As TRI reporting season approaches it is important to note a significant change for the 2020 reporting year. The major TRI change this year is the addition of PFAS to the TRI list. The EPA has added 172 polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) to the Toxic Release Inventory chemical list as of June 2020. These chemicals must be reported for your TRI report that is coming up for the 2020 reporting year. This follows Section 7321 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The deadline for reporting these chemicals is July 1^st. If your industry manufactures, processes or uses any listed PFAS you must remember to include these chemicals in your TRI report this year if you exceed the reporting threshold.
