THRESHOLDS TRIGGERING SECTION 313
REPORTING
• For a section 313 chemical, a facility meeting all criteria must
file a Form R report for that chemical if it:
• Manufactured (including import) more than 25,000 pounds
per year, or
• Processed more than 25,000 pounds per year, or
• Otherwise used more than 10,000 pounds per year
IliililllliiiilllliiiUllliiiilllliitilllliUHIIIinHlllilHIUHiMiniiiHTniiinillliiHlllliHillllHi
-------
CATEGORIES OF MANUFACTURING
ACTIVITIES
Manufacturing - generating a section 313 chemical
• Intentionally producing chemicals for:
» Sale
> Distribution
» On-site use or processing (e.g., intermediates)
• Coincidentally producing chemicals as impurities or
byproducts:
» That remain with the intended product
» That are formed during any part of the manufacturing
processes, including waste treatment & fuel combustion
• Importing
» "Cause" to be imported
iiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiniijiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
CATEGORIES OF PROCESSING ACTIVITIES
• Processing - the preparation of a section 313 chemical into a
product for further distribution in commerce
• Using as a reactant to manufacture another substance or
product
• Adding as a formulation component
• Incorporating as an article component
• Repackaging for distribution
-------
OTHERWISE USE
Otherwise using - any activity that is not manufacturing or
processing
Examples
• Chemical processing aid (e.g., solvents)
• Manufacturing aid (e.g., lubricants, refrigerants)
. Ancillary activities (e.g., chemicals .used to remediate
wastes)
DETERMINING CONCENTRATIONS OF
SECTION 313 CHEMICALS
Chemical component - include in threshold "each listed Section
313 chemical known to be present" at a concentration greater
than the de minimis limits (EPCRA §313 (g)(1)(C))
• "Known" - knowledge based on MSDS, labeling, literature,
other vendor-supplied information, or existing analysis
If concentration is unknown, threshold determination for the
section 313 chemical is not required (40 CFR 372.30(b)(3))
lUHHIIUililllliiiilllUUtlilliHillinHUIIIliUlillinilUliHHllIHHlllliiiilllliiiilllliliilllliiil
-------
DETERMINING CONCENTRATIONS OF
SECTION 313 CHEMICALS
• Include a section 313 chemical in the threshold determinations
if you know:
• Exact concentration - use concentration provided
• Upper bound - use upper limit
• Range - use the midpoint of the range
• Lower bound - subtract out other known constituents,
create a range, and use the midpoint of range
Note: Thresholds are based on weight in pounds.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
MIXTURES AND TRADE NAME PRODUCTS
Supplier Notification - requires suppliers to facilities described
in 40 CFR 372.22 to:
• Identify Section 313 chemical(s) by name and CAS number
• Identify Section 313 chemical(s) as being subject to EPCRA
Section 313 requirements
• Provide concentration (or range) of Section 313 chemicals
in mixtures and trade name products if above de minimis
• Provide notification at least annually in writing or attached
to the MSDS
• Update notification when changes occur

METAL COMPOUND CATEGORIES
Consider the entire weight of the compounds in the category
when determining thresholds
Include only the weight of the parent metal of the category (e.g.,
copper for copper compounds) when calculating releases, off-
site transfers, and other waste management activities
DETERMINING THRESHOLDS FOR METAL
COMPOUNDS
Example
A facility processes 100,000 pounds of a mixture containing
10% zinc chromate and 15% chromium dioxide by weight
• Quantity toward chromium compounds threshold
(10% + 15%) x (100,000) = 25,000 pounds
• Quantity toward zinc compounds threshold
(10%) x (100,000) = 10,000 pounds
• The 25,000-pound processing threshold applies, so
chromium compounds are reportable and zinc compounds
are not

WATCH FOR DOUBLE COUNTING!!!
For threshold determinations, section 313 chemicals reused or
recycled at a facility: count original amount used only once
• Note: Chemicals sent off-site for recycling and returned to
the facility are considered new materials and counted for
threshold determinations
• For materials in use from previous years: count only the
quantity added during current reporting year
Section 313 chemicals stockpiled or in inventory but not
manufactured, processed, or otherwise used during reporting
year are not counted for threshold determinations

CLARIFIED DEFINITION OF
OTHERWISE USE
• Otherwise use of a Section 313 chemical also includes
disposal, stabilization (without subsequent distribution in
commerce), or treatment for destruction on-site if:
• Section 313 chemical was received from off-site for the
purposes of further waste management, or

