Important Changes in the Section 313 Requirements for
Reporting Year 1988
Reporting requirements for calendar year 1988 reports (due July 1,1989), differ from 1987 requirements
in three respects:
(1) The 1988 threshold for manufacturing or processing a covered toxic chemical is
50,000 pounds (the threshold was 75,000 pounds for reporting year 1987). You
must use this threshold in determining whether you are subject to the reporting
requirements. (See "Threshold Determinations," p.7, for more information.)
(2) Latitude and logitude information must be included in the report. (See Part I,
Section 3.6, p. 13 and Appendix B for more information).
(3) The following chemicals that were covered for the 1987 year are not covered for
the 1988 reporting year:
CAS Number
C.I. Acid Blue 9 disodium salt 2650-18-2
C.I. Acid Blue 9 diammonium salt 3844-45-9
Reporting is not required for these chemicals (see the Final Rule October 7,1988
(53 FR 23108) for more information).
Supplier Notification Begins in 1989
With the first shipment of product in calendar year 1989, suppliers must
provide notice to their customers regarding all mixtures or trade name
products that contain listed toxic chemicals. The notice must be attached
to the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs). 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. The notification may
be used for threshold and release calculations for calendar year 1988, if the
notification information is the best available information at the facility.
(See "Mixture and Trade Name Products, Supplier Notification," p. 8 for
more information.)

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 release
of listed toxic chemicals from your facility to the environment
during the past 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 ever on-
site during the calendar year and the amount contained 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. (See Appendix G f or a copy
of the regulations). Together with the reporting rule, they
constitute the reporting requirements. All references in these
instructions are to sections in the reporting rule unless other-
wise indicated.
HOW TO ASSEMBLE A COMPLETE REPORT
The Toxic Chemical Release Reporting Form, EPA Form R,
consists of four parts:
Q Part I, Facility Identification Information (page 1);
Q 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).
Form R is designed so that most of the information required in
Part I and all of the information required in Part II can be filled
out and then photocopied and attached to each chemical-
specific report. Part I may be a photostatic copy as long as it
has an original signature on the certification statement and the
trade secret designation is 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 fii 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 required by the preceding sections of
the form. Include Part IV in your report, even if it 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 the pages of each report together. Do not submit
supporting documentation or other materials; such data will
not be processed with your Form R submission.
TRADE SECRET CLAIMS
For any chemical whose identity is claimed as a trade secret
you must submit to EPAtwo versions of theform 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 ge-
neric 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, Sections 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 four reports together.
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.
-------
General
Page 2
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 1988, January-December, must be submitted on or
before July 1, 1989).
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 apve pages of the form.
If you have obtained the Document Control Number (DCN) of
the original submission from EPA, enter that number also in
this space. You must include the facility and chemical names
on the form exactly as they were reported previously to enable
tracking of the original data. If your facility's name has
changed since the original submission, you must enter the
facility name which appeared in the original submission; also
indicate the new facility name in the optional use space on
page 1 ofFormRonly. You must complete the entire form for
a voluntary revision and send a copy of the revision to the
state. Submissions for the next calendar year are not consid-
ered revisions of a previous year's data.
WHERE TO SEND THE REPORT
Form R submissions must be sent to both EPA and the State.
Send EPA reports by mail to:
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
P.O. Box 70266
Washington, D.C. 20024-0266
Attn: Toxic Chemical Release Inventory
Hand-delivered submissions only should be addressed to:
EPA Title III Reporting Center
470 L'Enfant Plaza East
Suite 7103, SW
Washington, DC 20024
Attn: Toxic Chemical Release Inventory
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). Referto Appendix E (page 62)
for the appropriate State address for your facility. If your
facility is located on Indian land, send a copy to the Chief
Executive Officer of the applicable Indian tribe, unless the tribe
has entered into a cooperative agreement with the State. In
this case, Form R submissions should be sent to the entity
designated in the cooperative agreement to receive the forms.
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. For additional information, refer to the discussion of
trade-secret/confidentiality claims in the instructions for com-
pleting Part III, Section 1 of Form R.

WHO MUST SUBMIT THIS FORM
Section 313 of Title III requires that reports be filed by owners
and operators of facilities that meet all three of the following
criteria:
Q The facility has 10 or more full-time employees;
Q The facility is included in Standard Industrial Classification
(SIC) Codes 20 through 39; and
Q The facility manufactured (defined to include imported),
processed, or otherwise used in the course of a calendar
year any listed chemical in quantities greater than the
established threshold.
-------
Page3
General
HOW TO DETERMINE IF YOUR FACILITY MUST SUBMIT EPA FORM R
(See Figure 1 for more information.)
DOES YOUR FACILITY HAVE TEN OR MORE
FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES?
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 yourfacility, add upthe hours
worked by all employees during the calendar year, including
contract employees and sales and support staff working at the
facility. 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 employee threshold.
IS YOUR FACILITY'S SIC CODE IN THE 20-39
RANGE?
Table I on page 30 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 yourfacility, contact yourtrade 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 number for the
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
location, 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.
Multi-establishment Facilities
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, the facility meets the SIC code crite-
rion.
a If any one establishment with a primary SIC code between
20 and 39 produces or ships products whose value
exceeds the value of products produced or shipped by
any other establishment within the facility, the facility also
meets the SIC code criterion.
In calculating the value of production attributable to a particu-
lar establishment, the facility may adjust the value of produc-
tion from that establishment by subtracting out the value of
products which that establishment obtains from other estab-
lishments within the same facility and incorporates into its final
production. This procedure eliminatesthe 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 ore production and subtract it from
the value of the output from the smelter operation, which
would yield the value of production for the latter establish-
ment.
G A food processing establishment in a facility processes
crops grown at the facility in a separate establishment.
The facility could calculate the value of the products of
each establishment by determining the total value of
production from each establishment. Alternatively, the
facility could determine the value of the crops grown at the
agricultural establishment. Then, to calculate the contri-
bution 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
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 and
other required information is reported for the whole facility.
Auxiliary Facilities
An auxiliary facility is one that directly supports another
establishment's activities (e.g., research and development
laboratories, warehouses, storage facilities, and waste-treat-
ment 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 20-39 facility. Auxiliary facilities that are
in SIC codes 20-39 are required to report if they meet the
employee criterion and chemical thresholds for manufacture,
process, or use. Auxiliary establishments that are part of a
multi-establishment facility must be factored into threshold de-
terminations for the facility as a whole.
Facility-Related Exemptions
Listed toxic chemicals that are manufactured, processed, or
otherwise used in laboratories at a covered facility under the
supervision of a technically qualified individual do not have to
be factored into the threshold or release calculations. How-
ever, pilot plant scale or specialty chemical production do not
qualify for this laboratory exemption.
You are not required to report if you merely own real estate on
which a facility covered by this rule is located; that is, you have
no other business interest in the operation of that facility (e.g.,
your company owns an industrial park). The operator of that
facility, however, is subject to reporting requirements.
DOES YOUR FACILITY "MANUFACTURE,
PROCESS, OR USE" ONE OR MORE OF THE
CHEMICALS COVERED BY THE REPORTING
RULE?
Table II (page 36 of these instructions) 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 or anhydrous forms of these metals. As explained on
page 6 of these instructions, the term manufacture includes
the generation of a chemical as a byproduct or impurity. In
such cases, a facility should determine if, for example, it
generated more than 50,000 pounds of aluminum fume or
dust in 1988 as a result of its activities. If so, the facility must
report that it manufactures "aluminum (fume or dust)." Simi-
larly, 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 list entries contain a
qualifier relating to manufacture. For isopropyl alcohol, the
qualifier reads "manufacturing-strong acid process." For sac-
charin, the qualifier simply reads "manufacturing." In the case
of isopropyl alcohol, the qualifier means that only facilities that
manufacture isopropyl alcohol by the strong acid process are
required to report. In the case of saccharin, only manufac-
turers of the chemical are subject to the reporting require-
ments. 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.
Solutions. Four substances on the list, ammonium nitrate,
ammonium sulfate, sodium hydroxide, and sodium sulfate,
are qualified by the term "solution," which refers to the
physical state of these chemicals. Only facilities that manufac-
ture, process, or otherwise use these chemicals in the form of
a solution are required to report. Supplier notification applies
only if the chemical is distributed as a solution. (See page 7 for
information on calculating threshold and release determina-
tions for solutions.)
Phosphorus (vellow or white^. The listing for phosphorus is
qualified by the term "yellow or white." This refers to a
chemical state of phosphorus meaning that only manufac-
turing, processing, or use of phosphorus in the yellow or white
states triggers reporting. Conversely, manufac*'jring, proc-
essing, 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 a physical characteristic of asbes-
tos. The term "friable" means crumbled, pulverized, or
reducible to a powder with hand pressure. Again, only
manufacturing, processing, or use of asbestos in the friable
form triggers reporting. Similarly, supplier notification applies
only to distribution of friable asbestos.

