Section 313<br />
The EPA has established an inventory <strong>of</strong> routine toxic<br />
chemicals which require emissions reporting. These reporting<br />
requirements are known as Form R. Facilities subject to<br />
Section 313 are required to submit a Toxic Chemical Release<br />
Inventory Form for specified chemicals. Form R<br />
notifies public and governmental agencies about routine<br />
releases (releases that occur as a result <strong>of</strong> daily production<br />
use). Form R applies to facilities <strong>of</strong> ten or more employees<br />
with Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes 20<br />
through 39, and that manufacture, process or otherwise use<br />
a toxic chemical in excess <strong>of</strong> specified threshold quantities.<br />
Form R is completed on an annual basis and is submitted by<br />
July 1.<br />