-------
WASTE MANAGEMENT GUIDANCE
Waste management activities include:
• Recycling
• Combustion for energy recovery
• Treatment for destruction
• Waste stabilization
• Release, including disposal
WASTE MANAGEMENT GUIDANCE
Recycling (material coming on-site for purposes of recycling):
• Recycling of a listed Section 313 chemical from a mixture
for further distribution in commerce is considered to be
"processing" of that chemical
• If a facility recycles a listed Section 313 chemical, that was
received from off-site to use as a solvent at the facility, the
chemical is considered "otherwise used"
-------
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiniiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiininiiiiiiiiiiiini
WASTE MANAGEMENT GUIDANCE
Combustion for energy recovery and defines treatment for
destruction:
• Combustion for energy recovery is the combustion of a
Section 313 chemical that is (1) a RCRA hazardous waste or
waste fuel, a constituent of a RCRA hazardous waste or
waste fuel, or a spent or contaminated "otherwise used"
material; and that (2) has a heating value high enough to
sustain combustion (e.g., 5,000 BTU/lb.)
• A Section 313 chemical that is combusted and meets
criterion, but has a heating value not high enough to sustain
combustion, is considered to be treated for destruction and
not combusted for energy recovery
• Metals have no heating value; therefore; they cannot be
considered combusted for energy recovery or treated for
destruction
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiniiiniii
WASTE MANAGEMENT GUIDANCE
Waste stabilization process:
• Any physical or chemical process used to either reduce the
mobility of hazardous constituents in a hazardous waste or
eliminate free liquid as determined by Test Method 9095 in
"Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste,
Physical/Chemical Methods" (EPA pub. SW-846)
• Includes mixing the hazardous waste with binders or other
materials, and curing the resulting hazardous waste and
binder mixture. Synonymous terms "waste fixation" and
"waste solidification."

EXERCISE 1:
CALCULATING RELEASES OF AMMONIA AND NITRATE COMPOUNDS
During the calendar year, a facility uses 200,000 pounds of nitric acid solution containing 50
percent (by weight) nitric acid (HNO3) in an etching process. All of the nitric acid is eventually
transferred to an on-site treatment facility as part of an aqueous waste stream. The nitric acid is
neutralized with pure (gaseous) anhydrous ammonia (NH3). The facility uses an excess of
ammonia to assure complete neutralization to pH 7 to 8. During the calendar year, the facility
used 30,000 pounds of ammonia. As a result of the treatment process, a nitrate compound,
ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3), is formed. The ammonium nitrate and any remaining ammonia
are then released to a watebodyr.
Using the additional information below, complete questions a through d.
Assumptions
For simplicity, assume air emissions are zero.
Chemical Name Molecular Weights
Ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3)
Ammonia (NH3)
Nitric acid (HNO3)
Nitrate ion (NO3')
Chemistry Fundamentals
= 80.04 Ib/lbmol
= 17.03 Ib/lbmol
= 63.01 Ibatmiol
= 62.01 Ib/lbmol
Nitric acid (HNO3) and anhydrous ammonia (NH3) are monovalent and react in a 1:1 ratio. One
mole of NH3 is used to neutralize each mole of HNO3 treated. When neutralized with anhydrous
ammonia, nitric acid (HNO3) produces ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) in a 1:1 ratio. These
substances are monovalent, so for each mole of HNO3 neutralized, one mole of NH4NO3 is
produced. In other words:
HNO3 + NH3 ** NH4NO3
Therefore, 63.01 pounds of nitric acid reacts with 17.03 pounds of ammonia to produce 80.04
pounds of ammonium nitrate (which contains 62.01 pounds of nitrate ion).
a) Based on the above scenario and information available, determine which toxic
chemicals would be subject to EPCRA section 313 threshold and release determinations.
-------
b) Calculate the quantity of nitric acid applied towards threshold determinations and
release calculations.
c) Calculate the quantity of ammonia applied towards threshold determinations and
release calculations.
d) Calculate the quantity of ammonium nitrate applied towards threshold
determinations and release calculations.

