WASHINGTON - Today at 2:00 p.m. EDT, the E.P.A. (EPA) will hold a press call and webinar to discuss the 2014 Toxics Release Inventory National Analysis. TRI data are submitted annually to EPA, states, and tribes by facilities in industry sectors such as manufacturing, metal mining, electric utilities, and commercial hazardous waste. Under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA), facilities must report their toxic chemical delivers for the prior year to E.P.A. by July one of each year. Most of these delivers are subject to a variety of regulatory requirements designed to limit human and environmental harm. The TRI National Analysis is an yearly report that displays EPA's analysis and interpretation of the most recent TRI data.
