database that contains information on toxic chemical releases and
other waste management activities reported annually by certain covered
industry groups as well as federal facilities. This inventory was
established under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know
Act of 1986 (EPCRA) and expanded by the Pollution Prevention Act of
1990.