Inhalation; Remove from further exposure and obtain medical attention. Treatment is symptomatic for
primary irritation or difficulty in breathing. If breathing is labored, oxygen should be administered by
qualified personnel. Apply artificial respiration if breathing has ceased or shows signs of failing.
Asthmatic-like symptoms, if manifested, may develop immediately, or be delayed for up to several hours.
Skin Contact: Wash affected area thoroughly with soap and water. Launder contaminated clothing
thoroughly before reuse. If irritation, redness, or a burning sensation develops and persists, obtain medical
advice.
Eye Contact; Flush with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes, holding lids open with fingers.
If irritation persists, repeat flushing. Refer individual to a physician for immediate follow-up.
Ingestion; Do NOT induce vomiting. Provided the patient is conscious, wash out mouth with water then
give 1 or 2 glasses of water to drink. Refer person to medical personnel for immediate attention.
Note to Physicians: Symptomatic and supportive therapy as needed. Following severe exposure medical
follow-up should be monitored for 48 hours. Pulmonary disorders may be aggravated by overexposure.

(Personal Protective Equipment)
Respiratory Protection: Due to the low vapor pressure of this material, the PEL is not likely to be
exceeded under normal conditions. If the material is heated or spilled in a confined area, respiratory
protection should be worn. Because of their short life and lack of breakthrough indicators, cartridge type
respirators equipped for organic vapors are generally not recommended for use with isocyanates. They
can be used for short term emergency situations at concentrations below the PEL where the presence of
adequate breathing oxygen can be assured. Where concentrations exceed the PEL, air supplied respirators
must be used.
Eye Protection: Goggles or safety glasses with side shields. '
Protective Clothing: Chemical resistant butyl rubber, nitrile rubber, neoprene, or other suitable protective
gloves.
Ventilation: Use local exhaust ventilation if necessary to maintain levels below the PEL. For guidance on
engineering controls refer to the ACGIH publication "Industrial Ventilation".
Other: Eyewash station, safety shower and deactivating solution should be available. Refer to the
"Recommendations for the Safe Use and Handling of Instapak* Foam-in-Place Chemicals" bulletin before
handling Instapak® chemicals.

Primary Routefs") of Exposure: Skin contact from liquid. Inhalation. However, due to the low vapor pressure,
overexposure is not expected under normal conditions unless material is heated or used in a poorly ventilated
area.
Inhalation: This product is a respiratory irritant and potential respiratory sensitizer. Inhalation of vapor or
aerosol at levels above the occupational exposure limit can cause respiratory sensitization. Symptoms may
include irritation to the eyes, nose, throat, and lungs, possibly combined with dryness of the throat, tightness of
chest and difficulty in breathing. The onset of respiratory symptoms may be delayed for several hours after
exposure. A hyper-reactive response to even minimal concentrations of MDI may develop in sensitized persons.
Sensitized persons should be removed from any further exposure. Persons with asthma-type conditions or other
chronic respiratory diseases should be excluded from working with MDI. In a single evaluation of 5 men
occupationally exposed to MDI and hydrocarbon solvent vapors under conditions where adequate ventilation or
other safety precautions were not used, neuropsychologic findings were attributed to MDI.
Skin Contact: May cause irritation or rash. Can cause skin discoloration. Repeated and/or prolonged contact
may result in skin sensitization. There is limited evidence from laboratory tests that skin contact may play a role
in respiratory sensitization. This data reinforces the need to prevent direct skin contact and the importance of
protective gloves.

