1.0 Introduction
The Aerometric Information Retrieval System (AIRS) is the USEPA database used for
the tracking, maintenance and retrieval of data pertaining to airborne pollutants. The AIRS
Facility Subsystem (AFS) is the subsystem of AIRS used by EPA, State and local agencies for
the management of federal and state emissions inventory and compliance programs for
facility-based pollutants. This volume describes the data coding requirements necessary to
create, modify and delete data in AFS. It is one of five volumes comprising the AFS User's
Guide. The other volumes are:
AF1 AFS Data Dictionary
AFS AFS Data Storage
AF4 AFS Retrievals of Data
AFS AFS AD Hoc Retrievals
In addition to this introductory section, AF2 contains the following sections:

2.0 Overview of AFS Data Coding
Users of AFS may create, modify or delete data in the database through either of two
methods. Online updating allows users to access online screens displaying all data elements
associated with each AFS record type. Each AFS record has an associated online update
screen. Online users either fill in new data or modify existing data in the appropriate data
fields, press < enter >, and the changes are made immediately to the AFS database. Deletions
of data when working online are performed using a deletion utility, and are not effected
directly on the online update screen. Batch updating allows users to create transactions
containing their data in datasets separate from AFS, and then submit them to AFS for nightly
batch update processing. Batch users specify if they want to add, change or delete data
through the use of batch update codes "A" (add), "C" (change) or "D" (delete). Just as there
is a one-to-one correlation between each AFS record type and its data and the online update
screens, there is a one-to-one correlation between each AFS record type and the individual
batch transaction formats used to update in the batch mode.
Each AFS online update screen and batch transaction type is identified by a unique
number. The associated AFS record types, update screen numbers and batch transaction
types are as follows:

2.1 Key and Mandatory Data
The identification of each AFS record is accomplished through the use of key data. Key
data are those data elements used by the AFS database management software to efficiently
store each record. For example, each facility in AFS is identified by the database management
software using a combination of State, County and Plant ID codes. In the AFS General Plant
record, users may track several different data elements describing the plant, its location and
operations and contact persons, but only the State/County/Plant values are used by the
database to uniquely identify the specific AFS General Plant record. Consequently, each
record type in AFS has at least one key data element used by the database for storage and
access. Users must provide these data when attempting to create new records or modifying
or deleting existing ones. For online screen users, AFS requires the user to provide key values
or they may not proceed further with their update session.

Batch users must also provide these values for each batch transactions, or the transaction will
be rejected during the nightly batch processing cycle. In addition to the key data required for
each record, users must also provide mandatory data for almost all record types. Mandatory
data are data elements designated by EPA as the minimum level of information needed when
maintaining an AFS record .in support of a federal program. For example, EPA requires all
emissions inventory facilities tracked in AFS to possess at a minimum plant name, address,
source industrial classification data and inventory year. AFS does not require these data to
track the record itself, as it does with key data, but the mandatory data are required to
support minimum EPA emissions inventory program standards. As with key data, mandatory
data elements must be provided by the user - either online through the use of update screens,
or in each batch transaction- or the record will not be successfully updated to the AFS
database. The following data are mandatory in AFS:

2.2 Error Messages
AFS utilizes text error messages to inform users of unsuccessful attempts at updating the
database. For online update screen and delete utility users, the error message is displayed at the top
of the screen in response to invalid attempts at data entry, the omission of key and mandatory data,
or the use of an invalid function key. Similar error messages are displayed to batch transaction users,
who receive a complete transaction update report following each batch update. The report describes
each batch transaction and the outcome of its processing, including acceptance or rejection to the
database. All transaction rejections are noted on the report along with the error message applicable
to the rejection. In sections 3-8 of this volume, all applicable online and batch transaction error
messages are displayed with their associated transaction type update screens and data elements.
2.3 Online Screen Update
As noted in section 2.0, users of AFS may employ online screens for the updating of their
data. While each AFS record type has its own screen, update screen operation is consistent
throughout the system. Figure 2-1 represents a typical AFS update screen, Screen 300, the Update
Plant General screen. Key data for each record type -in this example the five character compliance
plant identifier- are displayed on the top of each screen above the single hash lines. Mandatory data
elements for the record type, such as plant name and street address, are marked with an *.

