained in Chapter 1, additional
industries will begin reporting with the 1998 reporting year.) Tables in this chapter incorporate amounts submitted by federal
facilities in the SIC codes they reported, just as is done for private sector facilities. In each table, a separate summary of federal
facilities' data is presented as well, following the totals.

On- and Off-site Releases, 1997
On- and off-site releases totaled 2.58 billion pounds
in 1997, and two industries reported more than half of
that total. As shown in Table 4-2, the chemical
manufacturing industry reported 797.5 million pounds
of total releases, and the primary metals industry
reported 694.7 million pounds. These amounts
represented 30.9% and 27.0%, respectively, of all on-
and off-site releases reported to TRI, as illustrated in
Figure 4-1. The paper products industry ranked third
for total on- and off-site releases, behind chemicals
and primary metals, with 233.5 million pounds, or
9.1% of the national total.
Three other industry groups reported more than 100
million pounds each: the multiple-codes group ranked
fourth among all industries with 137.6 million pounds
(5.3%), plastics manufacture ranked fifth with 108.5
million pounds (4.2%), and the transportation
equipment industry ranked sixth with 102.1 million
pounds (4.0%).
Figure 4-2 displays on- and off-site releases for the
industries with the largest total releases.
On-site Releases
The chemicals, primary metals, and paper products
industries, which reported the largest total on- and
off-site releases in 1997, also reported the largest on-
site releases. Table 4-2 also presents on-site releases
by industry.

Note: Off-site Releases from Section 6 (off-site transfers to disposal) of Form R. Off-site Releases include metals and metal compounds transferred off-site for
solidification/stabilization and for wastewater treatment, including to POTWs.
"'Storage only" (disposal code Ml0) indicates that the toxic chemical is sent off-site for storage because there is no known disposal method. Amounts reported as
transferred to "storage only" are included as a form of disposal (off-site release). See Box 2-2.
Beginning in reporting year 1997, transfers to solidification/stabilization of metals and metal compounds (waste management code M41) are reported separately from
transfers to solidification/stabilization of non-metal TRI chemicals (waste management code M40). Because this treatment method prepares a metal for disposal, but
docs not destroy it, such transfers arc included as a form of disposal (off-site release), See Box 2-3. Some facilities erroneously reported metals and metal compounds
using waste management code M40; in this report, such amounts have been included in solidification/stabilization of metals and metal compounds.
'Beginning in reporting year 1997, transfers to wastewater treatment (excluding POTWs) of metals and metal compounds (waste management code M62) are reported
separately from transfers to wastewater treatment of non-metal TRI chemicals (waste management code M61). Because wastewater treatment does not destroy metals,
such transfers arc included as a form of disposal (off-site release). See Box 2-3. Some facilities erroneously reported metals and metal compounds using waste
treatment code M61; in this report, such amounts have been included in transfers of metals and metal compounds to wastewater treatment.
''Reported as discharges to POTWs in Section 6.1 of Form R. EPA considers transfers of metals and metal compounds to POTWs as an off-site release because sewage
treatment docs not destroy the metal content of the waste material.
The chemical manufacturing industry ranked first for
on-site releases with 742.6 million pounds. Chemical
industry releases included 342.2 million pounds of air
emissions, 106.0 million pounds of surface water
discharges, and 215.8 million pounds of underground
injection—the largest amounts in these categories.
The chemical manufacturing industry's largest
releases to air were point source emissions of 67.6
million pounds of ammonia, 37.4 million pounds of
carbon disulfide, and 28.5 million pounds of
methanol. The industry's discharges to surface waters
included 55.2 million pounds of nitrate compounds
and 43.5 million pounds of phosphoric acid. The
chemicals with the largest amounts of underground
injection (to Class I wells) by chemical manufacturing
facilities were nitrate compounds (40.6 million
pounds) and ammonia (29.0 million pounds).
The primary metals industry ranked second for on-site
releases with 405.9 million pounds. The primary
metals industry reported 225.1 million pounds of on-
site land releases, more than any other industry. Most

Note: Off-site Releases from Section 6 (off-site transfers to disposal) of Form R. Off-site Releases include metals and metal compounds transferred off-site for
solidification/stabilization and for wastewater treatment, including to POTWs.
'"Unknown" (disposal code M99) indicates that a facility is not. aware of the type of waste management used for the toxic chemical that is sent off-site. Amounts
reported as "unknown" transfers are treated as a form of disposal (off-site release).
of the sector's on-site land releases consisted of "other
disposal" (105.1 million pounds, including 55.3
million pounds of zinc compounds and 25.1 million
pounds of copper compounds). Among other on-site
release types, the primary metals industry's largest
reported amount consisted of point source air
emissions of 59.6 million pounds of chlorine.
The paper products sector ranked third for on-site
releases with 228.8 million pounds, principally in air
emissions (193.8 million pounds). This included point
source emissions of 100.3 million pounds of
methanol.
Off-site Releases
TRI facilities reported 461.1 million pounds of off-
site releases (transfers to disposal) in 1997, also
shown in Table 4-2. As explained in Chapter 2, these
releases include transfers of metals to solidification/
stabilization, to wastewater treatment (excluding
POTWs), and to POTWs. Table 4-3 further examines
off-site releases by industry in 1997.
The primary metals industry reported off-site releases
totaling 288.7 million pounds, nearly one third
(62.6%) of the total. This amount included 146.7
million pounds of listed TRI chemicals, primarily
metals, transferred to landfills/disposal surface :
impoundments and 120.3 million pounds of metals

and metal compounds transferred to solidification/
stabilization. These two types of transfers constituted
92.5% of all off-site releases reported by the primary
metals industry. The industry reported transferring
70.6 million pounds of zinc compounds and 22.3
million pounds of zinc (fume or dust) to
solidification/stabilization. Zinc compounds was also
the chemical with the primary metals industry's
largest transfers to landfills/disposal surface
impoundments—75.3 million pounds.
The chemical manufacturing industry ranked second
for off-site releases in 1997, reporting 54.8 million
pounds. This amount represented 11.9% of the total
for all industries. The chemical manufacturing
industry's largest off-site releases were transfers of
8.9 million pounds of manganese compounds and 3.9
million pounds of lead compounds to landfills/
disposal surface impoundments.
Two other industry groups reported more than 25
million pounds each: fabricated metals with 29.2
million pounds (6.3% of the total) and the multiple-
codes group with 25.4 million pounds (5.5%).

