Important Changes
in the Section 313 Requirements for
Reporting Year 1989
Reporting requirements for calendar year 1989 (reports due July 1, 1990) differ from prior year's
requirements:
(1) The 1989 threshold for manufacturing or processing a covered toxic chemical is
25,000 pounds (the threshold was 50,000 pounds for reporting year 1988). You
must use this threshold in determining whether you are subject to the reporting
requirements. (See "Threshold Determinations," page 7, for more information.)
(2) The following chemicals have been specifically delisted and are not covered for the 1989
reporting year:
(3)
Titanium dioxide
C.I. Acid Blue 9 diammonium salt
C.I. Acid Blue 9 disodium salt
Melamine
Sodium sulfate (solution)
Sodium hydroxide (solution)
CAS Number
13463-67-7
2650-18-2
3844-45-9
108-78-1
7757-82-6
1310-73-2
A TRI facility identification number has been assigned to each facility that previously submitted
Form R reports. This identification number is designed to simplify locating facility reports.
All facilities which submitted a Form R previously will receive a section 313 compliance
package that includes a self adhesive mailing label with the TRI facility identification number.
If this material did not contain a mailing label or you have misplaced it, contact the Emergency
Planning and Community Right-to-Know Information Hotline for help in determining your TRI
facility identification number.
(4) The EPA Headquarters address for submitting completed Form R reports has been changed to:
EPCRA Reporting Center
P.O. Box 23779
Washington, D.C. 20026-3779
Attn: Toxic Chemical Release Inventory
Supplier Notification Began in 1989
With the first shipment of product in calendar year 1989, suppliers were
required to provide notice to their customers regarding all mixtures or trade
name products that contain listed toxic chemicals. The notice must be
attached to or included in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). The
data in the notice must be used for threshold and release calculations
beginning with reports submitted for calendar year 1989, due July 1,1990.
(See Appendix E: Supplier Notification Requirements for more information.)

A. GENERAL INFORMATION
Submission of EPA Form R, the Toxic Chemical Release
Inventory Reporting Form, is required by section 313 of the
Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (Title
III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of
1986), Public Law 99-499. The information contained in Form
R constitutes a "report," and the submission of a report to the
appropriate authorities constitutes "reporting."
Reporting is required to provide the public with information on
the releases of listed toxic chemicals from your facility to the
environment during the past calendar year. Facilities must
report the quantities of both routine and accidental releases of
listed chemicals, as well as the maximum amount of the listed
chemical on-site during the calendar year and the amount con-
tained in wastes transferred off-site.
A completed Form R must be submitted for each toxic chemi-
cal manufactured, processed, or otherwise used at each
covered facility as prescribed in the reporting rule in 40 CFR
Part 372 (published February 16,1988 in the Federal Regis-
ter). These instructions supplement and elaborate on the
requirements in the reporting rule. Together with the reporting
rule, they constitute the reporting requirements. All refer-
ences in these instructions are to sections in the reporting rule
unless otherwise indicated.
A.1 HOW TO ASSEMBLE A COMPLETE REPORT
The Toxic Chemteal Release Reporting Form, EPA Form R,
consists of four parts:
Q Part I, Facility Identification Information (page 1);
a Part II, Off-Site Locations to Which Toxic Chemicals are
Transferred in Wastes (page 2);
Q Part III, Chemical-Specific Information (pages 3 and 4);
and
Q Part IV, Supplemental Information (page 5).
Most of the information required in Part I and all of the
information required in Part II of Form R can be filled in and
photocopied and attached to each chemical-specific report.
Part I must have an original signature on the certification state-
ment and the trade secret designation must be entered as
appropriate. You have the option to complete Part II for only
the off-site locations that apply to the individual chemical cited
in the report ££ you can list all off-site locations that apply to all
chemicals being reported and Include a photostatic copy of
this Part II with each individual report. Part III must be
completed separately for each chemical. Part IV provides
additional space, if needed, to complete the information re-
quired by the preceding sections of the form. Include Part IV
in your report, even if rt is blank.
A complete report for any listed toxic chemical that is not
claimed trade secret consists of the following completed parts:
Q Part I with an original signature on the certification state-
ment (Section 2);
Q Part II;
Q Part III (Section 8 is optional); and
Q Part IV (even if blank).
Staple all five pages of each report together. Do not submit
supporting documentation or other materials with your Form R
submission.
A.2 TRADE SECRET CLAIMS
For any chemical whose identity is claimed as a trade secret,
you must submit to EPA two versions of the substantiation
form as prescribed in 40 CFR Part 350, published July 29,
1988 in the Federal Register (53 FR 28772). Use the order
form in this document to obtain a copy of the rule and
substantiation form. One version identifies the chemical; the
second version does not identify the chemical specifically, but
provides instead a generic identity. Only this latter version will
be available to the public. For further explanation of the trade-
secret provisions, see the instructions below for Part I, Sec-
tions 1.1 and 1.2 and Part III, Sections 1.1-1.4.
A complete report for a toxic chemical claimed trade secret
includes all of the above items plus the following:
Q A completed Form R report including the chemical identity
(staple the pages together);
Q A "sanitized* version of a completed Form R report in
which the chemical identity items (Part III, Sections 1.2
and 1.3) have been left blank but in which a generic
chemical name has been supplied (Part III, Section 1.4)
(staple the pages together);
Q A completed trade secret substantiation form (staple the
pages together);
Q A "sanitized* version of the trade secret substantiation
form (staple the pages together).
Securely fasten all lour reports together.

General
Page 2
Copies of the report sent to the State or Indian tribe should be
the "sanitized," non-trade secret version of the report, unless
the State specifically requires otherwise. The report submitted
to EPA should include both trade-secret and non-trade-secret
versions.
A.5 WHERE TO SEND THE REPORT
A.3 RECORDKEEPING
You must keep a copy of each report. In addition, you must
keep the supporting materials used to develop the information
contained in the report. These records must be kept at the
facility for a period of three years from the date of the
submission and must be readily available for inspection by
EPA.
A.4 WHEN THE REPORT MUST BE SUBMITTED
The report for any calendar year must be submitted on or
before July 1 of the following year (e.g., the report for calendar
year 1989, January-December, must be submitted on or
before July 1,1990).
Voluntary Revision of a Previous Submission
If you are making a voluntary revision to a previous Form R
submission, enter "Voluntary Revision" in the space marked
"This space for your optional use" on aj].f ive pages of the fo rm.
If you have obtained the Document Control Number (DCN) of
the original submission from EPA, enter that number also in
this space. Enter the revised data to the Form R and circle it
in red ink. Sign the certification and provide a current date.
You must provide the facility's name, TRI facility identification
number (if applicable), and the chemical name on the revised
Form R exactly as they were reported previously to enable
tracking of the original data. If one of these data items has
changed since the original submission, you must enter the
data which appeared in the original submission to the revised
Form R and indicate the new data In the optional use space on
page 1 of the revised Form R. Alternatively, you may submn
a copy of the original Form R submission, with correction ?
made in red ink, writing the words "VOLUNTARY REVISION",
and the DCN, if available, in the space marked This space .'or
your optional use" on all five pages (or more) of the Form R,
and resigning and re-dating the certification statement on
page 1.
Send the entire completed revised Form R report to fc.PA and
the appropriate state agency. Submissions for the ne (t calen-
dar year are not considered revisions of a previous year's
data.
Form R submissions must be sent to both EPA and the State.
Send EPA reports by mail to:
EPCRA Reporting Center
P.O. Box 23779 |
Washington, D.C. 20026-3779
Attn: Toxic Chemical Release Inventory
Certified mail and hand-delivered submissions only should be
addressed to:
EPCRA Reporting Center
470 L'Enfant Plaza East
Suite 7103, SW
Washington, DC 20024

In addition, you must send a copy of the report to the State in
which the facility is located ("State" refers to: State of the U.S.,
the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico,
Guam, American Samoa, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the Northern
Mariana Islands, and any other territory or possession over
which the U.S. has jurisdiction). Refer to Appendix G for the
appropriate State address for your submission. If your facility
is located on Indian land, send a copy to the Chief Executive
Officer of the applicable Indian tribe. Some tribes have entered
into a cooperative agreement with the State, in which this
case, Form R submissions should be sent to the entity
designated in the cooperative agreement.
The submissions ol section 313 reports in magnetic media and
computer-generated facsimile formats has been approved by
EPA. Magnetic media submissions to EPA must follow basic
specifications set forth by EPA in the document, Magnetic
Media Submissions Instructions (EPA 560/4-90-008) which is
also included in EPA's Toxic Chemical Release Inventory
Reporting Package for 1989

B.1 FULL-TIME EMPLOYEE DETERMINATION
(See Figure A tor more information.)
B.2.a Multi-Establishment Facilities
A "full-time employee," for purposes of section 313 reporting,
is defined as 2,000 work hours per year. To determine the
number of full-time employees at your facility, add up the hours
worked by all employees during the calendar year, including
contract employees and sales and support staff working at the
facility and divide the total by 2,000 hours. In other words, if
the total number of hours worked by all employees is 20,000
hours or more, your facility meets the ten employee threshold.
B.2 PRIMARY SIC CODE DETERMINATION
Table I on page 34 includes a listing of SIC codes 20-39 and
the associated 4-digit SIC codes covered by the rule. The first
two digits of a 4-digit SIC code define a major business sector,
while the last two digits denote a facility's specialty within the
major sector. You may already know the SIC code of your
business as a result of your having had to develop insurance
or other reports. If you are not familiar with the SIC codes that
apply to your facility, contact your trade association, Chamber
of Commerce, or legal counsel. For a detailed description of
4-digit SIC codes, refer to the "Standard Industrial Classifica-
tion Manual 1987." Clothbound editions should be available in
most major libraries or may be ordered through the National
Technical Information Service, 5285 Port Royal Road, Spring-
field, VA, 22161, (703) 487-4650. The access numberforthe
clothbound manual is PB87-100012, and the price is $30.00.
If you are unsure of your SIC code, review your operations to
determine if you produce products of the type described in SIC
codes 20-39. If the value of those products is greater than any
other types of goods and services that you produce at that
facility, then you meet the SIC code criterion.
Section 313 requires that reports be filed by "facilities," which
are defined as "all buildings, equipment, structures, and other
stationary items which are located on a single site or on
contiguous or adjacent sites and which are owned or operated
by the same person.* The SIC code system, however,
classifies business "establishments," which are defined as
"distinct and separate economic activities [that] are performed
at a single physical location."
Establishments, in the SIC code system, are to be treated as
separate activities. In many cases, a section 313 "facility" is
the same as an "establishment" as defined by the SIC code
system.
Your facility may include multiple establishments that have
different primary SIC codes. If so, calculate the value of the
products produced or shipped from each establishment within
the facility and then use the following rule to determine if your
facility meets the SIC code criterion:
Q If the total value of the products shipped from or produced
at establishments with primary SIC codes between 20
and 39 is greaterthan 50 percent of the value of the entire
facility's products and services, the entire facility meets
the SIC code criterion.
Q If any one establishment with a primary SIC code between
20 and 39 produces or ships products whose value
exceeds the value of products and services produced or
shipped by any other establishment within the facility, the
facility also meets the SIC code criterion.
The value of production attributable to a particular establish-
ment may be adjusted by subtracting the value of products
obtained from other establishments within the same facility
that are incorporated into its final products. This procedure
eliminates the potential for "double counting" production in
situations where establishments are engaged in sequential
production activities at a single facility.
Examples include:
Q One establishment in a facility mines ore; all of the ore is
smelted at a second establishment in the facility. The
facility could calculate the value of production for each
establishment separately. Alternatively, the facility could
determine the value of the smelter operation by subtract-
ing the value of the ore produced from the value of entire
facility's production.
Q A food processing establishment in a facility processes
crops grown at the facility in a separate establishment.
The facility could base the value of the products of each
establishment on the total production value of each estab-
lishment. Alternatively, the facility could determine the
value of the crops grown at the agricultural establishment.
Then, to calculate the contribution of the food processing
establishment, the facility would subtract the crop value
from the total value of the product shipped from the
processing establishment.
-------
General
Page 6
A covered multi-establishment facility must make chemical
threshold determinations and report all relevant information
about releases and waste treatment associated with a listed
chemical, even from establishments that are not in SIC codes
20-39. EPA realizes, however, that certain establishments in
a multi-establishment facility can be, for all practical purposes,
separate business units. Therefore, individual establishments
may report separately, provided that the total release is
reported for the whole facility is represented by the sum of
releases reported by the separate establishments.
B.2.b Auxiliary Facilities
An auxiliary facility is one that supports another facility's
activities (e.g., research and development laboratories, ware-
houses, storage facilities, and waste-treatment facilities). An
auxiliary facility can take on the SIC code of another covered
facility if its primary function is to service that other covered
facility's operations. Thus, a separate warehouse facility (i.e.,
one not located within the physical boundries of a covered
facility) may become a covered facility because it services a
facility in SIC codes 20-39. Auxiliary facilities that are in SIC
codes 20-39 are required to report if they meet the employee
criterion and chemical thresholds formanufacture, process, or
use. Auxiliary establishments that are part of a multi-estab-
lishment facility must be factored into threshold determina-
tions for the facility as a whole.
B.2.c Facility-Related Exemptions
Laboratories: Listed toxic chemicals that are manufactured,
processed, or otherwise used in laboratory activities at a
covered facility under the direct supervision of a technically
qualified individual do not have to be factored into the thresh-
old and release calculations. However, pilot plant scale and
specialty chemical production do not qualify for this laboratory
activities exemption.
Property Owners: You are not required to report if you merely
own real estate on which a facility covered by this rule is
located; that is, you have no other business interest in the
operation of thatfacility (e.g., your company owns an industrial
park). The operator of that facility, howevar, is subject to
reporting requirements.
B.3 ACTIVITY DETERMINATION
B.3.3 Definitions of "Manufacture,"
"Process," and "Otherwise Use"
Manufacture: The term "manufacture" means to produce,
prepare, compound, or import a listed toxic chemical. See
page 18 for further clarification.)
Import is defined as causing the chemical to be imported into
the customs territory of the United States. If you order a
covered toxic chemical (or a mixture containing the chemical)
from a foreign supplier, then you have imported the chemical
when that shipment arrives at your facility directly from a
source outside of the United States. By ordering the chemical,
you have "caused it to be imported," even though you may
have used an import brokerage firm as an agent to obtain the
chemical.
The term manufacture also includes coincidental production of
a toxic chemical (e.g., as a byproduct or impurity) as a result
of the manufacture, processing, use, or treatment of other
chemical substances. In the case of coincidental production
of an impurity (i.e., a chemical that remains in the product that
is distributed in commerce), the de minimis limitation, dis-
cussed on page 11, applies. The de minimis limitation does
not apply to byproducts (e.g., a chemical that is separated
from a process stream and further processed or disposed)
Certain listed toxic chemicals may be manufactured as a result
of wastewater treatment or other treatment processes. For
example, neutralization of acid wastewater can result in the
coincidental manufacture of ammonium nitrate (solution)
EXAMPLE 1: Coincidental Manufacture
Your company, a nitric acid manufacturer, uses ammonia in a
waste treatment system to neutralize an acidic wastewater
stream containing nitric acid. The reaction of the ammonia
and nitric acid produces an ammonium nitrate solution.
Ammonium nitrate solution is a listed toxic substance, as are
nitric acid and ammonia. Your facility otherwise uses ammo-
nia as a reactant and manufactures ammonium nitrate solu-
tion as a byproduct. If the ammonium nitrate solution is
produced in a quantity that exceeds the threshold (e.g.,
25,000 pounds for 1989), the facility must report for ammo-
nium nitrate solution. If more than 10,000 pounds of ammonia
is added to the wastewater treatment system, then the facility
must report for ammonia.
Process: The term "process" means the preparation of a
listed toxic chemical, after its manufacture, for distribution in
commerce. Processing is usually the intentional incorporation
of a toxic chemical into a product (see page 19 forfurtherclan-
-------
Page 7
General
fication). Processing includes preparation of the chemical in
the same physical state or chemical form as that received by
your facility, or preparation that produces a change in physical
state or chemical form. The term also applies to the process-
ing of a mixture or other trade name product (see page 11) that
contains a listed toxic chemical as one component.
EXAMPLE 2: Typical Process and Manufacture
Activities
3 Your company receives toluene, a listed toxic chemical,
from another facility, reacts the toluene with air to form
benzole acid, and further reacts the benzole acid with a
cadmium catalyst to form terephthalic acid. Cadmium
compounds and terephthalic acid are also listed toxic
chemicals. Your company processes toluene, and other-
wise uses (not processes) the cadmium catalyst (see the
definition of "otherwise use" below). Your company
manufacture^ benzoic acid and terephthalic acid. Bert-
zoic acid, however, is not a listed chemical and thus does
not trigger reporting requirements.
a Your facility combines toluene purchased from a supplier
with various materials to form paint. Your facility proc-
esses toluene.
a Your company receives a nickel compound (nickel com-
pound is a listed toxic chemical category) as a bulk solid
and performs various size-reduction operations (e.g.,
grinding) before packaging the compound in 50 pound
bags. Your company processes the nickel compound.
a Your company receives a prepared mixture of resin and
chopped fiberto be used in the injection molding of plastic
products. The resin contains a listed chemical that
becomes incorporated into the plastic. Your facility proc-
esse§ the chemical.
Otherwise Use: The term "otherwise use* encompasses any
use of a listed chemical at a facility that does not fall under the
definitions of "manufacture" or "process." A chemical that is
otherwise used by a facility is not intentionally incorporated
into a product distributed in commerce.
EXAMPLE 3: Otherwise Us*
When your facility cleans equipment with toluene, you are
otherwise using toluene. Your facility also separates two
components of a mixture by dissolving one component in
toluene, and subsequently recovers the toluene from the
process for reuse or disposal, your facility otherwise uses
toluene.
B.3.b Activity Exemptions
Use Exemptions. Certain uses of listed chemicals are specifi-
cally exempted: use as a structural component of the facility;
use in routine janitorial or facility grounds maintenance; per-
sonal uses by employees or other persons; use of products
containing toxic chemicals for the purpose of maintaining
motor vehicles operated by the facility; or use of toxic chemi-
cals contained in intake water (used for processing or non-
contact cooling) or in intake air (used either as compressed air
or for combustion).
Article Exemptions. You do not have to factor into threshold
or release determinations quantities of a listed toxic chemical
contained in an article when that article is processed or used
at your facility. An article is defined as a manufactured item
that is formed to a specific shape or design dunng manufac-
ture, that has end-use functions dependent in whole or in part
upon its shape or design during end-u ~e, and that does not
release a toxic chemical under norrral conditions of the
processing or use of that item at the fac lity.
If the processing or otherwise use of similar articles results in
a total release of less than 0.5 pound of a toxic chemical in a
calendar year to any environmental media, EPA will allow this
release quantity to be rounded to zero and the manufactured
items remain exempt as articles. EPA requires facilties to
round off and report all estimates to the nearest whole num-
ber. The 0.5 pound limit does not apply to each individual
article, but applies to the sum of all releases from processing
or use of like articles.
The article exemption applies to the normal processing or use
of an article. It do«* not apply to the manufacture of an
artlcl*. Toxic chemicals processed into articles produced at
a facility must be factored into thresho j and release determi-
nations.
A closed item containing toxic chemicals (e.g., a transformer
containing PCBs) that does not release the chemicals during
normal use is considered an article if the facility uses the item
as intended and the toxic chemicals are not released, rf the
facility services the transformer by replacing the toxic chemi-
cals, the chemicals added during the reporting year must be
counted in threshold and release calculations.
When the processing or use of an item generates fumes, dust,
filings, or grindings, the article exemption is not applicable.
The chemical(s) in the item must be counted toward the
appropriate threshold determination, and the fumes, dust,
filings, and grindings reported as releases or wastes. How-
ever, if all wastes generated are recycled, whether on- or off-
site, the exemption is applicable. In addition, scrap pieces that
are recognizable as an article do not constitute a release.

