Toxics Release Inventory: It's On-Line! It's Easy! It's Your Right to Know!
V In 2001, the paper industry released over 195 million pounds of toxic chemicals to the
environment. What five industries released more than the paper industry?
V What industry releases the most mercury, dioxin, or lead? These metals and chemicals are
toxic, persistent in the environment, and bioaccumulate in food chains, and thus pose risks to
human health and the ecosystems.
V What industry releases the most toxic chemicals in your state?
You can quickly and easily find answers to these questions
on the web with a made-to-order TRI INDUSTRY REPORT!
This is what your TRI INDUSTRY REPORT will look like...

To create your own TRI INDUSTRY REPORT, follow these easy steps:
1. Go to EPA's TRI Explorer at www.epa.gov/triexplorer.
Under "Reports" on the left-hand side of the screen, select "Industry."
2.
3.
If you click on "Generate Report," you will receive a list of all industry sectors regulated by TRI and
their total TRI-reported chemical releases to air, land, surface water, underground injection wells, total
disposal and releases on-site at the facilities, and total disposal and releases off-site.
Your TRI INDUSTRY REPORT will automatically be sorted by industry sector. You can quickly and easily
sort this list by air emissions, surface water discharges, underground injection, total disposal and
releases on-site, and total disposal and releases off-site by clicking on the little arrows below each
column heading.
Customize your TRI INDUSTRY REPORT...
V Wondering about industries in your state or county? Make your selection under "Geographic
Location" and click on "Generate Report."
V What industries released the most persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic (PBT) chemicals,
OSHA carcinogens, or hazardous air pollutants (HAPS)? You can compare industries simply by
clicking on the arrow under "Chemical Released." Scroll down and click on "Select a chemical
group." Make your selection, click on "Generate Report" and get your list!
V Simplify your TRI INDUSTRY REPORT for easy printing by generating individual reports for "Total On-
site Disposal or Other Releases" and "Total Off-site Disposal or Other Releases."
What you can do. TAKE ACTION!
You are a full partner in environmental protection.
V Find out what chemicals are released by these industries with a TRI CHEMICAL REPORT.
V Find out which facilities are in each of these industry sectors with a TRI FACILITY REPORT.
V Take local action! Raise your concerns with trade associations, CEOs, and industrial managers.
Encourage these industries to improve chemical management and pollution prevention.

Toxics Release Inventory: It's On-Line! It's Easy! It's Your Right to Know!
With Envirofact's EZ Query, you can generate TRI reports for specific industries based on their full
4-digit Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code. This allows you to sort and review TRI data for
specific types of industries, such as ice cream manufacturers (SIC 2024), petroleum refiners (SIC
2911), plastic bottle manufacturers (SIC 3085), tire manufacturers (SIC 3011) and much, much more!
To Create your Own ADVANCED INDUSTRY REPORT, follow these easy steps:
1. Go to EPA's Envirofacts Warehouse at www.epa.gov/enviro.
From the blue sidebar on the left-hand side, click on "Queries, Maps, and Reports."
2.
3.
4.
Under Queries, you'll see the heading "Toxics Release Inventory" followed by several query options.
Select "TRI EZ" to create this custom report.
Scroll down the page and begin the four step process to create your own customized TRI EZ query.
Begin with Step 1: Start by selecting one view to be the focus of your query. For this customized EZ
query, click on "Releases - Brief" for a summary of release information from a facility.
What is a SIC Code?
The Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code is a 4-digit numberthat is assigned to a facility based on the type
of operations conducted. For example, if a facility makes chocolate bars, it is assigned SIC 2066 Chocolate and
Cocoa Products. The first 2 digits of the SIC code represent the industry major group. For example, food
manufacturing is SIC 20, chemical manufacturing is SIC 28, and metal mining is SIC 10. Using SIC codes you can
easily compare environmental data for similar types of operations. You can examine and compare TRI data for
specific industries with the 4-digit SIC code or for industry major groups with the 2-digit SIC code.
Trying to find a specific 4-digit SIC code? You can review and search the SIC code manual on the Internet.
Visit the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) web page atwww.osha.gov/oshstats/sicser.html.

Note: Many facilities report under multiple SIC codes to reflect the variety of industrial operations. To
retrieve the records for all facilities reporting under a SIC code, including those that reported under
multiple SIC codes, use the operator definition of "Containing" not "Equal to." If you use the operator
definition of "Equal to" for the SIC Code search, you will only retrieve records from facilities that
reported under a single SIC code.
You can easily organize the output by entering numbers in the column "Display Order." You can also
quickly and easily sort the data by entering numbers in the column "Sort Column." This is optional.
Now you are finally ready to submit your query, click the "Search Database" button at the bottom of
the page.
