EPA Set to Release New TRI Data for 1998 - No Immediate Access through RTK NET

EPA has indicated it plans to release 1998 Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) data at 2:00 p.m. EDST on Thursday, May 11, 2000. For the first time in ten years, EPA has not provided the data in advance for posting on RTK NET. We do not know when we will be able to make 1998 TRI data available - with our easy-to-use search capabilities -- on RTK NET. We hope to obtain the data very soon and will make every effort to provide public access to the new data as soon as possible. EPA's Envirofacts system can be accessed at www.epa.gov/enviro (click on Toxics Release Inventory). We have expressed our concern in a May 10, 2000 letter to EPA Administrator Carol Browner, and if you would like to express your own opinions, click here.
