refineries2 and  7ii7 require-- 7,i7    
real-time fenceline air monitoring of   
emissions of hydrogen cyanide at each   
petroleum refinery and real-time online 
public reporting of such monitoring2    
7,,ii7 a community release alert system 
for residents exposed to emissions of   
hydrogen cyanide from a petroleum       
refinery2 and  7,,iii7 regular          
electronic reporting to the             
,administrator of all monitoring data
