Technical Report · Mon Mar 01 04:00:00 EST 1993

OSTI ID:10140224

The Office of Environmental Guidance, RCRA/CERCLA Division (EH-231) has prepared interim guidance on the Department of Energy`s participation in the Environmental Protection Agency`s 33/50 pollution prevention program and corresponding Toxic Chemical Release Inventory (TRI) reporting to be performed across the DOE complex. Pursuant to Departmental policy, DOE is committed to the inclusion of cost-effective waste minimization and pollution prevention in all of its activities. Entering into EPA`s 33/50 program not only conforms to this policy but sets a precedent, as DOE will be the first Federal agency to participate in this program. This interim guidance provides detailed information on DOE-specific issues and is to supplement EPA`s instructions on the TRI Form R Report. The guidance is geared primarily towards those responsible for the comprehensive DOE TRI Form R Reports due July 1, 1994. This includes DOE operating contractor personnel who will be preparing TRI information on their activities, and the DOE Site and/or Field Office personnel who will be compiling the DOE TRI reports for submission to EPA, applicable State agencies, and EH-1.
