Where this facility sits in the TRI record
Among the 823 Wood Products facilities in this database, Stella-Jones Corp reports the 227th-largest volume (17.7K lbs). Its reported volume is concentrated rather than spread: Creosote alone is 99.8% of the total. Carcinogen-classified chemicals make up more than 99.9% of the reported pounds, not just of the chemical count.
Placement is computed from reported TRI pounds in this database. Thresholds are fixed across every facility page: concentrated ≥60% of volume in one chemical, county-dominant ≥25% of the county total, carcinogen-heavy ≥50% of pounds. Share-based statements are shown only for sites reporting at least 1,000 lbs, because a share of a very small total is not a meaningful signal. Reported pounds are self-reported estimates and do not measure toxicity or health risk.
Stella-Jones Corp files annual Form R disclosures to the EPA Toxics Release Inventory under EPCRA Section 313, classified under NAICS 321114 (Wood Products). Across 5 years of records spanning 2019–2023, the site has disclosed 17.7K lbs in cumulative toxic releases across 4 distinct chemicals, 2 of which (50%) carry a carcinogenic classification. Largest chemicals by pounds: Creosote; Polycyclic aromatic compounds; Benzo[g,h,i]perylene; Copper compounds.
The dominant release pathway is air releases at 17.7K lbs (100.0% of total volume), followed by land disposal at 0.0%. Between 2019 and 2023, reported totals decreased by 8% - from 3.6K lbs to 3.4K lbs. The facility is operated under parent company Stella-Jones US Holding Corp alongside Stella-Jones Corp; Arbor Preservative Systems LLC; Stella-Jones Corp; Stella-Jones Corp. Nearest other TRI reporters: Lhoist Na of Alabama Llc-Montevallo Plant; Sherman Industries - Montevallo Plant; Mississippi Lime Co - Calera Plant; Argos Cement LLC - Roberta Plant. Similar-scale peers outside Alabama: Stella-Jones Corp; E a Allen Lumber Co; Acme Wood Preserving Inc; Koppers Inc (guthrie).
TRI Form R values are self-reported estimates, not measured stack emissions, and treat every pound of reported chemical equally regardless of toxicity. Inclusion in the TRI database does not establish a health risk to nearby residents; it documents the annual reporting record that Stella-Jones Corp has filed with the EPA under federal community right-to-know requirements - open Lhoist Na of Alabama Llc-Montevallo Plant for a different chemical mix before treating volume as risk.

About TRI Data
Data as of 2023 reporting year. Source: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Toxic Release Inventory.
Data comes from the EPA Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) program. Facilities that manufacture, process, or otherwise use listed toxic chemicals above threshold amounts are required to report annually to the EPA.
On this page the largest disclosed chemicals include Creosote, Polycyclic aromatic compounds, Benzo[g,h,i]perylene, Copper compounds; nearby reporters include Lhoist Na of Alabama Llc-Montevallo Plant. "Total releases" includes air, water, land, and off-site transfers for disposal, aggregated across available reporting years. Quantities are self-reported estimates, not measured stack emissions.
PlainEnviro presents this data without advocacy framing. The presence of a facility in the TRI database does not by itself indicate a health risk. For site-specific health questions, consult your local environmental or health agency.
