About Air CHIEF CD-ROM
As a part of its commitment to protecting global
air quality, the U. S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is working to provide current emis-
sions data in convenient, easy-to-access formats
to Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies,
businesses, and the general public. An important
tool in this effort is the Air Clearinghouse for In-
ventories and Emission Factors (Air CHIEF) CD-
ROM.
The Air CHIEF CD-ROM provides access to air
emission data for pollutants that may be emitted
from a wide variety of sources. Air CHIEF offers
literally thousands of pages contained in some of
EPA's most widely used and requested docu-
ments. Additionally, Air CHIEF provides quick and
easy access to several air emission estimation
System Requirements
The minimum requirements to run Air CHIEFare
an IBM-compatible PC with at least a 486
processor (pentium or better is recommended),
4 megabytes of RAM, and 12MB hard disk space.
Air CHIEF requires a CD-ROM drive and is
supported under the Microsoft Windows!8 95,98,
NT 3.51 or 4.0 environments. Files on the Air
CHIEF CD-ROM can be read on UNIX or
Macintosh systems using the Acrobat8Reader9
appropriate for these systems, but technical
support will not be provided for these systems.

The Air CHIEF CD-ROM consolidates onto one disk a collection of air pollutant and emission source information from U.S. EPA Emission Factor and Inventory Group (EFIG) reports and databases.
emission factors
emission inventories
AP-42 Volume I: The
Compilation of Air Pollutant
Emission Factors, Volume I
(AP-42), contains emission —
factors and descriptions of
activities that produce criteria
and toxic pollutant emissions for most stationary
point and area sources. Includes Supplements
A, B, C, D and E and AP-42 Background Files.
FIRE 6.22: The Factor Information REtrieval
Data System (FIRE), version 6.22, is a database
system containing EPA's recommended
criteria and hazardous air pollutant (HAP)
emission estimation factors. The FIRE
data files include emission factors
for criteria pollutants (CO, SO2, NOX,
Lead, VOCs and PM-10) and Haz-
ardous Air Pollutants (HAP) for both
stationary and mobile sources.
AP-42 Volume II, Tables G-K: The EPA Office
of Transportation and Air Quality's' Compilation
of Air Pollutant Emission Factors, Volume II (AP-
42), contains extensive highway vehicle and nonroad
mobile source emission factor information.
L & E Documents*: Locating & Estimating
Emissions For Sources Of (L & E) documents
provide information on specific toxic air pollutants
and related source categories. Each document
contains guidelines concerning one specific air toxic
pollutant or source and includes general process
descriptions, potential release points, and emission
factors.
* EPA recommends that users first refer to the
National Toxics Inventory (NTI) documentation
for the most recent toxics information. Several
portions of older L&E documents have been
revised in the NTI documentation.
EIIP Documents: The Emission Inventory
Improvement Program (EIIP) provides guidance on
the development of cost-effective, reliable inventories.
EIIP documents present preferred and alternative
methods for estimating air
emissions for many point,
area, mobile, and biogenic
source categories. EIIP
guidance supplements and
complements AP-42.
Included in this update is
Volume VIII, Greenhouse
Gases.
National Toxics Inventory: The National Toxics
Inventory (NTI) is a national repository of inventory
data and estimated emissions for hazardous air pol-
lutants (HAPs) and their sources. The 1996 base
year NTI provides support for air quality modelers
and other risk assessment specialists.

SCC, AMS, SIC & NAICS Codes
Source Classification Codes (SCC) indicate
the industrial process or function within a
source category that is associated with a
point of air emissions. Area Mobile Source
(AMS) codes classify mobile or area sources.
Air CHIEF also includes the
1997 North American Indus-
trial Classification System
(NAICS) codes, which have
been matched to the 1987
U.S. Standard Industrial
Classification (SIC) codes.
emission estimation software tools
SPECIATE 3.0 for Windows®: Contains organic
compound and paniculate matter (PM) speciation
profiles for more than 300 source types. SPECIATE
contains 262 new TOC profiles and 13 new PM profiles.
BEIS 2.3: The PC version of the Biogenic Emissions
Inventory System, allows users to estimate hourly
emissions of biogenic volatile organic compound and
soil nitrogen oxide emissions for any county in the
contiguous United States.
PMCALC: A calculator program applicable to point
sources. This program calculates controlled emissions
for PM-2.5 and PM-10.
CHEM 9: A compound properties processor based
upon an EPA compound database. It provides the
ability to estimate compound properties, including the
compound volatility and the theoretical recovery (fraction
measured (Fm)) for EPA test methods 25D and 305.
CHEM DATS: A Lotus 1 -2-3* spreadsheet prepared
by EPA's Emission Standards Division that includes
analytical models for estimating VOCs from treatment,
storage and disposal facility (TSDF) processes.
WATERS: Menu-driven computer software for
estimating emissions from wastewater treatment
systems.
Air CHIEF is available to Federal, state, and local
agencies by calling the Info CH/EFhelp desk.
Info CHIEF has a
new phone number!