Page 6
Definitions of "Manufacture," "Process," and
"Otherwise Use"
Manufacture: The term "manufacture" means to produce,
prepare, compound or import a listed toxic chemical. 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 yourf acility. 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 impu-
rity) as a result of the manufacture, processing, use, or
disposal of other chemical substances. In the case of coinci-
dental production of an impurity (i.e., a chemical that remains
in the product that is distributed in commerce), the de minimis
limitation, discussed on page 8, 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 manufac-
tured as a result of wastewater treatment or other treatment
processes. For example, neutralization of acid wastewater
can result in the coincidental manufacture of sodium sulfate
(solution).
EXAMPLE
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.,
50,000 pounds for 1988), releases of ammonium nitrate
solution from the facility must be reported. If more than 10,000
pounds of ammonia is added to the wastewater treatment
system, then releases of ammonia must also be reported.
Process: The term "process" means the preparation of a
listed toxic chemical, after its manufacture, for distribution in
commerce. 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 component in a mixture or other trade name product
(see page 8) that is a listed toxic chemical.
EXAMPLE
The examples below illustrate the categorization of some
typical process and manufacture activities.
Q Your company receives toluene, a listed toxic chemical,
from another facility, reacts the toluene with air to form
benzoic 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 uses
(not processes) the cadmium catalyst (see the definition
of "otherwise used" below). Yourcompanv manufactures
benzoic acid and terephthalic acid. Benzoic acid, how-
ever, is not a listed chemical and thus does not trigger
reporting requirements.
Q 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-lb bags.
Your company processes the nickel compound.
Q Your company receives a prepared mixture of resin and
chopped fiber to be used in the injection molding of plastic
products. The resin contains a listed chemical that
becomes incorporated into the plastic. Your facility proc-
esses 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
used by a facility is not intentionally incorporated into a product
distributed in commerce.
EXAMPLE
When your facility cleans equipment with toluene, you are
using toluene. However, if your facility incorporates toluene
into a mixture for distribution in commerce, your facility is
processing that chemical. 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 uses toluene.
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).

General
Article Exemptions. You do not have to factor into threshold
or release determinations quantities of a listed toxic chemical
contained in an article if 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 during manufacture,
that has end-use functions dependent in whole or in part upon
its shape or design during end-use, and that does not release
a toxic chemical under normal conditions of the processing or
use of that item at the facility.
The release criteria in the article definition is not absolute.
Reporting of releases under section 313 may be rounded to
the nearest pound. Releases of less than 0.5 pounds per year
do not negate the article status of an item that meets the first
two criteria in the article definition. If when processing or using
an item the estimate of total annual releases of a toxic
chemical is less than 0.5 pounds, then the facility may round
this estimate to zero. Thus, the article status of the item would
be retained because, in effect, the releases are calculated to
be zero. Low level releases of a toxic chemical from an item
due to normal or natural degradation, corrosion, etc., does not
negate the article status.
The article exemption applies to the normal processing or use
of an article. It does not apply to the manufacture of an article.
Toxic chemicals contained in articles manufactured at a facility
must be factored into threshold and release determinations.
The following examples apply the article exemption:
Q Lead that is incorporated into a lead acid battery is
processed in orderto manufacture the battery, andthere-
fore must be counted toward threshold and release deter-
minations. However, the use of the lead acid battery
elsewhere in the facility does not have to be counted.
Disposal of the battery after its use does not constitute a
"release"; thus, the battery remains an article.
G Metal rods that are extruded into wire are not articles
because their form changes during processing. How-
ever, wire that is twisted or bent is an article as long as it
remains identiliably wire.
Q 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 remain intact.
Q When the processing or use of an item generates fumes,
dust, filings, and 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. However, if all wastes generated are recycled,
whether on- or off-site, the exemption is applicable.
Toxic chemicals formed into pellets are not articles be-
cause the pellet form is simply a convenient form for
further processing of the material. Plastic pellets in-
tended for extrusion are not articles. The same is true for
metal ingots.
A closed item containing toxic chemicals (e.g., a trans-
former contain ing PCBs)thatdoes not release the chemi-
cals during normal use is considered an article if the
facility uses the item as intended and the toxic chemicals
are not released. If the facility services the transformer by
replacing the toxic chemicals, the chemicals must be
counted in threshold and release calculations.
DURING A CALENDAR YEAR, DOES YOUR
FACILITY MANUFACTURE, PROCESS, OR USE A
LISTED CHEMICAL IN QUANTITIES GREATER
THAN THE THRESHOLD ESTABLISHED FOR
THAT YEAR?
Section 313 sets certain reporting threshold quantities, which
vary depending upon the yearfor which the report is submitted
and whether the chemical is manufactured, processed, or
otherwise used. You must submit a report if the quantity of a
listed chemical that is manufactured or processed over the
course of the year at your facility exceeds the following
threshold:
Q For calendar year 1987, 75,000 pounds;
Q For calendar year 1988, 50,000 pounds;
Q 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 10,000 pounds
during the course of a calendar year.
How to Determine if Thresholds Are Exceeded
To determine whether your facility has exceeded a threshold,
compare quantities of listed chemicals that you manufacture,
process, or use to the separate respective thresholds forthose
activities. A worksheet for threshold determinations is in-
cluded in Appendix C (page 54). 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 determination. For example, if
in 1988 you processed 20,000 pounds of a chemical and you
used 6,000 pounds of that same chemical, yourfacility has not
met or exceeded any applicable threshold and thus is not
required to report for that chemical.
-------
General
Page 8
You must submit a report if you exceed any threshold for any
listed chemical or chemical category. For example, if your
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 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, which may not
equal the amount brought on-site. Thus, stockpiles of listed
chemicals intended for a process that is not operated during a
calendar year do not count toward threshold determinations.
Threshold determinations of listed toxic chemicals that are
recycled or reused at the facility are based only on the amount
of the chemical that is added to such recycle/reuse activity
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 at some
point of the year. The facility has therefore "used" only 2,000
pounds of the covered chemical and is not required to report
(unless there are other "uses" of ammonia which, when taken
together, exceed the reporting threshold). If, however, the
whole refrigeration unit had to be recharged with 15,000
pounds of ammonia during the year, the facility would have
exceeded the use threshold.
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 joint report instead of two (e.g., one report for
lead compounds, including lead) because the release informa-
tion 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 considered 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.
Mixtures and Trade Name Products
De Minimis Limitation. Toxic chemicals in mixtures and in
tradename products must be factored into threshold and
release determinations. However, a listed chemical does not
have to be considered if it is present in a mixture at a
concentration below a specified tie minimis level. In general,
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. EPA in-
cluded this 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 tradename product
beyond that available in the product's MSDS. The de minimis
levels are consistent with OSHA requirements for develop-
ment of the MSDS.
Forthreshold determinations, the de minimis limitation applies
to:
Q A listed toxic chemical in a mixture or tradename product
received by the facility.
Q A listed toxic chemical manufactured during a process
where the chemical remains in a mixture or product
distributed by the facility.
The de minimis does not apply to:
Q A chemical in a wastestream resulting from processes in
which that chemical is produced, whether as a product,
byproduct, or impurity. A threshold determination must
be made on the annual quantity of the chemical present
in the wastestream, 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.
Q Chemicals in ores, wastes, etc., that undergo intentional
beneficiation for purposes of production of that chemical.
For example, a company recovers silver by processing
waste material containing silver at less than 1% total
weight of the material. Although silver is received at less
than the de minimis concentration, the de minimis would
not apply because the process concentrates and pro-
duces silver as an end product.
In general, when the de minimis applies to threshold determi-
nations and the percent 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 facility-
wide basis, but not be required to calculate releases from a
particular process because that process involves only mix-
tures containing the chemical below the de minimis level.
-------
Page 9
General
Application of the de minimis limitation to process streams
must also be reviewed. Mixtures containing listed toxic
chemicals can be added to a process or generated within a
process. In both cases (assuming thresholds are exceeded)
a facility is required to consider and report releases from the
process up to the point at which the concentration of the
chemical falls below the de minimis level. For example, a 10%
solution of a listed chemical is mixed into atormulated cleaning
solution, resulting in a final concentration of less than 1 %.
Releases such as air emissions from the mix vessel are
counted, but releases from the finished formulation are not
counted.
Supplier Notification. In 1989, suppliers of facilities in SIC
codes 20-39 will be 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 and are distributed to other companies in SIC codes
20-39 or to companies that sell the product to facilities in SIC
codes 20-39. If a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) is not
required forthe mixture ortrade name product, the notification
must be written. Otherwise, the notice must be incorporated
into or attached to the MSDS for that product. The supplier
notification requirement begins 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
of a listed chemical or if it is discovered that a previous notice
did not properly identify the chemicals or the percentage by
weight.
Note to Suppliers: An item is still considered an article if you
can determine that the total releases of any toxic chemical that
are likely to occur from the processing or use of that article by
your largest volume customer for the product will not equal or
exceed 0.5 pounds per year. (See page 7 for further explana-
tion of half-pound rounding for articles.)
If listed toxic chemicals are present above 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). Report using the generic name
provided in the notification. (See the instructions for Part III,
Section 2 on page 16 for more information.) If the listed
chemical is present below the de minimis level, no notification
is required.
If you imported, processed, or otherwise used mixtures or
trade name products during calendar year 1988, you are
required to use the best information you have available to
determine whetherthe components of a mixture are above the
de minimis concentration and therefore must be included in
threshold and release determinations. If you know that a
mixture or trade name product contains a specific toxic chemi-
cal, combine the amount of the chemical in the mixture or
product with the individual amounts of the same chemical
manufactured, processed, or otherwise used at yourfacilityfor
threshold and release determinations. If you know only the
maximum concentration of the toxic chemical present in the
mixture or product, then you are required to assume that the
toxic chemical is present at that concentration and calculate
the weight accordingly. (See Figure 2 for more information.)

