  1. EI Codes Angelique Luedeker, ITEP/TAMS Center

  2. Homework Discussion Does anyone have questions on the TEISS installation?

  3. CODES!!! Why do we need them? Computers organize information by codes Standardize descriptions and categories Examples States – CO, Co, Colo., Colorado A computer sees 08, the FIPS code for Colorado Takes guesswork out One long code signifies a paragraph-long process description

  4. FIPS Codes • FIPS - Federal Information Processing Standard • States, Counties, and Tribes • Example • Kansas FIPS code = 20 (2 digit) • Brown County FIPS code = 013 (3 digit) • Kickapoo FIPS code = 861 (3 digit)

  5. SCC - Source Classification Codes • Approximately 9,000 valid codes • Maintained / categorized by U.S. EPA • Source Classification • Point= 8 characters • Nonpoint, Non-Road, On-Road, Event and Biogenic = 10 characters • EVERY PROCESS in TEISS must have an SCC! • Used as primary identifying data element in EPA's National Emission Inventory (NEI)

  6. SCC for Point Sources • Example: 30200501 • 3-02-005-01 = 8-characters • For each SCC, there are four levels of descriptions • SCC 1 Description (3): Industrial Processes • SCC 3 Description (02): Food and Agriculture • SCC 6 Description (005): Feed and Grain Terminal Elevators • SCC 8 Description (01): Shipping and Receiving

  7. SCC for Nonpoint and Other Sources • Example: 2610030000 • 26-10-030-000 = 10 characters • Only 1 of each SCC in a location (reservation) because nonpoint SCC emissions are combined (unless emission type is diff: evap, exhaust, refueling are diff types of emissions from same SCC) • For each SCC, four levels of descriptions • SCC 2 Description (26): Waste Disposal, Treatment, and Recovery • SCC 4 Description (26-10): Open Burning • SCC 7 Description (26-10-030): Residential • SCC 10 Description (26-10-030-000): Household Waste

  8. SIC and NAICS Codes SIC - Standard Industrial Classification NAICS – North American Industry Classification System Economic sector codes Beginning in 1997, SIC replaced by NAICS NAICS reorganizes categories on production/process-oriented basis  EVERY POINT SOURCE in TEISS must have a NAICS Code!

  9. TEISS View –NAICS Codes – How to Find Them

  10. Let’s start a project • Open TEISS View • Click ‘New’ • Name your project, log the name • Do not use special characters or spaces in name • Inventory year = 2011 • Select your state and tribe • Notice and log the FIPS code for your tribe

  11. Then we’ll find some SCCs. Database Login For Database Name, enter the name of your TEISS project Leave User Name as “sa” Database Password is “eiview” Application Credentials Leave User Name as Administrator Password is “Teiss” (w/ a capital T) Starting a Project (cont.)

  12. Homework due in 5 days: Start your new TEISS project in the course folder on your hard drive, if you have not already done this. Name it something you can remember, like YourTribeEI, log the name and location of the project in your TEISS logbook Use it to determine the SCCs of the sources in the Homework_EICodes document. Email your answers to the instructors.
