KEY: N = data do not exist; R = revised.
a Fine particulate matter less than 10 microns.
b Other off-road comprises nonroad gasoline- and diesel-powered recreational,
airport service and railway maintenance vehicles, and recreational marine vessels.
c Industrial processes comprises chemical and allied product manufacturing, metals processing,
petroleum and related industries, and other industrial processes; solvent utilization; and
storage and transport.
d Miscellaneous comprises nonroad gasoline- and diesel-powered construction, industrial,
lawn and garden, farm, light-commercial, logging vehicles and other non-road sources; geogenic
sources; agriculture and forestry, cooling towers, nontransportation-related fugitive dust,
wildfires, managed burning, and other combustion sources that could not be accurately
allocated to specific source categories.
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 and, therefore,
some estimates in this table may not match estimates produced in previous reports. The most
recent revision of these estimates is based on Version 2 of the 1999 National Emissions
Inventory (NEI) and provides a generally consistent time trend of the estimates. However,
state-submitted data on mobile sources is only reflected in the estimates for 1999 and the EPA plans
to correct this inconsistency in future publications.
Except for residential wood combustion, included in the fuel combustion category, combustion
source emissions for 1999-2001 include both the condensible and filterable PM fractions.
Emissions prior to 1999 include only the filterable PM fraction. Residential wood combustion
emissions include both the condensible and filterable PM fractions for all years.
Numbers may not add to totals due to rounding.