General
Example 4: Article Exemption
J Lead that is incorporated into a lead acid battery is
processed to manufacture the battery, and therefore
must be counted toward threshold and release determi-
nations. However, the use of the lead acid battery
elsewhere in the facility does not have to be counted.
Disposal of the battery after its use does not cpnstitute a
"release"; thus, the battery remains an article.
Q Metal rods that are extruded into wire are not articles
because their form changes during processing.
3 If an item used in the facility is fragmented, the item is still
an article if those fragments being discarded remain
identifiable as the article (e.g., recognizable pieces of a
cylinder, pieces of wire). For instance, an 8-foot piece of
wire is broken into two 4-foot pieces of wire, without
releasing any toxic chemicals. Each 4-foot piece is
identifiable as a piece of wire; therefore, the article status
for these pieces of wire remains intact.
Q Toxic chemicals received in the form of pellets are not ar-
ticles because the pellet form is simply a convenient form
for further processing of the material.
B.S.c Activity Qualifiers
Table II (see pages 40-48) contains the list of individual
chemicals and categories of chemicals subject to 1988
calendar year reporting. Some of the chemicals listed in
Table II have parenthetic qualifiers listed next to them. A
chemical that is listed without a qualifier is subject to
reporting in all forms in which it is manufactured, processed,
and used.
Fume or dust. Three of the metals on the list (aluminum,
vanadium, and zinc) contain the qualifier "fume or dust." This
qualifier means that a facility is manufacturing, processing, or
using the metal in the form of fume or dust. Fume or dust does
not refer to "wet" forms, solutions or slurries, for example, but
only dry forms of these metals. As explained on page 6 of
these instructions, the term manufacture includes the genera-
tion of a chemical as a byproduct or impurity. In such cases,
a facility should determine if, for example, it generated more
than 25,000 pounds of aluminum fume or dust in 1989 as a
result of its activities. If so, the facility must report that it
manufactures "aluminum (fume or dust)." Similarly, there may
be certain technologies in which one of these metals is
processed in the form of a fume or dust to make other
chemicals or other products for distribution in commerce. In
reporting releases, the facility would only report releases of the
fume or dust.
Manufacturing qualifiers. Two of the entries to the section 313
chemical list contain a qualifier relating to manufacture. For
isopropyl alcohol, the qualifier is "manufacturing-strong acid
process." For saccharin, the qualifier simply is "manufac-
turing." For isopropyl alcohol, the qualifier means that only
facilities which manufacture isopropyl alcohol by the strong
acid process are required to report. In the case of saccharin,
only manufacturers of the chemical are subject to the reporting
requirements. A facility that processes or otherwise uses '
either chemical would not be required to report for those
chemicals. In both cases, supplier notification does not apply
because only manufacturers, not users, of the toxic chemical
must report.
Solutions. Two substances on the list, ammonium nitrate and
ammonium sulfate, are qualified by the term "solution," which
refers to the physical state of these chemicals. Solid, molten,
and pelletized forms of these chemicals are exempt from
threshold and release determinations. Only facilities that
manufacture, process, or otherwise use these chemicals in
the form of a solution are required to report. Supplier notifica-
tion applies only if the chemical is distributed as a solution
Phosphorus (vellow or white]. The listing for phosphorus is
qualified by the term "yellow or white." This means that only
manufacturing, processing, or use of phosphorus in the yellow
or white chemical form triggers reporting. Conversely, manu-
facturing, processing, or use of "black" or "red" phosphorus do
not trigger reporting. Supplier notification also applies only to
distribution of yellow or white phosphorus.
Asbestos (friable). The listing for asbestos is qualified by the
term "friable." referring to the physical characteristic of being
able to crumbled, pulverized, or reducible to a powder with
hand pressure. Only manufacturing, processing, or use of as-
bestos in the friable form triggers reporting. Supplier notifica-
tion applies only to distribution of mixtures or trade products
containing friable asbestos.

B.4 THRESHOLD DETERMINATION
Section 313 reporting is required if threshold quantities are
exceeded. The thresholds vary depending upon the year for
which the report is submitted and separate thresholds apply to
the amount of the chemical that is manufactured, processed,
or otherwise used.
You must submit a report for any listed chemical that is manu-
factured or processed over the course of the year at your
facility in excess of the following threshold:
3 For calendar year 1987, 75,000 pounds;
3 For calendar year 1988, 50,000 pounds;
3 For calendar year 1989 and subsequent years,
25,000 pounds.
You must submit a report if the quantity of a listed chemical
that is otherwise used at your facility exceeds:
3 10,000 pounds during the course of a calendar year.
B.4.a How to Determine If Thresholds Are
Exceeded
To determine whether yourf acility has exceeded a section 313
reporting threshold, compare quantities of listed chemicals
that you manufacture, process, or otherwise use to the sepa-
rate respective thresholds for those activities. A suggested
worksheet is provided in Figure B (see page 10) to assist
facilities in determining whether their facility exceeds any of
the reporting thresholds. This worksheet also provides a
format for maintaining reporting facility records. Use of this
worksheet is not required and the completed worksheet(s)
should not accompany Form R reports submitted to EPA and
the State.
A separate worksheet would be completed for each section
313 chemical or chemical category. Chemicals which are
listed with specific qualifiers (e.g., solution; manufacture)
require that the threshold determinations only be based on the
amount of the chemical meeting the qualifier. Use of the
worksheet is divided into three steps:
Step 1 allows you to record the gross amount of the toxic
chemical or chemical category involved in activities through-
out the facility. Pure forms as well as the amounts of the
chemical or chemical category present in mixtures or trade
name products must be considered. The types of activity (i.e.,
manufacturing, processing, or otherwise using) for which the
chemical is used must be identified because separate thresh-
olds apply to each of these activities. A record of the
information source(s) used should be kept. Possible informa-
tion sources include purchase records, inventory data, and
calculations by your process engineer. The data collected in
Step 1 will be totalled for each activity to identify the overall
amount of the chemical or chemical category manufactured
(including imported), processed, or otherwise used.
Step 2 allows you to identify uses of the chemical or chemical
category that were included in Step 1 but that are exempt
under section 313. Do not include in Step 2 exempt forms of
the chemical not included in the calculations in Step 1. For
example, if you did not report the freon contained in the
building's air conditioners in Step 1, you would not include the
amount as exempt in Step 2. Step 2 is intended for use when
one form or use of the chemical is exempt while others forms
require reporting. Note the type of exemption for future
reference. Also identify, if applicable, the fraction or percent-
age of the chemical present that is exempt. Add the amounts
in each activity to obtain a subtotal for exempted amounts of
the chemical or chemical categones at the facility.
Step 3 involves subtracting the result of Step 2 from the res ults
of Step 1 for each activity. Compare this net sum to the
applicable activity threshold. If the threshold is met or ex-
ceeded for any of the three activities, your facility must submit
a Form R for that chemical or chemical category. This
worksheet should be retained in either case, to document your
determination for reporting or not reporting. Do not submit this
worksheet, or any other calculations, with your Form R report.
Retain the worksheet for your records.
Do not add together the quantities of the chemical that are
manufactured, processed, and used at your facility, because
each of these activities requires a separate threshold determi-
nation. For example, if in 1989 you processed 20,000 pounds
of a chemical and you otherwise used 6,000 pounds of that
same chemical, your facility has not met or exceeded any
applicable threshold and thus is not required to report for that
chemical.
You must submit a report If you exceed any threshold for
any listed chemical or chemical category. For example, if
vour facility processes 22.000 pounds of a listed chemical and
also otherwise uses 16,000 pounds of that same chemical, al-
though you do not exceed the process threshold, you do
exceed the otherwise used threshold (10,000 pounds) and
you therefore must report. However, in preparing your re-
ports, you must consider all non-exempted activities and all
releases of that chemical from your facility, not just the
releases from the otherwise use activity.
Also note that threshold determinations are based upon the
actual amounts of a chemical manufactured, processed, or
used over the course of the calendar year. The threshold
determination may not relate to the amount of a toxic chemi-
cal brought on-srte during the calendar year. For example, a
stockpile of 100,000 pounds of a toxic chemical is present on-
site but only 20,000 pounds is applied to a process. Therefore,
only the 20,000 pounds processed is counted toward a thresh-
old determination, not the entire 100,000 pounds of the stock-
pile.

General
Threshold Determinations for On-Site Reuse/Recvcle Operq-
tions.
Threshold determinations of listed toxic chemicals that are
recycled or reused at the facility are based only on the amount
at the chemical that is added during the year, not the total
volume in the system. For example, a facility operates a
refrigeration unit that contains 15,000 pounds of ammonia at
the beginning of the year. The system is charged with 2,000
pounds of ammonia during the year. The facility has therefore
"otherwise used" only 2,000 pounds of the covered chemical
and is not required to report (unless there are other "otherwise
use" activities of ammonia which, when taken together, ex-
ceed the reporting mreshold). If, however, the whole refrigera-
tion unit had to be recharged with 15,000 pounds of ammonia
during the year, the facility would have exceeded the other-
wise use threshold.
This exemption does not apply to toxic chemicals "recycled"
off-site and returned to the facility. Such toxic chemicals
returned to the facility are treated as the equivalent of newly
purchased material for purposes of section 313 threshold
determinations.
Threshold Determinations for Chemical Categories.
A number of chemical compound categories are subject to
reporting. See Table II, page 48, for a listing of these chemical
categories. When reporting for one of these chemical catego-
ries, all individual members of a category that are manufac-
tured, processed, or otherwise use must be added. However,
threshold determinations must be made separately for each of
the three activities. Do not include in these threshold determi-
nations for a category, any chemicals that are also specifically
listed section 313 toxic chemicals (see Table II, pages 40-47).
Specifically listed toxic chemicals are subject to their own,
individual threshold determination.
Threshold determinations for metal-containing compounds
present a special case. If, for example, you process several
different lead compounds, you would base your threshold
determination on the total weight of all lead compounds
processed. However, if you process both the "parent" metal
(lead) as well as one or more lead compounds, you must make
threshold determinations for both because they are separately
listed toxic chemicals. If you exceed thresholds for both the
parent metal and compounds of that same metal, EPA allows
you to file one combined report (e.g., one report for lead
compounds, including lead) because the release information
you will report in connection with metal compounds will be the
total pounds of the parent metal released.
One other case involving metal compounds should be noted.
Some metal compounds may contain more than one listed
metal. For example, lead chromate is both a lead compound
and a chromium compound. In such cases, if applicable
thresholds are exceeded, you are required to file two separate
reports, one for lead compounds and one for chromium
compounds. You would apply the total weight of the lead
chromate to the threshold determinations for both lead and
chromium compounds. However, if the thresholds are ex-
ceeded for these categories, only the amount of each parent
metal released (not the amount of the compound) would be re-
ported on the appropriate Form R.
B.4.b Mixtures and Trade Name Products
Toxic chemicals in mixtures and in trade name products must
be factored into threshold and release determinations.
If you imported, processed, or otherwise used mixtures or
trade name products during calendar year 1939, you are
required to use the best information you have available at the
facility to determine whether the corroonents of a mixture are
above the de minimis concentration and therefore must be
included in threshold and release dett rminations. If you know
that a mixture or trade name product contains a specific toxic
chemical, combine the amount of the toxic chemical in the
mixture or trade name product with the other amounts of the
same chemical imported, processed or otherwise used at your
facility for threshold and release determinations. If the facility
knows that a mixture contains a toxic chemical but no concen-
tration information is provided by the supplier, then the facility
does not have to consider the amount of the toxic chemical
present in that mixture for purposes of threshold and release
determinations. If a facility owner/operator only knows the
lower bound concentration of a toxic chemical present in a
mixture, the owner/operator should base theirthreshold deter-
mination on that lower bound concentration number. If only a
range of concentrations is available for a toxic chemical
present in a mixure, the owner/operator should use an aver-
age of the low and high concentrations numbers for threshold
determinations. (See Figure C on page 13 for more informa-
tion.)
De yinimis Limitation. A listed toxic chemical does not have
to be considered if it is present in a mixture at a concentration
below a specified de minimis level. The de minimis level is
1.0%, or 0.1% if the chemical meets the OSHA carcinogen
standard. See Table II for the de minimis value associated
with each listed toxic chemical. For mixtures that contain more
than one member of a listed chemical category, the de minimis
level applies to the aggregate concentration of all such members
and not to each individually. EPA included the de minimis
exemption in the rule as a burden reducing step, primarily
because facilities are not likely to have information on the
presence of a chemical in a mixture or trade name product
beyond that available in the product's MSDS. The de minimis
levels are consistent with OSHA requirements for develop-
ment of MSDS information concerning composition.
-------
Page 12
Forthreshold determinations, the demimmislimitation applies
to:
3 A listed toxic chemical in a mixture or trade name product
received by the facility.
3 A listed toxic chemical manufactured during a process
where the chemical remains in a mixture or trade name
product distributed by the facility.
The de minimis does apt apply to:
D A chemical manufactured at the facility that does not
remain in a product distributed by the facility. A threshold
determination must be made on the annual quantity of the
chemical manufactured regardless of the concentration.
For example, quantities of formaldehyde created as a
result of waste treatment must be applied toward the
threshold for "manufacture" of this chemical, regardless
of the concentration of this chemical in the wastestream.
J Chemicals in ores, wastes, etc., that undergo beneficia-
tion for purposes of production of that chemical. For
example, a company recovers silver by processing waste
matenal containing silver at less than 1% total weight of
the material. Although silver is received at less than the
da minimis concentration, the de minimis would not apply
because the process concentrates and produces silver as
an end product.
In general, when the de minimis applies to threshold determi-
nations and the concentration of the chemical in the mixture is
below the de minimis, then you are not required to report
releases associated with the processing or use of the chemical
in that mixture. Note that it is possible to meet the threshold
for a chemical on a facili*y-wide basis, but not be required to
calculate releases from a particular process because that
process involves only mixtures containing the chemical below
the de minimis level.
Application of the de minimis limitation to process streams
must also be reviewed. Mixtures containing toxic chemicals
can be added to a process or generated within a process. In
both cases (assuming reporting thresholds are exceeded) a
facility is required to consider and report releases from the
process up to the point where the concentration of the chemi-
cal falls below the de minimis level. For example, a 10%
solution of a listed chemical is mixed into a formulated cleaning
solution, resulting in a final concentration of less than 1%.
Releases such as air emissions, from the mixing vessel must
be counted, but releases from the finished formulation are not
counted because the de minimis exemption applies.
Similarly, in processes where the listed toxic chemical occurs
at a concentration below the de minimis level and is processed
to a concentration above the de minimis level, the portion of
the process where the toxic chemical is present above the de
minimis level must be considered for threshold and release
determinations, for example, an impurity contained in a sol-
vent that is concentrated to above the de minimis level in a
process. Beneficiation activities involving listed toxic chemi-
cals present in ores, natural gas, and crude oil are an excep-
tion and require threshold and release determinations regard-
less of concentration of the listed toxic chemical(s) involved in
the beneficiation process.
Supplier Notification. In 1989 and subsequent years, suppli-
ers of facilities in SIC codes 20-39 are required to develop and
distribute a notice if the mixtures or trade name products that
they manufacture or process, and subsequently distribute,
contain listed toxic chemicals. These notices are distributed to
other companies in SIC codes 20-39 or to companies that sell
the productto facilities in SIC codes 20-39 If a Matenal Safety
Data Sheet (MSDS) is not required for the mixture or trade
name product, the notification must be in written form (i.e.,
letter or attachment to a MSDS). Otherwise, the notice must
be incorporated into or attached to the MSDS for that product
The supplier notification requirement began with the first
shipment of a product in 1989 and must accompany the first
shipment each year thereafter. In addition, a new or revised
notice must be sent if a change occurs in the product which
affects the weight percent of a listed chemical or if it is discov-
ered that a previous notice did not property identify the
chemicals orthe percentage by weight For more information
on supplier notification, see Appendix E.
If listed toxic chemicals are present equal to cr acove the de
minimis cut-off level, your supplier must identify the specific
components as they appear in Table II and provide their
percentage composition by weight in the mixture or product. If
your supplier maintains that the identity of a toxic chemical is
a trade secret, a generic identity that is structurally descriptive
must be supplied on the notice. A maximum concentration
level must be provided if your supplier contends that chemical
composition information is a trade secret. In either case, you
do not need to make a trade secret claim on behalf of your
supplier (unless you consider your use of the proprietary
mixture a trade secret). On Form R, identify the toxic chemical
you are reporting according to its generic name provided in the
notification. (See the instructions for Part III. Section 2 on
page 18 for more information.) If the listed chemical is present
below the de mtnimis level, no notification is required.

