EPCRA 312 annual Tier II reporting supports emergency planning efforts at the state and local levels and provides the public and local governments with information concerning potential chemical hazards present in their communities. The facility is located in an area of significant EJ concerns. Snider Energy agreed to pay a penalty of $5,000.
