Who
Must Report
Release
and Pollution Prevention Report (environmental
release and materials accounting data)
Owners and operators of
manufacturing, and select non-manufacturing
companies, having the equivalent of 10 or
more full-time employees, and manufacturing,
importing, processing or otherwise using
toxic chemicals listed on the EPCRA Section
313 (TRI) list in quantities that exceed
specified thresholds, are required to annually
report their releases of these chemicals
for the previous year. Approximately 500
New Jersey companies are required to file
federal Toxic Chemical Release Inventory
(TRI) forms. TRI Form R requires the listing
of environmental releases, on-site waste
management and off-site transfers while
the simplified Form A Certification Statement
requires the listing of the chemical only.
These companies are also required to submit
to DEP the Release and Pollution Prevention
Report (RPPR) listing the quantities of
environmental release, on-site waste management,
waste transfer, and chemical throughput
information. Most of these facilities are
also subject to Pollution Prevention Planning
Requirements and, therefore, required to
report pollution prevention progress information
on the RPPR.
