Where this facility sits in the TRI record
Among the 3,421 Fabricated Metals facilities in this database, Triple Cities Metal Finishing Corp reports the 953rd-largest volume (20.7K lbs). Its reported volume is concentrated rather than spread: Nitrate compounds (water dissociable; reportable only when in aqueous solution) alone is 94.3% of the total.
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.
Triple Cities Metal Finishing Corp files annual Form R disclosures to the EPA Toxics Release Inventory under EPCRA Section 313, classified under NAICS 332813 (Fabricated Metals). Across 6 years of records spanning 2019–2024, the site has disclosed 20.7K lbs in cumulative toxic releases across 2 distinct chemicals. Largest chemicals by pounds: Nitrate compounds (water dissociable; reportable only when in aqueous solution); Nitric acid.
The dominant release pathway is off-site transfers at 22.2K lbs (94.3% of total volume), followed by air releases at 5.7%. Between 2019 and 2024, reported totals decreased by 45% - from 5.1K lbs to 2.8K lbs. Nearest other TRI reporters: Frito - Lay Inc.; Trivium Packaging USA Inc; Ems Technologies Services LLC; I3 Assembly LLC. Similar-scale peers outside New York: Ssab Wear Solutions Astralloy; Nxedge San Carlos; Perma-Pipe Inc.; Pamarco Global Graphics.
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 Triple Cities Metal Finishing Corp has filed with the EPA under federal community right-to-know requirements - open Frito - Lay Inc. for a different chemical mix before treating volume as risk.

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.
On this page the largest disclosed chemicals include Nitrate compounds (water dissociable; reportable only when in aqueous solution), Nitric acid; nearby reporters include Frito - Lay Inc.. "Total releases" includes air, water, land, and off-site transfers for disposal, aggregated across available reporting years. Quantities are self-reported estimates, not measured stack emissions.
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.
