You still need to file an Annual report with chemicals for that year if the threshold was met for even one day in the previous year.      

**The reportable threshold level for Tier II reporting is defined as Hazardous chemicals at or above 10,000 pounds OR Extremely Hazardous Substances at or above 500 pounds or the designated threshold planning quantity (TPQ), if lower than 500 pounds OR any hazardous chemicals that OSHA requires you to maintain a Safety Data Sheet (SDS). Refer to the SDS for the chemical to determine if it is reportable.



If your facility is going to close:  
1. You must first file an Annual Tier II report with chemical if you had any chemicals onsite for even 1 day.    The Annual records chemicals onsite from Jan - Dec last year.  
2. Then you can file an Update Tier II report and complete step 2 noting that you no longer store chemicals as of a specific date.  An Update Report reflects the current scenario at your site. 

3. If your facility was also a planning facility, file an Amended EPN and select Step 2, noting that you no longer store EHS chemicals as of a specific date.  

4. If your company has sold, please  add a note in the "Notes" section of WHOPRS stating the facility has been sold (include new owner, new owner address, and new owner email if known). 

5. Once the Reports (Tier II and EPN (if applicable) are received by Admin noting that reportable quantities are no longer stored onsite, Admin will change the Facility status to Inactive.  The facility will not longer appear on the Active Facilities listing.  


If your facility did not store any reportable quantities of hazardous chemicals last year (not even for 1 day):
1.  File an Annual Tier II  Report and complete Step 2, noting that you no longer store reportable quantities.  The Annual records chemicals onsite from Jan - Dec last year.  
2. If your facility was also a planning facility, file an Amended EPN and select Step 2, noting that you no longer store EHS chemicals as of a specific date.  

3. Once the Reports (Tier II and EPN (if applicable) are received by Admin noting that reportable quantities are no longer stored onsite, Admin will change the Facility status to Inactive.  The facility will not longer appear on the Active Facilities listing.   If this facility does again store reportable quantities of the chemical, you can contact the Admin to make the facility Active again so that you do not need to re-enter all the data.
