SECTION I: GENERAL INFORMATION
CR-ERNS Number:
If you are reporting a release of a CERCLA hazardous substance(s), you will be assigned a CR-ERNS number when you make this initial telephone call to the NRC
(1-800-424-8802). This CR-ERNS number will become the identifier for your facility. Your CR-ERNS number will never change; it is the number that identifies you in
the CR-ERNS database.
The information required in Section I of the initial written report and follow-up reports includes general information identifying your facility, as well as information
regarding the area in which your facility is located. This general information is important because it provides a better understanding of the potential risks resulting
from exposure from the facility's release. A signed statement asserting that the continuous release is continuous and stable in quantity and rate, and that the
information supplied is accurate and current to the best of your knowledge, is also required in Section I.
In addition, Section I must clearly identify the type of written report that you are submitting (i.e., an initial written report, a first anniversary follow-up report, or a
written report of the change in source or composition of a previously reported release). You must also include information on the initial notification of the release,
such as the date of the release and the date of the initial call. For CERCLA hazardous substances, the CR-ERNS number assigned to you by the NRC will also be
required.
Type of Report - Select from drop-down list.
Initial Written Notification - Within 30 days of the initial telephone notification,
you are required to submit an initial written report to the appropriate EPA
Regional Office, SERC, and LEPC (for releases of CERCLA hazardous
substances) and to only the appropriate SERC and LEPC (for releases of nonCERCLA EHSs). The purpose of this report is to confirm your intent to report
your release as a continuous release under Section 103(f)(2), and to provide
government response officials with sufficient information about your release to
enable them to determine if the release qualifies as a continuous release.

First Anniversary Follow-up Report - For reports of releases of CERCLA
hazardous substances, within 30 days of the first anniversary of your initial written
report, you are required to reassess your initial continuous release report and
gather the information on all of the reported substances being released. After
doing this, you must submit a one-time written first anniversary follow-up report to
the appropriate EPA Regional Office. Please note that the first anniversary report
must be sent to the appropriate EPA Regional Office for all reports of CERCLA
hazardous substances, but is not required for reports of non-CERCLA EHSs.

Written Notification of a Change to Initial Notification and/or Written Notification of a Change to Follow-up Report [NOTE: For these reports, select the report type that reflects the notification or report for which you are reporting a change.]
= Notification of a change in source or composition, which is treated as if it were a new release (i.e., with a telephone call to the NRC, SERC, and LEPC, followed by
a written report and a first anniversary follow-up report);
= Notification of a change in the normal range, if there is a change in the release such that the quantity of the release exceeds the upper bound of the reported normal
range, the release must be reported as a statistcally significant increase;
= For CERCLA substances only, notification of any other reported information (e.g., a change in facility ownership) in a written letter to only the EPA Region.
Part A. Facility or Vessel Information 1. The complete name of your facility (and company identifier where appropriate). If multiple facilities are included in your written report, provide the plant site
name with the name of the facility.
2. The full address of your facility, including the street address or highway marker, city, county, state, and zip code. A post office box number should not be used
as the facility address. The address provided should be the location of the facility where the hazardous substance release occurs.
3. The location of your facility by its latitude and longitude in units of degrees, minutes, and seconds. See below for helpful hints on how to obtain the latitude
and longitude coordinates of your facility.
4. The nine digit number assigned by Dun and Bradstreet (D&B) to your facility. This number can be obtained via telephone by an officer of your company
from the national office of Dun and Bradstreet (at 1-800-234-3867). If your facility has not been assigned a D&B number, please specify that the information
is not applicable. http://www.dnb.com/US/duns_update/
5. For reports of CERCLA hazardous substances, the CR-ERNS number assigned by the NRC when you made the initial telephone report. Be certain to include
the CR-ERNS number on each page of your report.
6. The name, telephone number (including area code), and an alternate telephone number for the person in charge of your facility.
SOURCES OF INFORMATION FOR IDENTIFYING THE LOCATION OF YOUR FACILITY
Sources of data on latitude and longitude coordinates of your facility include EPA permits (e.g., NPDES permits), county property records, facility blueprints, and site
plans. In addition, information on the latitude and longitude of your facility may be obtained from a United States Geological Survey (USGS) topographical map.
These maps are available in both the 7.5 minute and 15 minute series. These maps may be obtained from the USGS distribution center at your local public library. If
you would like to order a map from USGS, contact: U.S.Geological Survey - Information Services, Box 25286, Denver, CO 80225, call 1-888-ASK-USGS
(1-888-275-8747)/http://library.usgs.gov/maplinks.html
If you are not certain on which map your site is located, consult the index of topographic maps for your state, which may be obtained from USGS free of charge.
USGS maps are also available at commercial dealers such as surveyors or outdoor recreation equipment dealers.
Latitude/Longitude information can be obtained at the following websites: http://www.satsig.net/maps/lat-long-finder.htm, http://earth.google.com/, and http://www.
census.gov/geo/landview/.
Part B. Population Information 1. Choose the range from the drop down list, the range that most accurately describes the population density within a one-mile radius of your facility.
2. Identify and describe the location of any sensitive populations or ecosystems within a one-mile radius of your facility. If possible, describe the location of the
populations or ecosystems in terms of distance and direction from your facility (e.g., located ¼ mile northwest of the facility). Exact addresses are not
required.
Sensitive populations - populations likely to be more susceptible than average individuals to the effects of exposure to a hazardous substance. Examples of sensitive
populations are elementary school children, retirement communities, or hospitals.
Sensitive ecosystems - environments likely to be more susceptible than average environments to the effects of exposure to a hazardous substance, or ecosystems that
have been designated for special protection by Federal or state governments. Example of sensitive ecosystems includes wetlands.