SECTION 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION (continued)
Eye Contact: Liquid can cause eye irritation, tearing, reddening and swelling. Permanent corneal injury is
unlikely. Exposure to MDI vapors in excess of 0.02 ppm may cause irritation.
Ingestion: Ingestion is unlikely. Based on the acute oral LD50, this product is considered practically non-toxic by
ingestion. Ingestion can cause irritation and corrosive action in the mouth, stomach and digestive tract.
Chronic Effects: A study was conducted where groups of rats were exposed for 6 hours/day, 5 days/week for a
lifetime to atmospheres of respirable polymeric MDI aerosol either at concentrations of 0, 0.2, 1, or 6 mg/m3
(which corresponds to MDI levels equal to the OSHA-PEL, 5 times the OSHA-FEL and 30 times the OSHA-
PEL). No adverse effects were observed at 0.2 mg/m3 concentrations. At the 1 mg/m3 concentration, minimal
nasal and lung irritant effects were seen. Only at the top concentration (6 mg/m3) was there an increased
incidence of benign tumor of the lung (adenoma) and one malignant tumor (adenocarcinoma). Overall, the
tumor incidence, both benign and malignant, and the number of animals with tumors were not different. The
increased incidence of lung tumors is associated with prolonged respiratory irritation and the concurrent
accumulation of yellow material in the lung. In the absence of prolonged exposure to high concentrations
leading to chronic irritation and lung damage, it is highly unlikely that tumor formation will occur.
Carcinogenicity; The ingredients of this product (>0.1%) are not classified as carcinogenic by ACGIH or I ARC,
not regulated as carcinogens by OSHA and not listed as carcinogens by NTP.
Mutageniciry: There is no substantial evidence of mutagenic potential.
Reproductive Effects: No adverse reproductive effects are anticipated.
Teratogenicity and Fetotoxicity: No birth defects were seen in two independent animal (rat) studies.
Fetotoxicity was observed at doses that were extremely toxic (including lethal) to the mother. The dose that
produced this effect (1.2 ppm) is 60 times higher than the OSHA-PEL. Fetotoxicity was not observed at doses
that were not maternally toxic. The doses used in these studies were maximal, respirable concentrations well in
excess of the defined occupational exposure limits.
SECTION 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Environmental Fate and Distribution: It is unlikely that significant environmental exposure in the air or water
will arise, based on consideration of the production and use of the substance.
Persistence and Degradation: Immiscible with water, but will react with water to produce carbon dioxide, and
inert and non-biodegradable solids.
Aquatic Toxicity:
LC50: >1000 mg/1 (Zebra fish) At the highest level of 1000 mg/1, there were no deaths.
ECj0 (24 hour): > 1000 mg/1 (Daphnea magna)
ECJO: > 100 mg/1 (E.Coli)
| SECTION 13 - DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Incinerate or dispose of in accordance with existing federal, state and local environmental control regulations.
This material is not a hazardous waste under RCRA 40 CFR 261 when disposed of in its purchased form. Small
quantities should be treated with deactivation solution outlined in Section 6. Refer to the "Recommendations for
the Safe Use and Handling of Instapak* Foam-in-Place Chemicals" bulletin for additional information
concerning disposal of wastes and empty containers. Chemical waste, regardless of quantity, should never be

BASIC FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES:
Use dry chemical, foam or carbon dioxide to extinguish fire. Water may be
ineffective but should be used to cool fire-exposed containers, structures and
to protect personnel. If leak or spill has not ignited, ventilate area and
use water spray to disperse gas or vapor and to protect personnel attempting
to stop leak. Use water to flush spills away from sources of ignition. Do
not flush down public sewers or other drainage systems.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS:
Vapors form flammable or explosive mixtures with air at room temperature.
Vapor or gas may spread to distant ignition sources and flash back. Dangerous
when exposed to heat or flame. Runoff to sewer may cause fire or explosion
hazard. Containers may explode in heat of fire. Irritating or toxic
substances may be emitted upon thermal decomposition. Dangerous when exposed
to heat or flame. Containers may explode in heat of fire. Vapors may
concentrate in confined areas. Exposed firefighters must wear MSHA/NIOSH
approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full face mask and full
protective equipment.

Plan", activate its procedures.
— Take immediate steps to stop and contain the spill. Caution should be
exercised regarding personnel safety and exposure to the spilled material.
— For technical advice and assistance related to chemicals, contact CHEMTREC
(800/424-9300) and your local fire department.
— Notify the National Response Center, if required. Also notify appropriate
state and local regulatory agencies, the LEPC and the SERC. Contact the '
local Coast Guard if the release is into a waterway.
Emergency Action:
Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay
upwind; keep out of low areas. (Also see Personal Protection Information
section.) Isolate for 1/2 mile in all directions if tank, rail car or tank
truck is involved in fire.
Spill or Leak Procedure: ;
Shut off ignition sources; no flares, smoking or flames in hazard area. Stop
leak if you can do it without risk. Water spray may reduce vapor; but it may
not prevent ignition in closed spaces. Small Spills: Take up with sand or
other noncombustible absorbent material and place into containers for later
disposal. Large Spills: Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal.;
Notification:
Any spill or release, or substantial threat of release, of this material to
navigable water (virtually any surface water) sufficient to cause a visible
sheen upon the water must be reported immediately to the National Response
Center (800/424-8802), as required by U.S. Federal Law. Failure to report may
result in substantial civil and criminal penalties. Also contact the Coast
Guard and appropriate state and local regulatory agencies.

