14 A snapshot (facility and emissions) gives you detailed information to include units, processes and release points in a format to import into TEISS

15 First select the Facility Snapshot bar.

16 Navajo For a facility snapshot, select the agency of interest. I am signed on as North Carolina but notice that I have access to additional agencies which have allowed me to READ their data.

17 Next select the data category. In this case it would be Facility Inventory.

18 There are two links available, request and download. If request is selected a new snapshot will be generated overnight. If you select Download, you will download the latest snapshot generated on the Last Generation Date.

19 When you select “Download”, a box will open with a link to the file. Select that link and the File Download box will open. Select “Save” and select the location for the file. Files are downloaded in a zipped file format. To import these files into TEISS, the files must be unzipped and the xml file extracted to your directory.

20 An emissions snapshot is done the same way except you need to select a dataset under the Emissions Snapshot filter and select Point in the Data Category filter. In this case, select the appropriate inventory year for your agency.

23 OVERVIEW (CONT.) Emissions Inventory System

24 Emissions Summary by Geography Used to look at point, nonpoint, onroad, and nonroad Runs every 15 minutes and downloads in.csv Reports can be done on a national, regional, state/tribe, or county level Reports can be done by Data Category (Point, Nonpoint, etc); Sectors (Ag, Fires, Dust, etc); or by SCC

25 There are additional reports which can be used for analysis. These reports cannot be uploaded into TEISS, but open in Excel. One of the best reports is the emissions summary by geography report.

26 At the top of the page are highlighted items which are required to be selected to run the summary report. For this example we will use the State/Tribal by SCC

27 Next you need to select the dataset that you wish to summarize. You can either select what your agency has submitted, or you may select the dataset representing what EPA will publish on our public website. These selections will be a combination of both agency data and EPA data.

28 Next you are required to select either a specific pollutant code by using the search box; or you may use the preselected groups represented by Active CAPS; Active HAPs, etc. For this example we have selected NOx. Next you have additional filters, such as a specific agency, data category, sector, or SCC. When selections are done, select Run Report or Request Download.
