The National Library of Medicine® TOXMAP now includes the 2008 Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) data.
Other TOXMAP updates include:
- the ability to view search results in Google Maps and Google Earth
- a new look for the TOXMAP FAQ
TOXMAP maps the TRI chemicals reported to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as required by the Emergency Planning and Community Right to Know Act.
A complete list of TRI chemicals required to be reported to the EPA can be found at //www.epa.gov/tri/trichemicals/index.htm
