- The National Emissions Inventory (NEI) is a comprehensive and detailed estimate of air emissions of criteria pollutants, criteria precursors, and hazardous air pollutants from air emissions sources. The NEI is released every three years based primarily upon data provided by State, Local, and Tribal air agencies for sources in their jurisdictions and supplemented by data developed by the US EPA. The NEI is built using the Emissions Inventory System (EIS) first to collect the data from State, Local, and Tribal air agencies and then to blend that data with other data sources.

- Total deposition maps and the underlying data have been produced using wet deposition measurements from the NADP National Trends Network (NTN) and estimates of dry deposition using a method that combines ambient air monitoring data with output from the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) modeling system. This method of estimating dry deposition gives priority to measurement data near the location of the monitor and priority to CMAQ data in areas where monitoring data are not available. Additionally, CMAQ output is used for species such as peroxyacetylnitrate (PAN), dinitrogen pentoxide (N2O5), nitric oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), nitrous acid (HONO) and organic nitrate that are not routinely measured, but likely contribute a significant amount to the total nitrogen budget. The sections below provide details on the monitoring and modeling data and methodology. In the final section, notes and caveats are provided that discuss limitations of the data. Note that this product is dynamic and will be updated as new monitoring and modeling data become available and as improvements to the methodology are implemented. Therefore, it is critical to note the version number associated with the data. The version number consists of a 4-digit year and a 2-digit release number.

- On June 25, 2013, President Obama issued a Presidential Memorandum directing the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to work expeditiously to complete greenhouse gas (GHG) standards for the power sector. The agency is using its authority under section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) to issue emission guidelines to address GHG emissions from existing power plants. The Presidential Memorandum directs the EPA to issue proposed GHG guidelines for existing power plants by no later than June 1, 2014, and issue final guidelines by no later than June 1, 2015. In addition, the Presidential Memorandum directs the EPA to, in the guidelines, require States to submit to EPA the implementation plans required under section 111(d) of the CAA by no later than June 30, 2016. On June 18, 2014, the EPA proposed emission guidelines for States to follow in developing plans to address GHG emissions from existing fossil fuel-fired electrical generating units (EGU), using its authority under CAA 111(d). On November 4, 2014, the EPA published a supplemental proposal to address GHG emissions from existing fossil fuel-fired EGU on tribal lands and in U.S. territories.

- Dioxin and dioxin-like compounds data are reported on the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) Reporting Form R Schedule 1. There are seventeen distinct members of this chemical category listed under TRI. In addition to the total grams released for the entire category, facilities must report the quantity for each individual member. Although useful, total releases are not the best measure of the actual toxicity of these compounds because each compound has its own level of toxicity. To account for how compounds vary in toxicity, EPA calculates weighted values called toxic equivalents (TEQs) from the individual mass quantity data reported by facilities and the associated Toxic Equivalency Factors (TEFs). TEQs allow for a better understanding of the toxicity of releases and waste management activities at facilities that report to the TRI Program.

This dataset consists of the non confidential identities of chemical substances submitted under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). TSCA was enacted to ensure that chemicals manufactured, imported, processed, or distributed in commerce, or used or disposed of in the United States do not pose any unreasonable risks to human health or the environment. EPA adds chemical substances to the TSCA Inventory following EPAs receipt of a Notice of Commencement (NOC) signaling the manufacturers intent to produce a chemical substance that EPA has previously reviewed and approved. Since EPA published the final TSCA Inventory Reporting Rule on December 23, 1977, the TSCA Inventory has grown to include the identities of over 83, 000 chemical substances.

- Ecoregions are areas where ecosystems (and the type, quality, and quantity of environmental resources) are generally similar. This ecoregion framework is derived from Omernik (1987) and from mapping done in collaboration with EPA regional offices, other Federal agencies, state resource management agencies, and neighboring North American countries. Designed to serve as a spatial framework for the research, assessment, and monitoring of ecosystems and ecosystem components, ecoregions denote areas of similarity in the mosaic of biotic, abiotic, terrestrial, and aquatic ecosystem components with humans being considered as part of the biota. These regions are critical for structuring and implementing ecosystem management strategies across Federal agencies, state agencies, and nongovernmental organizations that are responsible for different types of resources within the same geographic areas. Ecoregions are identified by analyzing the patterns and composition of biotic and abiotic phenomena that affect or reflect differences in ecosystem quality and integrity. These phenomena include geology, landforms, soils, vegetation, climate, land use, wildlife, and hydrology.

- To improve public health and the environment, the EPA collects information about facilities or sites subject to environmental regulation. The EPA Geospatial Data Access Project provides downloadable files of these facilities or sites in the following formats: Extensible Markup Language (XML), Keyhole Markup Language (KML), ESRI Geodatabase, and Comma Separated Value (CSV). Within the file is key facility information, along with associated environmental interests for use in mapping and reporting applications.1Licence not specifiedover 2 years ago
- The National Emissions Inventory (NEI) is a detailed estimate of air emissions that include criteria pollutants and hazardous air pollutants. It is an aggregate of data from State, Local, and Tribal sources, compiled every three years. It currently has data from 2008, 2011, and 2014. This data informs the EPA Report on the Environment. While containing a few new files, this dataset is highly overlapped with this dataset: https://www.datarefuge.org/dataset/national-emissions-inventory-nei-air-emissions-inventories-us-epa Internet Archive URL: https://web.archive.org/web/*/https://epa.gov/air-emissions-inventories1Licence not specifiedover 2 years ago
