On June 18, 1998, TRI96 joined TRI87-95 to become the tenth file in the Toxic Chemical Release Inventory (TRI) series of files on TOXNET. TRI96 covers data from the 1996 Reporting Year. As mandated by the Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act (EPCRA), EPA collects data from facilities around the country on estimated releases of certain chemicals to the environment (air, water, land, underground injection), as well as data related to source reduction and recycling activities.
Starting with the 1996 Reporting Year, a new subfield, Underground Injection Well Class Code (UINJC), was added which corresponds to the type of well disposal used for the toxic chemical at the facility. The three possible values are UI0 underground injection on-site to all wells for TRI87-95, UI1- underground injection on-site to class I wells, and UI2 underground injection on-site to class II-V wells. Two new codes, D75 RCRA Subtitle C landfills and D76 other landfills, were added to the existing list of possible Land Disposal Method values (LANDM).
For TRI96, EPA has delisted two chemicals, diethyl phthalate and bis(2-ethylhexyl) adipate, also known as di-(2-ethylhexyl) adipate. Also, non-aerosol forms of hydrochloric acid are no longer reported in TRI96.
All updates to TRI backfiles have been completed and are now available online. For further information on TRI96 or TOXNET, please contact the TRI Representative at (301) 496-6531.
