The last element indicating when a release is reportable is whether an amount of the hazardous substance equaling or exceeding the reportable quantity (RQ) is released over a 24-hour period. This time frame refers to the time period over which a release is to be measured; it does not mean that one has 24 hours in which to report the release.