[HALATION:
ACTICALLY NON-TOXIC TO SLIGHTLY TOXIC, May cause respiratory tract
ritation and pulmonary edema. May cause harmful central nervous system
'fects. Effects may include excitation, euphoria, headache, dizziness,
owsiness, blurred vision, fatigue, tremors, convulsions, loss of
nsciousness, coma, respiratory arrest and death. Repeated or prolonged
posures may cause behavioral changes and kidney and central nervous system
image.
============================ FIRST AID =============================FA=
fGESTION:
NOT INDUCE VOMITING BECAUSE OF DANGER OF ASPIRATING LIQUID INTO LUNGS. GET
(MEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. If spontaneous vomiting occurs, monitor for
eathing difficulty.
.IN CONTACT:
smove contaminated clothing immediately. Wash area of contact thoroughly
th soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation persists. Thermal
;rns require immediate medical attention.
:E CONTACT:
,ush immediately with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes.
'elids should be held away from the eyeball to ensure thorough rinsing. Get
sdical attention if irritation persists. Thermal burns require immediate
idical attention.
IHALATION:
amove exposed person from source of exposure. If not breathing, ensure clear
.rway and institute cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). If breathing is
.fficult, administer oxygen if available. Get immediate medical attention.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN =========================PN=
IGESTION: The most important risk to assess is the extent of aspiration of
le product into the lungs since an acute chemical pneumonitis can rapidly
rogress to respiratory failure. Gasping, coughing, and ^choking are
resumptive evidence of aspiration. It is suggested that all patients
ispected of hydrocarbon aspiration have base line chest x-rays. Immediate
aspitalization should be considered for asymptomatic children with an
>normal chest x-ray, obtunded or hypoxic patients, intentional or massive
igestions, and patients with abnormal chest x-rays with clinically
ignificant pulmonary disease.
astrointestinal symptoms are usually minor and pathological changes of the
.ver and kidney are reported to be uncommon in acute intoxications.
econtamination (induced emesis or lavage) is controversial and should be
onsidered on the merits of each individual case; of course the usual
recaution of an endotracheal tube should be considered prior to lavage.
ydrocarbons may increase the sensitivity of the myocardium to catecholamines;
Lectrocardiographic monitoring may be indicated and careful consideration
lould be given to the selection of bronchodilators.
cute central nervous system signs and symptoms may result from large
ngestions or aspiration-induced hypoxia.
NHALATION ABUSE: Gasoline is one of the solvents used by chemical substance
susers. These patients may present with acute and/or chronic central nervous
ystem signs or symptoms. They may also present with arrhythmias.

ARTICLE EXEMPTION
How It Works
If a release of a Section 313 chemical from an item occurs, the
article status may be negated
If all of the Section 313 chemical released from all like items is
recycled, then the items remain articles and the Section 313
chemical is still exempt
If less than or equal to 0.5 pounds of a Section 313 chemical is
released, and not recycled, from all like items, the release may
be rounded down to zero, and items maintain article status
If more than 0.5 pounds of a Section 313 chemical is releasedl
in a non-recognizable form and not recycled, from all like items,
none of the items meet the article exemption.

