American Science & Engineering: how the 17 lbs splits
17 lbs across all reported pathways
- Off-site Transfers 17 lbs 100.0%
American Science & Engineering's 17 lbs Form-R total is OFFSITE - off-site transfers is 100.0% of the bar. Off-site transfers stay separate from air, water, and land releases. Leading chemical by pounds: Lead compounds.
TRACE volume OFFSITE pathway CARC-MID
American Science & Engineering is an EPA Toxics Release Inventory reporter in Billerica, MA, in the computers and electronic products sector. It reported 17 lbs of releases across 2 chemicals, summed over every year it filed. That ranks 18,116 of 25,986 TRI facilities nationwide by cumulative reported pounds, counting each facility over however many years it has filed. In Massachusetts's 373 reporting TRI sites, pounds #1 is not chemical-count #1. American Science & Engineering is pounds #316 and chemical-count #232 at 17 lbs. Solutia Inc leads reported pounds (2.5M lbs) at 9 chemicals (chemical-count #10). Astro Chemicals Inc leads chemical count at 17 chemicals (5.9K lbs, pounds #154).