3.1 Facility Name and Location
Enter the name of your facility (plant site name or appropnate
facility designation), street address, city, county, state, zip
code, andTRI Facility Identification number (if appropriate), in
the space provided. Do not use a post office box number as
the address. The address provided should be the location
where the chemicals are manufactured, processed, or other-
wise used.
If you have submitted a Form R for previous reporting years,
a TRI Facility Identification Number has been assigned to your
facility. The TRI Facility Identification Number appears on the
peel-off mailing label on the coverthe Toxic Chemical Release
Inventory Reporting Package for 1989 (EPA 560/4-90-001)
you should have received directly from EPA. Remove this
mailing label from the back cover of the reporting package and
apply it to Part I, Section 3.1 of the blank Form R in Appendix
A. Then photocopy that page for use as the master copy of
page 1 for all the reports you are submitting.
If you do not have a mailing label or cannot locate your TRI
Facility Identification Number, please contact the Emergency
Planning and Community Right-to-Know Information Hotline.
Enter your TRI Facility Identification number to each Form R
that your facility submits.
Enter NA to the space for the TRI Facility Identification
number, if this is your first submission of a Form R.
3.2 Full or Partial Facility Indication
A covered facility must report all releases of a listed chemical
if it meets a reporting threshold for that chemical. However, if
the facility is composed of several distinct establishments,
EPA allows these establishments to submit separate reports
for the chemical as long as all releases of the chemical from
the entire facility are accounted for. Indicate in Section 3.2
whether your report is for the entire covered facility as a whole
or for part of a covered facility. Check box a. if the chemical
information applies to the entire covered facility. Check box b.
if the chemical information applies only to part of a covered
facility.
Section 313 requires reports by "facilities,* which are defined
as "all buildings, equipment, structures, and other stationary
items which are located on a single site or on contiguous or
adjacent sites and which are owned or operated by the same
person."
The SIC code system defines business "establishments" as
"distinct and separate economic activities [that] are performed
at a single physical location." Under section 372.30(c) of the
reporting rule, you may submit a separate Form R for each
establishment, or for groups of establishments, in your cov-
ered facility, provided that all releases of the toxic chemicals
from the entire covered facility are reported. This allows you
the option of reporting separately on the activities involving a
toxic chemical at each establishment, or group of establish-
ments (e.g., part of a covered facility), rather than submitting
a single Form R for that chemical for the entire facility.
However, if an establishment or group of establishments does
not manufacture, process, or otherwise use or release a toxic
chemical, you do not have to submit a report for that establish-
ment or group of establishments. (See also Section B.2.a on
page 5.)
3.3 Technical Contact
Enter the name and telephone number (including area code)
of a technical representative whom EPA or State officials may
contact for clarification of the information reported on Form R.
This contact person does not have to be the same person who
prepares the report or signs the certification statement and
does not necessarily need to be someone at the location of the
reporting facility; however, this person must be familiar with
the details of the report so that he or she can answer questions
about the information provided.
3.4 Public Contact
Enter the name and telephone number (including area code)
of a person who can respond to questions from the public
about the report. If you choose to designate the same person
as both the technical and the public contact, you may enter
"Same as Section 3.3" in this space. This contact person does
not have to be the same person who prepares the report or
signs the certification statement and does not necessarily
need to be someone at the location of the reporting facility.
3.5 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code
Enter the appropriate 4-digit primary Standard Industrial Clas-
sification (SlC)codeforyourfacility (Table I, pages 34-39, lists
the SIC codes within the 20-39 range). If the report covers
more than one establishment, enter the pnmary 4-digit SIC
code for each establishment. You are required to enter SIC
codes only for those establishments within the facility that fall
within SIC codes 20 to 39. If you do not know your SIC code,
check with yourfinancial office or contact your local Chamber
of Commerce or State Department of Labor.
3.6 Latitude and Longitude
Enter the latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates of your facil-
ity. Sources of these data include EPA permits (e.g., NPDES
permits), county property records, facility blueprints, and site
plans. Instructions on how to develop these coordinates can
be found in Appendix F. Enter only numerical data. Do not
preface numbers with letters such as N or W to denote the
hemisphere.

3.7 Facility Dun and Bradstreet Number
Enter the 9-digit number assigned by Dun and Bradstreet
(O&B) for your facility or each establishment within your
facility. These numbers code the facility for financial pur-
poses. This number may be available from your facility's
treasurer or financial officer. You can also obtain the numbers
from your local Dun and Bradstreet office (check the telephone
book White Pages). If none of your establishments has been
assigned a D & B number, enter not applicable, NA, in box a.
If only some of your establishments have been assigned Dun
and Bradstreet numbers, enter those numbers in Section 3.7.
3.8 EPA Identification Number
The EPA I.D. Number is a 12-digit number assigned to
facilities covered by hazardous waste regulations under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). Facilities
not covered by RCRA are not likely to have an assigned I.D.
Number. If your facility is not required to have an I.D. Number,
enter not applicable, NA, in box a. If your facility has been
assigned EPA Identification Numbers, you must enter those
numbers in the spaces provided in Section 3.8.
3.9 NPDES Permit Number
Enter the numbers of any permits your facility holds under the
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
even if the permit(s) do not pertain to the toxic chemical being
reported. This 9-digit permit number is assigned to yourfacility
by EPA orthe State underthe authority of the Clean Water Act.
If yourfacility does not have a permit, enter not applicable, NA,
in box a.
3.10 Receiving Streams or Water Bodies
In Section 3.10 you are to enter the name(s) of the stream(s)
or water body(ies) to which yourfacility directly discharges the
chemicals you are reporting. A total of six spaces are
provided, lettered a through 1. The information you provide
relates directly to the discharge quantity information required
in Part III, Section 5.3. You can complete Section 3.10 in one
of two ways. You can enter only those stream names that
relate to the specific chemical that is the subject of the report
or, you can enter all stream names that relate to all covered
chemicals being reported by the facility. Enter the name of
each receiving stream or surface water body to which the
chemical being reported is directly discharged. Report the
name of the receiving stream or water body as it appears on
the NPDES permit for the facility. If the stream is not covered
by a permit, enterthe name of the off-site stream or water body
by which it is publicly known. Also do not list a series of
streams through which the chemical flows. Be sure to include
the receiving stream(s) or water body(ies) that receive storm-
water runoff from your facility. Do not enter names of streams
to which off-site treatment plants discharge. Enter not appli-
cable. NA, in Section 3.1Qa. if you do not discharge any listed
toxic chemicals to surface water bodies.
3.11 Underground Injection Well Code (UIC)
Identification Number
If yourfacility has a permit to inject a waste containing the toxic
chemical into Class 1 deep wells, enterthe 12-digrt Under-
ground Injection Well Code (UIC) identification number as-
signed by EPA or by the State underthe authority of the Sate
Drinking Water Act. If your facility does not hold such a
permrt(s), enter not applicable, NA, in Section 3.11 a. You are
only required to provide the UIC number for wells that receive
the toxic chemical being reported.

You must provide information on your parent company. For
purposes of Form R, a parent company is defined as the
highest level company, located in the United States, that di-
rectly owns at least 50 percent of the voting stock of your
company. If yourfacility is owned by a foreign entity, enter not
applicable, NA, in this space. Corporate names should be
treated as parent company names for companies with multiple
facility sites. For example, the Bestchem Corporation is not
owned or controlled by any other corporation but has sites
throughoutthe country whose names begin with Bestchem. In
this case, Bestchem Corporation would be listed as the
"parent" company.
4.1 Name of Parent Company
Enterthe name of the corporation or other business entity that
is your ultimate US parent company, tf your facility has no
parent company, enter not applicable, NA.
4.2 Parent Company's Dun & Bradstreet Number