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING SPECIFIC SECTIONS OF EPA FORM R
The following are specific instructions for completing each part
of EPA Form R. The number designations of the parts and
sections of these instructions correspond to those In Form R
unless otherwise indicated.
A sample, completed Form R for a hypothetical facility report-
ing under Title III, section 313, is included as Appendix A (page
47). You may want to refer to this sample as you read through
these instructions.
Answer this question only after vou have completed the rest of
the report. The specific identity of the toxic chemical being
reported in Part III, Sections 1.2 and 1.3, may be designated
as trade secret. If you are making a trade secret claim, mark
"yes" and proceed to Section 1.2. Only check "Yes" if it is your
manufacturing, processing, or use of the chemical that is a
trade secret. (See page 1 of these instructions for specific
information on trade secrecy claims.) If you checked "no,"
proceed to Section 1.3; do not answer Section 1.2.
Instructions for Completing All Parts of Form R:
1. Type or print information on the form in the units and
format requested.
2. Longitudinal and latitudinal data were optional for the
1987 reports but are required for 1988 and subsequent
reporting years. All information on Form R is required
except Part III, Section 8.
3. Do not leave items on Form R blank unless specifically
directed to do so; if an item does not apply to you, enter
"NA," not applicable, in the space provided. If your
information does not fill all the spaces provided for a type
of information, enter NA, in the next blank space in the
sequence.
4. Do not submit an incomplete form. The certification
statement (Part I) specifies that the report is complete as
submitted. See page 1 of these instructions for the defini-
tion of a complete submission.
5. When completing Part IV, supplemental information, or
additional pages for Part II of the form, number the
additional information sequentially from the prior sections
of the form.
6. The box labelled "This space for your optional use" on
each page may be used to differentiate one chemical-
specific submission from another. You are nol required to
enter any information in this space. See page 2 for use
of this box relating to a voluntary revision of a previous
submission.
1.2 If "yes" in 1.1. is this copy sanitized or unsanitlzed?
Answer this question only after you have completed the rest of
the report. Check "sanitized" if this copy of the report is the
public version and you have claimed the chemical identity
trade secret in Part III, Section 1.1. Otherwise, check "unsani-
tized."
1.3 Reporting Year
Enter the last two digits of the calendar year to which the
reported information applies, not the year in which you are
submitting the report. Information for the 1988 reporting year
must be submitted on or before July 1, 1989.
2. Certification
The certification statement must be signed by the owner or
operator ora senior official with management responsibility for
the person (or persons) completing the form. The owner,
operator, or official must certify the accuracy and complete-
ness of the information reported on the form by signing and
dating the certification statement. Each report must contain
an original signature. Print or type in the space provided the
name and title of the person who signs the statement. This
certification statement applies to all the information supplied
on the form and should be signed only after the form has been
completed.
3. Facility Identification
PART I. FACILITY IDENTIFICATION INFORMATION
1.1 Are vou claiming the chemical identity on page 3 trade
secret?
3.1 Facility Name and Location
Enter the name of your facility (plant site name or appropriate
facility designation), street address, city, county, state, and zip
code 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 otherwise used.
-------
Page 13
Form R - Part I
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 forthe 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 orgroup 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.
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 (S\G) Code
Enter the appropriate 4-digit primary Standard Industrial Clas-
sification (SIC) code for your facility (Table I, page 30, lists the
SIC codes within the 20-39 range). If the report covers more
than one establishment, enterthe primary 4-digit SIC code for
each establishment. You are required to enterSIC codes only
for those establishments within the facility that fall within SIC
codes 20 to 39.
3.6 Latitude and Longitude
Enterthe 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 B (page 52). 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
(D&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 orfinancial officer. You can also obtain the numbers
from your local Dun and Bradstreet office (check the White
Paaesl. 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 Brad-
street 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.
-------
Form R - Part II
Page 14
3.9 NPDES Permit Number
Enterthe numbers of any permits yourfacility holds underthe
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES).
This 9-digit permit number is assigned to yourfacility by EPA
or the State underthe authority of the Clean Water Act. If your
facility 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 f. 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 ail stream names that relate to all covered
chemicals being reported by the facility. Enter the name of the
first 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 you do not have a permit,
enter the name of the off-site stream or water body by which
it is publicly known. Be sure to include the receiving stream(s)
or water body(ies) that receive stormwater runoff from your
facility. Do not enter names of streams to which off-site
treatment plants discharge. Also do not list a series of streams
through which the chemical flows. Enter not applicable, NA, in
3.10a. if you do not discharge any listed toxic chemicals to
surface water bodies.
3.11 Underground Injection Well Code (DIG) Identification
Number
If your facility has a permit to inject a chemical-containing
waste that includes the toxic chemicals into Class 1 deep
wells, enter the 12-digit Underground Injection Well Code
(UIC) identification number assigned by EPA or by the State
under the authority of the Safe Drinking Water Act. If your
facility does not hold such a permit(s), enter not applicable,
NA, in 3.11 a.
4. Parent Company Information
You must provide information on your parent company. For
purposes of Form R, a parent company is defined as the
highest holder located in the United States that directly owns
at least 50 percent of the voting stock of your company. If your
facility is owned by a foreign entity, enter not applicable, NA,
in this space. Corporate names should be treated as parent
company names for companies with multiple sites. For
example, the Bestchem Corporation is not owned orcontrolled
by any other corporation. It has several sites throughout the
country whose names begin with Bestchem. In this case,
Bestchem Corporation would be listed as the "parent" com-
pany.
4.1 Name of Parent Company
Enterthe name of the corporation or other business entity that
is your parent company. If your facility has no parent com-
pany, enter not applicable, NA.
4.2 Parent Company's Dun & Bradstreet Number
Enter the Dun and Bradstreet Number for your parent com-
pany, if applicable. The number may be obtained from the
treasurer or financial officer of the company. If your parent
company does not have a Dun and Bradstreet number, enter
not applicable, NA.
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 01 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 facility name line of 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 for these 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.
-------
Page 15
Form R-Part III
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. If you do not ship or
transfer wastes containing toxic chemicals to off-site loca-
