13
AN
A facility identifier assigned by
							 the local regulator supporting cross-linking of CERS and local data system
							 records. Because CUPAs do not consistently apply the original regulatory
							 definition of this field (2 AN county 3 AN jurisdiction 6 AN facility number),
							 CERS accepts any alphanumeric string up to 13 characters. The original
							 regulator goals of this field are fulfilled through the CERS ID and CERS System
							 Field "FacilityRegulatorKey" (20.0084).
False
1a
CERS ID
Cal/EPA assigned, 8- or 9-
							 digit ID assigned to a specific facility that never has leading zeroes (begins
							 at 10000001). Cal/EPA does not anticipate using 9- digit CERS IDs until the
							 year 2020 or beyond.
