Title: Toxics Release Inventory Expansion Rule Phase 3 (TRI-P3)

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1839· OSTI ID:1839

The ORR [East Tennessee Technology Park (ETTP), Y-12 Plant, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL)] is considered a single facility for reporting by the DOE prime contractors. The processing, manufacturing, or "otherwise use" Section313 chemicals are combined to determine TRI reportability. Such is the case with lead metal, which is one of two chemicals for which reportin~ forms were prepared in this pilot study (Task 2;1. The lead shop at ORNL exceeded the reporting threshold, causing a lead activity at a Y-1 2 machine shop and lead in waste at ETTP to be reportable. TRI-P3 report preparation time for lead totaled 36.5 hours. The second chemical investigated and reported (chromium) also required nearly a man-week for report preparation and documentation by experienced TRI personnel. The ORR TRI report typically includes about six chemicals, so an estimate of the TRI-P3 incremental reporting burden for ORR would be six weeks for experienced personnel axI d two/three man-months for first-time ORR preparers.
