If you are new to preparing TRI reports, or if your facility is reporting for the first time, you should consider attending a live full-day workshop or taking both the the introductory and advanced Web -based courses. To determine which course is best suited for you, the following topics will be discussed in each:
Web-based Basic Concepts
You will need Adobe Reader to view some of the files on this page. See EPA's PDF page to learn more.
This course will help you determine:
- if your facility is covered by EPCRA Section 313 (the Toxics Release Inventory),
- if your facility is covered, for which chemicals your facility must submit a TRI report
- and, how to report to TRI.
You will also learn about:
- Information and examples on making the release and other waste management calculations and estimates for the Form R.
- When the Form A Certification statement can be used instead of the Form R.
- TRI reporting exemptions (particular uses of TRI chemicals that do not have to be included in TRI reporting).
- General TRI program and process information.
- How to use the TRI Made Easy (TRI-ME) software, TRI-MEweb online tool, and the CDX electronic submission process. View a brief online TRI-MEweb demonstration.
Course times vary by instructor. Please see below for start times and approximate end times.
