3M Co-Columbia: Nickel-led volume
Among the 760 Computers and Electronic Products facilities in this database, 3M Co-Columbia reports the 191st-largest volume (4.9K lbs). Its reported volume is concentrated rather than spread: Nickel alone is 85.9% of the total. Carcinogen-classified chemicals make up 85.9% of the reported pounds, not just of the chemical count. Scale peers outside Missouri include Honeywell Aerospace - Minneapolis and Parker Hannifin Corp Chomerics Div.
Concentrated means ≥60% of 3M Co-Columbia's pounds in one chemical - here Nickel at 85.9%. Not a toxicity score.