Note: Data from Section 8 of Form R, Forms that reported more than one 2-digit SIC code within the range 20 to 39 are assigned to the "multiple" category,
*One facility, Shell Chemicai Co. in Geismar, LA, reported on -site energy recovery of 193,830,000 pounds of ethylene in 1997. The facility has since revised this
quantity to 13,000,000 pounds. The rank of Chemicals (SIC code 28) remains unchanged.
••One facility, TPI Petroleum in Ardmore, OK, reported on-site energy recovery of 422,000,000 pounds of ethylene and 272,000,000 pounds of propylene in 1997.
The facility has since revised these quantities to zero. Petroleum (SIC code 29) changes in rank from third to sixth.
In both industries, the largest type of transfer was to
landfills/disposal surface impoundments: 17.3 million
pounds in the fabricated metals industry and 14.8
million pounds on forms reporting multiple SIC
codes,
TRI Chemicals Managed in Waste,
1997
Facilities reported managing a total of 24.73 billion
pounds of TRI chemicals in waste in 1997, as shown
in Table 4-4. Figure 4-3 shows production-related
waste reported by the industries with the largest totals.
However, two facilities made substantial revisions in
reporting of on-site energy recovery after (he TRI
database was "frozen" for preparation of this report.
One facility in SIC code 28 (the chemical
manufacturing industry) reported 193.8 million
pounds of on-site energy recovery of ethylene in
1997, but subsequently revised this quantity to 13.0
million pounds. A facility in SIC code 29 (the
petroleum industry) reported on-site energy recovery
of 422.0 million pounds of ethylene and 272,0 million
pounds of propylene in 1997. This facility has revised
both quantities to zero. Taking these revisions into
account, production-related waste managed would
total 23.85 billion pounds in 1997.
The chemical manufacturing industry reported
managing 11.37 billion pounds of total production-
related waste in 1997. With the facility revision for .
on-site energy recovery of ethylene, the chemical
manufacturing industry's total would change to 11.19
billion pounds, still the largest among all industries.
The chemical manufacturing industry reported the
largest quantities in all waste management categories
except off-site recycling. Just over 40% of the
chemical manufacturing industry's production-related
waste was recycled on-site (4.56 billion pounds), and
4-11
-------
Chapter 4 - Industry Reporting to the Toxics Release Inventory
approximately 30% was treated on-site (3.42 billion
pounds). The revised report by one facility would
change the on-site energy recovery total from 1.71
billion pounds to 1.53 billion pounds (approximately
14% of the total).
The primary metals industry ranked second for total
production-related waste managed with 3.73 billion
pounds (15.1% of the total). On-site recycling
accounted for the largest portion of this total, with
1.48 billion pounds (second among all industries
behind chemical manufacturing). The primary metals
industry reported the largest quantity of off-site
recycling (989.9 million pounds). It also reported the
second-largest quantity released on- and off-site
(634.7 million pounds).
The petroleum industry reported 1.63 billion pounds
of production-related waste, third among all
industries. The bulk of the petroleum industry's
reporting consisted of 1.17 billion pounds of on-site
energy recovery. However, as noted earlier, one
facility in the petroleum industry reported 694.0
million pounds of on-site energy recovery of ethylene
and propylene, but has since revised its forms to zero
on-site energy recovery for these chemicals. Taking
into account the revisions, the petroleum industry's
on-site energy recovery would total 475.4 million
pounds and its production-related waste would total
937,5 million pounds. With the revisions, the
petroleum industry would rank sixth for total
production-related waste managed in 1997.
The paper products industry reported 1.51 billion
pounds of production-related waste managed. The
majority of the paper products industry's reporting
consisted of 921.4 million pounds of on-site
treatment, the second-largest quantity reported for on-
site treatment.
Production-related waste exceeded 1 billion pounds in
one other industry group: the multiple-codes group
reported 1.38 billion pounds. On these reporting
forms, on-site recycling totaled 505.8 million pounds
and on-site treatment totaled 504.1 million pounds,
the largest waste management quantities in the
multiple-codes group.
Economic Overview, by Industry, 1997
Although TRI data present significant information
about toxic chemicals that are released on- and off-
site, managed in waste on- and off-site, and
transferred off-site for further waste management,
they also have limitations. Chapter 1 discusses some
of these. One such limitation is that TRI data alone do
not distinguish industry-specific factors that influence
the chemicals, amounts, and types of releases and
other waste management facilities report. Table 4-5
presents two basic economic measures (employment
and dollar value of sales, receipts, or shipments) that
suggest the relative size of the industrial sectors that
report to TRI (additional sectors will begin reporting
in 1999 for the 1998 reporting year). Economic
analyses make use of data on the value of production
(sales, receipts, or shipments) as one way to indicate
the size of industrial sectors, because no direct
comparison can be drawn among products of the
sectors. This value provides a rough common measure
between, say, production of 10,000 pairs of shoes and
production of 500,000 loaves of bread.
Table 4-5 also includes total production-related waste
managed that TRI facilities reported for 1997, to
allow approximate comparisons with the economic
activity of the industry sectors. Percentages indicate
the relative contribution of each industry to total
employment and production and to the total quantity
of TRI chemicals in production-related waste
managed. The ratio of total production-related waste
managed to production value (sales, receipts, or
shipments), in the last column, compares the reported
TRI quantities for each industry with that industry's
production level for 1997. Many factors influence the
differences in TRI reporting among industries.

Relating TRI quantities to the dollar value of each
industry's products takes into account one measure of
the differences among industries in their level of
production in 1997.
In 1997, as shown in Table 4-5, chemical
manufacturing accounted for 4.8% of manufacturing
employment, 10.2% of the value of manufacturing
production (sales, receipts, or shipments), find 48.9%
of TRI total production-related waste managed.
Chemical manufacturing also had the highest ratio of
production-related waste managed to production
value (sales, receipts, or shipments), 28,110 pounds
per $1 million value. Revisions by one facility,
described above, would change the 1997 production-
related waste managed by the chemical manufacturing
industry from 11.37 billion pounds to 11.19 billion
pounds; this would also change the ratio to 27,663
pounds per $1 million. The primary metals industry
had the second largest ratio of production-related
waste managed to production value, with 19,336
pounds per $1 million, and the paper industry ranked
third with 9,457 pounds per $1 million.

