EPA announces automatic addition of nine PFAS to the TRI list effective Jan 3, 2025 (Reporting Year 2025)

EPA (via EPCRA SERC/TERC Update) announced the automatic addition of nine PFAS to the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) list effective January 3, 2025. This expands the PFAS subject to TRI reporting and impacts covered facilities’ chemical tracking and TRI Form R/Form A reporting for Reporting Year 2025 (with forms due July 1, 2026, as stated in the update). Compliance teams at TRI-covered facilities should update chemical inventories, supplier declarations, and reporting systems to ensure these PFAS are captured for applicable release and waste management reporting.