tions, enter not applicable, NA in the Off-site location name line
of 2.1. Also enter the EPA Identification Number (RCRA I.D.
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 indicate in the
space provided whetherthe location is owned or controlled by
your facility or your parent company. If the facility does not
have a RCRA I.D. number, enter not applicable, NA, in this
space.
If 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
Yourfacility is involved in chrome plating of metal parts, which
are shipped to an off-site warehouse not owned by your
company for distribution. Your facility 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 recovery firm. Chromium is recov-
ered from the sludge by an ion exchange process. Yourfacility
also produces a solid waste containing chromium, which is
sent to an off-site permitted landfill owned by yourfacility.
You must report the locations of the POTW and the permitted
landfill in Sections 1 and 2 of Part II of Form R. Do not report
the location of the warehouse or give any information about
the on-site treatment plant in this section. Indicate that the
landfill is underthe control of yourfacility. You are not required
to report the location of the off-site, privately owned recovery
firm or provide any information concerning off-site recovery.
PART III. CHEMICAL-SPECIFIC INFORMATION
In Part III, you areto identify the toxic chemical being reported.
You are to indicate some general uses and activities related to
the chemical at your facility. Also in Part III you will enter
quantitative data relating to releases of the chemical directly
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. The final required section
provides for reporting of waste treatment information. An
additional optional section is included in this part that allows
you to report waste minimization information associated with
the chemical.
1.1 [Reserved]
1.2 CAS Number
Enter the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry number
in Section 1.2 exactly as it appears in Table II, page 36, for the
chemical being reported. CAS numbers are cross-referenced
with an alphabetical list of chemical names in Table II of these
instructions. If you are reporting one of the chemical catego-
ries 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 report it on your sanitized Form R
and sanitized substantiation form.
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).
If the listed chemical identity is actually a product tradename
(e.g., dteofol), 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,
including 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" with 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; report a generic name in Section 1.4 below.
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.
-------
Form R - Part
Page 16
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 substantiation forms.
Enter the generic chemical name in this section only if the
following four conditions applv:
1. The amount of the particular mixture or trade name prod-
uct you "use" exceeds 10,000 pounds or the amount you
"process" exceeds the applicable process threshold for
the year (i.e., 50,000 Ibs. in 1988);
2. You determine that the mixture contains a listed toxic
chemical but the only identity you have for that chemical
is a generic name;
3. You know either the specific concentration of that toxic
chemical component or a maximum concentration figure;
and
4. You determine by multiplying the concentration figure by
the total annual amount of the whole mixture used (or
processed) that you exceed the use or process threshold
for that single, generically identified mixture component.
EXAMPLE
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 undersection
313. You therefore know that you have used 16,000 pounds
of some listedtoxicchemical which exceedsthe 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 in this section 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 other
facilities involving your products. You must check all the
blocks in this section that applv. 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
explanations supplementing those provided below.
3.1 Manufacture the Chemical
Check at least one:
a. Produce- Achemical included in this category is produced
at the facility.
b. Import- A chemical included in this category is imported
by the facility into the Customs Territory of the United
States.
Check at least one:
c. For on-site use/processing - A chemical included in this
category is produced or imported and then further proc-
essed or otherwise used at the same facility. If you check
this block you must also check at least one item in 3.2 or
3.3.
d. For sale/distribution - A chemical in this category is pro-
duced or imported specifically for sale or distribution
outside the manufacturing facility.
e. -4s a byproduct - A chemical in this category is produced
coincidentally during the production, processing, use, or
disposal 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 • A chemical in this category is produced
coincidentally as a result of the manufacture, processing
or use of another chemical but remains primarily in the
mixture or product with that other chemical.
3.2 Process the Chemical fincorporative-tvpe activities)
a. As a reactant - A natural or synthetic chemical used in
chemical reactions for the manufacture of another chemi-
cal substance or of a product. Includes, but is not limited
to, feedstocks, raw materials, intermediates, and initia-
tors.
-------
Page 17
Form R - Part III
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 rheol-
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 mon-incorporative-tvpe
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, lubri-
cants, metalworking fluids, coolants, refrigerants, and
hydraulic fluids.
c. Ancillary or other use -A chemical in this category is used
at a facility for purposes otherthan as a chemical process-
ing aid or manufacturing aid as described above. In-
cludes, but is not limited to, cleaners, degreasers, lubri-
cants, and fuels.
EXAMPLE
In the example below, it is assumed that the threshold quan-
tities for manufacture, process, or otherwise use (50,000
pounds, 50,000 pounds, and 10,000 pounds, respectively, for
1988) have been exceeded and the reporting of listed chemi-
cals is therefore required.
1. Yourfacility receives toluene and naphthalene (both listed
toxic chemicals) from an off-site location. You react the
toluene with air to form benzole 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 terepnthalic acid
(TPA). Fifty percent of the TPA is sold as a product and
50 percent is further processed at yourfacility 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 sale/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.
Yourfacility also uses, as well as processes, sulfuric acid,
a listed substance, as it serves as a process solvent to
precipitate terephthalic acid.
2. The intermediate product, from which the polyester is
prepared, contains dimethyl phthalate, a listed substance.
The method of reporting this substance depends on its
eventual disposition in the polyester production process:
(a) If the dimethyl phthalate is removed from the interme-
diate product before it is reacted to form polyester
fiber, then dimethyl phthalate is manufactured at your
facility as a byproduct.
(b) If it is incorporated into the polyester fiber in an un-
reacted form, then it is manufactured at yourfacility as
an impurity.
(c) If the dimethyl phthalate participates in the reaction to
form polyester fiber without leaving the process, then
it is processed as a reactant (intermediated as are the
ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid in the process.
Sections of Part III that have been completed for scenario
2(c), are illustrated on the following page.
3. Your facility operates a fume scrubber that uses sodium
hydroxide solution and recovers the sulfur dioxide fumes
from the phthalic acid production process as sodium
sulfate solution. Both sodium solutions are listed chemi-
cals. Your facility manufactures sodium sulfate as a
byproduct and otherwise uses sodium hydroxide.

