Nexpera - Red Lion Plant: how the 34.7K lbs splits

34.7K lbs across all reported pathways

  • Air Releases 34.7K lbs 100.0%

Nexpera - Red Lion Plant's 34.7K lbs Form-R total is AIR - air releases is 100.0% of the bar. Off-site transfers stay separate from air, water, and land releases. Leading chemical by pounds: Sulfuric acid (acid aerosols including mists, vapors, gas, fog, and other airborne forms of any particle size).

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.
