42 U.S.C. § 13107 — EPA report

**(a) Biennial reports** The Administrator shall provide Congress with a report within eighteen months after November 5, 1990, and biennially thereafter, containing a detailed description of the actions taken to implement the strategy to promote source reduction developed under section 13103(b) 11 See References in Text note below. of this title and of the results of such actions. The report shall include an assessment of the effectiveness of the clearinghouse and grant program established under this chapter in promoting the goals of the strategy, and shall evaluate data gaps and data duplication with respect to data collected under Federal environmental statutes. **(b) Subsequent reports** Each biennial report submitted under subsection (a) after the first report shall contain each of the following: (1) An analysis of the data collected under [section 13106 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section13106&num=0&edition=prelim) on an industry-by-industry basis for not less than five SIC codes or other categories as the Administrator deems appropriate. The analysis shall begin with those SIC codes or other categories of facilities which generate the largest quantities of toxic chemical waste. The analysis shall include an evaluation of trends in source reduction by industry, firm size, production, or other useful means. Each such subsequent report shall cover five SIC codes or other categories which were not covered in a prior report until all SIC codes or other categories have been covered. (2) An analysis of the usefulness and validity of the data collected under [section 13106 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section13106&num=0&edition=prelim) for measuring trends in

(8) An evaluation of methods of coordinating, streamlining, and improving public access to data collected under Federal environmental statutes. (9) An evaluation of data gaps and data duplication with respect to data collected under Federal environmental statutes.

42 U.S.C. § 13106 — Source reduction and recycling data collection

**(a) Reporting requirements** Each owner or operator of a facility required to file an annual toxic chemical release form under [section 11023 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section11023&num=0&edition=prelim) for any toxic chemical shall include with each such annual filing a toxic chemical source reduction and recycling report for the preceeding 11 So in original. Probably should be “preceding”. calendar year. The toxic chemical source reduction and recycling report shall cover each toxic chemical required to be reported in the annual toxic chemical release form filed by the owner or operator under [section 11023(c) of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section11023/c&num=0&edition=prelim). This section shall take effect with the annual report filed under [section 11023 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section11023&num=0&edition=prelim) for the first full calendar year beginning after November 5, 1990. **(b) Items included in report** The toxic chemical source reduction and recycling report required under subsection (a) shall set forth each of the following on a facility-by-facility basis for each toxic chemical: (1) The quantity of the chemical entering any waste stream (or otherwise released into the environment) prior to recycling, treatment, or disposal during the calendar year for which the report is filed and the percentage change from the previous year. The quantity reported shall not include any amount reported under paragraph (7). When actual measurements of the quantity of a toxic chemical entering the waste streams are not readily available, reasonable estimates should be made based on best engineering judgm

(4) The amount expected to be reported under paragraph 2 (1) and (2) for the two cal- endar years immediately following the cal- endar year for which the report is filed. Such amount shall be expressed as a percentage change from the amount reported in para- graphs (1) and (2). (5) A ratio of production in the reporting year to production in the previous year. The ratio should be calculated to most closely re- flect all activities involving the toxic chem- ical. In specific industrial classifications sub- ject to this section, where a feedstock or some variable other than production is the primary influence on waste characteristics or volumes, the report may provide an index based on that primary variable for each toxic chemical. The Administrator is encouraged to develop pro- duction indexes to accommodate individual in- dustries for use on a voluntary basis. (6) The techniques which were used to iden- tify source reduction opportunities. Tech- niques listed should include, but are not lim- ited to, employee recommendations, external and internal audits, participative team man- agement, and material balance audits. Each type of source reduction listed under para- graph (3) should be associated with the tech- niques or multiples of techniques used to iden- tify the source reduction technique. (7) The amount of any toxic chemical re- leased into the environment which resulted from a catastrophic event, remedial action, or other one-time event, and is not associated with production proc
