This report <br />remains confidential. <br />2.Notice to Toxics Board of Trade Secret Reports Filed with the Office of the Fire Marshal <br />A manufacturer files this form with the Toxics Board when it files one or more substantiation <br />forms with the Office of the Fire Marshal. This form is available to the public. <br />3.Aggregate Materials Accounting of Trade Secret Chemicals <br />If more than one trade secret chemical is claimed, an aggregate accounting of the inputs and <br />outputs of all trade secret chemicals is entered into the manufacturers public materials <br />accounting report as a separate line. Due April 1 of each year. <br />4.Public Report of Precautions in Use and Alternatives to Use of Trade Secret Hazardous <br />Substances <br />This form is completed by a Toxics Board-certified independent auditor for each trade secret <br />chemical, and submitted by the manufacturer to the Toxics Board prior to April 1 of each year. <br />This form is available to the public. <br /> <br />Businesses are advised to track their use of ALL reportable hazardous <br />substances, including trade secret chemicals, whether or not they believe <br />they will be required to report that use.
