What Does TRI Stand For?
TRI stands for Toxic Release Inventory
The Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) is a publicly accessible database maintained by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that tracks the release and management of certain hazardous substances by manufacturing facilities and other industrial sources. Established under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act, TRI provides crucial information to communities, policymakers, and researchers, enabling informed decisions regarding environmental and public health protection. The inventory includes data on the quantity of toxic chemicals released into the environment, as well as information on the methods of disposal and recycling.
