KEY: R = Revised.
a Other off-road comprises nonroad gasoline- and diesel-powered
recreational, airport service and railway maintenance vehicles, and recreational
marine vessels.
b Industrial processes comprises chemical and allied
product manufacturing, metals processing, petroleum and related industries,
and other industrial processes; and solvent utilization, storage, and transport.
c Miscellaneous comprises nonroad gasoline- and diesel-powered
construction, industrial, lawn and garden, farm, light-commercial, logging vehicles,
and other nonroad sources; geogenic sources, catastrophic and accidental releases,
health services, cooling towers, nontransportation-related fugitive dust, agriculture
and forestry, structural fires, agriculture fires, slash/prescribed burning,
forest wildfires, and other combustion sources that could not be accurately
allocated to specific source categories.
d Miscellaneous data for 1999 does not include emissions
from geogenic sources, because the data was not estimated in 1999. The methodologies
used for obtaining geogenic emission data are still being improved and current
estimates will be revised at a later date.
NOTES: The methodologies used to estimate emissions constantly
evolve and undergo major changes. These improved methods are often used to revise
estimates for previous years. Therefore, some estimates in this table may not
match estimates produced in previous reports, and some trends may not be consistent
across years in which major changes in methodology have occurred.
Numbers may not add to totals due to rounding.
