README for Transport Rule Emission Inventories Notice of Data
Availability (NODA)

The revisions to emissions inventories NODA placed into the Proposed
Transport Rule docket (75 FR 45210; Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2009-0491)
contains several types of data files.  These include 2005, 2012, and
2014 emissions inventories along with ancillary data files used during
the processing of the inventories.  The file names are intended to be
descriptive of the file contents. There are separate files for criteria
air pollutants (CAPs) and for selected hazardous air pollutants (HAPs)
that were included in the emissions modeling inventories. The provided
files are for three main emission inventory sectors: nonpoint (filenames
start with arinv_nonpt), point sources that are not electric generating
units (filenames start with ptinv_ptnonipm), and Category 3 (C3)
commercial marine emissions (filenames start with ptinv_eca). For more
information on these emission sectors and how they were processed for
the Proposed Transport Rule, see the Emissions Technical Support
Document available at   HYPERLINK

available from   HYPERLINK
"http://www.epa.gov/ttn/chief/emch/index.html#transport" 
http://www.epa.gov/ttn/chief/emch/index.html#transport .  

To see the contents of the files properly on Windows® computers, we
recommend using a text editor that supports Linux-style line endings
such as Wordpad. Note that some of the files may be too large for some
older programs, but the latest versions of Microsoft® Excel® or
Access® should be able to import many of the data files as
comma-delimited files if the Windows computer has ample disk space and
memory available.

A spreadsheet provided is with the NODA called
TR_EI_NODA_relevant_CoSTpackets_and_inventories.xls that is designed to
better describe the inventories and to help identify records that have
been updated in the ptnonipm and nonpt files as part of the NODA so that
review efforts can be appropriately prioritized. Note that each of the
provided inventory and ancillary files has descriptive information in
their headers that should prove useful to reviewers.

The data files included in the NODA are:
