Under the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990 (PPA), TRI collects information to track industry progress in reducing waste generation and moving towards safer waste management alternatives. Measures that facilities have taken to prevent pollution and reduce the amount of toxic chemicals entering the environment are shown in the table below. Although factors other than these reported practices contribute to year-to-year changes in releases, results are sorted by largest reduction in order to facilitate identification of pollution prevention successes.

The process itself is housed in a facility designed to contain any spill in concrete-constructed holding area, with equipment in place to recapture and reuse any and all unintended releases. Once treated, our product spends at least the minimum required time naturally releasing any excess chemical for further recapture. We regularly inspect our soil and water exceeding compliance with EPA requirements to ensure no measurable amount of the chemical has been released to the ground or water. To date, no results from any testing have come back outside compliance.