Chapter4-Industry Reporting to the Toxics Release Inventory
Year-by-Year Comparisons, by
Industry
Comparisons of TRI data across reporting years are
made on the basis of "core" chemicals that were
reportable in all years with the same reporting
definitions. This assures that apparent increases or
decreases from one year to another are not the result
of changes in the list of TRI chemicals. Chapter 3
explains the multi-year comparisons; an
understanding of these issues is essential for accurate
interpretation of the multi-year data presented in this
chapter.
Progress is measured from TRI's designated baseline
year, 1988, for on-site releases and off-site transfers
for treatment and disposal. These are the types that
have been collected since TRI began. Additional on-
and off-site waste management data, authorized under
the federal Pollution Prevention Act of 1990, have
been collected since 1991, the baseline year for waste
management data.
On- and Off-site Releases, 1995-1997
Table 4-6 summarizes on- and off-site releases by
industry for 1995,1996, and 1997. From 1995 to
1997, total on- and off-site releases decreased from
2.62 billion pounds to 2.58 billion pounds, a
reduction of 1.5%. The chemical manufacturing
industry, which reported the largest total releases in
all three years, also reported the largest absolute
reduction, from 846.6 million pounds to 797.5 million
pounds. The multiple-codes group ranked second for
absolute decreases, from 158.9 million pounds in
1995 to 137.6 million pounds in 1997. The'
transportation equipment industry reported the third-
largest absolute decrease, from 122.6 million pounds
to 102.1 million pounds. In percentage terms, the
chemical industry reported a 5.8% reduction, the
multiple-codes group reported a 13.4% reduction, and
the transportation equipment industry reported a
16.8% reduction.
The primary metals industry, which reported the
second-largest total in all three years, reported the
largest absolute increase in total releases from 1995 to
1997. The primary metals industry reported releases
totaling 565.1 million pounds in 1995 and 694.7
million pounds in 1997. The stone, clay, and glass
industry ranked second for increases (behind primary
metals), increasing from 36.8 million pounds in 1995
to 43.2 million pounds in 1997. The petroleum
industry ranked third, increasing from 65.5 million
pounds to 69.3 million pounds. In percentage terms,
these changes represented a 22.9% increase by the
primary metals industry, a 17.6% increase by the
stone/clay/glass industry, and a 5.8% increase by the
petroleum industry.
Industries recording large percentage changes, as
shown in Table 4-6, were among those reporting
smaller amounts of total on- and off-site releases. The
furniture industry reported the largest percentage
reduction—40.8%—from 42.4 million pounds in 1995
to 25.1 million pounds in 1997. The tobacco industry
showed the largest percentage increase — 113.8% —
from 2.0 million pounds in 1997 to 4.3 million
pounds in 1999.
On- and Off-site Releases, 1988 and
1995-1997
From 1988 to 1997, total on- and off-site releases
reported to TRI decreased from 3.40 billion pounds to
1.94 billion pounds (or 42.8%), as shown in Table 4-
7. All industry sectors recorded reductions in total
releases of the 1988-1997 core chemicals.
The chemical manufacturing industry reported 1.06
billion pounds in 1988 and 519.1 million pounds in
1997, the largest absolute reduction among all
industries. This amounted to a 50.8% reduction by the
chemical manufacturing industry. The multiple-codes
group ranked second for absolute decreases, declining
from 311.6 million pounds to 106.2 million pounds (a
65.9% reduction).

Note: On-site Releases from Section 5 of Form R, Off-site Releases are from Section 6 (transfers off-site to disposal) of Form R. Off-site Releases include metals
and metal compounds transferred off-site for solidification/stabilization and for wastewater treatment, including to POTWs. Forms that reported more than one 2-digit
SIC code within the range 20 to 39 are assigned to the "multiple" category. Forms with no 2-digit S!C code within the range 20 to 39 are assigned to the "no codes 20-
39" category.
Two other industries reported decreases of more than
100 million pounds each: The transportation
equipment industry reported the third-largest
decrease, from 215,0 million pounds to 96.8 million
pounds, and the electrical equipment industry
reported the fourth-largest decrease, from 134.0
million pounds to 26.2 million pounds. In percentage
terms, the transportation equipment industry's total
on- and off-site releases decreased 55.0% and the
electrical equipment industry's total decreased 80.5%,
which was the second largest percentage reduction.
The largest percentage reduction (85.7%) was
reported hi the measuring instruments and
photographic equipment industry, which reported
55.8 million pounds in 1988 and 8.0 million pounds
in 1997.
TRI Chemicals Managed in Waste,
1991, 1995,1997-1999
Projected Quantities of TRI Chemicals
Managed in Waste. 1997-1999
TRI facilities projected a 1.2% decrease from 24.73
billion pounds of total production-related waste
managed in 1997 to 24.43 billion pounds in 1999, as
shown in Table 4-8. Revisions by two facilities,
previously described, would change these totals to
23.85 billion pounds in 1997 and 23.47 billion pounds
projected for 1999, and the percentage change
projected for 1997 to 1999 would be a 1.6%
reduction. (As described in Chapter 2, on each Form
R that it submits, a facility reports actual waste
management quantities for'the current and prior years
and projected quantities for the next two years.)

"One facility in SIC code 28, Shell Chemical Co. in Geismar, LA, reported on-site energy recovery for ethylene of 193,830,000 pounds in 1997 and projected
213,213,000 pounds for both 1998 and 1999. The facility has since revised these quantities to 13,000,000 pounds each. In SIC code 28, Chemicals, total production-

percentage change in total production-related waste changes to -2.4% for 1997-1998 and to -2.3% for 1997-1999,
k One facility in SIC code 29, TPI Petroleum in Ardmore, OK, reported on-site energy recovery for ethylene of 422,000,000 pounds in 1997 and projected
443,100,000 pounds for 1998 and 465,255,000 pounds for 1999. This facility also reported on-site energy recovery for propylene of 272,000,000 pounds in 1997 and
projected 285,600,000 pounds for 1998 and 299,880,000 pounds for 1999. The facility has since revised these quantities to zero. In SIC code 29, Petroleum, total
production-related waste changes to 937,464,252 pounds in 1997, to 919,450,884 pounds projected for 1998, and to 924,614,139 pounds projected for 1999. In SIC
code 29, the percentage change in total production-related waste changes to -1.9% projected for 1997-1998 and to -1.4% projected for 1997-1999.
"Revisions by two facilities (in SIC codes 28 and 29, respectively) change total production-related waste managed to 23,850,566,745 pounds in 1997, to
23,403,721,510 projected pounds for 1998, and to 23,468,052,562 pounds projected for 1999. The percentage change in total production-related waste changes to

