PUBLIC REPORTING
TXU first began publishing an environmental
report for our stakeholders in 1991 and has
continued this effort on an annual basis since
that time. We were one of the first large
companies to share our environmental activities
with the public. We believe in letting our
stakeholders know how we are performing on
environmental matters and endeavor to improve
our reporting process to provide information of
interest.
We place environmental information on
our Internet Web site at www.txucorp.com
and welcome inquiries on our activities,
accomplishments and performance.
SPECIFIC REPORTING
A number of TXU regulatory reports are
available publicly. They include:
| • |
|
Toxic Release Inventory
In 1986, Congress passed the Emergency
Planning and Community Right-to-Know
Act (EPCRA) to help make the public aware
of chemicals used |
|
|
 |
|
| |
|
or released at certain
industrial facilities. Several TXU facilities
were included in this reporting program, with
reports submitted in 1999 for the first time.
2002 represents the fourth year that TXU has
submitted this informational report and
inventory of toxic releases to the EPA. To
review our submission, please visit TXU on the
Internet at www.txucorp.com.

| • |
|
Continuous Emission Monitoring
Power plant emission data are reported on a
real-time basis to the EPA. The information
is available publicly on the Internet at
www.epa.gov.
|
| • |
|
Reporting Air Emissions to Customers
TXU reports on emissions to customers twice
yearly through customer bill inserts.
Specifically, the reports provide changing
information on how much nitrogen oxide,
sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide are produced
per kilowatt-hour generated compared to the
Texas average. |
