EF/ TRI Logo Column Name: OFF_SITE_POTW_AND_WASTEWATER


Description: The total wastewater treatment (excluding POTWs) - metals and metal compounds only disposal amount (in pounds) and total amount (in pounds) of the toxic chemical transferred from the facility to an off-site location or to Publicaly Owned Treatment Works (POTWs) during the calendar year (January 1 - December 31). Release amounts may be reported as specific numbers or as ranges (if the release is less than 1000 pounds). Letter codes are used to represent ranges: A = 1-10 pounds, B = 11-499 pound s, and C = 500-999 pounds. The letters are converted to numbers for storage in the TRIS database where '1' represents range 'A', '3' represents range 'B', and '4' represents range 'C'. The historical value '2' = 1-499 pounds. If a facility uses a range code, the amount reported in the database is the midpoint of the range.