Form R - Part III
Page 18
4. Your facility applies C.I. disperse yellow 3, a listed chemi-
cal, to the finished polyester fiber as a dye, which is
incorporated into the polyester fiber product and remains
in the product after it is sold. Your facility processes the
C.I disperse yellow 3 as an article component.

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 forthe total aggregate releases
of the toxic chemical to the environment on-site from your
facility for the calendar year. Releases to the environment
include emissions to the air, discharges to surface waters, and
releases to land and underground injection wells. If you have
no releases to a particular media (e.g., stack air), enter not
applicable, NA; do not leave 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 a toxic
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 coppercompoundsfrom 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
These are 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 connections,
open-ended lines, etc.; (2) evaporative losses from surface
impoundments; (3) releases from building ventilation sys-
tems; and (4) any other fugitive or non-point air emissions.
5.2 Stack or Point Air Emissions
These are 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 category.
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.
-------
Form R - Part
Page 20
5.4 Underground Injection
Enterthe total annual amount of the chemical that was injected
into all wells, including Class I wells, at the facility.
5.5 Releases to Land
Report quantities of the chemical that were landf illed, treated
or applied in farming, impounded, or otherwise disposed of §1
the facility. Do not report land disposal at off-site locations in
this section.
For the purpose of this form, a surface impoundment is
considered "final disposal." Quantities of the chemical re-
leased to surface impoundments that are used merely as part
of a wastewater treatment process generally must not be
reported in this section of the form. However, if the impound-
ment 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 underthe appropriate section of the form). Forthe
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.
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
fortreatment ordisposal (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 in
your estimate of the quantity released.
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. The fractional figure may be entered in
column A.2. However, EPA encourages rounding to the
nearest pound. For example, 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 not use 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 releases of less than 0.5 pounds from the processing or
use of an article does not negate the article status of that item.
Thus, if the only releases you have are from an article and such
releases are less than 0.5 pounds per year, you are not
required to submit a report for that chemical.
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 releases 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
figure in column A.2, as described below. However, do not
mark a range and also enter a specific estimate in A.2.
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 is
required to be accurate to no more than two significant digits.
A.2 Enter Estimate
If you do not use the range reporting option, provide your
estimates of releases in pounds for the year in column A.2.
This estimate is required to be rounded to no more than two
significant digits.
Calculating Releases - To provide the release information
required in both columns A.1 and A.2 in this section of the
form, you must use all readily available data (including rele-
vant monitoring data and emissions measurements) collected
at your facility pursuant to other provisions of law 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 quantities or
concentrations of any toxic chemical released into the environ-
ment, or of the frequency of such releases, is required for the
purpose of completing this form, bevond 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 component of the waste stream
in this estimate. If the toxic chemical present at your facility
was part of a mixture ortrade name product, calculate only the
releases of the chemical. Do not report releases of the other
components of the mixture or trade name product. If you are
-------
Page 21
Form R - Part
only able to estimate the releases of the mixture ortrade name
product as a whole, you must assume that the release of the
toxic chemical is proportional to its concentration in the mix-
ture or trade name product. See section 372.30(b) of the
reporting rule (Appendix G) for further information on how to
calculate the concentration and weight in the mixture ortrade
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 yourfacility releases 11,000 pounds per
year of chlorophenols.
For listed chemicals with the qualifier "solution," such as
sodium sulfate, at concentrations of 1 percent (or 0.1 percent
in the case of a carcinogen) or greater, the chemical concen-
trations must be factored into threshold and release calcula-
tions 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
Your facility disposes of 14,000 pounds of lead chromate
(PbCrO4PbO) and 15,000 pounds of zinc dichromate
(ZnCr2O73H2O) 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 four separate
reports on the following: lead compounds, zinc compounds,
selenium compounds, and chromium compounds. However,
the quantities you would be reporting would be the pounds of
"parent" metal being released or transferred off-site. All
quantities are based on mass balance calculations (See
Section 5.B for information on Basis of Estimate and Section
6.C for treatment/ disposal codes and information on transfers
of chemical wastes). You would calculate releases of lead,
zinc, chromium, and selenium by first determining the percent-
age by weight of these metals in the materials you use as
follows:
Lead Chromate (PbCrO4PbO) -
Molecular weight =
Lead 2Pb-
Molecular weight =
Chromate 1 Cr -
Molecular weight =
546.37
207.2x2 = 414.4
51.996
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.
14,000 pounds of lead chromate contains:
14,000 x 0.7585 = 10,619 Ibs of lead
14,000 x 0.0952 = 1,332.8 Ibs of chromium
Similarly, zinc dichromate is (65.38/335.4) = 19.49% zinc and
(51.996x2/335.4) = 31.01% chromium, and lead selenate is
(207.2/350.17) = 59.17% lead and (78.96/350.17) = 22.55%
selenium.
The total pounds of lead, chromium, zinc, and selenium
released or transferred from yourfacility are as follows:
Lead
Release:
0.7585 x 14,000 = 10,619.0 Ibs from lead chromate (round
to 11,000 Ibs)
Transfer:
0.5917 x 16,000 = 9,467.2 Ibs from lead selenate (round to
9,500 Ibs)
As an example, the releases and transfers of lead should be
reported as illustrated on the next page.
Chromium
Release:
0.0952 x 14,000 =1,332.8 Ibs from lead chromate (round to
1,300 Ibs)
Release:
0.3101 x 15,000 = 4,651.5 Ibs from zinc dichromate (round
to 4,700 Ibs)
Zins
Release:
0.1949 x 15,000 = 2,923.5 Ibs from zinc dichromate (round
to 2,900 Ibs)

Selenium
Transfer:
0.2255 x 16,000 = 3,608.0 Ibs of selenium from lead
selenate (round to 3,600 Ibs)
B. Basis of Estimate
For each release estimate, you are required to indicate the
principal method by which the quantity was derived. Enter a
letter code from below that identifies the method that applies
to the largest portion of the total estimated quantity. EPA
requires that decimal fractions be rounded to no more than two
significant digits when reporting releases.
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
forthe 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 equip-
ment type (e.g., air emission factors).
O -Estimate is based on other approaches such as engineer-
ing calculations (e.g., estimating volatilization using pub-
lished mathematical formulas) or best engineering judg-
ment. This would include applying an estimated removal
efficiency to a waste stream, even if the composition of
the stream before treatment was fully characterized by
monitoring data.
If the monitoring data, mass balance, or emission factor used
to estimate the release is not specific to the toxic chemical
being reported, the form should identify the estimate as based
on engineering calculations or judgment.
If a mass balance calculation yields the flow rate of a waste
stream, but the quantity of reported chemical in the waste
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 waste stream.
If the concentration of the chemical in the waste stream was
measured by monitoring equipment and the flow rate of the
waste stream 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 waste stream being
released into the environment as opposed to measured in
other process streams containing the chemical.
C. Percent From Stormwater
This column relates only to Section 5.3 - Discharges to
receiving streams or water bodies. If yourf acility 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 (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
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 g zinc
= 87.9 Ibs zinc
The total amount of zinc discharged from all sources of your
facility is:
250 Ibs zinc from wastewater discharge
+ 87.9 Ibs zinc from stormwater runoff
337.9 Ibs zinc total water discharge
Round to 340 Ibs. of zinc for report.
The percentage of zinc discharged through stormwater is:
87.9/337.9 X 100 = 26%
If yourfacility does not have periodic measurements of storm-
water releases of the chemical, but has submitted chemical-
specific monitoring data in permit applications, then these data
must be used to calculate the percent contribution from
stormwater. Rates of flow can be estimated by multiplying the
annual amount of rainfall by the land area of the facility and
then multiplying that figure by the runoff coefficient. The runoff
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
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 yourfacility is 42
acres (about 170,000 square meters or 1,829,520 square
feet). The area of yourfacility 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:
Land Use % Area
Unimproved area 50
Asphaltic streets 10
Concrete pavement 40

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.
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 numberfromPart 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 these 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 number from Part II, Section 2 corresponding to the
oft-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
these transfers.
A. Total Transfers
Follow the instructions for providing estimates as presented in
the instructions for column A of Section 5 above. Enter the
amount, in pounds, of the toxic chemical that is being trans-
ferred, including 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, if you have no off-site transfers.
B. Basis of Estimate
You must identify the basis for your estimate. Enterthe 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.
C. Type 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, Item S of the Annual/Biennial Hazard-
ous Waste Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Report (RCRA).
Applicable codes for this Section 6(c) are as follows:
M10 Storage Only
M40 Solidification/Stabilization
M50 Incineration/Thermal Treatment
M61 Wastewater Treatment (Excluding POTW)
M69 Other Treatment
M71 Underground Injection

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 waste stream types containing the chemical
being reported; (B) the waste-treatment methods used on all
waste streams containing the chemical; (C) the range of
concentrations 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. Report in this section only information about treat-
ment of waste streams at vour facility, not about off-site
treatment. If you do not perform on-site treatment of wastes,
enter not applicable, NA, in 7.1b.
A. General Waste Stream
For each waste treatment method, indicate the type of waste
stream contain ing the chemical that is treated. Enterthe letter
code that corresponds to the general waste stream 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
-------
Form R - Part 111
Page 26
viscosity or density of the waste is considerably different from
that of process wastewater.
B. Treatment Method
Enter the appropriate code from one of the lists below foreach
treatment method used on a waste stream containing the toxic
chemical, regardless of whether the treatment method actu-
ally removes the specific chemical being reported. Treatment
methods must be reported for each type of waste being
treated (i.e., gaseous wastes, aqueous wastes, liquid non-
aqueous wastes, and solids).
Waste streams containing the chemical may have a single
source or may be aggregates of many sources. For example,
process waterf ram several pieces of equipment at yourf acility
may be combined prior to treatment. Report treatment meth-
ods that apply to the aggregate waste stream, as well as
treatment methods that apply to individual waste streams. If
your facility treats various wastewater streams containing the
chemical in different ways, the different treatment methods
must each be listed separately.
Your facility may have several pieces of equipment perform-
ing a similar service and for such equipment you may combine
the reporting on a single line. It is not necessary to enter four
lines of datatocoverfourscrubberunits.forexample, if allfour
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.

