Environmental Interest Types:

AIR MAJOR:A Clean Air Act Stationary Source Major discharger of air pollutants according to the Alabama power decision's definition of a major source or the 1993 EPA Compliance Monitoring Branch Classification Guidance. A facility is classified as a Major Discharger if: * Actual or potential emissions are above the applicable major source thresholds, or * Actual or potential controlled emissions > 100 tons/year as per Alabama power decision, or * Unregulated pollutant actual or potential controlled emissions > 100 tons/year as per Alabama power decision.
AIR PROGRAM:An environmental program that regulates or monitors air emissions from area, stationary, and mobile sources, as required by the Clean Air Act.
CRITERIA AND HAZARDOUS AIR POLLUTANT INVENTORY:A national inventory of emissions data of both hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) and criteria air pollutants. Criteria air pollutants include ozone, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, lead, and fine particulate matter and HAPs, or air toxics, are defined in section 112(b) of the 1990 clean air act amendments.
ENFORCEMENT/COMPLIANCE ACTIVITY:A compliance monitoring or enforcement activity, from the time an inspector conducts an inspection until the time the inspector closes or the case settles the enforcement action.
FORMAL ENFORCEMENT ACTION:A civil judicial or administrative enforcement action under an environmental statute.
GREENHOUSE GAS REPORTER:Greenhouse gas reporters are required to annually report greenhouse gases (GHGs) from large GHG emission sources in the united states. Implementation of 40 CFR part 98 is referred to as the greenhouse gas reporting program (GHGRP) and applies to direct GHG emitters, fossil fuel suppliers, industrial gas suppliers, and facilities that inject CO2 underground for sequestration or other reasons. In general, the threshold for reporting is 25,000 metric tons or more of carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalent per year. Reporting is at the facility level, except for certain suppliers of fossil fuels and industrial greenhouse gases.
ICIS-NPDES NON-MAJOR:A Clean Water Act (CWA) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) discharger of pollutants into waters of the United States that is not designated as a major is considered a non-major.
NPDES MAJOR:A Clean Water Act (CWA) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Major discharger of pollutants into waters of the United States.
SPCC:Originally published in 1973 under the authority of the Clean Water Act, the Oil Pollution Prevention regulation sets forth requirements for prevention of, preparedness for, and response to oil discharges at specific non-transportation-related facilities. To prevent oil from reaching navigable waters and adjoining shorelines, and to contain discharges of oil, the regulation requires these facilities to develop and implement spill prevention, control, and countermeasure (SPCC) plans and establishes procedures, methods, and equipment requirements.
SQG:Hazardous Waste Small Quantity Generators (SQGs) generate: * More than 100 and less than 1000 kilograms of hazardous waste during any calendar month and accumulate less than 6000 kg of hazardous waste at any time; or * 100 kg or less of hazardous waste during any calendar month, and accumulate more than 1000 kg of hazardous waste at any time.
STATE MASTER:A state registry system that maintains basic identification information for a facility site, including the state master identifier, geographic address, affiliated organizations and contacts, industrial classifications, and linkages to environmental permits and programs.
TRI REPORTER:A Toxic Release Inventory Reporter is a facility which: * Employs the equivalent of 10 or more full-time employees; and * Is included in Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes 10xx, 12xx, 20xx-39xx, 4911, 4931, 4939, 4953, 5169, 5171, or 7389; and * Manufactures (defined to include importing), processes, or otherwise uses any Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) Section 313 chemical in quantities greater than the established threshold in the course of a calendar year (i.e., manufactures or processes over 25,000 pounds of the approximately 600 designated chemicals or 28 chemical categories specified in the regulations, or uses more than 10,000 pounds of any designated chemical or category).
TSCA SUBMITTER:The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) of 1976 provides EPA with authority to require reporting, record-keeping and testing requirements, and restrictions relating to chemical substances and/or mixtures. Certain substances are generally excluded from TSCA, including, among others, food, drugs, cosmetics and pesticides. TSCA addresses the production, importation, use, and disposal of specific chemicals including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBS), asbestos, radon and lead-based paint.

NAICS Code:

325110:Petrochemical Manufacturing
325199:All Other Basic Organic Chemical Manufacturing

SIC Code:

2869:Industrial Organic Chemicals, Not Elsewhere Classified
5171:Petroleum Bulk Stations And Terminals
