" The announcement today -- supported by a broad array of environmental groups and opposed by small businesses -- allows a rule by the Clinton administration to take effect. It will require companies that handle as little as 100 pounds of lead a year to report to the Environmental Protection Agency how much is released into the air, soil and water. Until now, the reporting threshold had been at least 10,000 pounds a year."
