What the record is
Reporting is required of facilities above set thresholds, so the inventory names the larger industrial, utility and institutional sites, not every business. Each entry records the facility, what it reported and the amounts.
The report line counts the reporting facilities within 2 km and names the nearest, with a link to its inventory page.