in 1999 (a 1.4% projected reduction). With these
revisions, the petroleum industry would have the
eighth-largest decrease rather than the second-largest
increase.
The stone, clay, and glass industry and the primary
metals industry projected the next largest absolute
increases. In the stone, clay, and glass industry,
facilities projected an increase in production-related
waste managed from 750.3 million pounds in 1997 to
785.0 million pounds in 1999. In the primary metals
industry, the projected increase was from 3.73 billion
pounds in 1997 to 3.77 billion pounds in 1999. In
percentage terms, these represented projected
increases of 4.6% and 0.9%, respectively. Industries
projecting large percentage reductions, as shown in
Table 4-8, were among those with generally smaller
quantities for total production-related waste. The
apparel industry projected the largest relative
decrease—25.2% (from 2.0 million pounds in 1995 to
1.5 million pounds in 1997), followed by the textiles
industry with a projected decrease of 19.6% (from
69.6 million pounds to 55.9 million pounds).

Chapter 4 - Industry Reporting to the Toxics Release Inventory
Quantities of TRI Chemicals in Waste,
1995-1997
As shown in Table 4-9, facilities reported managing
27,49 billion pounds of production-related waste in
1995 and 24.73 billion pounds in 1997. However,
facility errors and revisions would substantially
change these totals. As noted above, two facilities
revised their submissions after TRI data were "frozen"
for preparation of this report Another facility in the
chemical manufacturing industry reported on-site
recycling for vinyl chloride of 200,000 pounds in
1995 and 244,000 pounds in 1996. This facility has
since revised these quantities to 200.0 million pounds
and 244.0 million pounds, respectively (also revised
after the TRI database was "frozen"). Furthermore, in
1995, seven food processing facilities (SIC code 20)
reported on-site recycling of 500 million to 1 billion
pounds each of n-hexane, a chemical added to TRI in
the 1995 reporting year. Together, their 1995 on-site
recycling of n-hexane totaled 4.00 billion pounds. In
1996 and ,1997, these facilities reported no on-site
recycling of n-hexane. TRI facilities report
production-related waste quantities for both the prior
year and current year (along with projections for the
following two years). As noted in the 1996 TRI Data
Release1 these facilities reported on their 1996 TRI
Form Rs zero amounts of on-site recycling of n-
hexane for the prior year (1995), but did not revise
their 1995 submissions. Such changes generally
indicate that facilities have revised their interpretation
of on-site recycling. Currently, there are no TRI
regulatory definitions of recycling, and facilities may
use their own interpretations for purposes of reporting
to TRI. Some facilities have chosen to restrict their
interpretation of on-site recycling to cover a very
limited set of activities. Therefore, quantities that may
have been reported as amounts undergoing waste
management activities hi early years are not reported
on the Form R in subsequent years and are, thus, not
in the TRI database. These changes in interpretations
do not represent a change in guidance by EPA on how
to report recycling. Because the seven food
processing facilities did not revise their 1995
submissions, the large amounts of on-site recycling
they reported in 1995 remain in the TRI data.
If the 4.00 billion pounds of n-hexane on-site
recycling by food industry facilities are excluded
from the amounts for 1995 and the facility revisions
are incorporated into the data for 1996 and 1997, the
totals for production-related waste managed would
change to 23.59 billion pounds in 1995,22.34 billion
pounds in 1996, and 23.85 billion pounds in 1997, a
1.1% increase between 1995 and 1997 instead of the
10.0% reduction shown in Table 4-9.
While the food industry recorded the largest absolute
reduction from 1995 to 1997, if the 4.00 billion
pounds of n-hexane are excluded from the 1995
amounts, then the primary metals industry had the
largest absolute reduction from 1995 to 1997 in total
production-related waste managed. The primary
metals industry reported 4.35 billion pounds of total
production-related waste managed in 1995 and 3.73
billion pounds in 1997. The multiple-codes group
ranked second, reporting 1.90 billion pounds in 1995
and 1.38 billion pounds in 1997. In percentage terms,
these represented a 14.3% decrease by the primary
metals industry and a 27.1% decrease by the multiple-
codes group.
The plastics industry ranked third for absolute
reductions in total production-related waste managed,
with 540.5 million pounds in 1995 and 290.7 million
pounds in 1997 (a 46.2% reduction). The paper
industry ranked fourth, reporting 1.76 billion pounds
in 1995 and 1.51 billion pounds in 1997 (a 14.0%
reduction).

'Seven facilities in the food processing industry (SIC code 20) reported from 500 million pounds to 1 billion pounds each in on-site recycling of n-hexane in 1995, for
a total 4,000,192,215 billion pounds. In 1996, these facilities reported noon-site recycling of n-hexane. On their 1996 Form Rs, these facilities also reported zero for
on-site recycling of n-hexane for the prior year (1995). However, they have not revised their 1995 Form Rs. In SIC code 20, total production-related waste changes to
96,534,997 pounds in 1995. The percentage change in total production-related waste changes to 286.8% for 1995-1996, to 42.3% for 1996-1997, and to 450.3% for
1995-1997.
bOne facility in SIC code 28, Shintech Inc. in Freeport, TX, reported on-site recycling for vinyl chloride of 200,000 pounds in 1995 and 244,000 pounds in 1996. The
facility has since revised these quantities to 200,000,000 pounds in 1995 and 244,000,000 pounds in 1996. Another facility, Shell Chemical Co. in Geismar, LA,
reported 193,830,000 pounds of on-site energy recovery of ethylene in 1997. The facility has since revised this quantity to 13,000,000 pounds. In SIC code 28, total

and'422,000,000 pounds in 1997. This facility also reported ori-site energy recovery for propylene of 12,900,000 pounds in 1995, 16,300,000 pounds in 1996, and
272,000,000 pounds in 1997. The facility has since revised these quantities to zero. In SIC code 29, Petroleum, total production-related waste changes to 951,753,152