Upon accessing an update screen the cursor will rest on the first character of the first data
field. If all characters in the data field are filled, the cursor will automatically jump to the first
character of the next data field. For data fields that are not completely filled, or not of interest, the
use of the TAB key will jump the cursor to the first character of successive data fields. The use of
< enter > will commit the data as specified to the AFS database. Should mandatory data be omitted
on the screen, or a coded value used that does not meet the AFS edit requirements, an error message
will appear on the top of the screen (Figure 2-2), and the cursor will be automatically placed on the
first character of the first data field containing an error or omission. Only by correcting the error can
the data be updated to AFS, and the command accepted.

2.4 Batch Update
Users updating data via the AFS batch transaction update method create transactions in a
dataset separate from AFS and submit them for processing via the AFS Batch Submittal Utility. Each
AFS record type has its own associated transaction type, but the rules of operation for batch
transactions are the same regardless of transaction type.
Each AFS batch transaction type is 80 characters long with multiple sequence numbers being
used for those record types containing more than 80 characters. For example, in AFS Plant General
batch updating, users employ Transaction Type 10. Transaction 10, sequence 1 represents the first
80 characters of the Plant General record, Transaction Type 10, sequence 2 represents the second
80 characters, and so on, up to Transaction Type 10, sequence 9, which completes the plant general
record. Figures 2-3a and 2-3b represent the AFS Batch Coding form for Transaction Type 10,
showing all AFS Plant General Data elements as arrayed across the nine Transaction Type 10
sequence numbers.
In addition to the standard 80 column width, certain standard data elements must appear on
each AFS batch transaction, regardless of transaction type. These common elements allow the
system to identify certain things that must be known for each update, such as the identity of
facility, record to be updated, and type of update. These elements are:
Data Elements: State (Columns 1-2)
County (Columns 3-5)
Plant ID (Columns 6-10)
Transaction Type (Columns 11-12)
Sequence Number (Column 13)
Update Code (Column 80)

AIRS User's Guide
AF2 AFS Data Codino
Update codes applicable to updating in batch are "A" (add new records) and "C" (change
existing records). All of these common data elements are mandatory for each AFS Batch
transaction. Common elements and their associated error messages are further defined in
section 3.0.
2.5 Coded Values
Many of the data fields in AFS utilize coded values, allowing users to employ
alphanumeric characters to represent lengthier data values and descriptions. In most cases,
data fields containing AFS coded values are edit-validated to compare entered data with
acceptable coded values as contained on the AFS and AIRS Geo-Common Table Files. AFS
has an online "Help" feature with which users can review and retrieve any coded value
applicable in AFS. By placing a "?" in the first position of any data field requiring a coded
value, and , user will be shown a full screen(s) listing all coded values, with
exceptions applicable to that field. Users may select a value from the list by tabbing down
next to the desired value, and < enter >, which returns user to the update screen with the
selected values placed in the data field. Some AFS data fields are available for user-defined
codes, and consequently contain no data edit checking.
All coded values validated on AFS and AIRS Geo-Common Table Files will generate
code descriptions on the applicable AFS Browse record screen, and as requested in AFS Ad
Hoc reporting.
2.6 Dates
AFS update processing utilizes the entry of six character dates in the format 'Year-
Year, Month-Month, Day-Day', for Year/Month/Day dates, and 'Year-Year, Month-Month' for
Year/Month dating.
2.7 Alphanumerics and Numerics
Each AFS data element is defined as to whether it utilizes numerics (numbers only),
alphabetics (letters only) or alphanumerics (numbers and letters together). The attempted
entry of improper formats will result in an on-line error message in AFS Update mode, and an
AFS Transaction Error rejection error message on the nightly batch processing update report
for transactions submitted in batch.
November 1993 2-13 Overview
-------
AIRS User's Guide
AFS Data Coding AF2
2.8 Ranges
Certain data fields in AFS are validated for data ranges. The attempted entry of data
outside an edited range will result in an on-line error message in AFS Update mode, and an
AFS Transaction Error rejection error message on the nightly batch processing update report
for transactions submitted in batch.
2.9 Batch Transaction Error Rejections
The rejection of any transaction-sequence results in the rejection of the entire
transaction when processed in AFS batch update mode. Additionally, batch users should also
recall that the rejection of one transaction in the batch may result in the rejection of other
associated transactions, depending on the nature of the first rejected transaction. For
example, the rejection of a Plant-Add transaction will result in the rejection of all other
transactions in the batch associated with the plant, since without the plant being added to the
database the other records for that plant will have no place to be added. This rejection of
subsequent transactions is not based on their order in the transaction file, rather it is based
on the relationship between the first rejected transaction and all subsequent ones.
Consequently, the rejection of a Stack-Add will not result in the rejection of a Point Comment-
Add transaction for the same plant that appears later in the dataset, since there is no data
relationship between a stack and a point comment record.