PART II. OFF-SITE LOCATIONS TO WHICH TOXIC
CHEMICALS ARE TRANSFERRED IN WASTES
In this part of the form, you are required to list all off-site
locations to which you transfer wastes containing toxic chemicals.
Do not list locations to which products containing toxic chemi-
cals are shipped for sale or distribution in commerce or for
further use. Also, do not list locations to which wastes
containing chemicals are sold or sent for recovery, recycling,
or reuse of the toxic chemicals. The information that you enter
in this section relates to data you will report in Part III, Section
6.
You may complete Part II for only the off-site locations that
apply to the specific chemical cited in a particular report oj; you
can list all off-site locations that apply to all chemicals being
reported and include a photostatic copy of Part II with each
individual report. List only publicly owned treatment works
(POTWs) and off-site treatment or disposal facilities.
1. Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTWs)
Enter the name and address of each POTW to which your
facility discharges wastewater containing toxic chemicals for
which you are reporting. If you do not discharge wastewater
containing the reported toxic chemicals to a POTW, enter not
applicable, NA, in the POTW name line in Part II, Section 1.1.
If you discharge such wastewater to more than two POTWs,
use additional copies of Part II. Cross through the printed
numbers and write in numbers forthese locations in ascending
order (e.g., 1.3,1.4). Check the box at the bottom of the page
and indicate the number of additional pages of Part II that are
attached.
2. Other Off-Site Locations
Enter in the spaces provided, the name and address of each
location (other than POTWs) to which you ship or transfer
wastes containing toxic chemicals. Do not include locations to
which you ship the toxic chemical for recycle or reuse. If you
do not ship ortransfer wastes containing toxic chemicals to off-
site locations, enter not applicable, NA in the off-site location
name line of 2.1. Also enter the EPA Identification Number
(RCRA I.O. Number) for each such location if known to you.
This number may be found on the Uniform Hazardous Waste
Manifest, which is required by RCRA regulations. Also indi-
cate in the space provided whether the location is owned or
controlled by your facility oryour parent company, (f the facility
does not have a RCRA I.O. number, enter not applicable, NA,
in this space.
tf yourfacility transfers toxic chemicals to more than six off-site
locations, use additional copies of Part II. Cross through the
printed numbers and write in numbers for these locations in
ascending order (i.e., 2.7, 2.8). Check the box at the bottom
of the page and indicate the number of additional pages of Part
II that are attached.
EXAMPLE 5: Off-Site Locations
Yourfacility is involved in chrome plating of metal parts, which
produces an aqueous plating waste that is treated on-site to
recover chromium sludge. The effluent from the on-site
treatment plant, which contains chromium compounds (a
listed toxic chemical), is piped to a POTW. The chromium
sludge is transferred to an off-site, privately owned firm for the
recovery of the chromium.
You must report the location of the POTW in Section 1 in Part
II of Form R. Do not report any information about the on-site
treatment plant in this section. You are not required to report
the location of the off-site, pnvately owned recovery firm or
provide any information concerning off-site recovery because
recycling or reuse of toxic chemicals is exempt from reporting.
PART III. CHEMICAL-SPECIFIC INFORMATION
In Part III, you are to identify the toxic chemical being reported.
You must indicate the general uses and activities involving the
chemical at your facility. In Part III, you will also enter
quantitative data relating to releases of the chemical from the
facility to air, water, and land. Quantities of the chemical
transferred to off-site locations, identified in Part II, are also
reported in this part. Any waste ireatment information for on-
site treatment of wastestreams containing the toxic chemical
are also required to be reported on Part III. An optional section
is included in this part that allows you to report waste minimi-
zation information associated with the chemical.
1.1 [Reserved]
p
1.2 CAS Number
Enter the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry number
in Section 1.2 exactly as it appears in Table II, pages 40-48, for
the chemical being reported. CAS numbers are cross-refer-
enced with an alphabetical list of chemical names in Table II of
these instructions. If you are reporting one of the chemical
categories in Table II (e.g., copper compounds), enter not
applicable, NA, in the CAS number space.
If you are making a trade secret claim, you must report the
CAS number on your unsanitized Form R and unsanitized
substantiation form. Do not include the CAS number on your
sanitized Form R and sanitized substantiation form (see page
1 for more information).
1.3 Chemical or Chemical Category Name
Enter the name of the chemical or chemical category exactly
as it appears in Table II. If the chemical name is followed by
a synonym in parentheses, report the chemical by the name
that directly follows the CAS number (i.e., not the synonym).
-------
Page 18
Form R - Part
If the listed chemical identity is actually a product trade name
(e.g., dicofol), the 9th Collective Index name is listed below it
in brackets. You may report either name in this case.
Do not list the name of a chemical that does not appear in
Table II, such as individual members of a reportable category.
For example, if you use silver nitrate, do not report silver nitrate
with its CAS number. Report this chemical as "silver com-
pounds' which has no CAS number.
If you are making a trade secret claim, you must report the
specific chemical identity on your unsanitized Form R and
unsanitized substantiation form. Do not report the chemical
name on your sanitized Form R and sanitized substantiation
form. Include a generic name in Part III, Section 1.4 of your
sanitized Form R report.
1.4 Generic Chemical Name
Complete Section 1.4 only if you are claiming the specific
chemical identity of the toxic chemical as a trade secret and
have marked the trade secret block in Part I, Section 1.1 on
page 1 of Form R. Enter a generic chemical name that is
descriptive of the chemical structure. You must limit the
generic name to seventy characters (e.g., numbers, letters,
spaces, punctuation) or less. Do not enter mixture names in
Section 1.4; see Section 2 below.
In-house plant codes and other substitute names that are not
structurally descriptive of the chemical identity being withheld
as a trade secret are not acceptable as a generic name. The
generic name must appear on both sanitized and unsanitized
Form R's, and the name must be the same as that used on
your substantiation forms. The Emergency Planning and
Community Right-to-Know Information Hotline can provide
you with assistance in selecting an appropriate generic name.
2. Mixture Component Identity
Do not complete this section if you have completed Section 1
of Part III. Report the generic name provided to you by your
supplier in the section if your supplier is claiming the chemical
identity proprietary or trade secret. Do not answer "yes" in
Part I, Section 1.1 on page 1 of the form if you complete this
section. You do not need to supply trade secret substantiation
forms since it is your supplier who is claiming the material a
trade secret.
Enter the generic chemicaJ name in this section only if the
following three conditions apply:
1. You determine that the mixture contains a listed toxic
chemical but the only identity you have for that chemical
is a generic name;
2. You know either the specific concentration of that toxic
chemical component or a maximum concentration level;
and
3. You multiply the concentration level by the total annual
amount of the whole mixture used (or processed) and
determine that you meet the use or process threshold for
that single, generically identified mixture component.
EXAMPLE 6: Mixture Containing Unidentified Toxic
Chemical
Your facility uses 20,000 pounds of a solvent that your supplier
has told you contains 80 percent "chlorinated aromatic," their
generic name for a chemical subject to reporting under section
313. You therefore know that you have used 16,000 pounds
of some listed toxic chemical which exceeds the "otherwise
use" threshold. You would file a Form R and enter the name
"chlorinated aromatic" in the space provided in Part III, Section
2.
3. Activities and Uses of the Chemical at the Facility
Indicate whether the chemical is manufactured (including
imported), processed, or otherwise used at the facility and the
general nature of such activities and uses at the facility during
the calendar year. Report activities that take place only at your
facility, not activities that take place at otherfacilities involving
your products. You must check all the blocks in this section
that apply. If you are a manufacturer of the chemical, you must
check a and/or b, and at least one of c, d, e, or f. Refer to the
definitions of "manufacture,""process," and "otherwise use" in
the general information section of these instructions or section
372.3 of the rule for additional explanations.
3.1 Manufacture the Chemical
Persons who manufacture (including import) the toxic chemi-
cal must check at least one:
a. Produce - the chemical is produced at the facility.
b. Import the chemical is imported by the facility into the
Customs Territory of the United States. (See page 6 of
these instructions for further clarification of import.)
And check at least one:
c. For on-site use/processing the chemical is produced or
imported and then further processed or otherwise used at
the same facility. If you check this block, you must also
check at least one item in Part III, Section 3.2 or 3.3.
-------
Form R - Part
Page 19
d. For sale/distribution the chemical is produced or im-
ported specifically for sale or distribution outside the
manufacturing facility.
e. As a byproduct - the chemical is produced coincidental^
during the production, processing, otherwise use, or dis-
posal of another chemical substance or mixture and,
following its production, is separated from that other
chemical substance or mixture. Chemicals produced and
released as a result of waste treatment or disposal are
also considered byproducts.
f. As an impurity- the chemical is produced coincidentally as
a result of the manufacture, processing, or otherwise use
of another chemical but is not separated and remains pri-
marily in the mixture or product with that other chemical.
3.2 Process the Chemical
(Incorporatlve-type activities)
a. As a reactant - A natural or synthetic chemical used in
chemical reactions forthe manufacture of another chemi-
cal substance or of a product. Includes, but is not limited
to, feedstocks, raw materials, intermediates, and initia-
tors.
b. As a formulation component A chemical added to a
product (or product mixture) prior to further distribution of
the product that acts as a performance enhancer during
use of the product. Examples of chemicals used in this
capacity include, but are not limited to, additives, dyes,
reaction diluents, initiators, solvents, inhibitors, emulsifi-
ers, surfactants, lubricants, flame retardants, and Theol-
ogical modifiers.
c. As an article component - A chemical substance that
becomes an integral component of an article distributed
for industrial, trade, orconsumer use. One example is the
pigment components of paint applied to a chair that is
sold.
d. Repackaging only- Processing or preparation of a chemi-
cal (or product mixture) for distribution in commerce in a
different form, state, or quantity. This includes, but is not
limited to, the transfer of material from a bulk container,
such as a tank truck to smaller cans or bottles.
3.3 Otherwise Use the Chemical
(non-lncorporatlve-type activities)
a. As a chemical processing aid- A chemical that is added to
a reaction mixture to aid in the manufacture or synthesis
of another chemical substance but is not intended to
remain in or become part of the product or product
mixture. Examples of such chemicals include, but are not
limited to, process solvents, catalysts, inhibitors, initia-
tors, reaction terminators, and solution buffers.
b. As a manufacturing aid - A chemical that aids the manu-
facturing process but does not become part of the result-
ing product and is not added to the reaction mixture during
the manufacture or synthesis of another chemical sub-
stance. Examples include, but are not limited to, process
lubricants, metalworking fluids, coolants, refrigerants,
and hydraulic fluids.
c. Ancillary or other use - A chemical in this category that is
used at a facility for purposes other than as a chemical
processing aid or manufacturing aid as described above.
Includes, but is not limited to, cleaners, degreasers, lubri-
cants, fuels, and chemicals used for treating wastes.
EXAMPLE 7: Activities and Uses of Toxic Chemicals
In the example below, it is assumed that the threshold quan-
tities for manufacture, process, or otherwise use (25.000
pounds, 25,000 pounds, and 10,000 pounds, respectively, for
1989) have been exceeded and the reporting of listed chemi-
cals is therefore required.
Yourf acility receives toluene and naphthalene (both listed
toxic chemicals) from an off-site location. You react the
toluene with air to form benzoic acid and react the
naphthalene with sulfuric acid, which forms phthalic acid
and also produces sulfur dioxide fumes. Your facility
processes toluene and naphthalene. Both are used as
reactants to produce benzoic acid and phthalic acid,
chemicals not on the section 313 list.
The phthalic acid and benzoic acid are reacted to form a
reaction intermediate. The reaction intermediate is dis-
solved in sulfuric acid, which precipitates terephthalic acid
(TPA). Fifty percent of the TPA is sold as a product and
50 percent is further processed at your facility into polyes-
ter fiber. The TPA is treated with ethylene glycol to form
an intermediate product, which is condensed to polyester.
Your company manufactures terephthalic acid, a listed
chemical, both for sate/distribution as a commercial prod-
uct and for on-site use/processing as a feedstock in the
polyester process. Because it is a reactant. it is also
processed. See Figure D for how this information would
be reported in Part III, Section 3 of Form R.
Yourfacilitv also uses, as well as processes, sulfuric acid.
a listed substance, as it serves as a process solvent to
precipitate terephthalic acid.

If the toxic chemical present at your facility was part of a
mixture or trade name product, determine the maximum
quantity of the chemical present at the facility by calculating
the weight of the toxic chemical only. Do not include the weight
of the entire mixture or trade name product. See section
372.30(b) of the reporting rule for further information on how
to calculate the weight of the chemical in the mixture or trade
name product. For chemical categories (e.g., copper com-
pounds), include all chemicals in the category when calculat-
ing the weight of the toxic chemical.
5. Releases of the Chemical to the Environment
On-Site
In Section 5, you must account for the total aggregate releases
of the toxic chemical to the environment from your facility for
the calendar year. Releases to the environment include
emissions to the air, discharges to surface waters, and on-site
releases to land and underground injection wells. If you have
no releases to a particular media (e.g., stack air), enter not
applicable, NA; dp not leave any part of Section 5 blank.
Check the box on the last line of this section if you use Part IV,
the supplemental information sheet.
You are not required to count, as a release, quantities of atoxic
chemical that are lost due to natural weathering or corrosion,
normal/natural degradation of a product, or normal migration
of a chemical from a product. For example, amounts of a
covered toxic chemical that migrate from plastic products in
storage do not have to be counted in estimates of releases of
that chemical from the facility. Also, amounts of listed metal
compounds (e.g., copper compounds) that are lost due to
normal corrosion of process equipment do not have to be
considered as releases of coppercompounds from the facility.
All air releases of the chemical from the facility must be
accounted for. Do not enter information on individual emission
points or releases. Enter only the total release. If there is
doubt about whether an air release is a point or non-point
release, you must identify the release as one or the other
rather than leave items 5.1 and 5.2 blank. Instructions for
columns A, B, and C follow the discussions of Sections 5.1
through 5.5.
5.1 Fugitive or Non-Point Air Emissions
Report the total of all releases to the air that are not released
through stacks, vents, ducts, pipes, or any other confined air
stream. You must include (1) fugitive equipment leaks from
valves, pump seals, flanges, compressors, sampling connec-
tions, open-ended lines, etc.; (2) evaporative losses from
surface impoundments and spills; (3) releases from building
ventilation systems; and (4) any other fugitive or non-point air
emissions.
5.2 Stack or Point Air Emissions
Report the total of all releases to the air that occur through
stacks, vents, ducts, pipes, or other confined air streams. You
must include storage tank emissions. Air releases from air
pollution control equipment would generally fall in this cate-
gory.
5.3 Discharges to Receiving Streams or Water Bodies
Enter the applicable letter code for the receiving stream or
water body from Section 3.10 of Part I of the form. Also, enter
the total annual amount of the chemical released from all
discharge points at the facility to each receiving stream or
water body. Include process outfalls such as pipes and open
trenches, releases from on-site wastewater treatment sys-
tems, and the contribution from stormwater runoff, if appli-
cable (see instructions for column C below). Do not include
discharges to a POTW or other off-site wastewater treatment
facilities in this section. These off-site transfers must be
reported in Part III, Section 6 of the form.
Discharges of listed acids (e.g., hydrogen flouride; hydrogen
chloride; nitric acid; phosphoric acid; and sulfuric acid) may be
reported as zero if the discharges have been neutralized to pH
6 or above. For discharges of listed bases, a zero release may
be reported if the discharge has been neutralized to pH 9 or
below.

5.4 Underground Injection On-Srte
Enter the total annual amount of the chemical that was injected
into all wells, including Class I wells, at the facility.
5.5 Releases to Land On-SHe
Four predefined subcategories for reporting quantities re-
leased to land within the boundaries of the facility are pro-
vided. Do not report land disposal at off-site locations in this
section.
5.5.1 Landfill - Typically, the ultimate disposal method for
solid wastes is landfilling. Leaks from landfills need not be
reported as a release because the amount of the toxic chemi-
cal in the landfill as already been reported as a release.
5.5.2 Land treatment/application farming -- Another dis-
posal method is land treatment in which a waste containing a
listed chemical is applied onto or incorporated into soil. While
this disposal method is considered a release to land, any vola-
tilization of listed chemicals into the air occurring during the
disposal operation must be reported as a fugitive air release in
Section 5.1 of Form R.
5.5.3 Surface Impou ndment -- A natural topographic depres-
sion, man-made excavation, or diked area formed primarily of
earthen materials (although some may be lined with man-
made materials), which is designed to hold an accumulation of
liquid wastes or wastes containing free liquids. Examples of
surface impoundments are holding, settling, storage, and
elevation pits; ponds; and lagoons. If the pit, pond, or lagoon
is intended for storage or holding without discharge, it would
be considered to be a surface impoundment used as a final
disposal method.
Quantities of the chemical released to surface impoundments
that are used merely as part of a wastewater treatment
process generally mustfloibe reported in this section. How-
ever, if the impoundment accumulates sludges containing the
chemical, you must include an estimate in this section unless
the sludges are removed and otherwise disposed of (in which
case they should be reported under the appropriate section of
the form). For the purposes of this reporting, storage tanks are
not considered to be a type of disposal and are not to be
reported in this section of the form.
5.5.4 Other disposal -- Includes any amount of a listed toxic
chemical released to land that does not fit the categories of
landfills, land treatment, or surface impoundment. This other
disposal would include any spills or leaks of listed toxic
chemicals to land. For example, 2,000 pounds benzene leaks
from a underground pipeline into the land at a facility. Because
the pipe was only a few feet from the surface at the erupt point,
30 percent of the benzene evaporates into the air. The 600
pounds released to the air would be reported as a fugitive air
release (Section 5.1) and the remaining 1400 pounds would
be reported as a release to land, other disposal (Section
5.5.4).
5.A Total Release
Only on-site releases of the toxic chemical to the environment
for the calendar year are to be reported in this section of the
form. The total releases from your facility do not include
transfers or shipments of the chemical from your facility for
sale or distribution in commerce, or of wastes to other facilities
fortreatmentordisposal (see Part III, Section 6). Both routine
releases, such as fugitive airemissions, and accidental or non-
routine releases, such as chemical spills, must be included tn
your estimate of the quantity released. EPA requires no more
than two significant digits when reporting releases (e.g., 7521
pounds would be reported as 7500 pounds).
Releases of Less Than One Pound. Total annual releases or
off-site transfers of a toxic chemical from the facility of less
than 1 pound may be reported in one of several ways. You
should round the value to the nearest pound. If the estimate
is 0.5 pounds or greater, you should either check the range
bracket of "1-499" in column A.1 or enter "1" in column A.2. Do
flSiuse both columns A.1 and A.2. If the release is less than
0.5 pounds, you may round to zero and check the "0" bracket
in A.1.
Note that total annual releases of less than 0.5 pounds from
the processing or otherwise use of an article maintains the
article status of that item. Thus, if the only releases you have
are from processing an article, and such releases are less than
0.5 pounds per year, you are not required to submit a report for
that chemical. The 0.5 pound release determination does not
apply to just a single article. It applies to the cumulative
releases from the processing or use of that same type of art tele
(e.g., sheet metal or plastic film) that occurs over the course
of the calendar year.
Zero Releases. If you have no releases of a toxic chemical to
a particular medium, report either NA, not applicable, or 0, as
appropriate. Report NA only when there is no possibility a
release could occur to a specific media or off-site location. If
a release to a specific media or off-site location could occur,
but either no release occurred orthe annual aggregate release
was less than 0.5 pounds, report zero. However, if you report
zero releases, a basis of estimate must be provided in column
B. For example, if hydrochloric acid is involved in the facility
processing activities but the facility neutralizes the wastestreams
to a pH of 6-9, then the facility reports a 0 release for the
chemical. If the facility has no underground injection well, it
enters NA for that item on the form, tf the facility does not
landfill the acidic waste, it enters NA for landfills.

