Industry Sectors

This chart shows the industry sectors with the most TRI-reporting facilities in Region 9.

 

Note: Percentages do not sum to 100% due to rounding

In 2020:

  • 1,606 facilities in Region 9 reported to TRI, slightly fewer than reported for 2019. The sectors with the most facilities were the nonmetallic mineral products (including cement manufacturing) and chemical manufacturing sectors.
  • While the figure shows the sectors with the most TRI facilities in the region, the most TRI releases in Region 9 were from the metal mining sector, which accounted for 86% of the region’s releases for 2020. After metal mining, the primary metals (including smelting), hazardous waste management, and petroleum products manufacturing sectors reported the largest releases. Note that relatively few facilities in the metal mining, primary metals, and hazardous waste management sectors reported to TRI in this region and those sectors are included in “All Other Sectors” in the pie chart above.
