2009 TRI National Analysis Basic Plus Data Files

The downloadable data files on this webpage contain the RY 2009 TRI information originally made available in the fall of 2010. Please note that these files don't reflect any data revisions or withdrawals submitted by facilities since the fall of 2010. If you're looking for the most current 2009 TRI data, please see the TRI Basic Data Files or TRI Basic Plus Data Files webpages.

The TRI Basic Plus Data Files include seven file types (bundled into a zipped format for downloading) that collectively contain all the data submitted on the TRI Reporting Form A or Form R (except Schedule 1) Certification Statement by facilities.

The seven file types in TRI Basic Plus data files include the following:

  • 2a: Detailed Source Reduction Activities and Methods
  • 2b: Detailed On-Site Waste Treatment Methods and Efficiency
  • 3a: Details of Transfers Off-site
  • 3b: Details of Transfers to Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW)
  • 4:  Details of Facility Information
  • 5:  Additional Information on Source Reduction, Recycling and Pollution Control

NOTE: Quantities of dioxin and dioxin-like compounds are reported in grams; all other chemicals are reported in pounds.

The data contained in each of the files are comma delimited ASCII text. This format loads easily into many spreadsheets and database software applications.
