Abstract: TRI Guidance-- annual update plus other rule-related changes- EPA is requesting a non-substantive change to update the Reporting Forms and Instructions document for Reporting Year (RY) 2024. Each year, EPA updates this document to reflect the new reporting year and to incorporate various improvements to the document. Alongside updating references from RY 2023 to RY 2024 and clarifying guidance (e.g., incorporating Q&A and parent company naming conventions into the RFI), this document incorporates changes implemented via the recent final rules titled Changes to Reporting Requirements for Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances and to Supplier Notifications for Chemicals of Special Concern; Community Right-to-Know Toxic Chemical Release Reporting and Addition of Diisononyl Phthalate Category; Community Right-to-Know Toxic Chemical Release Reporting, This change is focused on updating the Reporting Forms and Instructions (RFI) to ensure that facilities have the most-up-to-date information to support their reporting for RY 2024 (reporting due by July 1, 2025).
