TRI97 to Join TOXNET in Early July 1999; TRI87-94 & TRIFACTS to be Retired from NLM

TRI97 to Join TOXNET in Early July 1999; TRI87-94 & TRIFACTS to be Retired from NLM . NLM Technical Bulletin. 1999 May–Jun;(308):e1.

March 1999 [posted]

The EPA's TRI97 is scheduled to join the Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) series of files on TOXNET in early July. TRI97 covers data from the 1997 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, underground injection), as well as data related to source reduction and recycling activities.

At the same time, TRI87-94 and the TRIFACTS file will be removed due to budget constraints. TRI95 and TRI96 as well as TRI97 will still be available from TOXNET and on NLM's TOXNET's Web site (http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov). You can access all years of TRI data (TRI87-TRI97) on EPA's ENVIROFACT's Web site: http://www.epa.gov/enviro. To find out more about TRI on the EPA's Web site go to: http://www.epa.gov/tri.

For assistance searching the TRI files at the EPA's Web site, contact the EPA's TRI user support at (202) 260-1531 or send an e-mail to tri.us@epamail.epa.gov. For more information on searching the TRI files on NLM's TOXNET's Web site, contact NLM's TRI user support at (301) 496-6531, or send an e-mail to toxmail@toxnetmail.nlm.nih.gov or custserv@nlm.nih.gov.
