Pratt & Whitney: how the 400.9K lbs splits
400.9K lbs across all reported pathways
- Off-site Transfers 400.3K lbs 99.9%
- Air Releases 475 lbs 0.1%
- Water Discharges 123 lbs <0.1%
Pratt & Whitney's 400.9K lbs Form-R total is OFFSITE - off-site transfers is 99.9% of the bar. Next segment: air releases at 0.1%. Leading chemical by pounds: Nitrate compounds (water dissociable; reportable only when in aqueous solution).
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.
