Summary
Reporting is required to provide information to the public on releases and other waste management of EPCRA Section 313 chemicals in their communities and to provide EPA with release and other waste management information to assist the agency in determining the need for future regulations. Facilities reporting to the Toxic Chemical Release Inventory (TRI) must report the quantities of routine and accidental releases, and releases resulting from catastrophic or other one-time events of EPCRA Section 313 chemicals, as well as the maximum amount of the EPCRA Section 313 chemical onsite during the calendar year and the amount contained in wastes managed onsite or transferred off-site.
EPCRA Section 313 requires that reports be filed by owners and operators of facilities that meet all of the following criteria:
- The facility has 10 or more full-time employee equivalents (i.e., a total of 20,000 hours or greater; see 40 CFR 372.3);
- The facility is included in a North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code listed in Table I of the instructions; and
- The facility manufactures (defined to include importing), processes, or otherwise uses any EPCRA Section 313 chemical in quantities greater than the established threshold in the course of a calendar year. Reporting thresholds are listed in Section B.4 of the instructions.
In 1993, Executive Order 12856 extended these reporting requirements to federal facilities, regardless of their Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) or NAICS code. Subsequent Executive Orders have not changed this requirement.
