The downloadable data files on this webpage contain the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) data for calendar year 2008, originally made available in September 2009. Please note that these files don't reflect any data revisions or withdrawals submitted by facilities since September 2009. If you're looking for the most current 2008 TRI data, please see the TRI Basic Data Files or TRI Basic Plus Data Files webpages.

The TRI Basic Plus data files consist of .zip files for each U.S. state and territory, plus .zip files for national data and federal facility data. Collectively, they contain all the data submitted by facilities on the TRI Reporting Form A and Form R (except Schedule 1) for a specific year. For detailed descriptions of the contents in these files, see Guidance for Using Historical TRI "Basic Plus" Data Files.

TRI Federal Facility Data

The TRI Federal Facility Files are seven tab-delimited text files zipped into one .exe file. Collectively, these files contain all of the 2008 TRI data reported by federally owned facilities. Some federal government facilities are operated by contractors; these are known as Government Owned, Contractor Operated (GOCO) facilities. In cases where both the governmental entity and the GOCO contractor have both reported data for a facility, the data submitted by the federal entity is used and appears in the Federal Facility File set. In cases where only the GOCO contractor has reported, the GOCO contractor data appear in the file.

TRI State Data

In the table below are links to .exe files for each state and territory. Within these .exe files are seven tab-delimited text files that collectively contain all of the 2008 TRI data for that state or territory.