'Chapter 4- Industry Reporting to the Toxics Release Inventory
The chemical manufacturing industry reported the
largest absolute increase, from 10.12 billion pounds in
1995 to 11.37 billion pounds in 1997 (a 12.3%
increase), as shown in Table 4-9. Facility revisions
previously discussed would change the totals for the
chemical manufacturing industry to 10.32 billion
pounds in 1995 and 11.19 billion pounds in 1997 (an
8.4% increase), but would not alter the industry
rankings.
The lumber industry reported the second-largest
absolute increase in total production-related waste
managed, with 122.3 million pounds in 1995 and
975.9 million pounds in 1997. This was also the
largest percentage increase—698.1%. Four facilities in
the lumber industry, owned by the same parent
company, reported large increases in waste
management, all involving creosote. Two of the
facilities attributed their increases to increased
production, one cited an increase in the quantity of
wastewater at the facility but did not explain that
change, and the fourth declined to explain its
increased waste management quantities.
The largest of the facility reporting issues discussed
above—on-site recycling of n-hexane reported in 1995
by seven food-processing facilities—would change the
food industry's apparent ranking as the industry with
the largest absolute and relative reduction from 1995
to 1997 in total production-related waste managed.
The food industry's total production-related waste
would change from 4.10 billion pounds, as shown in
Table 4-9, to 96.5 million pounds in 1995, and the
industry's total would increase by 450.3% to 531.2
million pounds in 1997. This would rank as the third-
largest absolute increase and the second-largest
percentage increase among all industries. This
increase was largely attributable to a food-processing
facility that came on-line during 1996. This facility
did not report for n-hexane in 1995, but reported 77.5
million pounds of on-site recycling of n-hexane in
1996 and 220.6 million pounds in 1997. The facility
contact stated that the facility began operation in
August 1996 and was in full operation during 1997.
Quantities of TRI Chemicals in Waste. 1991
and 1995-1997
As shown in Table 4-10, total production-related
waste managed rose from 18.44 billion pounds in
1991 to 20.85 billion pounds in 1997, a 13.1%
increase. Late revisions by reporting facilities,
discussed above, would change these amounts.
Taking these revisions into account, production-
related waste managed for the 1991-1997 "core"
chemicals would total 19.98 billion pounds in 1997,
and the percentage increase from 1991 to 1997 would
change to 8.3%. (Apparent errors in reporting of n-
hexane by facilities in the food industry do not affect
data presented in Table 4-10 because n-hexane was
added to TRI in 1995.)
The multiple-codes group reported the largest
absolute reduction from 1991 to 1997 in total
production-related waste managed. These forms
totaled 1.95 billion pounds of production-related
waste in 1995 and 1.17 billion pounds in 1997. In
percentage terms, this represented a 39.7% decrease.
Although the petroleum industry appeared to have a
large increase (from 1.17 billion pounds in 1991 to
1.48 billion pounds in 1997), revisions by one facility
in this industry for on-site energy recovery of
ethylene and propylene, noted above, would change
the petroleum industry's rank to second for absolute
decreases. These revisions would change the
petroleum industry's 1997 total to 789.8 million
pounds, and the percentage change from 1991 to 1997
would change from a 26.7% increase to a 32.6%
decrease.
The stone, clay, and glass industry ranked third
(following the multiple-codes group and the
petroleum industry) for absolute decreases with 953.1
million pounds in 1991 and 717.9 million pounds in
1997. The plastics industry ranked fourth, decreasing
from 457.2 million pounds to 263.0 million pounds.
These represented percentage reductions of 24.7%
and 42.5%, respectively.

Chapter 4- Industry Reporting to the Toxics Release Inventory
The largest percentage reductions involved industries
with small totals. The tobacco industry reported 51.4
million pounds of total production-related waste in
1991 and 211,000 pounds in 1997, a reduction of
99.6%. The leather industry reported 18.0 million
pounds in 1991 and 6.4 million pounds in 1997, a
reduction of 64.2%.
The largest absolute increase in production-related
waste from 1991 to 1997 was reported by the
chemical manufacturing industry, from 7.35 billion
pounds to 9.14 billion pounds. As noted earlier, one
facility in this industry revised its quantity of on-site
energy recovery of ethylene after the data were
"frozen" for preparation of this report. In addition,
another facility in SIC code 28 similarly revised its
reports for on-site recycling of vinyl chloride (from
200,000 pounds to 200.0 million pounds in 1995 and
from 244,000 pounds to 244.0 million pounds in
1996).
With these revisions, the chemical manufacturing
industry's production-related waste managed would
increase from 7.35 billion pounds in 1991 to 8.95
billion pounds in 1997, still the largest absolute
increase among all industries. The percentage increase
for 1991 to 1997 would change from 24.2% to 21.7%.
The primary metals industry reported the second-
largest absolute increase from 1991 to 1997 in total
production-related waste managed, from 2.32 million
pounds to 3.37 billion pounds. This was an increase
of 45.1%. The lumber industry reported the third-
largest increase, from 68.0 billion pounds in 1991 to
972.4 million pounds in 1997, or 904.4 million
pounds. This amounted to a 1,329.8% increase by the
lumber industry, by far the largest percentage increase
among all industries. As noted earlier, four facilities
in the lumber industry reported substantial increases
in waste management of creosote.
Economic Overview, by industry,
Multi-Year Comparisons
U.S. economic expansion continued in 1997 with
3.9% real growth (adjusted for inflation) in gross
domestic product, compared to growth of 2.8% in
1996 (Economic Report of the President, February
1998.) As shown in Table 4-11, manufacturing
production also continued to increase.
Table 4-11 presents production indexes for each
industrial sector from 1991 to 1997. During this
period, production increased 32.0% for U.S.
manufacturing overall. Table 4-12 compares the
change in manufacturing production since 1991 with
the change in TRI quantity released on- and off-site
and in TRI total production-related waste managed.
As shown in Table 4-12 the quantity released on- and
off-site steadily decreased, even as manufacturing
production expanded. Overall, while production rose
32.0%, TRI facilities reported a decrease of 25.5% in
quantity released on- and off-site. Although the total
quantity of production-related waste that facilities
managed rose, the overall increase was still
considerably smaller than the nation's increase in
manufacturing production. As noted earlier, three
facilities' revisions would change the total
production-related waste managed for 1995,1996,
and 1997. The percentage changes also change, as
follows: to 2.9% for 1991-1995, to 0.9% for 1991-
1996 and to 8.3% for 1991-1997. Thus, taking into
account these revisions, for 1991 to 1997, TRI
production-related waste increased by 8.3%, roughly
one-quarter the 32.0% increase in manufacturing
production over the same period. While
manufacturing production steadily increased from
1991 to 1997, TRI production-related waste decreased
in most years. However, increases in 1994 and 1997
resulted in an overall increase for the period.

