根据 SARA 第三章，公司必须提供有关其制造、储存或加工化学品的信息。社区将利用有关潜在意外泄漏的数据来制定当地应急计划。有关常规化学品释放的数据将通过计算机数据库向公众提供。仅仅拥有此类数据并不能确保就减少潜在化学风险达成共识。实验室和现场研究的总结表明，人们倾向于将小风险编辑为零，因为太小而无需担心，或者从等于潜在损失的锚定点进行不完美的调整。这些结果为沟通化学品意外或常规释放所造成的风险提出了建议。
Under Title III of SARA, companies must provide information about chemicals that they manufacture, store, or process. Communities will use data about potential accidental releases to develop local emergency plans. Data about routine chemical releases will be made available to the public on a computer data base. Simply having such data available does not ensure consensus about reducing potential chemical risks. Laboratory and field research are summarized, indicating that people tend to edit small risks to zero as being too small to worry about, or to adjust them imperfectly from an anchor equal to the potential loss. These results suggest recommendations for communicating about the risks posed by accidental or routine releases of chemicals.
