Description:
This data set shows the locations of more than 35,000 industrial facilities in North America that reported releases and (or) transfers of pollutants in 2005.  The data were assembled from the three North American countries’ Pollutant Release and Transfer Registers (PRTRs): the National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI) in Canada, the Registro de Emisiones y Transferencias de Contaminantes (RETC) in Mexico, and the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) in the United States.   
 
      Additional information on North American pollutant releases and transfers is available through the Commission for Environmental Cooperation’s Taking Stock web site at http://www.cec.org/takingstock/.
