How to get Community Right to Know Information

By Mail
To obtain information submitted to the Community Right to Know program (Community Right to Know Surveys or Release and Pollution Prevention Reports), requests must be submitted through the Office of the Records Access (ORA). A request for information must be filed on an official Open Public Records Act (OPRA) request form. You can access the OPRA website at http://www.nj.gov/dep/opra/.


Hazardous Substance Fact Sheets
The New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS) develops and distributes Hazardous Substance Fact Sheets (HSFS) for many of the chemicals subject to Right to Know reporting. The Fact Sheets explain specific health effects of a chemical from workplace exposures, ways to reduce or control workplace exposure, and emergency information. HSFSs may be obtained from DHSS Right to Know Program at P.O. Box 368, Trenton, NJ 08625, by calling 609-984-2202 or at the DHSS web site.
