National Pollutant Release Inventory

The National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI), established in 1992, and launched in 1993, is the national pollutant release and transfer register of Canada.Over 300 substances are listed on the NPRI, and over 8,000 facilities annually report information on their pollutant releases and transfers to Environment and Climate Change Canada.NPRI data is available through an on-line Query search, downloadable Microsoft Access (mdb) format datasets, and downloadable map layers for use with Google Earth (which were the first Google Earth map layers to be published by the Government of Canada).Other uses include evaluating releases and transfers of any substances of concern, model air quality and implement policy initiatives.This software guides users through a comprehensive questionnaire in order to organize and set up their annual report.