EXERCISERS: THRESHOLD QUIZ
Purpose: Familiarize participants with the criteria for TRI reporting, including thresholds for
manufacturing, processing, or otherwise using listed chemicals, which determine
whether or not a facility must submit a Form R for a listed chemical.
Take-Aways: Knowledge and understanding of TRI reporting thresholds.
Instructions: Read each question carefully. Using your knowledge of TRI reporting thresholds,
choose the best of the four answers.
1. A facility processes 21,000 pounds of formaldehyde each calendar year. It also imports and
then otherwise uses 9,000 pounds of formaldehyde annually. In addition, each year the
facility receives 15,000 pounds of solution that contains 34 percent formaldehyde by weight
and repackages it for distribution and sale. The firm is in SIC code 2834, ships over 600
pounds of formaldehyde in wastes off-site for disposal, and has 20 full-time employees.
Assuming these values remain the same over the next five years, under section 313 this firm:
a. Must report for each calendar year.
b. Does not have to report for each calendar year, because the thresholds are not met.
c. Will not be required to report for each calendar year because it does not manufacture
the chemical.
d. Is not required to report because it employs less than 25 full-time employees.
2. Fifteen thousand (15,000) pounds of a listed chemical is purchased in the current reporting
year and is used in a re-circulating cooling jacket. This quantity remains in use indefinitely
and no additional quantity is added in subsequent years. When are you required to consider
use of the mixture when determining thresholds?
a. Do not consider this type of material at all because it is a purchased compound.
b. The use of the compound must be considered for the current reporting year only.
c. .The use of the compound must be considered for the current reporting year and every
reporting year thereafter, until the mixture is replaced.
d. Consider only a part of the total amount the current reporting year, and a part every
reporting year thereafter, for the life of the mixture.
3. A facility produces a listed chemical as a result of its waste treatment operations, and
transfers the listed jchemical to an off-site location, where all of the section 313 chemical is
extracted and recycled. Which of the following is true?
a. The facility can exclude amounts of this listed chemical from threshold determinations
and release estimation because the source qualifies for the de minimis exemption.
-------
b. Coincidental production of a listed chemical is not covered under section 313,
therefore the facility need not consider this source of chemical production towards
thresholds and estimation of off-site transfers.
c. The facility need not consider this source for thresholds and estimation of off-site
transfer because all of the listed chemical is eventually recycled.
d. The facility must include all amounts of the listed chemical coincidentally produced in
threshold determinations.
4. Ten times per year, a facility receives chlorine in 1 ton cylinders. Half of the chlorine
mixture is transferred to a tank to make a bleaching mixture, where its concentration drops
below the de minimis level, which is then sold and distributed in commerce. One fourth of
the original mixture is used to treat the drinking water consumed by employees. The
remaining one fourth of the original mixture is used throughout the plant to clean process
equipment. Wastewater from the cleaning and bleach production operations is released with
chlorine levels well below the de minimis level. Which of the following is true?
a.
All uses of the chlorine are subject to section 313 reporting because the concentration
of the received mixture is well above the de minimis level and the threshold limit for
otherwise use has been met.
b. Only the use of chlorine for drinking water is exempt from section 313 reporting.
c.
d.
Only the drinking water and cleaning operations will be exempt from section 313
reporting due to the personal use and routine maintenance exemptions, respectively.
The drinking water and cleaning uses are covered under the personal use and routine
maintenance exemptions, respectively. The bleach production operation and the
wastewaters generated in conjunction with this operation are not exempt from section
313 reporting; however, the wastewaters from the cleaning operations are exempt.

EXERCISE #4
SECTION 313 CASE STUDY: COLUMBUS PLANT
Determining Reporting Thresholds
Facility Description and Chemical Usage
Darcy Corp. operates adjacent plants at a site in central Ohio: Plant 1 manufactures industrial
refrigeration units and Plant 2 manufactures molded plastic components for a variety of consumer
product applications. Plant 1 employs a staff of 1,600 employees. Plant 2 employs a staff of 800
full-time employees. The two plants operate independently.
Plant 1 uses Hi-Copper Brass Tubing (90.0 percent copper, 9.2 percent zinc) in the manufacture
of the air conditioners' components. The tubing is cut, bent into the appropriate shapes, and
incorporated into the air conditioning units. The purchasing department indicates that Plant 1
received 100,000 pounds of Hi-Copper Brass Tubing in the reporting year.
One of the refrigerants used by Plant 1 in its products is HCFC-22 (>98.0 percent pure). The
A100 series of refrigeration units use HCFC-22. In the reporting year, the facility produced 240
of these units, each of which contains 100 pounds of HCFC-22. Information provided by the
HCFC-22 supplier indicates that they delivered 20,000 pounds to the site's HCFC-22 storage tank
in the reporting year. Inventory records for the HCFC-22 storage tank indicated that the tank
contained 15,000 pounds at the beginning of the reporting year and 5,000 pounds at the end of
the reporting year.
Plant 1 paints certain refrigeration unit components using a paint that contains 10 weight percent
methyl-ethyl-ketone (MEK), a solvent. Paint booth logs indicate Plant 1 used 110,000 pounds of
this paint hi these painting operations.
Plant 2 uses a resin hi an injection molding process to make various plastic components.
Inventory records indicate that the facility used 300,000 pounds of the resin hi the reporting year.
The resin contains 4 weight percent of barium hydroxide and 1.5 percent elemental zinc.
Information obtained from the vendor indicates that during the curing of the resin, 1 pound of
ammonia is generated for each 100 pounds of resin used.
Inventory records indicate that 10,000 pounds of an adhesive that contains 12 weight percent
MEK was used as a solvent hi the adhesive application operations in the reporting year.
In the reporting year, a contractor painted the exterior and ulterior of all buildings on site. The
contractor reported that then* paint usage in the reporting year was 20,000 pounds, containing 5
weight percent MEK.
-------
In the reporting year, remediation of soil contaminated with 1,1,1-trichloroethane (TCA) and 2-
butanone was conducted with a soil vapor extraction (SVE) system. After being processed
through an activated carbon adsorption unit that is 99 percent efficient in capturing the organic
emissions, the exhaust from the SVE system is emitted to the air through a stack. The SVE
system is estimated to extract from the ground and send to the activated carbon adsorption unit
20 pounds of TCA and 10 pounds of 2-butanone every month. The carbon is replaced every 10
months and the spent carbon is sent to ACME for incineration.
Using the above information, complete the following tasks to determine which chemicals will
require you to prepare a Form R report.
1. Identify each listed chemical or chemical category manufactured, processed, and/or
otherwise used at the facility that you should evaluate for threshold determinations.
2. Use the attached threshold determination worksheets to determine which toxic chemicals
meet or exceed an applicable threshold for manufacture, process, or otherwise use.
3. Prepare Part II, Sections 1, 2 and 3 of Form R for each toxic chemical that exceeds an
applicable threshold.
Make any necessary assumptions and be prepared to identify the assumptions you have made and
the approach you used in completing this exercise.

