re:
BART
rule
Peter,
Attached
are
the
two
final
versions
of
the
files
we
sent
to
Doug
Carter
for
his
review
of
the
BART
rule.
We
had
some
issues
trying
to
get
small
enough
files
to
pass
thru
Doug's
firewall
without
changing/
corrupting
the
file,
but
I
understand
he
now
has
what
was
needed.

Here
is
text
of
the
emails
I
sent
him
explaining
the
contents:

Doug,
here's
a
revised
file
for
non­
egus.
I
added
the
"
BART­
eligible"
info
as
identified
in
our
BART
analyses.
The
MACT
codes
were
not
available
on
the
2001BART
inventory,
and
are
not
relevant
to
Criteria
pollutants.
I
have
added
a
column
called
"
category"
which
identifies
the
source
type
based
on
the
SCC
code,
which
is
the
primary
characterizing
data
element
for
the
criteria
inventories.
The
"
category"
is
based
on
the
first
6­
digits
of
the
8­
digit
SCC
code.
Let
me
know
if
any
questions.

Dear
Mr.
Carter,

Attached
to
this
message
is
a
zip
file
containing
the
info
you
requested
to
enable
your
review
of
the
BART
rule.
The
attached
contains
an
Access
file
of
the
non­
egu
sources
in
the
2001
inventory
used
for
our
BART
analysis.
As
you
suggested,
we
have
shown
the
full
detail
only
for
those
records
with
any
pollutant
(
SO2,
NOx,
PM10,
PM2.5,
or
VOC)
greater
than
100
tons/
year,
or
where
a
State
agency
identified
the
unit
as
"
BART­
eligible".
A
second
table
in
the
Access
file
shows
the
State­
level
sums
for
All
Other
non­
egu
records
not
meeting
that
criteria.
Due
to
email
size
restrictions,
we
will
be
sending
a
second
email
immediately
following
this
one
containing
a
zip
file
with
all
of
the
EGU
info
for
both
2001
and
the
2015
medium
control
scenario.
Note
that
our
split
of
the
files
into
"
EGU"
and
"
non­
egu"
is
actually
based
upon
whether
an
emission
unit
was
an
electric
generation
unit
contained
in
the
IPM
model.
Thus,
there
are
some
industrial
cogeneration
units
seen
in
the
"
EGU"
split.

We
have
included
in
the
attached
a
table
of
State
and
County
FIPS
codes
along
with
their
names.
This
table
includes
both
text
and
numeric
versions
of
the
ST
and
CNTY
FIPS,
which
is
needed
because
our
modeling
files
store
the
codes
as
numeric
values,
not
the
usual
text.
The
attached
codes
do
not
contain
any
MACT
codes,
which
are
not
relevant
for
criteria
pollutants.
The
SCC
codes
are
universally
populated,
and
are
the
primary
characteristic
supplied
by
the
State
data
providers.
The
SCC
codes
should
be
used
to
identify
types
of
sources.
Boilers
always
have
an
SCC
beginning
with
"
1".
The
sixth
digit
will
identify
the
fuel:

1=
anthracite;
2=
bitum
or
sub­
bitum
coal;
3=
lignite;
4=
residual
oil;
5=
distillate;
6=
Natural
gas.
The
file
extension
on
the
attached
has
been
renamed
from
zip
to
piz
to
avoid
being
stripped
by
network
security
checks.
Please
save
the
file
and
rename
it
as
".
zip",
and
it
should
unzip
to
an
Access
MDB
file.