since revised these quantities to 200,000,000 pounds in 1995 and 244,000,000 pounds in 1996. Another facility, TPI Petroleum in Ardmore, OK, reported on-site
energy recovery for ethylene of 82,500,000 pounds in 1995,36,250,000 pounds in 1996, and 422,000,000 pounds in 1997. The facility also reported on-site;energy
recovery for propylene of 12,900,000 pounds in 1995,16,300,000 pounds in 1996, and 272,000,000 pounds in 1997. The facility has since revised these quantities to
zero. Another facility, Shell Chemical Co. in Geismar, LA, reported on-site energy recovery for ethylene of 193,830,000 pounds in 1997. The facility has since revised
this quantity to 13,000,000 pounds. Revisions by the three fccilities change total production-related waste to 18,977,934,800 pounds in 1995, to 18,599,767,113
pounds in 1996, and to 19,976,970,368 pounds in 1997. The percentage change in total production-related waste changes to 2.9% for 1991-1995, to 0.9% for 1991-
1996, and to 8.3% for 1991-1997.

Appendix B
Public Access to the Toxics Release
Inventory arid Related Information
According to many, the TRI program is one of the
most effective environmental programs ever
legislated by Congress and administered by EPA. Its
success is due, in large part, to the right-to-know
provisions contained in the legislation itself. By
requiring that the resulting data be made publicly
available by electronic and other means, Congress
ensures that citizens, the media, environmental
advocates, researchers, the business commiunity, and
others can influence and evaluate industry's efforts to
reduce toxics emissions.
Every year, EPA enhances its databases to make the
received data easier to search and expands its
outreach activities to include new potential users of
the data. To do this, EPA identifies and engages the
assistance of organizations to help promote TRI
awareness, provide access, and increase data usage.
Journalists, national and local public interest and
environmental groups, and state governme:nts
continue to be key outreach participants. Libraries in
communities all across the U.S., in particular,
members of the Federal Depository Library Program,
are committed to providing public access to TRI data
in a variety of formats. Because the value of TRI
increases as more people use it, EPA encourages these
organizations to acquaint new users with TRI, help
people who already know about TRI to better use and
understand the data, and, whenever possible, provide
feedback on how to improve TRI products and
services.
TRI products are available in a variety of common
computer and hard copy formats to ensure that
everyone can easily use the information. TRI is
available on diskette, CD-ROM, and computer
bulletin boards. It is also available through several on-
line national computer databases, and more and more
TRI information is being added to the Internet. TRI
reports are available from state government offices as
well as from EPA. Users can contact their state
EPCRA Coordinator or their EPA Regional TRI
Coordinator for assistance. (See listing of Regional
coordinators and state EPCRA contacts in Appendix
A.) Many other avenues for accessing TRI are
described in the following pages.
TRI has proven to be a rich source of data for a broad
public audience. For instance, educators are using the
data to conduct studies and courses on the
environment; labor unions are using TRI data to
improve conditions for workers; and businesses are
using the data in many ways—as a basis for reducing
large stocks of toxic chemicals, to cut costs, to
improve operations, to reduce the use of toxic
chemicals, and for a host of other reasons. Happily,
concerned citizens continue to be a growing user
group. These individuals, on their own and through
organized groups, are using TRI to raise and answer
questions about chemical releases in their
communities. States use the national data to compare
releases within industries.
Avenues of public access to TRI continue to thrive,
and TRI continues to be an important first step for
discovering which chemicals are being manufactured,
released, or transferred in communities across the
country. The diversity of the groups across the
country who use TRI also increases as well as the
varied uses of the data. TRI is increasingly becoming

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Accessing TRI data is easy. The data are available in
a wide variety of computer and hard copy formats to
meet most user's needs. Through outreach activities,
EPA identifies organizations in the toxics community
to help promote awareness of TRI and use of its data
products. TRI data are available on-line, for purchase
from the Government Printing Office (GPO) or the
National Technical Information Service (NTIS), for
use in Federal Depository Libraries across the U.S., or
from the National Service Center for Environmental
Publications (NSCEP). In addition, state officials also
receive TRI reports from facilities in their
jurisdiction, and many states publish reports
highlighting state and local trends. To find out more

Chemical Fact Sheets
OPPT is continuing to develop Chemical Fact Sheets
as part of its effort to provide the public wifh
information on chemicals. The goal is to provide
information summaries that supplement
environmental release information for TRI chemicals.
Two types of summaries are available for each
chemical. One is a two-page document providing a
non-technical summary of chemical information. The
other is a longer, referenced presentation of
information that provides the basis for statements
included in the shorter summary.
Both summaries provide the following information
for each chemical:
* its identity and properties
« how it is used
• how exposure to it might occur
» what happens to it in the environment
« how it affects human health and the environment
• what EPA offices and other groups can be
contacted for more information
Chemical Fact Sheets are now available for 40 high-
production volume TRI chemicals. Another 60 are in
various stages of OPPT review. Among the chemicals
for which Fact Sheets are available are: methylene
chloride (dichloromethane), toluene, acrylonitrile,
perchloroethylene, methyl tert-butyl ether, and
styrene. The Chemical Fact Sheets, their
accompanying support documents, and a list of
completed fact sheets can be found on the Internet at

Federal Depository Libraries
TR1 products are distributed though the Federal
Depository Library Program, a network of 1,400
public and academic libraries located in communities
all across the U.S. While librarians in these
organizations are not specialists in TRI information,
they are often quite knowledgeable about obtaining
and using information resources in general. Over 700
depository libraries receive the TRI on CD-ROM.
Librarians in these institutions can assist you in
searching the database and using other features, such
as printing reports and downloading data from the
CD-ROM. More and more depository libraries are
allowing patrons to access the Internet using public
workstations located in the library.