5.A.1 Reporting Ranges
For reports submitted for calendar years 1987, 1988, and
1989 only, you may take advantage of range reporting for
releases to an environmental medium that are less than 1,000
pounds for the year. If you choose this option, mark one of the
three boxes, 0, 1-499, or 500-999, that corresponds to re-
leases of the chemical to the appropriate environmental medium
(i.e., any line item). You are not required, however, to use
these range check boxes; you have the option of providing a
specific value in column A.2, as described below. However, dfi
not mark a range and also enter a specific estimate in A.2.
5.A.2 Enter Estimate
For releases to any medium that amount to 1,000 pounds or
more for the year, you must provide an estimate in pounds per
year in column A.2. Any estimate provided in column A.2
should be reported to no more than two significant figures.
This estimate should be in whole numbers. Do not use decimal
points.
If you do not use the range reporting option, provide your
estimates of total annual releases (in pounds) in column A.2.
Calculating Releases - To provide the release information
required in columns A. 1 and A.2 in this section, you must use
all readily available data (including relevant monitoring data
and emissions measurements) collected at your facility to
meet other regulatory requirements or as part of routine plant
operations, to the extent you have Such data for the toxic
chemical.
When relevant monitoring data or emission measurements
are not readily available, reasonable estimates of the amounts
released must be made using published emission factors,
material balance calculations, or engineering calculations.
You may not use emission factors or calculations to estimate
releases if more accurate data are available.
No additional monitoring or measurement of the quanti-
ties or concentrations of any toxic chemical released Into
the environment, or of the frequency of such releases, Is
required for the purpose of completing this form, beyond
that which Is required under other provisions of law or
regulation or as part of routine plant operations.
You must estimate, as accurately as possible, the quantity (in
pounds) of the chemical or chemical category that is released
annually to each environmental medium. Include only the
quantity of the toxic chemical contained in the wastestream in
this estimate. If the toxic chemical present at your facility was
part of a mixture or trade name product, calculate only the
releases of the chemical, not the other components of the
mixture or trade name product. If you are only able to estimate
the releases of the mixture or trade name product as a whole,
you must assume that the release of the toxic chemical is
proportional to its concentration in the mixture or trade name
product. See section 372.30(b) of the reporting rule forf urther
information on how to calculate the concentration and weight
of the toxic chemical in the mixture or trade name product.
If you are reporting a chemical category listed in Table II of
these instructions, rather than a specific chemical, you must
combine the release data for all chemicals in the listed chemi-
cal category (e.g., all glycol ethers or all chlorophenols) and
report the aggregate amount for that chemical category. Do
not report releases of each individual chemical in that category
separately. For example, if yourfacility releases 3,000 pounds
per year of 2-chlorophenol, 4,000 pounds per year of 3-chlo-
rophenol, and 4,000 pounds per year of 4-chlorophenol. you
should report that your facility releases 11,000 pounds per
year of chlorophenols.
For listed chemicals with the qualifier "solution," such as
ammonium nitrate, at concentrations of 1 percent (or 0.1
percent in the case of a carcinogen) or greater, the chemical
concentrations must be factored into threshold and release
calculations because threshold and release amounts relate to
the amount of chemical in solution, not the amount of solution.
For metal compound categories (e.g., chromium compounds),
report releases of only the parent metal. For example, a user
of various inorganic chromium salts would report the total
chromium released in each waste type regardless of the
chemical form (e.g., as the original salts, chromium ion, oxide)
and exclude any contribution to mass made by other species
in the molecule.
EXAMPLE 8: Calculating Releases
Your facility disposes of 14,000 pounds of lead chromate
(PbCrO4PbO) in an on-site landfill and transfers 16,000 pounds
of lead selenate (PbSeOJ to an off-site land disposal facility.
You would therefore be submitting three separate reports on
the following: lead compounds, selenium compounds, and
chromium compounds. However, the quantities you would be
reporting would be the pounds of "parent" metal being re-
leased ortransferred off-site. All quantities are based on mass
balance calculations (See Section 5.B for information on Basis
of Estimate and Section 6.C for treatment/disposal codes and
information on transfers of chemical wastes). You would
calculate releases of lead, chromium, and selenium by first
determining the percentage by weight of these metals in the
materials you use as follows:
Lead Chromate (PbCrO4 PbO) -
Molecular weight =
Lead 2 Pb-
Molecular weight =
Chromate 1 Cr -
Molecular weight =
546.37
207.2x2 = 414.4
51.996
-------
Page 24
Form R - Part 111
Lead chromate is therefore (% by weight)
(414.4/546.37) = 75.85% lead and (51.996/546.37) »
9.52% chromium
You can then calculate the total amount of the metals that you
must report, based on your knowledge that 14,000 pounds of
lead chromate contains:
14,000x0.7585 = 10,619 pounds of lead
14,000 x 0.0952 = 1,334 pounds of chromium
Similarly, lead selenate is (207.2/350.17) = 59.17% lead and
(78.96/350.17) = 22.55% selenium.
The total pounds of lead, chromium, and selenium released or
transferred from your facility are as follows:
Lead
Release:
0.7585 x 14,000 = 10,619 pounds from lead chromate
(round to 11,000 pounds)
Transfer:
0.5917 x 16,000 = 9,467 pounds from lead selenate
(round to 9,500 pounds)
(As an example, the releases and transfers of lead should be
reported as illustrated in Figure E on the pages 24-25.)
Chromium
Release:
0.0952 x 14,000 = 1,333 pounds from lead chromate
(round to 1,300 pounds)
Selenium
Transfer:
0.2255 x 16,000 = 3,608 pounds of selenium from lead
selenate (round to 3,600 pounds)
5.B Basis of Estimate
For each release estimate, you are required to indicate the
principal method used to determine the amount of release
reported. You will entera lettercode that identifies the method
that applies to the largest portion of the total estimated release
quantity.
For example, if 40 percent of stack emissions of the reported
substance were derived using monitoring data, 30 percent by
mass balance, and 30 percent by emission factors, you would
enter the code letter "M* for monitoring.
The codes are as follows:
M - Estimate is based on monitoring data or measurements
for the toxic chemical as released to the environment
and/or off-site facility.
C - Estimate is based on mass balance calculations, such
as calculation of the amount of the toxic chemical in
streams entering and leaving process equipment.
E - Estimate is based on published emission factors, such
as those relating release quantity to through-put or
equipment type (e.g., air emission factors).
O - Estimate is based on other approaches such as engi-
neering calculations (e.g., estimating volatilization using
published mathematical formulas) or best engineenng
judgment. This would include applying an estimated
removal efficiency to a waste stream, oven if the com-
position of the stream before treatment was funy identi-
fied through monitoring data.
If the monitoring data, mass balance, or emission factor used
to estimate the release is not spool ic to the toxic chemical
being reported, the form should identify the estimate as based
on engineering calculations or best engineering judgment.
If a mass balance calculation yields the flow rate of a waste-
stream, but the quantity of reported chemical in the waste-

Form R - Pan
stream is based on solubility data, report "O" because "engi-
neering calculations" were used as the basis of estimate of the
quantity of the chemical in the wastestream.
If the concentration of the chemical in the wastestream was
measured by monitoring equipment and the flow rate of the
wastestream was determined by mass balance, then the
primary basis of estimate is "monitoring" (M). Even though a
mass balance calculation also contributed to the estimate,
"Monitoring" should be indicated because monitoring data
was used to estimate the concentration of the waste stream.
Mass balance (C) should only be indicated if it is directly used
to calculate the mass (weight) of chemical released. Monitor-
ing data should be indicated as the basis of estimate only if the
chemical concentration is measured in the wastestream being
released into the environment. Monitoring data should not be
indicated, for example, if the monitoring data relates to a
concentration of the toxic chemical in other process streams
within the facility.
5.C Percent From Stormwater
This column relates only to Section 5.3 - Discharges to
receiving streams or water bodies. If your facility has monitor-
ing data on the amount of the chemical in stormwater runoff
(including unchanneled runoff), you must include that quantity
of the chemical in your water release in column A and. indicate
the percentage of the total quantity (by weight) of the chemical
contributed by stormwater in column C (Section 5.3c),
If your facility has monitoring data on the chemical and an
estimate of flow rate, you must use this data to determine the
percent stormwater.
If you have monitored stormwater but did not detect the
chemical, enter zero (0) in column C. If your facility has no
stormwater monitoring data for the chemical, enter not appli-
cable, NA, in this space on the form.
EXAMPLE 9: Retoasa* from Stormwater
Bi-monthly stormwater monitoring data shows that the aver-
age concentration of zinc in the stormwater runoff from your
facility from a biocide containing a zinc compound is 1.4
milligrams per liter, and the total annual stormwater discharge
from the facility is 7.527 million gallons. The total amount of
zinc discharged to surface waterthrough the plant wastewater
discharge (non-stormwater) is 250 pounds per year. The total
amount of zinc discharged with stormwater is:
(7,527,000 gallons stormwater) x (3.785 liters/gallon)
= 28,489,695 liters stormwater
(28,489,695 liters stormwater) x (1.4 mg. zinc/liter)
= 39,885.6 grams zinc
= 88 pounds zinc
The total amount of zinc discharged from all sources of your
facility is:
250 pounds zinc from wastewater discharge
+ 88 pounds zinc from stormwater runoff
338 pounds zinc total water discharge
Round to 340 pounds of zinc for report.
The percentage of zinc discharged through stormwater is
88/338 X 100 = 26%
If your facility does not have periodic measurements of storm-
water releases of the chemical, but has submitted chemical -
specific monitoring data in permit applications, then these ca:a
must be used to calculate the percent contribution 'rorn
stormwater. Rates of flow can be estimated by multiplying ;re
annual amount of rainfall by the land area of the facility ana
then multiplying that figure by the runoff coefficient. The run oil
coefficient represents the fraction of rainfall that does not
infiltrate into the ground but runs off as stormwater. The runoff
coefficient is directly related to how the land in the drainage
area is used. (See table below.)

EXAMPLE 10: Stormwatar Runoff
Your facility is located in a semi-arid region of the United
States which has an annual precipitation (including snowfall)
of 12 inches of rain. (Snowfall should be converted to the
equivalent inches of rain; assume one foot of snow is equiva-
lent to one inch of rain.) The area covered by your facility is 42
acres (about 170,000 square meters or 1,829,520 square
feet). The area of your facility is 50 percent unimproved area,
10 percent asphaltic streets, and 40 percent concrete pave-
ment.
The total stormwater runoff from your facility is therefore
calculated as follows:

6. Transfers of the Chemical In Waste to Off-Site
Locations
You must report in this section the total annual quantity of the
chemical sent to any of the off-site disposal, treatment, or
storage facilities for which you have provided an address in
Part II. You are not required to report quantities of the
chemical sent off-site for purposes of recycle or reuse. Report
the amount of the toxic chemical transferred off-site after any
on-site treatment or removal is completed. Report zero for
releases of listed acids and bases if they have been neutral-
ized to pH 6-9 prior to discharge to a POTW. See the
discussion under Section 5.3, Discharges to Receiving Streams
or Water Bodies (see page 21).
On line 6.1.1, report the amount of the listed chemical trans-
ferred to a POTW listed in Part II. Section 1. In the block
provided, enterthe numberfrom Part II, Section 1 correspond-
ing to the POTW to which the discharge is sent. For example,
if the discharge is sent to the location listed in Part II, Section
1.1, then enter "1" in the block provided (the first digit of this
section number has been preceded). If you transfer waste
containing the toxic chemical to more than one POTW, check
the box at the bottom of Section 6 and use the Part IV, the
Supplemental Information Sheet to report those transfers.
On lines 6.2.1 through 6.2.3, report the amount of the chemical
transferred to other off-site locations corresponding to those
listed in Part II, Sections 2.1 through 2.6, including privately
owned wastewater treatment facilities. In the block provided,
enterthe numberfrom Part II, Section 2 corresponding to the
off-site location to which the transfer is sent. For example, if
the transfer is sent to the location listed in Part II, Section 2.3,
enter "3* in the block provided. (The first digit of this section
number has been preceded.) If you need additional space,
check the box at the bottom of Section 6 and use the
Supplemental Information Sheet (Part IV, Section 6) to report
those transfers.
6.A Total Transfers
This column should be completed as described in the instruc-
tions for column A of Section 5 above. Enter the amount, in
pounds, of the toxic chemical that is being transferred, includ-
ing mixtures or trade name products containing the chemical.
Do not enter the total poundage of wastes. See Section 5 for
information on reporting off-site transfers of less than 1 pound.
As in Section 5, if the total amount transferred is less than
1,000 pounds, you may report a range, but only for reporting
years 1987, 1988, and 1989. Enter not applicable, NA, in
column A.2 if you have no off-site transfers of the listed chemi-
cal.
6.B Basis of Estimate
You must identify the basis for your estimate. Enter the letter
code that applies to the method by which the largest percent-
age of the estimate was derived. Use the same codes
identified in the instructions for column B of Section 5.
6.C Typ* of Treatment/Disposal
Enter one of the following codes to identify the type of
treatment or disposal method used by the off-site location for
the chemical being reported. You should use more than one
line for a single location when the toxic chemical is subject to
different disposal methods; the same location code may be
used more than once. You may have this information in your
copy of EPA Form SO, (tern S of the Annual/Biennial Hazard-
ous Waste Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Report (RCRA).
Applicable codes for Part III, Section 6(c) are as follows:

7. Waste Treatment Methods and Efficiency
In Section 7, you must provide the following information
related to the chemical for which releases are being reported:
(A) the general wastestream types containing the chemical
being reported; (B) the waste treatment methods used on all
wastestreams containing the chemical; (C) the range of con-
centrations of the chemical in the influent to the treatment
method; (D) whether sequential treatment is used; (E) the
efficiency or effectiveness of each treatment method in re-
moving the chemical; and (F) whetherthe treatment efficiency
figure was based on actual operating data. Use a separate line
in Section 7 for each treatment method used on a waste-
stream.
In this section, report only information about treatment of
wastestreams at. your facility, not about off-site treatment. If
you do not perform on-site treatment of wastes containing the
chemical being reported, check the Not Applicable (NA) space
at the top of Section 7.
7.A General Wastestream
For each waste treatment method, indicate the type of waste-
stream containing the chemical that is treated. Enterthe letter
code that corresponds to the general wastestream type:
A = Gaseous (gases, vapors, airborne particulates)
W = Wastewater (aqueous waste)
L = Liquid waste (non-aqueous waste)
S = Solid waste (including sludges and slurries)
If a waste is a mixture of water and organic liquid, you must
report it as wastewater unless the organic content exceeds 50
percent. Slurries and sludges containing water must be
reported as solid waste if they contain appreciable amounts of
dissolved solids, or solids that may settle, such that the
viscosity or density of the waste is considerably different from
that of process wastewater.
7.B Treatment Method
Enter the appropriate code from one of the lists below for each
on-site treatment method used on a wastestream containing
the toxic chemical, regardless of whether the treatment method
actually removes the specific chemical being reported. Treat-
ment methods must be reported for each type of waste being
treated (i.e., gaseous wastes, aqueous wastes, liquid non-
aqueous wastes, and solids). The treatment codes, except for
the air emission treatment codes, are not restricted to any
medium.
Wastestreams containing the chemical may have a single
source or may be aggregates of many sources. For example,
process waterf rom several pieces of equipment at yourf acihty
may be combined prior to treatment. Report treatment meth-
ods that apply to the aggregate wastestream, as well as
treatment methods that apply to individual wastestreams. If
your facility treats various wastewater streams containing the
chemical in different ways, the different treatment methods
must each be listed separately.
If your facility has several pieces of equipment performing a
similar service, you may combine the reporting for such
equipment on a single line. It is not necessary to enter four
lines of data to coverfour scrubber units, for example, if ail four
are treating wastes of similar character (e.g., sulf uric acid mist
emissions), have similar influent concentrations, and have
similar removal efficiencies. If, however, any of these parame-
ters differ from one unit to the next, each scrubber must be
listed separately.

7.C Rang* of Influent Concentration
The form requires an indication of the range of concentration
of the toxic chemical in the wastestream (i.e., the influent) as
it typically enters the treatment equipment. Enter in the space
provided one of the following code numbers corresponding to
the concentration of the chemical in the influent:
1 = Greater than 1 percent
2 = 100 parts per million (0.01 percent) to
1 percent (10,000 parts per million)
3 = 1 part per million to 100 parts per million
4 = 1 part per billion to 1 part per million
5 * Less than 1 part per billion
[Note: Parts per million (ppm) is:
Q milligrams/kilogram (mass/mass) for solids and liquids;
Q cubic centimeters/cubic meter (volume/volume) for gases;
Q milligrams/literforsolutions or dispersions of the chemical
in water; and
Q milligrams of chemical/kilogram of air for particulates in
air. If you have paniculate concentrations (at standard
temperature and pressure) as grains/cubic foot of air,
multiply by 1766.6 to convert to parts per million; if in milli
grams/cubic meter, multiply by 0.773 to obtain parts per
million. Factors are for standard conditions of 0°C (32°F)
and 760 mmHg atmospheric pressure.)

7.D Sequential Treatment?
The blocks in this column may be used in the following case:
J Individual treatment steps are used in a series to treat the
chemical, but
3 You have no data on the individual efficiencies of each
step, but you are able to estimate the overall efficiency of
the treatment sequence.
To report sequential treatment:
j List the appropriate codes for the treatment steps in the
order that they occur (in column B) and then put an "X" in
the boxes in column 0 for all these sequential treatment
steps.
j Enter the appropriate code for the influent concentration
(in column C) for the first treatment step in the sequence.
Leave this item blank for the rest of the treatment steps in
the sequence.
3 Provide the overall treatment efficiency (in column E) for
the entire sequence by entering that value in connection
with the last treatment step in the sequence only. Enter
NA in column E for the efficiency of all preceding steps in
the sequence.
3 Mark yes or no in column F only in connection with the final
step in the sequence. Do not mark in this column for
preceeding steps in the sequence.
An example of how to use the sequential treatment option is
provided in Appendix C.
7.E Treatment Efficiency Estimate
In the space provided, enter the number indicating the per-
centage of the toxic chemical removed from the wastestream
through destruction, biological degradation, chemical conver-
sion, or physical removal. The treatment efficiency (ex-
pressed as percent removal) represents the mass or weight
percentage of chemical destroyed or removed, not merely
changes in volume or concentration of the chemical in the
wastestream. The efficiency refers only to the percent de-
struction, degradation, conversion, or removal of the listed
toxic chemical from the wastestream, not the percent conver-
sion or removal of other wastestream constituents which may
occur together with the listed chemical. The efficiency also
does not refer to the general efficiency of the method for any
wastestream. For some treatments, the percent removal will
represent removal by several mechanisms, as in as aeration
basin, where a chemical may evaporate, be biodegraded, or
be physically removed in the sludge.
Percent removal must be calculated as follows:
M-E1 x 100
I
where I = mass of the chemical in the influent wastestream and
E = mass of the chemical in the effluent wastestream.
Calculate the mass or weight of chemical in the wastestream
being treated by multiplying the concentration (by weight) of
the chemical in the wastestream by the flow rate. In most
cases, the percent removal compares the treated effluent to
the influent for the particular type of wastestream. However,
for some treatment methods, such as incineration or solidifica-
tion of wastewater, the percent removal of the chemical from
the influent wastestream would be reported as 100 percent
because the wastestream does not exist in a comparable form
after treatment. Some of the treatments (e.g., fuel blending
and evaporation) do not destroy, chemically convert, or physi-
cally remove the chemical from its wastestream. For these
treatment methods, an efficiency of zero must be reported.
For metal compounds, the calculation of the reportable con-
centration and treatment efficiency is based on the weight of
the parent metal, not on the weight of the metal compounds.
Metals are not destroyed, only physically removed or chemi-
cally converted from one form into another. The treatment
efficiency reported represents only physical removal of the
parent metal from the wastestream, not the percent chemical
conversion of the metal compound. If a listed treatment
method converts but does not remove a metal (e.g., chromium
reduction), the method must be reported, but the treatment
efficiency must be reported as zero.
Listed toxic chemicals which are strong mineral acids or bases
which are neutralized to a pH between 6-9 are considered
treated at a 100 percent efficiency.
All data available at your facility must be utilized to calculate
treatment efficiency and influent chemical concentration. You
are nal required to collect any new data for the purposes of th is
reporting requirement. If data are lacking, estimates rrust be
made using best engineering judgment or other methods.
7.F Based on Operating Data?
This column requires you to indicate "Yes" or "No" to whether
the treatment efficiency estimate is based on actual operating
data. For example, you would check "Yes" if the estimate is
based on monitoring of influent and effluent wastes under
typical operating conditions. For sequential treatment, do not
indicate "Yes" or "No" in column F for a treatment step unless
you have provided a treatment estimate in col jmn E.
If the efficiency estimate is based on published data for similar
processes or on equipment supplier's literature, or if you
otherwise estimated either the influent or affluent waste
comparison or the flow rate, check "No."

Form R - Part III
EXAMPLE 11: Waste Treatment Method*
One wastestream generated by your facility is aqueous waste
containing lead chromate, and lead selenate as discussed in
a previous example in these instructions. In this example, the
waste is transferred to off-site facilities after on-site wastewa-
tertreatment. The on-site wastewatertreatment plant precipi-
tates metal sludges. The wastewater is first treated with
sulfuric acid and sodium disulfate to reduce the hexavatent
chromate to trivalent chromium and then treated with lime to
raise the pH. This precipitates chromium hydroxide, zinc
hydroxide, and lead hydroxide, but does not remove the
selenium. The selenium is removed from the wastewater by
an ionic exchange system. The chromium, zinc, and lead
hydroxide sludge (solid) waste is transferred to an off-site land
disposal facility and the selenium-containing ion exchange
resin is transferred to an off-site facility for metal recovery (off-
site recovery should no! be reported). The treated wastewater
is sent to a POTW after neutralization. You would indicate the
following treatment methods for the on-site treatment of each
of the lead, zinc, chromium, and selenium compounds:
C21 - Chromium Reduction
C01 - Chemical Precipitation -- Lime or Sodium
Hydroxide
R22 - Metals Recovery -- Ion Exchange
C11 - Neutralization
All sequential treatment steps must be indicated for all the
metal compound categories reported even if the treatment
method does not affect the particular metal. For example,
ionic exchange must be reported as a treatment method for
lead, zinc, chromium, and selenium compounds, even though
the method affects only the selenium compound.
You would indicate a discharge to a POTW in Part III, Section
6.1.1 and the location of the POTW in Part II, Section 1.1. You
would also indicate the release of the metal sludge to an off-
site land disposal facility in Part III, Section 6.2.1.
8. POLLUTION PREVENTION: OPTIONAL
INFORMATION ON WASTE MINIMIZATION
Information provided in Part III. Section 8. of Form R is
optional. In this section, you may identify waste minimization
efforts relating to the reported toxic chemical. Waste minimi-
zation reduces the amount of the toxic chemical in wastes by
reducing waste generation or by recycling. This can be
accomplished by equipment changes, process modifications,
product reformulation, chemical substitutions, or other tech-
niques. Waste minimization refers exclusively to practices
which prevent the generation of wastes. Treatment or dis-
posal does not minimize waste and should not be reported in
this section. Recycling or reuse of a toxic chemical is consid-
ered waste minimization. Waste minimization applies to air
emissions and wastewater, as well as to liquid or solid mate-
rials that are released, disposed of, or treated. For example,
a program to recycle material from reactor cleaning could
reduce the amount of a listed chemical in wastewater pnor to
treatment. This reduction might not show up in annual reports
of releases to receiving streams (due to effective treatment,
for example) but would be captured in this section.
8.A Type of Pollution Prevention Modification
Enter the one code from the following list that best describes
the type of waste minimization activity:
M1 Recycling/Reuse On-Site
(e.g., solvent recovery still; vapor recovery system;
reuse of materials in a process)
M2 Recycling/Reuse Off-Site
(e.g., commercial recycler; toll recycling; at an off-site
company-owned facility)
M3 Equipment/Technology Modifications
(e.g., change from solvent to mechanical stripping;
modify spray systems to reduce overspray losses;
install floating roofs to reduce tank emissions; install
float guards to prevent tank overflow)
M4 Process Procedure Modifications
(e.g., change production schedule to minimize equip-
ment and feedstock change-overs; improved control
of operating conditions; segregation of wastes to
permit recycling)
M5 Reformulation/Redesign of Product
(e.g., change in product specifications; modify design
or composition; reduce or modify packaging)
M6 Substitution of Raw Materials
(e.g., change or eliminate additives; substitute water-
based for solvent-based coating materials, cleaners,
and pigments; increase purity of raw materials)
M7 Improved Housekeeping, Training, Inventory Control
(e.g., alter maintenance frequency; institute leak de-
tection program; improved inventory control; institute
training program on waste minimization)
M8 Other Waste Minimization Technique
(e.g., elimination of process; discontinuation of
product)
8.B Quantity of the Chemical In the Wastestream Prior
to Treatment/Disposal
You may report the change in the amount of the chemical
generated in either of two ways. You may provide the amount
of the chemical in waste produced in the reporting year and the
previous year, or you may report only the percent change.
-------
Form R - Part III
Page 32
Enter the total pounds of the toxic chemical contained In all
wastes from the reporting facility (air emissions, water
discharges, solid wastes and off-site transfers) generated
during the reporting year. This quantity may be the sum of all
the release amounts reported on Form R if there is no on-srte
treatment of the chemical. The quantity will often be greater
than the total reported release amounts because it includes
waste prior to treatment.
You should consider only the quantity of the chemical in the
waste. Do not report the total mass of the waste (i.e., do not
include the weight of water, soil, or waste constituents which
are not reportable on Form R).
Similarly, report total pounds of the toxic chemical contained
in all wastes generated forthe year priorto the reporting year.
Alternatively, to protect confidential information, you may wish
to enter only the percentage by which the weight of the
chemical in the wastes has changed. This figure may be
calculated using the following formula:
(We - Wp)
w
X100
where:
W
W
weight of toxic chemical in total wastes for
reporting year
weight of toxic chemical in total wastes for the
prior year
Note that the resulting figure will very often be negative
(indicating that the total amount of waste generated has been
reduced in the current year). Be sure to check-off the
appropriate sign for the value where indicated on Form R.
8.C Waste Minimization Index
Enterthe ratio of reporting-year production to the prior report-
ing-year production. This index should be calculated to most
closely reflect activities involving the chemical. To determine
the index, divide the production amount, which was chosen as
a measure of the current reporting year's production level, by
the prior year's production amount.
The index provides a means for users of the data to distinguish
effects due to changes in business activity from the effects
specifically due to waste minimization efforts. It is not neces-
sary to indicate the units on which the index is based. The
index should not be based on the dollar value of sales. Ex-
amples of acceptable indices include:
O Amount of chemical produced in 1989/amount of chemi-
cal produced in 1988. For example, a company manufac-
tures 200,000 pounds of a chemical in 1988 and 250,000
pounds of the same chemical in 1989. The index figure to
report would be 1.3 (1.25 rounded to two significant
digits).
3 Amount of paint produced in 1989/amount of paint pro-
duced in 1988.
3 Number of appliances coated in 1989/number of appli-
ances coated in 1988.
D Square feet of solar collector fabricated in 1989/square
feet of solar collector fabricated in 1988.
8.D Reason for Action
Finally, enterthe most appropriate code from the following list
that best describes the reason for initiating the waste minimi-
zation effort:
R1 Regulatory Requirement for the Waste
R2 Reduction of Treatment/Disposal Costs
R3 Other Process Cost Reduction
R4 Self-Initiated Review
R5 Other (e.g., discontinuation of product,
occupational safety).
EXAMPLE 12: WASTE MINIMIZATION (POLLUTION
PREVENTION)
A facility stores toluene in a large tank, and continuously uses
it as a raw material in a chemical process throughout the
reporting year. Priorto the current reporting year, annual air
emissions of toluene were 100,000 pounds from the tank, and
anothet 100,000 pounds from process emissions. In addition,
150,000 pounds of sludges are created from the process and
from storage tanks. The sludge contains a total of 25,000
pounds of toluene which was burned in an on-site incinerator.
The Perm R filed by the facility for the prior year indicated
200,000 pounds of toluene air emissions. The toluene con-
tained ir the sludge was identified as treated on-site, although
the pre- :reated amount of the toluene was not indicated on the
Form R, since this information is not required under section
313.
At the beginning of the current reporting year, the facility
installad a floating roof in its storage tank. This change
reduced fugitive emissions from the tank 90 percent, from
100,000 pounds per year to 10,000 pounds. Process emis-
sions and sludge generation remained the same.
3aseo on this information, Part III, Section 8 of Form R would
be completed as follows:

Note that only the weight of the toluene in the sludge (25,000
pounds) and not the full weight of the sludge (150,000 pounds)
is included in the calculation.
The facility would record 135,000 pounds as the current
reporting year waste generation (We), and 225,000 pounds as
the prior year's waste generation (Wp).
Alternatively, the facility may opt to report only the percent
change as follows:
(We»Wp)
w.
.40%
X100
135,000 - 225,000
225,000

Even though the floating roof achieved a 90% reduction of
toluene emissions from the tank, the overall facility-wide
change in toluene waste generation is negative 40% -- this is
the figure that should be reported in the "or percent change"
part of Section 8 of Form R.
Increases in waste generation, created by production in-
creases that were greater than the impact of waste minimiza-
tion, would be reported as a positive percentage change.
C. Ipdex
Usage of toluene at this facility remained the same for both
years, resulting in an index of 1.0. If usage had been reduced
by half, the index would have been 0.5.
D. Reason for Action
The facility identified code R3, Other Process Cost Reduction,
as the major reason for the waste minimization action.