C. Range of Influent Concentration
The form requires an indication of the range of concentration
of the toxic chemical in the waste stream (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 milligrams/kilogram (mass/
mass) for solids and liquids; cubic centimeters/ cubic meter
(volume/volume) for gases; milligrams/liter for solutions or
dispersions of the chemical in water; and milligrams of chemi-
cal/kilogram of airf or 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 milligrams/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.]
D. Sequential Treatment?
The blocks in this column may be used in the following case:
Q Individual treatment steps are used in a series to treat the
chemical, but
Q You have no data on the individual efficiencies of each
step, but you are able to estimate the overall efficiency of
the treatment sequence.
If this is the case, then you may do the following:
Q List the appropriate codes for the treatment steps in order
(column B) and then put an "X" in the boxes in column D
for all these sequential treatment steps.
Q Enter the appropriate code for the influent concentration
(column C) for only the first treatment step in the se-
quence. Leave this item blank for the rest of the treatment
steps in the sequence only . Enter NA in column E for the
efficiency of preceding steps in the sequence.
Q Provide the treatment efficiency (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 preceding steps in the
sequence.
An example of how to use the sequential treatment option is
provided in Appendix A (page 47).
E. Treatment Efficiency Estimate
In the space provided, enter the number indicating the per-
centage of the toxic chemical removed from the waste stream
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 or the
waste stream. The efficiency refers only to the percent
conversion or removal of the listed toxic chemical from the
waste stream, not the percent conversion or removal of other
waste stream constituents (alone or together with the listed
chemical), and not the general efficiency of the method for any
waste stream. For some treatments, the percent removal will
represent removal by several mechanisms, as in secondary
wastewater treatment, where a chemical may evaporate, be
biodegraded, or be physically removed in the sludge.
Percent removal must be calculated as follows:
x100
I
where I = mass of the chemical in the influent waste stream
and E = mass of the chemical in the effluent waste stream.
-------
Form R - Part
Page 28
Q Mark yes or no in column F only in connection with the final
step in the sequence. Do not mark in this column for pro-
ceeding steps in the sequence.
Calculate the mass or weight of chemical in the waste stream
being treated by multiplying the concentration (by weight) of
the chemical in the waste stream by the flow rate. In most
cases, the percent removal compares the treated effluent to
the influent for the particular type of waste stream. However,
for some treatment methods, such as incineration or solidifica-
tion of wastewater, the percent removal of the chemical from
the influent waste stream would be reported as 100 percent
because the waste stream 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 waste stream. 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 waste stream, 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.
All data available at your facility must be utilized to calculate
treatment efficiency and influent chemical concentration. You
are not required to collect any new dataf or the purposes of this
reporting requirement. If data are lacking, estimates must be
made using best engineering judgment or other methods.
F. Based on Operating Data?
This cojumn 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 column 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 effluent waste
comparison or the flow rate, check "No."
ously indicated, in Part II, Section 2.1, of Form R, the location
of the off-site facilities and the quantity of each reported
chemical transferred to off-site facilities in Part III, Section
6.2.1, of the form, using a separate form for each chemical.
One waste stream generated by your facility is aqueous waste
containing lead chromate, zinc dichromate, 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 wastewater treatment. The on-site wastewater treat-
ment plant precipitates metal sludges. The wastewater is first
treated with sulfuric acid and sodium disulfate to reduce the
hexavalent chromate to trivalent chromium and then treated
with lime to raise the pH. This precipitates chromium hydrox-
ide, 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 should02! 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 calculate the percent removal of chromium, lead,
zinc, and selenium, by subtracting the amount of each metal
in the wastewater discharge from the amount of each metal in
the wastewater before treatment, and then dividing by the
amount of each metal in the wastewater before treatment.
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.

Your facility produces several different waste streams treated
on-site and transferred to off-site facilities. You have previ-
8. 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 that may not
have been reflected in your responses to previous sections of
the form. Waste minimization reduces the amount of the
-------
Page 29
Form R - Part
chemical in wastes that are generated. Treatment or disposal
does not minimize waste, but recycling or reuse of a waste
should be counted as waste minimization. Waste minimiza-
tion applies to air emissions and wastewater, as well as to
liquid or solid materials that are released, disposed of, or
treated. For example, a program to recycle material from
reactor clean ing could reduce the amount of a listed chemical
in wastewater prior 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 cap-
tured in tt.is section
A. Type of Modification
Enter from the following list the one code that best describes
the type of waste minimization activity:
M1 Recycling/Reuse On-Site
M2 Recycling/Reuse Off-Site
M3 Equipment/Technology Modifications
M4 Process Procedure Modifications
M5 Reformulation/Redesign of Product
M6 Substitution of Raw Materials
M7 Improved Housekeeping, Training, Inventory

M8 Other Waste Minimization Technique
B. Quantity of the Chemical in the Wastestream Prior to
Treatment/Disposal
Enter the pou nds of the toxic chemical contained in all wastes
in the reporting year and the pounds contained in all wastes in
the year prior to 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 follow-
ing formula:
(toxic chemical in wastes in reporting year -
toxic chemical in wastes in prior yeart
toxic chemical in wastes in prior year
X100
The resulting figure may be either negative or positive (i.e., if
the amount of waste generated has been reduced, a negative
number should be reported).

Enterthe ratio of reporting-year production to production in the
year prior to the reporting year. This index should be calcu-
lated to most closely reflect activities involving the chemical.
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. Ex-
amples of acceptable indices include:
Q Amount of chemical produced in 1988/amount of chemi-
cal produced in 1987. For example, a company manufac-
tures 200,000 pounds of a chemical in 1987 and 250,000
pounds of the same chemical in 1988. The index figure to
report would be 1.3 (1.25 rounded to two significant
digits).
Q Amount of paint produced in 1988/amount of paint pro-
duced in 1987.
Q Number of appliances coated in 1988/number of appli-
ances coated in 1987.
Q Square feet of solar collector fabricated in 1988/square
feet of solar collector fabricated in 1987.
D. Reason for Action
Finally, enter the codes from the following list that best
describe the reason for initiating the waste minimization 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).

