2002 Nonroad Supplement GIS Data - For nonroad source categories, activity or fuel use data are not readily available for all counties in the U.S. Therefore, emissions often are calculated at the national level and allocated to individual counties based on appropriated surrogates. Often the surrogate data are available as Geographic Information System (GIS) data sets. Three sets of files are provided here which contain the GIS data used to spatially allocate emissions for aircraft, commerical marine vessels (CMV), and locomotives. All of the 2002 data used in this inventory effort were obtained from the Department of Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) or the FAA's Emissions Dispersion and Modeling System (EDMS)

Biogenic Sector Data
Biogenic Sector Data and Readme for biogenic data - The biogenic emissions data has not been updated since it was originally posted in March 2004. It has been moved to the Final 2002 NEI FTP site for your convenience.

Posted Updates to Data
If you would like to submit comments or recommendations, please send an email to the Info Chief Help Desk at info.chief@epa.gov. The subject should be "2002 final NEI comment." As time and resources permit the 2002 inventory will be updated and corrected. This information is also posted in the folder General_Inventory_Information on the FTP site. 
   *                           February 23, 2006: Files related to the following areas of the NEI are not included in this release but will be available shortly: 
         o                                 Emission estimates and documentation for CAP and HAP emissions from Wildfires and Managed Burns. 
         o                                 Nonpoint sector documentation. 
         o                                 Point sector documentation and QA augmentation report. 
   *                           March 1, 2006: 
         o                                 Readmes were added to national ASCII text files and reposted. 
         o                                 SCC, SIC, and facility summary files for point sources were posted. CAP only. 
         o                                 SCC summary files for nonroad and onroad mobile sources were posted. CAP only. 
         o                                 SCC summary files for nonpoint sources were posted. CAP only. 
         o                                 All sector (sources) Tier 1, 2 and 3 summary files were posted (all_sector_summary_data folder). CAP only.

         o                                 The nonroad national ASCII zip file was reposted. The EM table was too large and was divided into two tables. 
         o                                 The onroad and nonroad county summary files were reposted. Files containing the individual County-SCC-Pollutant Emissions values in tons per year for 2002 are being provided in a set of five tab-delimited ASCII format files, because a single file for the entire US is too large to be readable in most systems.
