Data elements

Data elements determine the types of information that are reported to a PRTR (e.g. facility name, chemical name, release and transfer quantities, etc.). Data elements are listed in the left-hand box and include:

  • Core data: Facility identification (name, address); industry classification; chemical identification (CAS, chemical name); releases by environmental media (air, water and land); transfers.
  • Other data: Data elements that will meet your country’s specific need or that are useful for more complex analysis, such as data on waste management activities (e.g., quantities of waste treated or recycled) and pollution prevention activities.

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