APPENDIX A
EXAMPLE OF A COMPLETED FORM R FOR A HYPOTHETICAL FACILITY
REPORTING UNDER TITLE III, SECTION 313
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.
Facility Description
Your company manufactures lead-acid batteries at a plant in
New Mexico. Yourcompany also operates a lead smelterthat
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 oxide 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 yourfacility 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 yourfacility. 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.
Yourfacility's battery production capacity is 5000 batteries per
day, and the facility normally operates 24 hours per day, 300
days per year. If sulfuric acid was manufactured, processed,
or used at the battery plant in amounts that exceed the
applicable thresholds, you would be required to report re-
leases of sulfuric acid separately. Similarly, releases of lead
and lead compounds from the remotely located lead smelter
must be reported separately, if manufactured, processed, or
used in amounts that exceed the thresholds.
Process Description
A lead-acid battery consists of a number of electrolytic cells,
each containing 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-conduct-
ing material (e.g., plastic) and surrounded by an electrolytic
(conductive) solution of sulfuric acid and water.
The first steps in the battery manufacturing process are grid
casting and lead oxide (PbO) production. Lead ingots are
melted and reformed by grid molding machines. The grids are
ejected from the molds, trimmed, and stacked. Lead fumes
from the lead melting and grid casting process are exhausted
to the atmosphere without emission controls. The melting and
casting process produces no wastewater.
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 particulates
are entrained in the mill exhaust air, which is treated sequen-
tially by a cyclone separator and fabric filter. The used fabric
fitter 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 battery paste,
which is applied to the lead grids to form battery plates. Lead
and lead oxide dust are emitted from the paste mixer during
charging of the dry materials, and from the mixer exhaust
during wet mixing. The mixer is vented to a fabric filter during
charging and to a wet scrubber during wet mixing. The fabric
filter and wet scrubber vent to the same stack. The paste
mixing and application process produces wastewater fromthe
wet scrubber blowdown and also from washdown of the paste
mixing equipment and mixing area. Scrubber 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. Wash-
down 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 48
The plates are then dried and cured under controlled tempera-
ture and humidity conditions. The plate drying and curing
operation produces no wastewater or particulate emissions.
Cured plates are sent to a three-process operation that
involves manual separation of the plates, stacking 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.
Particulate 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, as only non-contact cooling
water is used in the burning process. [Note: Even though lead
is contained in the cooling water used by your 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 and not added in 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
particulate, 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 pretreated on-site and then piped to
the local publicly owned treatment works (POTW).
Determining Reporting Requirements Under Section 313
To determine your eligibility for reporting under section 313,
you must ascertain whether the total quantity of any listed
chemical orchemical compound manufactured, processed, or
used at your facility over the course of the calendar year
exceeds any applicable threshold. For the facility described
above, your determination of eligibility 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.
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 (produces) lead peroxide. This
activity also occurs in the formation process, where lead
oxide is oxidized to lead peroxide.
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 1988 reporting year is 50,000 pounds; the
threshold for processing is also 50,000 pou nds. These thresh-
olds drop to 25,000 pounds for the 1989 reporting year. Your
facility both manufactures and processes, as it produces
1,500,000 batteries per year. Each battery contains 25
pounds of lead, half of which 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 first combined before being compared to the
processing threshold, because both lead and lead compounds
are separately listed chemicals. If you added the amount of
lead processed into lead oxide to that then processed into lead
-------
Page 49
peroxide, you would be double counting.] For sequential
processes, use the amount of the final process material to
determine whether the threshold is exceeded. Since your
facility employs more than 10 people and falls within SIC codes
20-39, your facility 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 water
naturally containing lead.]
Calculating the Maximum Quantity of Lead and Lead Com-
pounds. To calculate the maximum amount of lead and lead
compounds present at your facility at any one time, you must
consider aJl types of metallic lead and aJJ types of lead
compounds present at your facility, including stockpiled raw
matehals (i.e., lead ingots), lead and lead oxide present in
process equipment (i.e., molten lead contained in the grid
casting system, lead and lead oxide contained in the paste
mixer), the inventory of metallic lead and lead peroxide con-
tained 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 your facility 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 1988, you conducted stack tests to
determine air releases from the battery facility. The release
data provided baseline data for a proposed 1989 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;
Q 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 determined as part of the stack
testing program. These have been estimated by your facility's
engineering department to be less than 100 pounds per year.
Measurements 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 1988 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 the form. The stack test results provide
the concentration of metallic lead in each exhaust stream in
grains per cubic foot and the exhaust rate in cubic feet per
minute. You are required to report releases or release ranges
in pounds per year. Using the appropriate conversion factors,
knowing the scrubber efficiency (from the manufacturer's
data), and assuming your facility 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 2400 Ib/yr, which is greater than 999 Ib/yr, you must
enter the actual calculated amount in column A.2 of Section
5.2. Non-point (fugitive) air releases are 100 Ib/yr (which is
less than 999 Ib/yr), so you may either enter the actual
calculated amount in column A.2, or enter the appropriate
range (1-499 Ib/yr) 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 appropri-
ate.
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 releases of lead
compounds to the nearby stream total 6.2 pounds per year.
Since the total quantity of lead released is less than 999 Ib/yr,
you may enter the actual amount calculated in column A.2 of
Section 5.3.1 a, or mark the applicable range (1-499 Ib/yr) 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 number forthe receiving stream or water
body you designated in Part I, Section 3.10 must be entered.

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
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 reporting
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.2 of
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 from 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
in 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 Ib/yr, 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 impoundment, entered in column
B of Section 5, is mass balance calculations (code C).
Calculation of Transfers of Lead to Off-Site Locations
Discharge to POTW. Wastewater from battery wash and
battery repair operations at your plant is discharged to the
local POTW. The discharge monitoring system data collected
by your 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. Yourf acility 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 III, Section 6.1, of the form. Because the
releases of lead are less than 999 Ib/yr, you may mark the
appropriate range in column A.1 or enter the actual calculated
amount in 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 wastewa-
ter treatment systems. You must also enter the name of the
POTW in Part II, Section 1.1.
Transfers to OtherOfi-Site Locations. Your facility returns the
lead paniculate collected by the fabric fitters 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, Sections 6.2.1, 6.2.2, or 6.2.3, of the
form. Your facility discharges used fabric filter bags contami-
nated 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 engineering department
estimates 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
for the 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 is
entered in Part II, Section 2.1, of the form.
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 IV,
Section 7, of the 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 of the form. Table III of the instructions for Form R
provides treatment codes to be entered in column B of Section
7.
Air Treatment Systems. Fabric filters and cyclone collectors
are considered to be mechanical separation systems; the
treatment code forthese systems Is A06. The treatment code
for wet scrubbers is A03. Information on each air treatment
system must be entered individually in Section 7. The cyclone
collector and fabric filter on the lead oxide mill exhaust are
considered to be sequential treatment systems, because both
systems treat the same wastestream in sequence. Therefore,
sequential treatment must be indicated for both systems in
-------
Page 51
column D of Section 7. You are required to indicate the influent
concentration only to the first step of the sequential treatment
system (the cyclone collector) and must report the overall
treatment efficiency of the system entered on the line for the
last treatment step (the fabric filter). Note that the wet
scrubber and fabric filter on the grid paste mixer exhaust are
not sequential treatment steps, because each treats a differ-
ent wastestream generated at different times during the same
process.
In Section 7, columns C and E, respectively, you must indicate
the range of influent concentration and treatment efficiency for
each treatment system listed. You must estimate the effi-
ciency and influent concentration of each air emission treat-
ment system, as the stack test program did not determine
influent concentrations. You have 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.
significant cost-savings. The most significant savings is in the
cost of treating the sludge; the value of the recovered lead is
less significant. The amount of lead formerly disposed of at
the off-site facility is approximately 100 Ib/yr; the same
amount is now recovered by the smelter. The code for the type
of modification is M2 (recovery off-site) and that forthe 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, your 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 your facility has been
briefed on the information contained in the report and has
signed the certification (Part I, Section 2). If separate roports
were being prepared for lead and lead compounds, your 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.
The treatment code for treatment of grid paste application
washwater in the multi-stage settler is P11 (settling/clarifica-
tion), and the treatment code for process reuse of the waste-
water is R99 (other recovery/reuse). The code forevaporation
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, becausv the wastewater streams are
completely eliminated throu^n evaporation and reuse respec-
tively. 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 considered disposal to land for the 1,500
pounds of lead that were sent to the impoundment.
Information on Waste Minimization. Your 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 1987, however, process modifica-
tions allowed you to return the sludge to the off-site smelter
operated by your company for recovery and reuse, resulting in

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) = 1' (minute)
60' (minutes) = 1° (degree)
To determine the latitude and longitude of your facility you will
need the following:
Q Topographic map from United States Geological
Survey (USGS)
Q Ruler graduated in decimal units (cm or inches)
Q Pencil
Q Small calculator (optional).
How to Obtain USGS Maps
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
an index to 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 can provide assistance. The Center
can be contacted at (303) 236-5829.
Determining Your Facility's Latitude and Longitude
(See diagram next page.)
Once you have obtained the correct map for your facility,
follow these steps:
1. Mark the location of your facility on the map with a point.
If your facility is large, choose a point central to the pro-
duction activities of the facility. If certain structures in your
facility are represented on the map, mark one of the
structures with a point.
2. Construct a small quadrangle (a four-sided figure) around
the point with fine pencil lines connecting the nearest 21/
2' or 5' graticules. Graticules are intersections of latitude
and longitude lines that are marked on the map edge, and
appear as black crosses at four points in the interior of the
map.
3. Read and record the latitude and longitude for the south-
east corner of the small quadrangle drawn in step two.
The latitude and longitude are printed at the edges of the
map.
4. To determine the increment of latitude above the latitude
line recorded in step 3,
- position the map so that you face its west edge;
- place the ruler in approximately a north-south align-
ment, with the "0" on the latitude line recorded in step
3 and the edge intersecting the point.
Without moving the ruler, read and record:
- the measurement from the latitude line to the desired
point (the point distance);
- the measurement from the latitude line to the north line
of the small quadrangle (the total distance).
Determine the number of seconds to be added to the
latitude recorded in step 3 by using the ratio:
Point distance
Total distance
between lines
x 150' = increment of latitude
[Note: 150" is the number of seconds of arc tor the side of
the small quadrangle on a 7.5' map. If you are using a 15'
map, the multiplication factor is 300" instead ot 150" since
each graticule is 5' of latitude or longitude.]
-------

