n: (RQ) 1. the quantity of released hazardous materials that, when exceeded, must be reported under CERCLA. The EPA is charged with setting the allowable limits for releases of each hazardous material. If a release exceeds the EPA reportable quantity, CERCLA requires that the owners or operators of the facility notify the National Response Center immediately. 2. SARA (section 304) also requires facilities that release a reportable quantity of an EHS or CERCLA hazardous substance to notify the SERC and the LEPC immediately. This requirement is similar to the CERCLA requirement to notify the NRC in case of reportable releases. Like CERCLA, SARA exempts federally permitted releases, continuous releases, any release contained 00 site, as well as other CERCLA exemptions from RQ reporting requirements. In addition, SARA requires a written followup report to be submitted to the SERC and the LEPC as soon as practicable after the release.
