If your facility is in a toxic release inventory (TRI) covered industry sector, you employ ten or more full-time equivalent employees, and you manufacture, process, or otherwise use a TRI-listed chemical in quantities above threshold levels in a given year, you are required to submit TRI Form R’s using TRI-MEweb, EPA's online TRI reporting application. HSG has extensive experience in completing Form R’s, and will ensure that your reporting efforts are timely and accurate.

Submission of Tier II forms is required under Section 312 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986 (EPCRA). The purpose of this form is to provide State, local officials, and the public with specific information on potential hazards. This includes the locations, as well as the amount, of hazardous chemicals present at your facility during the previous calendar year. Section 312(a) of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) requires the owner or operator of facilities subject to Section 311 of EPCRA to submit an emergency and hazardous chemical inventory form by March 1 of each calendar year to the State Emergency Response Commission (SERC), the Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC), and the local fire department. For more information, visit the EPA’s website at https://www.epa.gov/epcra. If your facility needs assistance with its Tier II reporting, please call HSG today. Our experienced staff can help you maintain compliance with these requirements.

The EPA’s Risk Management Plan (RMP) Rule implements Section 112(r) of the 1990 Clean Air Act amendments. Facilities holding more than a threshold quantity of a regulated substance in a process are required to comply with the RMP regulations. The RMP Rule requires that facilities using extremely hazardous substances develop a Risk Management Plan. These plans must be revised and resubmitted to EPA every five years. They must identify the potential effects of a chemical accident, identify steps the facility is taking to prevent an accident, and explain emergency response procedures that will be taken should an accident occur. For more information, see https://www.epa.gov/rmp/risk-management-plan-rmp-rule-overview. HSG has extensive experience in developing Risk Management Plans. Contact us today and we will ensure that your facility is in compliance.
