EPA INFORMATION SYSTEMS INVENTORY (ISI)
Introduction
The Agency's Information Systems Inventory (ISI) contains information on approximately 500 of EPA's
current information systems as well as some models and data bases, and is the definitive source of summary
information about EPA systems. The ISI was developed to enhance the Agency's ability to track major
information systems and share information across media and program boundaries. Information for the ISI
was collected through a major mailing and telephone collection effort to all previously registered system
contacts. In addition, OIRM coordinated this update process with Senior IRM officials and other EPA
headquarters and regional staff.
The ISI database is updated and maintained by the Information Management and Services Division of the
Office of Information Resources Management, and is available in hardcopy and automated forms in the EPA
Headquarters and Regional libraries and through the National Technical Information Service (NTIS). For
each system in the inventory, the following information is collected and maintained: system name and
acronym, system level, responsible organization, contact person, legislative authorities, database
descriptors, access information, hardware and software, system abstract, and key words.
Purpose of the ISI
Maintaining an inventory of Agency systems is required by Federal regulations and oversight agencies. In
addition to meeting this requirement, the ISI serves to:
Increase users' awareness of existing Agency information systems,
• Reduce duplicative information system development and data collection efforts,
• Improve EPA's oversight of information system development, and
• Provide EPA with the ability to effectively respond to information requests about Agency
information systems.
Organization of the ISI
This volume is a hardcopy version of the complete list of systems contained in the automated ISI database.
The systems are organized by EPA offices and regions, as shown in the Index on page i-1.
At the end of this volume, there are four additional indexes to the information. These indexes include:
• Index A - contains an alphabetized listing of system names and page numbers.
• Index B - contains an alphabetized listing of system acronyms and page numbers.
• Index C - lists the systems according to system level.
Index D - lists publicly available systems.
These indexes can help you search through the systems inventory. More powerful searching capabilities are
possible using the electronic version of the inventory.
For this printed version of the ISI, each system record contains the following selected information:
• System: This is the name of the system and the acronym provided by the system's
owners.
-------
• Responsible Organization: This information is taken from the RPIO code (which
identifies the Assistant Administrator organization or the Regional Administrator level
organization) and the allowance code (which identifies the office level organization within
an Assistant Administrator/Regional Administrator).
Responsible Person: This is the name of the EPA person at the Branch level or
equivalent, within the organization named above, who has management rather than
technical responsibility for the system.
« Hardware/Software: This category contains information on the hardware and software
used to implement the system.
• System Level: This category is based on system use and criticality to the Agency.
There are four selections for this category. They include:
1. Major Agency Information System - An information system that
requires special continuing management attention because of its importance to an
agency mission; its high development, operating, or maintenance costs; or its
significant impact on administration of Agency programs, finances, property, or
other resources.
2. Widely Accessed Information System - An information system that is
not a Major Agency Information System, but which significantly supports
accepted program goals and missions and is widely accessed by a combination of
EPA Headquarters, Regional Offices, and/or State and local users and other
Federal agencies.
3. Localized Information System - An information system that is not a
Major Agency Information System or a Widely Accessed Information System,
but which significantly supports accepted program goals and missions.
4. User-Owned System - Unique, stand-alone system developed to improve
efficiency or effectiveness of operations for a single user or a small group of
users.
• Abstract: This is a paragraph that describes and defines the system.
Updates to the ISI
The ISI database is updated annually. OIRM maintains the master database and system documentation. The
current ISI database contains the best available information on EPA information systems. The dynamic
nature of the information, however, means that the ISI can capture only a static picture of the Agency's
collection of information systems. Questions and updates to the ISI are welcomed and encouraged. If you
are aware of an Agency system, database, or model which should be added to the ISI, or if you have changes
to make to a current system entry, you should fill out an ISI Update/New System Form. This form is
included at the end of this document. Please fill out a copy of the form with your additions or changes and
forward them to:

The Probabilistic Dilution Model, originally developed by the
Office of Water, estimates how often a given concentration level
may be exceeded in receiving streams. These estimates are based
on the statistical distribution of daily volume flows, which have
been shown to be log normal, and upon a mass balance dilution
equation. The Exposure Assessment Branch has put together a
program that uses the probabilistic dilution methodology. The
program contains averages of mean and low flows of streams in the
major river basins of the U.S.
