Council act: Revision to the "Recommendation on Establishing and Implementing Pollutant Release and Transfer Registers (PRTRs) |
A Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (PRTR) is a publicly accessible database or inventory of chemicals or pollutants released to air, water and soil and transferred off-site for treatment. It brings together information about which chemicals are being released, where, how much and by whom.
This series is divided between 3 types of publications:
|