TECHNIQUES FOR ESTIMATING
CHEMICAL QUANTITIES
Use of monitoring data
Mass balance calculation
Use of emission factors
Engineering calculations
JllliiiliiilliOillllilllliiillilllii
ANALYSIS OF MONITORING DATA
Product of measured concentrations, volumetric flow rates, and
density equals pounds of chemical released per year
Most commonly used for wastewater (Discharge monitoring
reports (DMRs))
Use Basis of Estimate code "M" if calculations based primarily
on monitoring data
-------
MASS BALANCE CALCULATION
Mass Balance is based on the law of conservation of mass
Input + Generation = Output + Amount Reacted + Accumulation
Most useful in simple situations
Use Basis of Estimate code "C"
• Example: Use of a mass balance to estimate fugitive air
emissions from storage containers and process equipment

USE OF EMISSION FACTORS
Chemical-specific values used to describe the quantity
released as a function of:
• Specific process used
• Specific equipment used
Available in Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors (AP-

SIGNIFICANT FIGURES
EPA recommends using two significant figures when reporting
releases and off-site transfers
Benefit of using 2 significant figures: more forgiving estimates
Example: Off-site transfer of 259,442 pounds
• What if 259,400 Ibs reported and later found an extra 10 Ibs?
• What if 260,000 Ibs reported and later found extra 5,000 Ibs?
If estimate imprecise, consider one significant figure or range
code:
• A= 1 -10 Ibs; B = 11 -499 Ibs; C = 500-999 Ibs

iiiiiiniii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiHiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ii iiiiiiiiHm
"NA" VS. "0"
Use "NA" (not applicable) when no possibility of Section 313
chemical being released to that media
• Example: Facility has no on-site landfill
Use "0" when no release to specific media occurs, but is
possible
• Example: Discharge to water is zero; however, release
possible if control equipment fails
• Must indicate a Basis of Estimate code (i.e., M, C, E, O)