EXAMPLE OF HOW A HYPOTHETICAL FACILITY PREPARED
SECTION 313 REPORTING FORM R
The following is a hypothetical example of how one manufac-
turer might complete the toxic chemical release inventory
reporting Form R. The facility information is purely fictitious
and does not represent any Known manufacturing facility. The
example begins with descriptions of the facility (a lead-acid
storage battery manufacturer) and of the production process
at the facility. The completion of each section of Form R is
explained and a copy of Form R, as it would be completed by
this facility, follows.
pounds from the remotely located lead smelter must be
reported separately, if manufactured, processed, or used in
amounts that exceed the thresholds.
Facility Description
The company manufactures lead-acid batteries at a plant in
New Mexico. The company also operates a lead smelter that
produces lead ingots at another location in New Mexico and
ships them to the battery plant. Lead scrap from the battery
plant is returned to the smelter for recovery and reuse.
The SIC code of the battery plant is 3691 (storage batteries);
the SIC code for the smelter is 3341 (secondary smelting and
refining of non-ferrous metals). A lead oxkje production plant
located adjacent to the battery plant, on the same property,
also falls under SIC code 3691.
The lead oxide plant and the battery plant are considered, for
the purposes of section 313 reporting requirements, to be a
single facility. The facility is required to submit a completed
Form R for each reported chemical or chemical category.
Because activities at the facility involve both metallic lead and
lead compounds (e.g., lead oxide), you may file a single
reporting form for metallic lead (CAS number 7439-92-1) and
a single form for lead compounds manufactured, processed,
or used at your facility. Alternatively, and preferably, you may
file one reporting form for all lead compounds (a single listed
category under section 313) present at yourfacility, including
metallic lead. In this example, metallic lead and all lead
compounds are reported on a single reporting form.
Lead-acid batteries are produced using lead, sulfuric acid,
additives such as antimony, and various other raw materials.
Your facility's battery production capacity is 5,000 batteries
per day, and the facility normally operates 24 hours per day,
300 days per year.
If sulfuric acid was manufactured, processed, or otherwise
used at the battery plant in amounts that exceed the applicable
thresholds, you would be required to report releases of sulfuric
acid separately. Similarly, releases of lead and tead.com-
Process Description
A lead-acid battery consists of electrolytic cells, each contain-
ing an anode of porous lead, a cathode of primarily lead
peroxide (PbO2), and electrodes of metallic lead. The anode
and cathode are separated by non-conducting material (e.g.,
plastic) and surrounded by an electrolytic (conductive) solu-
tion of sulfuric acid and water.
The first steps in the battery manufacturing process are gnd
casting and lead, oxide (PbO) production. Lead ingots are
melted and reformed into the grids which are trimmed. Lead
fumes from the lead melting and grid casting process are
exhausted to the atmosphere without emission controls. No
wastewater is produced.
The cast grids are made into battery anode and cathode plates
by the application of a lead oxide paste of 70 percent lead
oxide (PbO) and 30 percent metallic lead. Lead ingots are
tumbled in a ball mill with air producing lead oxide and fine lead
dust (referred to as "leady oxide"). Leady oxide participates
are entrained in the mill exhaust air, which is treated sequen-
tially by a cyclone separator and fabric filter. The used fabric
filter bags are shipped to a RCRA-permitted commercially
operated hazardous waste landfill located in Colorado. The
leady oxide production process does not produce wastewater.
The leady oxide is mixed with metallic lead, water, sulfuric
acid, and additives in a paste mixer to form lead oxide paste.
Lead and lead oxide dust are emitted from the mixer during
charging of the dry materials and during wet mix'ng. The mixer
is vented to a fabric filter during charging and to a wet scrubbe r
during wet mixing. The fabric filter and wet scrubber both vent
to the same stack. Wastewater produced from the wet scrub-
ber blowdown is treated on-site. Solids collected in a scrubber
sump are returned to the off-site smelter for recovery and
reuse. Solids collected in an evaporation pond are not
recovered. Mixing equipment washdown water is treated in a
multi-stage settler and entirely reused in the paste mixing
process. Sludge collected in the settler is recycled.
Small amounts of particulates are released to the atmosphere
during paste application. These emissions are not ducted to
a stack or controlled.
-------
Page C-2
The plates are dried and cured under controlled temperature
and humidity conditions producing no wastewater or panicu-
late emissions. Cured plates are sent to a three-process
operation that involves manual separation of the plates, stack-
ing them with non-conducting separators, and the welding on
of metallic lead battery leads (pronounced "leeds") and lead
terminals. The plates are then assembled into battery cases.
Paniculate emissions of battery paste result from the manual
separation, stacking, and handling of the battery plates. Lead
fumes are emitted from the burning process. Exhaust gases
from the three-process operation are treated by a fabric filter,
and the collected particulates are returned to the smelter for
recovery and reuse. The three-process operation produces
no lead-containing wastewater, since only non-contact cooling
water is used in the burning process. (Note: Even though lead
is contained in the cooling water used by the facility (in the form
of dissolved and suspended solids), you are not required to
report releases of lead discharged with the cooling water
because the lead is naturally occurring in the intake water and
not added during the battery production process.]
Sulfuric acid is added to the assembled batteries and the
plates are formed within the batteries by applying electric
voltage. The formation process oxidizes the lead oxide in the
positive plates to lead peroxide and reduces the lead oxide in
the negative plates to metallic lead. The charging process
produces an acid mist that contains small amounts of lead
paniculate, which is released without emission controls.
Acid used in the formation process is removed from the
batteries and reused. The batteries are washed, fresh acid is
added, and the batteries are tested, re-washed, and inspected
before being shipped to an on-site warehouse. The interme-
diate and final washes generate process wastewater, as do
the battery repair and housekeeping (floor washing) opera-
tions. This wastewater is pretreaied on-site and then piped to
the local publicly owned treatment works (POTW).
Determining Reporting Requirements Under
Section 313
To determine whetheryou are required to report under section
313, you must ascertain whetherthe total quantity of any listed
chemical or chemical compound manufactured, processed, or
used at your facility over the course of the calendar year
exceeds any applicable threshold. For the facility described
above, determination of reporting requirement would proceed
as follows. [Note: In determining eligibility, you will generate
information you need to complete several portions of the
form.]
Both lead (CAS number 7439-92-1) and lead compounds (a
chemical category) are listed substances subject to reporting
under section 313. You have decided that if any of the
applicable thresholds are exceeded, you will report releases of
both lead and lead compounds on the same reporting form
under the listed chemical category lead compounds.* "Lead
compounds" should be entered in Part III, Section 1.3, of the
form. The CAS number for lead should not be entered,
because that would imply that you are reporting only for lead. t
You should enter not applicable, NA, in the CAS number |
space.
According to the process description, the following activities
take place at your facility involving lead and lead compounds:
Q Your facility manufactures (produces) lead oxide (PbO)
for on-site use/processing, which occurs in the production
of lead oxide from metallic lead.
Q Your facility processes metallic lead (Pb) as a reactant
during lead oxide production.
Q Your facility also processes metallic lead as an article
component. This activity occurs at several points in the
process, including during the addition of lead to the
battery paste and the welding of metallic lead terminals
and leads in the three-process operation.
Q Your facility processes lead oxide as a reactant in the
formation process, where the lead oxide in the positive
battery plates is oxidized to lead peroxide.
Q Yourfacility manufactures fproduces) lead peroxide. This
activity also occurs in the formation process, where lead
oxide is oxidized to lead perc xide.
You must indicate all of the activities involving lead and lead
compounds on Part III, Section 3. of the reporting form. (The
attached completed form shows how information for this
facility has been entered.)
Determining Reporting Eligibility, The manufacturing thresh-
old quantity for the 1989 reporting year is 25,000 pounds; the
threshold for processing is also 25,000 pounds. Your facility
engages in both manufacturing and process activities in its
production of 1,500,000 batteries per year. Each battery con-
tains 25 pounds of lead, half of w hich is in the form of metallic
lead (anode) and half in the form of lead peroxide (cathode).
The total amount of lead compounds manufactured during the
reporting year is the 18,750,000 pounds of lead peroxide,
which exceeds the threshold for manufacturing. Similarly, the
amounts of lead processed as an article component (18,750,000
pounds) and of lead compounds processed (18,750,000 pounds)
each exceed the threshold for processing. [Note: These
amounts are not combined before being compared to the
processing threshold, because both lead and lead compounds
are separately listed chemicals.] For sequential processes,
use the amount of the final process material to determine
whether the threshold is exceeded.
-------
Page C-3
Since your facility employs more than 10 people and falls
within SIC codes 20-39, yourfacility must report under section
313. (Note: Once any of the applicable thresholds for lead
compounds are exceeded, you are required to identify all
manufacturing, processing, and use activities. You must
report all releases of all lead compounds present at your
facility, regardless of the activity from which they originate
unless there is a specifically exempted use, such as the use of
an article or use of intake water naturally containing lead.]
Calculating the Maximum Quantity of Lead and Lead
Compounds. To calculate the maximum amount of lead and
lead compounds present at yourfacility at any one time, you
must consider all types of metallic lead and M types of lead
compounds present at your facility, including stockpiled raw
materials, lead and lead oxide present in process equipment,
the metallic lead and lead peroxide contained in finished
batteries stored on-site, and stockpiled lead scrap. Since the
reporting form is being prepared for lead compounds, the
maximum amount reported is the total of the inventories of
these materials. The maximum amount of metallic lead
(2,305,000 pounds), lead oxide (205,000 pounds), and lead
peroxide (625,000 pounds) present at yourfacility is 3,135,000
pounds, which is between 1,000,000 and 9,999,999 pounds.
You would therefore report range 06 on Part III, Section 4, of
the reporting form.
Calculation of Releases of Lead
Releases to Air. In April 1989, you conducted stack tests to
determine air releases from the battery facility. The release
data provided baseline data for a proposed 1990 air emission
reduction program. The tests were performed using EPA
Reference Method 12, which determines exhaust concentra-
tions as total elemental lead, and EPA Reference Methods 1-
4, which determine total exhaust volumes. Releases from all
stacks and vents at the facility were measured, including those
from the following release points:
Q Grid casting furnace and casting machine;
Q Lead oxide mill fabric filter exhaust;
G Paste mixer wet scrubber exhaust;
Q Paste mixer fabric filter exhaust; and
Q Three process fabric filter exhaust.
Non-point (fugitive) air releases of lead, such as from the
battery formation, grid paste application, and fabric filter dust
handling areas were not measured as part of the stack testing
program but have been estimated by the facility's engineering
department to be less than 100 pounds per year. Measure-
ments of the inlet lead concentrations to the wet scrubber or
fabric filters were not performed. The process conditions
(e.g., temperature, exhaust rate) of the grid casting furnace
were changed significantly in June 1989 in response to the
stack test results. Current lead releases are estimated by the
engineering department to be 75 percent of those measured
during the stack test.
The total releases to air from the facility must be entered in
Part III, Section 5 of Form R in pounds per year. The stack test
results provide the concentration of metallic lead in each
exhaust stream in grains per cubic foot and the exhaust rate m
cubic feet per minute. Using the appropriate conversion
factors, knowing the scrubber efficiency (from the manufac-
turer's data), and assuming yourfacility operates 24 hours per
day, 300 days per year, you can calculate the total lead
releases from the stack test data. Because point (stack)
releases of lead are 2,400 pounds per year, which is greater
than the 999 pounds per year ranges in column A.1, you must
enter the actual calculated amount in column A.2 of Section
5.2.
Non-point (fugitive) air releases are 100 pounds per year
(which is less than 999 pounds per year), so you may either
enter the actual calculated amount in column A.2. or enter the
appropriate range (1-499 pounds per year) in column A. 1. The
basis for the estimate of fugitive emissions, entered in column
B of Section 5, is engineering calculations (code O). The basis
for the estimate of stack emissions, entered in column B of
Section 5, is monitoring data (code M). Although engineering
calculations were used to estimate releases from the grid
casting process, actual emissions test data were used to
calculate more than 50 percent of the total stack emissions, so
code M is appropriate.
Releases to Water. The only release of lead to a receiving
stream or water body comes from stormwater. Lead ingots
shipped from the off-site smelter are stored on a concrete pad
in an open area at your facility. Lead dust is entrained in the
stormwater runoff from the ingot storage area. You have
monitoring data concerning the concentration of lead in storm-
water releases from the facility property. Therefore, using
precipitation volumes and run-off coefficients appropriate to
the site, you are able to estimate that the releases of 'eac
compounds to the nearby stream total 6.2 pounds per year
Since the total quantity of lead released is less than 999
pounds per year, you may enter the actual amount calculated
in column A.2 of Section 5.3.1 a, or mark the applicable range
(1-499 pounds per year) in column A.1, as is shown in the
sample. Your facility has no process discharges to surface
waters except stormwater. You must therefore report in Part
III, Section 5.3.1c, that 100 percent of the lead released from
your facility to surface water is from stormwater. The basis for
the estimate of stormwater emissions, entered in column B of
Section 5.3.1, is monitoring data (code M). The letter for the
receiving stream or water body you designated in Part I,
Section 3.10 must be entered to the box.
Wastewater from the grid paste application process is entirely
recycled within the process after treatment in a multi-stage
settler. Wastewater from the grid paste mixer wet scrubber is
-------
Page C-4
piped to an on-site surface impoundment and evaporated
after treatment by a single-stage separator (settling tank) and
pH adjustment for chemical precipitation. Wastewater from
other process areas is treated in the wastewater pretreatment
system and piped to the POTW. The following sections on
Releases to Land and Discharge to POTW illustrate report-
ing of these wastes.
Releases to Underground Injection. Your facility performs
no underground injection and therefore has no Underground
Injection Well Code identification number. Not applicable, NA,
should be entered in Part I, Section 3.11 and in column A.2of
Part III, Section 5.4.
Releases to Land. Wastewater from the grid paste mixing
scrubber is discharged to a surface impoundment and evapo-
rated. Although your facility historically has removed lead
sludge from the surface impoundment each year, this has not
been done for the past two years, as process changes have
caused the sludge to accumulate more slowly than in previous
years. Therefore, the impoundment must be considered an
on-site land disposal unit, and releases to the impoundment
must be reported in Part III, Section 5.5.1, of the form, and not
in Part III, Section 5.3.
The facility wastewater monitoring program does not deter-
mine the concentration of lead and lead compounds in the
scrubber discharge water, and releases to the surface im-
poundment (releases to land) must be calculated using mate-
rial balance information. These releases to land are deter-
mined from the amount of lead removed by the scrubber
(using the efficiency data provided by the scrubber manufac-
turer). The volume of the scrubber blowdown is found to be
1,500 pounds per year. Enter the estimate of the amount of
lead and lead compounds released to surface impoundments
m the space provided in Part III, Section 5.5.3 of the form.
Because releases of lead to the surface impoundment are
greater than 999 pounds per year, you must enter the actual
calculated amount in column A.2 of Section 5.5.1. The basis
for the estimate of releases to the surface impoundment,
entered in column B of Section 5, is mass balance calculations
(code C).
Calculation of Lead Transfers to Off-Site Locations
Discharge to POTW. Wastewater from battery wash and
battery repair operations at the plant is discharged to the local
POTW. The discharge monitoring data collected by the plant
provide the concentration of metallic lead in each wastewater
stream discharged to the POTW in milligrams/liter and the flow
rate in liters per minute. Your facility also monitors the inlet
concentration to the on-site wastewater treatment system to
determine the treatment system efficiency. You are required
to report releases or release ranges in pounds per year.
Assuming your facility operates 24 hours a day, 300 days a
year, using appropriate conversion factors and the monitoring
data (i.e., lead concentrations and wastewater volumes), the
release is calculated to be 11 pounds per year The total
releases to the POTW from the facility must be entered in Part
111, Section 6.1, of the form. Because the releases of lead are
less than 999 pounds per year, you may mark the appropriate
range in column A.1 or enter the actual calculated amount ;n
column A.2 of Section 6.1.1. You must report information
concerning the multi-stage settler, single-stage settler, and pH
adjustment (chemical precipitation) on Part III, Section 7. of
the form, as these systems constitute wastewater treatment
systems. You must also enter the name of the POTW m Part
II, Section 1.1.
Transfers to Other Off-Site Locations. Your facility returns
the lead particulate collected by the fabric tillers to the off-site
smelterfor recovery and reuse. You are not required to report
releases of listed substances to off-site recovery facilities,
therefore, no information concerning the off-site smelter should
be entered in Part III, Section 6 of Form R.
Your facility discharges used fabric filter bags contaminated
with lead particulate to a commercial RCRA landfill located in
Colorado. The RCRA I.D. number for the off-site facility is
COD554698764. The plant engineenng department esti-
mates that the annual shipment of fabric filter bags contain
less than 500 pounds of lead. You may, therefore, report the
release as a range in column A. 1 of Section 6.2.1. The basis
forthe estimate of solid waste emissions, entered in column B
of Section 6.2.1, is engineering calculations (code O), and the
location and RCRA I.D. number of the Commercial landfill s
entered in Part II, Section 2.1, of the reporting fcrr\
Estimation of Treatment System Efficiencies and
Influent Concentrations
Information on the types of treatment systems and their
treatment efficiencies is required to be entered in Part III,
Section 7, of the reporting form. For air emission treatment
systems, use code A; for wastewater treatment systems use,
code W; and for solid waste treatment systems, use code S in
column 1 of Section 7. Appendix 8 of the instructions for Form
R provides treatment codes to be entered in column B cf
Section 7.
Air Treatment Systems. Fabric filters and cyclone collectors
are considered to be mechanical separation systems; the
treatment code for these systems is A06. The treatment code
for wei scrubbers is A03. Information on each air treatment
system must be entered individually in Section 7. The cycle te
collector and fabric filter on the lead oxide mill exhaust are
sequential treatment systems, because they treat the same
wastestream in sequence. Therefore, sequential treatment
must be indicated for both systems in column D of Section 7
You are required to indicate the influent concentration ?n'y *n
-------
Page C-5
the first step of the sequential treatment system (the cyclone
collector) and must report the overall treatment efficiency of
the system on the line for the last treatment step (the fabnc
filter). Note that the wet scrubber and fabric filter on the grid
paste mixer exhaust are not sequential treatment steps,
because each treats a different wastestream generated at
different times during the same process.
In Section 7, columns C and E you must indicate the range of
influent concentration and treatment efficiency, respectively,
for each treatment system listed. The facility must estimate
the efficiency and influent concentration of each air emission
treatment system, as the stack test program did not determine
influent concentrations. The facility has manufacturers' data
on the efficiency of each treatment system and should use this
information along with effluent concentration data to estimate
the influent concentrations. The efficiency estimates for air
treatment systems are not based on operating data; this must
be indicated in column F of Section 7.
Wastewater Treatment Systems. The POTW discharge
monitoring system provides actual operating data concerning
the removal efficiencies and influent and effluent concentra-
tions of all wastewater treatment systems at your facility,
except the single-stage settler. The pH adjustment (chemical
precipitation) and filtration steps used in the wastewater pre-
treatment system are considered to be sequential treatment
steps, as are the single-stage settler, pH adjustment, and
evaporation (the surface impoundment) used to treat the grid
paste application discharge. The treatment code for chemical
precipitation (lime or sodium hydroxide) is C01, and the code
for filtration is P12.
The code for treatment of grid paste application washwater in
the multi-stage settler is P11 (settling/clarification), and the
code for process reuse of the wastewater is R99 (other
recovery/reuse). The code for evaporation of wastewater in
the surface impoundment is P99 (other physical treatment).
The overall treatment efficiencies for the grid paste application
discharge and scrubber discharge are both 100 percent,
because the wastewater streams are completely eliminated
through evaporation and reuse respectively. Note that you do
not report the precipitation of lead in the surface impoundment
as "metals recovery,* because you no longer remove the lead
sludge from the impoundment for reuse. This will be consid-
ered disposal to land for the 1,500 pounds of lead that were
sent to the surface impoundment.
Information on Waste Minimization. The facility formerly
shipped the lead-containing sludge from the multi-stage set-
tler used to treat the grid paste application wastewater to an
off-site disposal facility. In 1989, however, process modifica-
tions allowed the sludge to be returned to the off-site smelter
operated by the company for recovery and reuse, resulting in
significant cost-savings. The most significant saving is in the
cost of treating the sludge; the value of the recovered lead
represents a less significant saving. The amount of lead
formerly disposed of at the off-site facility is approximately 100
pounds per year; the same amount is now recovered by the
smelter. The code forthe type of modification is M2 (recovery
off-site) and that for the reason for action is R2 (reduction in
treatment/disposal cost). The index value of 1.0 is based on
the fact that production of batteries was approximately the
same in both years.
Completion of the Section 313 Reporting Form
As shown in the sample form that follows, the facility informa-
tion is entered in Part I of the reporting form. The reporting
year, Dun and Bradstreet Number, EPA Identification Number
and other required information have been entered. The
sample report contains no trade secret information and has
been completed for an entire covered facility, as previously
described. All non-applicable information on the form has
been marked NA. The vice president of the facility has been
briefed on the information contained in the report and has
signed the certification (Part I, Section 2). If separate reports
were being prepared for lead and lead compounds, the vice
president would have signed each reporting form. The com-
pleted form is now ready to be submitted to EPA and the
appropriate State agency. Copies are made for retention in
the facility's files along with all information concerning the
information sources and calculations used.

