The purpose of this memorandum is to transmit to the docket a DVD containing the MOVES and NONROAD code
, databases
, and related f iles that were used to produce the inventories of emissions from onroad vehicles and nonroad equipment used in the air quality modeling and the national inventories for the Tier 3 Motor Vehicle Emission and Fuel Standards

. The disk contains three folders, one with the MOVES files for the air quality modeling, one with the MOVES files for the national inventories, and one with the NONROAD files. Table 1 lists the contents of the MOVES folder for the air quality modeling

. Table 2 lists the co ntents of the NONROAD folder. Table 3 lists the contents of the MOVES folder for the national inventories. Each folder contains both files and subfolders.
