Column Name: TRANSFER_RANGE_CODE
Description: Code that corresponds to the amount of toxic chemical released annually by the reporting facility, reported as a range for releases less than 1,000 pounds. When a facility uses a range code, the amount reported to TRI is the midpoint of the range. On Form R, letter codes are used to represent ranges: A = 1-10 pounds, B = 11-499 pounds, 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.