APPENDIX D
MOST COMMON ERRORS FOUND ON FORM R REPORTS FROM 1988
1. Invalid chemical identification on page three. The
CAS number and the chemical name reported on page
three must exactly match the listed section 313 CAS
number and chemical name. Chemical categories should
not be reported with a CAS number. A generic chemical
name should only be provided if you are claiming the
section 313 chemical identity as trade secret. Chemical
names should be taken directly from the list in this
document (see pages 40-48). Mixture names are to be
entered in Part III, Section 1.4 if that is the sole identifica-
tion. Mixture names that include the name (or CAS
number) of one or more section 313 chemical(s) are not
valid.
2. Failure to consider listed chemical qualifier. Alumi-
num, vanadium and zinc are qualified as "fume or dust."
Isopropyl alcohol and saccharin have manufacturing
qualifiers. Ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulfate are
qualified as solutions. Phosphorus is qualified as yellow
or white. Asbestos is qualified as friable. Only chemicals
meeting the qualifiers require reporting under section 313
and should be reported on Form R with the appropriate
qualifier in parenthesis.
3. Missing certification signature. An original certification
signature must appear on page one of every Form R
submitted to EPA.
4. Incomplete forms. A complete Form R report for any
toxic chemical or chemical category consists of at least
five pages stapled together. Page one and two may be
photocopied to complete each report only if all the infor-
mation on pages one and two is the same, and an original
certification signature is provided on each page one.
Sending in a package which contains only one page one,
one page two, but several page three's, four's and five's
will result in a Notice of Noncompliance.
5. Maximum amount on-site left blank. In a surprising
number of Forms, Part III, Section 4 on page three of
Form R is left blank. Leaving this section blank will result
in a Notice of Technical Error.
6. Missing or incorrect reporting year. The reporting year
is the calendar year during which the reported data were
collected; it is not the year in which the Form R is sent to
EPA. Form Rs are due to EPA on July 1, 1990 for
chemicals manufactured, processed or otherwise used
during reporting year 1989. A Form R cannot contain d
for more than one year. "1988/89" is not correct. Pa:
Section 1.3 must not be left blank; this error will resui
a Notice of Noncompliance.
7. "Questionable" entries, such as:
-- Missing or incorrect zip codes;
-- Missing county names;
-- Non-numeric SIC codes;
-- Non-numeric or invalid Dun and Bradstreet numoe
-- Incomplete off-site and POTW information (missm
zip code, etc.);
-- Amounts reported in units other than pounds (e.g.
metric) or use of exponential numbers.
8. Incorrect completion of trade secret information. T
responses to trade secret questions on Part I and Part
of a Form R must be consistent. If trade secrecy
indicated, a sanitized Form R and two trade secret si
stantiations must be submitted in the same package
the trade secret Form R. Failure to provide comple
trade secret submissions will result in a Notice of Nc
compliance.
9. Revisions not identified. Revisions to previously su
mitteddata may be provided to EPA by making correctio
in red ink on a copy of the Form R originally submitte
marking the copy with the words "VOLUNTARY RE\
SION" marked "THIS SPACE FOR YOUR OPTION/
USE" on page one; and sending it to the Title III Reportir
Center. You must also send a copy of the revision to tf
State organization. Failure to clearly identify a revisic
may result in EPA entering it into the database as a ne
submission resulting in the appearance of increase
emissions from the facility.
10. Duplicate submissions not identified. Facilities som>
times send multiple copies of the same Form R report
insure that EPA received a copy. Duplicate submissior
must be identified by printing the word "DUPLICATE"
red Ink on page one in the box marked "THIS SPAC
FOR YOUR OPTIONAL USE". Failure to clearly identi
a duplicate report may result in the duplicate appearanc
of the data in the database and the appearance
increased emissions from the facility.

APPENDIX E
SUPPLIER NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
Because manufacturers reporting under section 313 must
know the toxic chemical composition of the products they use
to be able to accurately calculate releases, EPA requires some
suppliers of mixtures ortrade name products containing one or
more of the listed section 313 chemicals to notify their custom-
ers. This requirement has been in effect since January 1,
1989.
This appendix explains which suppliers must notify their cus-
tomers, who must be notified, what form the notice must take,
and when it must be sent.
WHO MUST SUPPLY NOTIFICATION
You are covered by the section 313 supplier notification
requirements if you own or operate a facility which meets all
of the following criteria:
(1) Your facility is in Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)
codes 20-391;
(2) You manufacture, import, or process a listed chemical;
and
(3) You sell or otherwise distribute a mixture or trade name
product containing the toxic chemical to either
Q A facility that must report under section 313; or
Q A firm that then sells the same mixture or trade name
product to a firm in SIC codes 20-39.
Note that you may be covered by the supplier notification
rules even If you are not covered by the section 313
release reporting requirements. For example, even if you
have less than 10 full-time employees or do not manufacture
or process any of the chemicals in sufficient quantities to
trigger the release reporting requirements, you may still be
required to notify certain customers.
WHO MUST BE NOTIFIED
An example would be if you sold a lacquer containing toluene
to distributors who then sell the product to other manufactur-
ers. The distributors are not in SIC codes 20-39, but because
they sell the product to companies in SIC codes 20-39, they
must be notified so that they may pass the notice along to their
customers, as required.
The language of the supplier notification requirements covers
mixtures or trade name products that are sold or otherwise
distributed. The "otherwise distributes" language applies to
intra-company transfers. However, if the company has devel-
oped an internal communications procedure that alerts their
other facilities to the presence and content of covered toxic
chemicals in their products, then EPA would accept this.
Supplier notification is also required if a waste mixture contain-
ing a toxic chemical is sold to a recycling or recovery facility.
However, if the material is sent off-site as a waste for treat-
ment or disposal, then no supplier notification is required.
SUPPLIER NOTIFICATION MUST INCLUDE THE
FOLLOWING INFORMATION:
(1) A statement that the mixture or trade name product con-
tains a toxic chemical or chemicals subject to the reporting
requirements of section 313 of EPCRA (40 CFR 372);
(2) The name of each toxic chemical and the associated
Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry number of
each chemical if applicable. (CAS numbers are not used
for chemical categories, since they can represent several
individual chemicals.)
(3) The percentage, by weight, of each toxic chemical (or all
toxic chemicals within a listed category) contained in the
mixture or trade name product.
For example, if a mixture contains a chemical (i.e., 12 percent
zinc oxide) that is a member of a reportable chemical category
(i.e., zinc compounds), the notification must include that the
mixture contains a zinc compound at 12 percent by weight.
Supplying only the weight percent of the parent metal (zinc)
does not fulfill the requirement. The customer must be told the
weight percent of the entire compound within a listed chemical
category present in the mixture.
For each mixture ortrade name product that contains a listed
toxic chemical, you will have to notify all customers in SIC
codes 20-39 or distributors who in turn sell that product to firms
in SIC codes 20-39. Unless you know otherwise, you should
assume that the chain of distribution includes facilities in SIC
codes 20-39. (The notification is limited to SIC 20-39 facilities
and their suppliers because only facilities in those SIC codes
are required to report releases under section 313.)
1 If your company or facility distributes chemical products but does not fall into the covered SIC codes, .you should be alert to the supplier notification
that may accompany MSOSs of the products you distribute. You should pass on such notices to your industrial customers unchanged.
-------
Page E-2
HOW THE NOTIFICATION MUST BE MADE
The required notification must be provided at least annually in
writing. Acceptable forms of notice are, for example, a letter,
product labeling, and product literature distributed to custom-
ers. If you are required to prepare and distribute a Material
Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) forthe mixture under the Occupa-
tional Safety and Health Act (OSHA) Hazard Communication
Standard, your section 313 notification may be attached to the
MSDS or the MSDS may be modified to include the required
information. (A sample letter and recommended text for
inclusion in an MSDS appear on pages E-4 and E-5 of this
appendix.)
You must make it clear to your customers that any copies or
redistribution of the MSDS or other form of notification must
include the section 313 notice. Inotherwords.yourcustomers
should understand their requirement to include the section
313 notification if they give your MSDS to their customers.
WHEN NOTIFICATION MUST BE PROVIDED
in general, you must notify each customer receiving a mixture
3r trade name product containing a listed toxic chemical with
he first shipment of each calendar year. You may send the
notice with subsequent shipments as well, but it is required
hat you send it with the first shipment each year. Once
:ustomers have been provided with an MSDS containing the
section 313 information, you may refer to the MSDS by a
vritten letter in subsequent years (as long as the MSDS is
:urrerit).
f EPA adds chemicals to the section 313 list, and your
iroducts contain the newly listed toxic chemicals, notify your
:ustomers with the first shipment of the year following EPA's
inal decision to add the chemical to the list. For example, if
EPA adds chemical ABC to the list in September 1990,
upplier notification for chemical ABC would begin with the first
hipment in 1991.
'ou must send a new or revised notice to your customers if
ou:
1) Change a mixture or trade name product by adding, re-
moving, or changing the percentage by weight of a listed
toxic chemical.
2) Discover that your previous notification did not properly
identify the toxic chemicals in the mixture or correctly
indicate the percentage by weight.
i these cases, you must:
Q Supply a new or revised notification within 30 days of a
change in the product or the discovery of misidentified
toxic chemical(s) in the mixture or incorrect percentages
by weight;
Identify in the notification the prior shipments of the
mixture or product to which the new notification applies.
and
Indicate how many shipments were affected during the
calendar year (e.g., if the revised notification is made in
August, indicate how many shipments were aflected
during the period January 1 - August).
WHEN NOTIFICATIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED
Supplier notification is not required for a pure toxic chemical
unless atrade name is used. The identity of the toxic chemical
will be known based on label information.
You are not requiredto make a "negative declaration." That is,
you are not required to indicate that a product contains no
section 313 chemicals.
If your mixture ortrade name product contains one of the listed
toxic chemicals, you are not required to notify your customers
if:
(1) Your mixture or trade name product contains the toxic
chemical in percentages by weight of less than the
following levels (These are known as de mimmis levels):
Q 0.1 percent of the toxic chemical present in the mix-
ture, if the toxic chemical is defined as an "OSHA car-
cinogen';
Q 1 percent for other toxic chemicals.
De minimis levels for each toxic chemical and chemical
category are listed on pages 40-48.
(2) Your mixture or trade name product is one of the
following:
r 3 An article that does not release a covered toxic chemi-
cal under normal conditions of processing or use.
Q Foods, drugs, cosmetics, pesticides, alcoholic bever-
ages, tobacco, or tobacco products packaged for
distribution to the general public.
Q Any consumer product, as the term is defined in the
Consumer Product Safety Act, packaged for distribu-
tion to the general public. For example, if you mix or
package one-gallon cans of paint designed for use by
the general public, notification is not required.
(3) Your mixture or trade name product is contained in a
waste being sent off-site for treatment or disposal.

TRADE SECRETS
RECORDKEEPING REQUIREMENTS
Chemical suppliers may consider the chemical name or the
specific concentration of a section 313 toxic chemical in a
mixture or trade name product to be a trade secret. If you
consider the:
(1) Specific identity of a toxic chemical to be a trade secret,
the notice to your customer(s) must contain a generic
chemical name that is descriptive of the structure of that
toxic chemical. For example, decabromodiphenyl oxide
could be described as a halogenated aromatic.
(2) Specific percentage by weight of a toxic chemical in the
mixture or trade name product to be a trade secret, your
notice to customers must contain a statement that the
chemical is present at a concentration that does not
exceed a specified upper bound. For example, if a
mixture contains 12 percent toluene and you consider the
percentage a trade secret, the notification may state that
the mixture contains toluene at no more than 15 percent
by weight. The upper bound value chosen must be no
larger than necessary to adequately protect the trade
secret.
You are required to keep records for three years of the
following:
(1) Notifications sent to customers;
(2) Explanations of why a notification was considered neces-
sary and all supporting materials used to develop the
notice;
(3) Explanations of why a specific chemical identity is consid-
ered a trade secret and the appropriateness of the ge-
neric chemical name provided in the notification; and
(4) Explanations of why a specific concentration is consid-
ered a trade secret and the basis forthe upper bound con-
centration limit.
This information must be readily available for inspection by
EPA.
If you claim this information to be trade secret, you must have
documentation in your files that provides the basis for your
claim.

SAMPLE NOTIFICATION LETTER
Mr. Edward Burke
Furniture Company of Ruritania
1000 Main Street
Sellers, Ruritania
Dear Mr. Burke:
The purpose of this letter is to inform you that a product that we sell to you, Furniture Lacquer KXZ-
1390, contains 20 percent toluene (Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) number 108-88-3). We are
required to notify you of the presence of toluene in the product under section 313 of the Emergency
Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986. This law requires certain manufacturers to report
on annual emissions of specified toxic chemicals and chemical categories.
If you are unsure if you are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 313, or need more
information, call the EPA Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Information Hotline:
(800) 535-0202 or (202) 479-2449 (in Washington O.C. or Alaska). Your other suppliers should also
be notifying you if section 313 chemicals are in the mixtures and trade name products they sell to you.
Please also note that if you repackage or otherwise redistribute this product to industrial customers,
a notice similar to this one should be sent to those customers.
Sincerely,
Axel Leaf

HOW TO DETERMINE LATITUDE AND LONGITUDE FROM
TOPOGRAPHIC MAPS
Latitude is the distance north or south of the equator. Longi-
tude is the distance east or west of the prime meridian
(Greenwich, England). Latitude and longitude are measured
in seconds, minutes, and degrees.
60" (seconds)
60' (minutes) =
r (minute)
1" (degree)
To determine the latitude and longitude of your facility you will
need a topographic map from United States Geological Sur-
vey (USGS).
How to Obtain USGS Map«
USGS maps used for determining latitude and longitude may
be obtained from the USGS distribution center. These maps
are available in both the 7.5 minute and 15 minute series. For
maps of the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii, American
Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, con-
tact:
Branch of Distribution
U.S. Geological Survey
Box 25286 Federal Center
Denver, CO 80225
If you are not sure on which map your site is located, consult
the index of topographic maps for your state, which USGS will
provide free of charge. USGS maps cost about $3.00 and are
often available in local libraries and at commercial dealers
such as surveyors or outdoor recreation equipment dealers.
The index for your state lists these alternative sources for
obtaining maps. If you need help in determining your facility's
latitude and longitude, the National Cartographic Information
Center located in Denver (303) 236-5829 can provide assis-
tance.
Datermlnjng Your Facility's Latitude and Longitude
(See diagram next page.)
Once you have obtained the correct map for your facility:
1. Mark the location of your facility on the map with a poit
If your facility is large, choose a point central to the pr
duction activities of the facility. If certain structures in yo
facility are represented on the map, mark one of t!
structures with a point.
2. Construct a «mafl rectangle around the point with fir
pencil lines connecting the nearest 2 1 /2' or 5* graticule
Graticules are intersections of latitude and longitude !in<
that are marked on the map-edge, and appear as bla
crosses at four points in the interior of the map.
3. Read and record the latitude and longitude for the sout
east corner of the small quadrangle drawn in step tw
The latitude and longitude are printed at the edges of tl
map.
4. To determine the increment of latitude above the latituc
line recorded in step 3,
- position the map so that you face its west edge:
- place the ruler In approximately a north-south align
merit, with the "0" on the latitude line recorded in sti
3 and the edge intersecting the point.
Without moving the ruler, read and record:
- the measurement from the latitude line to the desin
point (the point distance);
- the measurementfromthe latitude line to the north in
of the small quadrangle (the total distance).
Determine the number of seconds to be added to tl
latitude recorded in step 3 by using the ratio:
Point distance
Total distance
between lines
x 150" » increment of latitude
[Note: 150* is the number of seconds of arc for the side
the small quadrangle on a 7.5' map. If you are using a
map, the multiplication factor is 300* instead of 150" sin
each graticule is 5' of latitude or longitude.]
-------

For example:
Point distance = 99.5
Total distance = 192.0
99.5 x 150' = 77.7"
192.0

5. To determine the increment of longitude west of the lon-
gitude line recorded in step 3,
- position the map so that you face its south edge;
- place the ruler in approximately an east-west align-
ment with the "0" on the longitude line recorded in step
3 and the edge intersecting the point.
Without moving the ruler, read and record:
- the measurement from the longitude line to the de-
sired point (the point distance);
the measurement from the longitude line to the west
line of the small quadrangle (the total distance).
Determine the number of seconds to be added to the
longitude recorded in step 3 by using the ratio:
Point distance
Total distance
between lines
x 150" = increment of longitude
For example:
Point distance
Total distance
65.0
