MIRS Includes New Epa Sara Section 313 Reporting Changes

A V Systems, Inc., pioneer in the regulatory compliance management software field, announced that the company will release A V Systems, Inc. version 7.10 in April 2001, complete with all EPA SARA Section 313, Toxic Release Inventory chemical additions, deletions, and reporting thresholds changes for Report Year 2000. In the past year, Phosphoric acid was delisted from Section 313 TRI reporting requirements, while Persistent Bioaccumulative Toxics, or PBTs have been added, along with 17 Dioxin and Dioxin-like compounds, with thresholds and units of measurement that vary significantly from most Section 313 regulated chemicals.

"These EPA changes create significant challenges for companies that had previously manually tracked and reported SARA section 313 listed chemical releases," said Andrew Rudnik, President and CEO of A V Systems, Inc. "The newly added chemicals and the varied thresholds make the TRI reporting process increasingly complex. A V System's MIRS software eases the TRI reporting burden for those companies, with its unique Release Calculation feature. MIRS' FORM R module provides the user step-by-step guidance to ensure accurate Form R and Form A reporting."

MIRS software provides the EPA certified FORM R report--the only FORM R software approved before the reporting deadline every year since 1988.