On-line Services
EPA's Web Sites
For TRI, like many other EPA programs, the Internet
is fast becoming one of the best resources for
identifying information that is available to the public.
EPA manages a full service Internet site, offering
access via the World Wide Web. EPA's World Wide
Web server (http://www.epa.gov) allows access not
only to text but to images as well. Using a browser
such as Netscape or Explorer, users can access the
Web site at no cost.
To access information on TRI specifically visit the
TRI access page at http://www.epa.gov/opptintr/
tri/access.htm or visit the TRI home page at
http://www.epa.gov/opptintr/tri. These sites offer
information useful to both novice and experienced
users of the toxics community. The TRI home page
provides, in lay terms, a description of what TRI is,
how it can be used, a discussion of TRI and health
issues, and much more. You can find out aibout TRI
products, view or download the 1997 TRI data release
reports, and identify who to contact for more
information in EPA regions and states programs
across the country. From the TRI home page, you can
"link" to other EPA and non-EPA sites that allow you
to search the TRI data base on-line.
OPPTS's databases and software web page at
http://www.epa.gov/opptintr/opptdb.htm contains
a variety of TRI related software and databases.
Another source for TRI information is the Envirofacts
Warehouse (http://www.epa.gov/enviro) which
provides free access to five of EPA's largest
databases with Superfund data, Safe Drinking Water
information, Hazardous Waste data, Water Discharge
permits, Air Releases, and TRI data. The user can
read about EPA's Toxics Release Inventory System,
generate reports, and produce maps showing the
location of TRI and other facilities at
http://www.epa.gov/enviro/html/tris/
tris overview.html. Envirofacts allows the user to
search the TRI database by facility name, geographic
location, SIC Code, or chemical name and to produce
reports on the facilities and map their locations. A
variety of user specified parameters let users point
and click to customize their searches. The maps
include facility locations as well as user defined
demographic information, schools, hospitals, roads,
bodies of water, and more. Maps can be printed out or
saved in various formats including GIF, JPG, TIF,
PDF, EPS, ARC/INFO and more.
National Library of Medicine (NLM) TOXNET
System
The National Library of Medicine (NLM) TOXNET
System makes TRI accessible to concerned citizens
and to businesses and organizations interested in
environmental or public health issues. TOXNET
offers state-of-the-art, user-friendly, on-line
searching. The system features a variety of on-line
user assistance features, a flexible command
language, and "free text" search capability. Users can
print specific portions of the records either on-line or
off-line, and there are a wide variety of customized
text options built into the system. The menu-driven
search package allows individuals with limited
computer skills to use the TRI on-line database
efficiently and effectively. However, starting this
spring, NLM plans to remove all the backfiles of TRI
from TOXNET, and only keep TRI95, TRI96 and the
new TRI97 up on the TOXNET system. The
TRIP ACTS file will not be available for searching on
the TOXNET system starting this spring. On-line
costs range from $18-$20 per hour. An NLM
password is necessary to use the file. The three TRI
files will also be available for searching on the
Internet free of charge on TOXNET on the Web. The
address for that is http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov. You
can obtain more information about accessing TRI on
TOXNET on NLM's Specialized Information
Services web site at http://sis.nlm.nih.gov.

