- assured values of that parameter immediately preceding and immediately following the missing data incident. (c) If, for a particular parameter, no quality
- assured data are available prior to the missing data incident, the substitute data value must be the first quality
- assured value obtained after the missing data period. If, for a particular parameter, the “after” value is not obtained by the end of the reporting year, you may use the last quality
- assured va lue obtained “before” the missing data period for the missing data substitution.

Biogas means the combination of CO 2, CH 4 , and other gases produced by the biological breakdown of organic matter in the absence of oxygen. Ethanol production means an operation that produces ethanol from the fermentation of sugar, starch, grain, or cellulosic biomass feedstocks, or the production of ethanol synthetically from petrochemical feedstocks, such as ethylene or other chemicals. Food processing means an operation used to manufacture or process meat, poultry, fruits, an d/or vegetables as defined under NAICS 3116 (Meat Product Manufacturing) or NAICS 3114 (Fruit and Vegetable Preserving and Specialty FoodPage 27 of 28

Manufacturing). For information on NAICS codes, see http://www.census.gov/eos/www/naics/ . Industrial wastewater means water containing wastes from an industrial process. Industrial wastewater includes water which comes into direct contact with or results from the storage, production, or use of any raw material, intermediate product, finished product, by
-product, or waste product. Examples of industrial wastewater include, but are not limited to, paper mill white water, wastewater from equipment cleaning, wastewater from air pollution control devices, rinse water, contaminated stormwater, and contaminated cooling water. Industrial wastewater treatment sludge means solid or semi
solid material resulting from the treatment of industrial wastewater, including but not limited to biosolids, screenings, grit, scum, and settled solids. Wastewater treatment system means the collect ion of all processes that treat or remove pollutants and contaminants, such as soluble organic matter, suspended solids, pathogenic organisms, and chemicals from wastewater prior to its reuse or discharge from the facility. **Table II –**  **1 to Subpart II —**  **Emissio n Factors**
