EPA Proposes Adding Natural Gas Processing Facilities to List of Industrial Sectors Covered by the Toxics Release Inventory EPA is proposing to add natural gas processing facilities to the scope of the industrial sectors covered by the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI). Natural gas processing facilities that primarily recover sulfur from natural gas are already an industrial sector covered by TRI. This action proposes to expand coverage to all natural gas processing facilities. These facilities receive natural gas and then refine this gas. Facilities primarily engaged in natural gas extraction (e.g., exploration, fracking, etc.) are not included in this proposal. Adding natural gas processing facilities to the TRI would meaningfully increase the information available to the public on releases and other waste management of listed chemicals from the natural gas processing sector and further the purposes of section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act.