Appendix D
TRI Data Quality Program
The goals of EPA's data quality program for TRI are
to: (1) identify and assist facilities that must report so
that data submitted will be of the highest quality, (2)
ensure high quality data entry, (3) correct and
normalize as much of the submitted data as possible
in order to maximize the utility of the data, (4)
accurately assess the relative validity of release
estimates and other data, and (5) ensure completeness
of the database with compliance and enforcement
measures.
IDENTIFICATION AND ASSISTANCE
TO FACILITIES
Through work with a wide variety of trade
associations, local and national seminars, training
courses, and enforcement activities, EPA has
endeavored to locate all facilities required to report
under section 313 of EPCRA and inform them of their
obligations. In addition, EPA has prepared various
materials to assist facilities hi complying with
EPCRA section 313. These include detailed reporting
instructions, a question-and-answer document,
magnetic media reporting instructions, general
technical guidance, and 27 industry-specific? guidance
documents. In addition, EPA maintains a toll-free
hotline to answer regulatory and technical questions
to assist facilities.
DATA ENTRY QUALITY ACTIVITIES
EPA continues to place a high emphasis on data entry
accuracy within the Toxics Release Inventory
database. For the 1997 reporting year, EPA's internal
review of approximately 4% of the records showed a
data entry accuracy rate of over 99.9%. This is up
from a 1987 reporting year rate of 97.5%. EPA
continued the computerized edit checks at the point of
data entry, including a high percent of verification
and formalization of data reconciliation activities.
EPA mailed copies of the release and transfer
estimates to all reporting facilities to allow them to
verify the entered data. EPA also received 68% of the
1997 submissions from facilities reporting on
magnetic media, which ensures that fewer EPA data
entry errors occur. This compares to 13% magnetic
media submissions for reporting year 1990 - the
second year that magnetic media reporting was
available. EPA is continuing to encourage the use of
magnetic media by all submitters.
CORRECTIONS AND
NORMALIZATIONS OF DATA
Because Congress has required that EPA make the
TRI data available to the public through computer
telecommunications, EPA has found it necessary to
undertake a variety of activities to make the data more
usable. This is due to the fact that computers only
retrieve data in exactly the format requested (e.g., if
asked for "Los Angeles," the computer will not
identify facilities listed under "LA"), and facilities
report their data in a wide variety of ways. As a result,
EPA has taken steps to use a consistent name for all
counties, has used a variety of nomenclature standards
for names within the database, and has taken other
steps to assist in the utilization of the data,
EPA generates a facility identification number at the
time of data entry. Linkage between all years of
reports has been made to the best of EPA's ability.
This allows easy retrieval of cross-year data, even
when a facility is sold or changes its name. The
identification number has been sent to all reporting
D-1
-------
Appendix D - TRI Data Quality Program
facilities, Facilities are required to use this number on
all future TRI reports submitted to the Agency. Use of
this number facilitates data quality and cross-year
analysis.
In 1998, EPA provided all states with a listing of
facilities that reported for 1997 to verify that both the
state and federal government received the same data.
States that responded found cases where facilities had
not reported to one or the other government. States
provided copies of forms to the EPA where EPA had
not received copies, and vice-versa. This activity has
provided a critical step to assist EPA in coordinating
the data collection with the states.
Every year EPA issues Notices of Noncompliance
(NONs) to facilities who use invalid forms or provide
incomplete forms, incomplete facility identification,
or incorrect/missing chemical identification. These
facilities are also notified by telephone to make sure
their follow-up revisions correct these errors. A
facility that does not comply with a NON may be
subject to civil penalties.
For reporting year 1997, EPA has again issued
Notices of Technical Error (NOTEs) for missing
required data or for incorrect information, such as
facility identification numbers or invalid codes. The
response rate to the NONs and NOTEs has been very
good and has prevented errors from recurring in
following years. In addition, to help facilities avoid
these types of errors, EPA provides a document
entitled Data Quality Checks to Prevent Common
Reporting Errors on Form R/Form A.
ACCURACY EVALUATION
,.
TRI data are widely used by the public, the media,
state, local and tribal governments, environmental and
industry advocacy groups, researchers, and the
business community. The number of TRI data user
groups grow every year. Therefore, TRI data quality
is an important issue for any meaningful data
analysis. The Agency is currently using data
validation techniques, protocol to approve or deny
any request to withdraw TRI data from the public
database, TRI voluntary site surveys to improve TRI
data quality, and TRI inspections. In order to ensure
high quality, the Agency is in the process of setting
up a procedure, similar to all withdrawal requests, to
revise the data submitted to TRI.
The accuracy of the release data can vary. Some
releases can be estimated fairly easily, just by
knowing how much of a chemical was used or by
weighing drums of solid/liquid waste, for example.
Where monitoring of release streams or wastes has
been done, release estimates may be within 20% of
the actual amount released, although infrequent, non-
representative sampling may lead to much less
accuracy. Estimates of fugitive air emissions and
complex wastewaters for which monitoring data are
not available may be off by one or even two orders of
magnitude, particularly when the release is a small
percentage of the amount of the chemical actually
processed.
The purpose of a data quality site survey is to assess
the quality of the data collected under section 313 and
to identify areas where improved guidance would be
useful for improving the accuracy of future reported
data. Site surveys are also designed to identify the
frequency and the magnitude of errors in the Form R
data and the reasons these errors occurred. EPA also
conducts train-the-trainer courses for industry to assist
them in reporting to TRI.
For the 1987 and 1988 reporting years, EPA
conducted data quality site surveys at facilities to
determine how well facilities complied with the law
and estimated release quantities. These surveys did
not "confirm" estimates through monitoring, but
determined how well facilities used available data and
estimation techniques to calculate releases.
Overall, based on the survey of 156 facilities, 1987
total annual releases appeared to have been
underestimated by 2%, representing the net effect of
D-2
-------
overestimates and underestimates. For non-zero
release estimates, more than three-quarters were
within a factor of two of EPA's best estimate. About
15% were in error by an order of magnitude or more.
The survey of the 1988 data focused on facilities in
Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes 28
(chemical manufacturing), 29 (petroleum refining),
and 34 (metal finishing and fabrication). Ninety
facilities were visited. The aggregate 1988 release
estimates in these industries were more accurate than
their 1987 estimates, since their aggregate 1988
estimates were found to be approximately equal to the
estimates calculated by the EPA contractor.
For the 1987 and 1988 reporting year, in a different
type of survey, EPA also identified approximately
1,800 forms with suspect release data and telephoned
facilities to discuss how to improve and correct their
estimates. The information from this survey was also
used to improve the reporting instructions and
technical guidance.
EPA completed a 1994 and 1995 data quality site
survey for facilities in SIC codes 25 (furniture
manufacturing), 26 (pulp and paper manufacturing),
28 (chemical manufacturing), and 30 (rubber and
plastics manufacturing). Overall, the survey found a
Appendix D - TRI Data Quality Program
high degree of agreement between facility and
surveyor estimates. General trends noted in the RY
1994 data were that the total releases claimed by the
facility for all SIC codes surveyed were less than the
total releases claimed by the site surveyors. RY 1995
data showed that the total releases and other waste
management quantities claimed by the facility
approximately equaled those quantities claimed by the
site surveyors. Total aggregate releases and other
waste management quantities calculated by facilities
and site surveyors for all SIC codes surveyed in RY
1994 and RY 1995 differed by 4%.
EPA recently completed a 1996 data quality site
survey for facilities in SIC codes 33 (primary metals
industry), 36 (electronic and other electrical
equipment industry), and 37 (transportation
equipment industry). Facilities determined thresholds
correctly 95% of the time for all TRI chemicals used
on-site. Overall, facilities correctly identified release
and other waste management activity quantities. The
survey identified facilities in the primary metals
industry and electrical equipment industry (SIC codes
33 and 36) that misreported release and other waste
management quantities of TRI chemicals, primarily
due to the confusion over definitions of recycling.

Appendix E
TRI Form R and Form A for 1997
Facilities reporting to the Toxics Release Inventory
submit their information on TRI's Form R. If a
facility's total annual reportable amount of a chemical
does not exceed 500 pounds, and the facility does not
manufacture, process, or otherwise use more than 1
million pounds of the chemical, it may submit a Form
A certification statement. (Form A certification
statement reporting is further explained in Chapter 1.)
This appendix supplies copies of the Form R and
Form A certification statement for the 1997 reporting
year.
FORMR
The 1997 Form R is divided into two parts:
Part I, Facility Identification Information, contains
information on such matters as name, address, parent
company information, and contact names and phone
numbers for the facility.
Part II, Chemical-Specific Information, contains
information such as chemical identity, facility
activities and uses of the chemical, amounts of on-
and off-site releases and transfers off-site for further
waste management, on-site waste treatment methods
and efficiencies, on- and off-site waste management
quantities, and information on source reduction and
recycling activities.
FORM A CERTIFICATION STATEMENT
The 1997 Form A certification statement consists of
facility identification information and chemical
identification, as in Form R. Facilities do not report
on the Form A certification statement amounts or
other information about their use, releases, or waste
management of the chemical.
Readers who are interested in a more in-depth
understanding of who is required to report to TRI and
how to fill out the forms, should refer to the EPCRA
Information Hotline at 1-800-424-9346. Reporting
software, forms, and instructions for the current
reporting year are available form EPA's Web site at