EXERCISE #5
SECTION 313 CASE STUDY: COLUMBUS PLANT
Estimating Releases, Off-site Transfers, and Waste Treatment Efficiencies
Problem Statement
The threshold determination performed for MEK (included in the solution to Exercise #4)
identified the need for the Columbus Plant to file a Form R for MEK. Use the information below
and the solution to Exercise #4 to do the following:
(A) Prepare a flow diagram for MEK at the facility;
(B) Calculate the quantity of MEK released to the various environmental media; and
(C) Complete Part II, Sections 5, 6, and 7 of EPA Form R for MEK on the blank form
provided.
Make any necessary assumptions and be prepared to identify the assumptions you have made and
the approach you used in completing this exercise.
Facility Description and Operations
Darcy Corp. operates adjacent plants at a site in central Ohio: Plant 1 manufactures industrial
refrigeration units and Plant 2 manufactures molded plastic components for a variety of consumer
product applications. Plant 1 employs a staff of 1,600 employees. Plant 2 employs a staff of 800
full-time employees. The two plants operate independently.
Plant 1 paints certain refrigeration unit components. In the reporting year, Plant 1 used 11,000
pounds of MEK in these painting operations. The painting operations are performed in booths
with the air drawn through particulate filters and exhausted out a stack. Paint booth design
documents indicate that the capture efficiency of the booth's air collection system was estimated
to be 90 percent. Based on a review of the air emissions inventory and the engineering
assumptions made in order to develop that inventory, the EPCRA contact decided that it would
be more appropriate to assume that only 85 percent of the air emissions are stack emissions (to
account for fugitive air losses from the paint containers and from waste paint containers).
Industrial hygiene monitoring performed in the paint booths indicates that the concentration of
MEK in the air is in the range of 30 to 110 ppm.
Hazardous waste manifests and analyses indicate that 900 pounds of MEK in waste paint was
shipped to ACME Incineration (RCRA ID#OHD 123456789, 1 Apple Street, Akron, Smith
County, OH, 99999) for incineration and 100 pounds of MEK in paint-related waste (rags, empty
containers, and waste filters) were shipped to Bob's Landfill (RCRA ID# OHD000123456, 2 Bee
Street, Bloomington, Smith County, OH 99990) for disposal in a hazardous waste landfill.
-------
Plant 2 performs no solvent-based painting, but does use an adhesive containing MEK. The
adhesive is applied in an area with no air exhaust to a stack. Because of worker exposure
concerns, testing was performed in the reporting year that determined that 84 percent of the MEK
used in adhesive application operations resulted in air emissions. In the reporting year, 1,200
pounds of MEK was used in adhesive application operations. Hazardous waste manifests and
analyses indicate that 200 pounds of MEK in adhesive-related waste was shipped to ACME for
incineration. Empty waste adhesive containers are disposed of in the local sanitary landfill,
District Sanitary Landfill (4 Douglas Street, Dayton, Smith County, OH 99934).
In the reporting year, a contractor painted the exterior and interior of all non-process related
buildings on site. The contractor reported that their paint usage in the reporting year was,20,000
pounds, containing MEK at 5 weight percent. As a result of this operation, the contractor has
estimated that 60 pounds of MEK in paint-related waste was shipped to Bob's Landfill for
disposal.
In the reporting year, remediation of soil contaminated with 1,1,1 -trichloroethane (TCA) and 2-
butanone was conducted with a soil vapor extraction (SVE) system. After being processed
through a multi-stage activated carbon adsorption unit that is 99 percent efficient (according to
the manufacturer of the unit) in capturing the organic emissions, the exhaust from the SVE system
is emitted to the air through a stack. The SVE system is estimated to extract from the ground and
send to the activated carbon adsorption unit 20 pounds of TCA (at 100 ppm) and 10 pounds of 2-
butanone (at 50 ppm) every month. The carbon is replaced every 10 months and the spent carbon
is sent to ACME for incineration. The carbon was replaced in August of the prior reporting year,
in June of the reporting year, and will be replaced again in April of the following reporting year.
Process wastewater from the painting operations in Plant 1 is combined and processed through a
wastewater treatment facility. The wastewater treatment facility is a one-step neutralization tank,
where caustic is added to raise the pH above 6. After treatment, the wastewater is discharged to'
Scioto River. Monitoring performed for the discharge permit application indicated that the
following chemicals were present in the wastewater in the discharge from the treatment system:
TCA at 10 milligrams per liter (mg/1) and 2-butanone at 2 mg/1. Plant records indicate that a total
of 1,000,000 gallons of wastewater were discharged to the Scioto River in the reporting year.
The wastewater treatment system was modeled using EPA's SIMS program to determine the
fraction of these volatile components that are emitted to the air. This modeling indicated that
50% of 2-butanone entering the system is emitted as an air emission. Note that almost all of these
emissions (greater than 99 percent) occur from the open-top neutralization tank. Note: 1 mg/1 is
equivalent to 8.34 pounds per million gallons.

SOURCE REDUCTION AND OTHER WASTE
MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES
Important points regarding Sections 8.1 through 8.8
• Sum of the quantities in Sections 8.1 through 8.7 equals the
total quantity of the toxic chemical "entering any waste
stream (or otherwise released into the environment) prior to
recycling, treatment, or disposal." (PPA section 6607(b)(1»
• Quantities reported in Sections 8.1 through 8.7 are
exclusive of each other
• Sum of Sections 8.1 through 8.7 is mutually exclusive of the
quantity in Section 8.8
Exercise #6: Identifying Waste Streams
14
-------
PRODUCTION RATIO OR ACTIVITY INDEX
• Section 8.9: Production ratio or activity index
• A ratio of production or activity involving the toxic chemical
in the reporting year to production or activity in the
previous year
» Allows quantities of the toxic chemical reported in
Sections 8.1 through 8.7 in the current year to be
compared to quantities reported in the prior year
» Production ratio or activity index is determined by
dividing the level of production (or activity) in the current
year by the level of production (or activity) in the prior
year
» Select methodology least likely to be affected by
lotential source reduction activities
S
