Book Description
EPCRA CFRs Made Easy explains the complex, form-intensive reporting requirements of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA, also known as SARA Title III) and guides you through the EPCRA compliance process detailed in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFRs). Written for organizations and facilities that store chemicals on-site, this reference contains EPCRA and EPCRA-related material from other chemical safety statutes, programs, and agencies, including CFR Titles 29 and 40, the Department of Transportation, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the National Response System, and the 2001 TRI Lead Rule. You'll examine the four major provisions of EPCRA's requirements and their relevant programs. You'll also find numerous sample documents, a sample Form R--the Toxic Chemical Release Inventory Reporting Form, and a sample EPCRA audit checklist. The author also discusses covered substances and facilities, emergency release notification, Tier I and Tier II Chemical Inventory Forms, EPCRA Section 313 reporting requirements, EPCRA trade secrecy, and civil actions and penalties. EPCRA CFRs Made Easy contains a list of 357 extremely hazardous substances, an index by subject area, and directories of EPA regional offices and of State Emergency Response Commission (SERC) and Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) offices and websites.

Book Description
Department of Defense (DoD) installations have reporting responsibilities under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA), as well as a mandate to reduce reportable releases by the end of 1999. While DoD has been implementing approaches to meet EPCRA's complex threshold and reporting requirements, EPA has made significant changes to the regulated chemicals, thresholds, and guidance. This paper summarizes EPCRA developments through June 1998 for their impact on DoD compliance, with particular focus on the expanded thresholds and recent guidance, including: Potential impacts of EPA's proposed revisions to Section 311 and 312 reporting for gasoline and diesel fuel. Effects of EPA's expanded definition for the EPCRA Section 313 "Otherwise Use" threshold. EPA's recent guidance, including the revised Section 313 Question & Answer document, and guidance developed for the newly added industries. New interpretations and policies for reporting sulfuric acid aerosols, ammonia in wastewater treatment plants, and nitrate compounds. Recent developments in other environmental programs, such as the Clean Air Act Amendment Risk Management Plan requirements, which overlap with EPCRA. Continued efforts to expand Section 313 reporting to include toxic chemical use information. The paper concludes with considerations for the importance of managing on-going EPCRA developments and maintaining compliance.
