This statement shall include, but not be limited to, a description of the ways in which the toxics user encourages toxics use reduction and a description of any policy applicable to the facility that encourages or discourages toxics use reduction. This statement may include, without limitation, the following information: (a) a description of how toxics use reduction affects the facility's policy or decisions concerning research and development; (b) a description of how toxics use reduction affects the facility's policy or decisions concerning financial investments or capital investments; (c) a description of how toxics use reduction affects the facility's policy or decisions concerning hiring, promotions or bonuses, or other incentives, for facility employees; (d) any other policy applicable to the facility that encourages or discourages toxics use reduction.

The description of each production unit shall include the following information as reported in the facility's toxics use report due on the same date that the plan summary is due: 1. the number assigned to the production unit; 2. the process or processes associated with the production unit; 3. the product produced by the production unit; and, 4. the chemical name and CAS number of each covered toxic manufactured, processed, or otherwise used in the production unit. (b) a summary of the identification process pursuant to 310 CMR 50.45(1); (c) a brief description of the technologies, procedures, or training programs identified pursuant to 310 CMR 50.46(3), (4) and (5).
