Of the chemicals reported, 1 is classified as carcinogen, representing 100% of the facility's chemical profile. The facility operates in the Nonmetallic Mineral Product sector. The primary release pathway is air releases, accounting for 90% of total releases. All release data shown below is self-reported to the EPA under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) Section 313.
Where this facility sits in the TRI record
Among the 3,265 Nonmetallic Mineral Product facilities in this database, Cambria Plant reports the 131st-largest volume, placing it in the top 4% of its sector. This one site accounts for 36.6% of every pound reported in Le Sueur. Its reported volume is concentrated rather than spread: Styrene alone is 100% of the total. Carcinogen-classified chemicals make up 100% 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.
Cambria Plant files annual Form R disclosures to the EPA Toxics Release Inventory under EPCRA Section 313, classified under NAICS 327991 (Nonmetallic Mineral Product). Across 5 years of records spanning 2019–2023, the site has disclosed 188.5K lbs in cumulative toxic releases across 1 distinct chemical, 1 of which (100%) carry a carcinogenic classification.
The dominant release pathway is air releases at 170.2K lbs (90.3% of total volume), followed by off-site transfers at 9.7%. Between 2019 and 2023, reported totals decreased by 26% - from 37.4K lbs to 27.7K lbs. The facility is operated under parent company Cambria Co LLC.
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 Cambria Plant has filed with the EPA under federal community right-to-know requirements.

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.
Release quantities are self-reported by the facility and may represent estimates rather than exact measurements. "Total releases" includes releases to air, water, land, and off-site transfers for disposal. Quantities shown here are aggregated across all available reporting years.
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.