For example:
Point distance =
Total distance =
99.5 X150"
192.0
99.5
192.0
77.7' = 01'17.7"
- 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:
(60'=1'; 77.7"-60"
Latitude in step 3
Increment
Latitude of point
32°17'30"
+ 01-17.7"
32°18'47.7"
to the nearest second = 32°18'48"
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:
Point distance
Total distance
between lines
For example:
Point distance =
Total distance =
x 150" = increment of longitude
65.0
149.9
65.0 x 150" = 66.4" = 01*06.4"

(60" = 1 '; 66.4" - 60" = 01 '06.4")

WORKSHEET FOR PERFORMING THRESHOLD DETERMINATIONS
1. Identify all chemicals used on-site. Thlssurvey will include
all chemicals purchased, produced, present as impuri-
ties/by-products, intermediate chemicals, and chemicals
produced during waste treatment. Sources of information
on chemicals used are:
Q Purchasing department, which should have a list of all
items the facility has purchased; and
Q Process engineers, production supervisors, mainte-
nance supervisors, and plant managers, who can iden-
tify the purchased items that are actually chemicals and
other chemicals used which may not enter the plant as
purchased items, such as by-products, impurities, in-
termediates, or chemicals formed as part of a waste
treatment process.
2. Determine what the chemical is used f orf rom the person-
nel in the operation actually using the chemical. If the
chemical is used for routine janitorial services, operation
or maintenance or transportation equipment, or is used in
the laboratory under the supervision of qualified person-
nel it should be excluded from threshold determinations.
4. Determine the amount of the chemical or mixture used by
filling the appropriate columns In Table 2 based on the
data you have available and what data you believe to be
the most accurate. If a chemical/mixture has multiple
uses (e.g., it Is produced and otherwise used), do sepa-
rate estimates f orthe different uses and make two entries
for this chemical/mixture in Table 1.
If a basis other than purchases/inventories or production
rate is used, attach calculations showing how the use was
derived to Table 2.
5. Calculate values for column E for each specific chemical
compound or category present in the mixture. For pure
compounds, columns D and E will have the same value.
6. Determine the type of use and mark the appropriate
column (i.e., M = manufacture, P = processed, O =
otherwise used).
7. Complete Table 3. Take values from column E for each
specific chemical and sum them. Do separate calcula-
tions for chemicals with different uses.
3. Fill in columns A, B, and C of Table I for all chemicals or
mixtures containing section 313 chemicals identified in
Step I and not excluded from Step 2. For purchased
chemicals, the material safety data sheet (MSDS) may
have a list of all components which are section 313
chemicals. For chemicals or mixtures generated on-site,
the process personnel may be able to provide composi-
tions. Several points to remember:
Q Check MSDSs for impurities which may also be section
313 chemicals;
Q The section 313 chemical list is not the same as toxic
chemical lists developed by OSHA or other agencies;
Q For chemicals which are only reportable if they are in
solution form, only the weight of the chemical is used in
threshold determination, not the weight of the solution;
Q For compounds containing metals, the weight of the
compound is used, not the weight of the parent metal;
and
Q Do not perform threshold determinations or report
chemicals which are not on the section 313 list.
For pure components, columns A and B may be identical.
For mixtures, there may be multiple entries in column B if
the mixture contains more than one section 313 chemical.
8. From Table 3 identify all chemicals which exceed the ap-
plicable threshold. Points to remember:
Q For chemicals with multiple uses, if you exceed any
threshold then the chemicals must be reported.
Q For metals, use the mass of the metal compound.
Q For solutions, use the weight of the chemical, not the
solution.
Q If a specific chemical belongs in a chemical category,
other chemicals in that category should be included as
part of the general category.
9. As a final reminder, did you:
Q Check with all plant personnel who may purchase or
use chemicals?
Q Review MSDSs for all purchased chemicals?
Q Check MSDSs of commercialgradechemicalstodeter-
mine if any impurities/by-products are present?
Q Check to determine if a particular chemical has multiple
uses?
Q Identify all chemicals produced by your process, either
-------
Page 55
intentionally (products or intermediates) or uninten-
tionally?
Retain all notes, calculations, and other materials nec-
essary to support use estimates?

[[Mote: Parts per million (ppm) is milligrams/kilogram (mass/
mass) for solids and liquids; cubic centimeters/cubic meter
(volume/volume) for gases; milligrams/liter for solutions or
dispersions of the chemical in water; and milligrams of chemi-
cal/kilogram of airf or 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 milligrams/cubic meters, multiply by 0.773 to
obtain parts per million. Factors are for standard conditions of
0°C (32°F) and 760 mmHg atmospheric pressure.]

{37X38 Exemptions.
(a) De minimi's concentrations of a
toxic chemical in a mixture. If a toxic
chemical is present in a mixture of
chemicals at a covered facility and the
toxic chemical is in a concentration in
the mixture which is below l percent of
the mixture, or 0.1 percent of the mixture
in the case of a toxic chemical which is
a carcinogen as defined in 29 CFR
1910.1200(d)(4). a person is not required
to consider the quantity of the toxic
chemical present in such mixture when
determining whether an applicable
threshold has been met under i 372.25 or
determining the amount of release to be
reported under i 372.30. This exemption
applies whether the person received the
mixture from another person or the
person produced the mixture, either by
mixing the chemicals involved or by
causing a chemical reaction which
resulted in the creation of the toxic
chemical in the mixture. However, this
exemption applies only to the quantity
of the toxic chemical present in the
mixture. If the toxic chemical is also
manufactured (including imported),
processed or otherwise used at the
covered facility other than as part of the
mixture or in a mixture at higher
concentrations, in excess of an
applicable threshold quantity set forth in
( 372.25, the person is required to report
under 1372JO.
(b) Articles. If a toxic chemical is
present in an article at a covered
facility, a person is not required to
consider the quantity of the toxic
chemical present in such article when
determining whether an applicable
threshold has been met under i 372J5 or
determining the amount of release to be
reported under | 372.30. This exemption
applies whether the person received the
article from another person or the
person produced the article. However,
this exemption applies only to the
quantity of the toxic chemical present in
the article. If the toxic chemical is
manufactured (including imported),
processed or otherwise used at the
covered facility other than as part of the
article, in excess of an applicable
threshold quantity set forth in f 372.25.
the person is required to report under
i 372JO. Persons potentially subject to
this exemption should carefully review
the definitions of "article" and "release"
in | 372.3. If a release of a toxic
chemical occurs as a result of the
processing or use of an item at the
facility, that item does not meet the
definition of "article."
(c) Uses. If a toxic chemical is used at
a covered facility for a purpose
described in this paragraph (c), a person
is not required to consider the quantity
of the toxic chemical used for such
purpose when determining whether an
applicable threshold has been met under
} 372.25 or determining the amount of
releases to be reported under | 372.30.
However, this exemption only applies to
the quantity of the toxic chemical used
for the purpose described in this
paragraph (c). If the toxic chemical is
also manufactured (including imported),
processed, or otherwise used at the
covered facility other than as described
in this paragraph (c), in excess of an
applicable threshold quantity set forth in
§ 372.25. the person is required to report
under | 372.30.

(d) Activities in laboratories. If a toxic
chemical is manufactured processed, or
used in a laboratory at a covered facility
under the supervision of a technically
qualified individual as defined in
{ 720.3(ee) of this title, a person is not
required to consider the quantity so
manufactured, processed, or used when
determining whether an applicable
threshold has been met under I 372.25 or
determining the amount of release to be
reported under i 372.30. This exemption
does not apply in the following cases:
(1) Specialty chemical production.
