For more information on the data, see the technical notes.

* Split: if 50% appears in this column, then the facility's emissions have been split among two 50/50% ownership parent companies.

** This facility's emissions are nonlocal -- released in a widespread area. So it is not meaningful to look at the characteristics of the population living within 10 miles of the facility address for copollutant effects.

*** Biogenic CO2 has not been included within the emissions totals anywhere else in this application.

**** "Other emissions" include HFCs, NF3, PFC, SF6, and other fluorinated gases.
