National Aeronautics & Space Administration ranks #240 of 4,988 slug-merged TRI parents by disclosed release pounds, mid-to-upper among parents, not a top-25 volume name. National Aeronautics & Space Administration files across 2 states, a regional parent portfolio rather than a single-state discloser. Releases are facility-concentrated: Nasa Marshall Space Flight Center accounts for most of National Aeronautics & Space Administration's disclosed pounds, so peer comparisons should weight that site, not an even portfolio average.
Parent aggregation for National Aeronautics & Space Administration follows facility-reported names. Compare the named neighbors (Waste Management Inc; Koch Inc.) before treating rank as a hazard score; TRI stays self-reported and unweighted by toxicity.
