PRTR initiation - Providing compliance assistance

Providing compliance assistance to regulated entities involves providing training and support to help facilities calculate emissions and report accurate PRTR data on schedule. Types of compliance assistance are listed in the left-hand box and include:

  • Reporting Forms and Instructions: Developing guidance for facilities regarding how to report to the PRTR.
  • Helpline/Email Support: Providing a mechanism for facilities to ask questions and obtain guidance about reporting to the PRTR.
  • Release Estimation Techniques: Providing guidance on how release and transfer quantities should be estimated.
  • Focused Guidance Documents: Providing guidance on PRTR reporting related to specific topics (e.g., guidance for a chemical or industry sector).
  • Calculation Tools: Developing automated tools that estimate emissions based on activity and other data provided by the facility.

For a cost-effective management scheme, you may wish to implement the next sub-element (Reporting Forms and Instructions) or choose another element from the Management scheme elements list.
