Continental Global Material Handling: how the 117.1K lbs splits

117.1K lbs across all reported pathways

  • Air Releases 107.0K lbs 91.4%
  • Off-site Transfers 10.0K lbs 8.6%
  • Water Discharges 11 lbs <0.1%
  • Land Disposal 0 lbs <0.1%

Continental Global Material Handling's 117.1K lbs Form-R total is AIR - air releases is 91.4% of the bar. Next segment: off-site transfers at 8.6%. Leading chemical by pounds: Xylene (mixed isomers).

Carcinogen-classified pounds vs other reported pounds

Same cumulative TRI total as above, split by EPA/IARC carcinogen classification on each chemical: pounds share, not chemical count. Classification is not a site health-risk score.