4.1 Update AFS Inventory SIP
The Inventory SIP information is entered either by selecting option 11 from the AFS Utility
Menu or submitting batch transaction types 00 and 07. The Inventory SIP information is used
to track the review status of a SIP inventory. Fields 4.1.1 thru 4.1.12 define the inventory.
These data were loaded into the Inventory SIP file in August for the 1990 Base SIP inventory
programs. Plants subject to the 25 mile Radius requirement must be entered individually by
the user. Subsequent inventories for inventory types such as Recent Further Progress (RFP)
or Modeling, base inventories for years other than 90 or other SIP programs will need to be
user defined using the SIP Inventory Utility or batch transactions. Once the inventory has
been defined, the review tracking information is entered. The state or designated regional
person indicates that the inventory data being tracked has been entered and is available for
review. When an inventory is being reviewed or approved by Headquarters, the SIP emissions
inventory data is unavailable for update. SIP inventory information are considered draft until
the inventory is approved by headquarters. Draft Inventory data may only be retrieved by
state and regional personnel.

4.5 Update AFS Plant Air Program
The AFS Plant Air Program record supports the tracking of compliance data for the
plant as it pertains to various regulatory air programs. This record also contains values for
State/EPA plant classification and compliance that "bubble-up" from worst-case values input
on the Plant Pollutant Air Program record. At least one Plant Air Program record is required
to add a compliance facility to AFS.
Common Data Reid
•^
The data field AIR PROGRAM CODE serves as the common data element to associate
all AFS Plant Air Program fields and therefore must be referenced in all online and batch
update transactions. Each plant identified in AFS has been predetermined to be a source that
may significantly affect air quality. Therefore, a facility is subject to one or more regulatory
plans or air programs designating emission standards and procedures which assist in the
effective enforcement of the Clean Air Act (CAA). Consequently, this field is required when
entering compliance information and serves as a common field to identify other data elements
which describe the same air program.
4.5.1 AIR PROGRAM CODE
AIR PROGRAM CODE is a one-character code used to identify:
1) The regulatory air program(s) to which a plant is subject.
2) The regulatory air program(s) authorizing and associated with an
enforcement action taken by a local state or federal regulatory agency.

4.6 Update AFS Plant Pollutant Air Program
The AFS Plant Pollutant Air Program record maintains data associated with specific plant
level pollutants as they are measured against applicable plant air programs. At least one plant
pollutant air program record is required for each regulatory plant air program maintained for
an AFS compliance facility.
4.6.1 Common Data Reid
The data field AIR PROGRAM CODE serves as the common data element to associate all
AFS Plant Pollutant Air Program fields and therefore must be referenced in all online and batch
update transactions. Each plant identified in AFS has been predetermined to be a source that
may significantly affect air quality. Therefore, a facility is subject to one or more regulatory
plans or air programs designating emission standards and procedures which assist in the
effective enforcement of the Clean Air Act (CAA). Consequently, this field is required when
entering plant pollutant compliance information since it serves as a common field to identify
other pollutants regulated under the air program.
4.6.1.1 AIR PROGRAM CODE
AIR PROGRAM CODE is a one-character code used to identify:
1) The regulatory air program(s) to which a plant is subject.
2) The regulatory air program(s) authorizing and associated with an
enforcement action taken by a local state or federal regulatory agency.

4.10 Update AFS Plant Comment
AFS comment supports the maintenance of up to 240 characters of comment information
pertaining to the plant. Through the use of the comment "emissions/compliance" indentifier,
specific comments can be designated as applicable (and owned) by emissions or compliance
users.
Common Data Field
In cases where the comment information describes a particular aspect of a previously
identified compliance activity, the data fields ACTION NUMBER and COMMENT NUMBER
serve as the common data elements to associate all AFS Plant Air Comment fields and
therefore must be referenced in all batch update transactions.
Otherwise, in the case of general comments (those not related to a previously identified
compliance activity), the data field COMMENT NUMBER serves as the common data element
to associate all AFS Plant Air Comment fields and therefore must be referenced in all batch
update transactions.

6.0 Point Level Transactions
The AFS Point Level allows compliance users to track many compliance issues and
programs similar to those maintained for the plant. AFS requires air program and pollutant
records to exist at the plant level before they can be tracked at subsidiary points, however,
with the exception that air programs and pollutants must exist at the plant level, the values
entered at the point level are not validated for consistency against their plant-level
counterparts.
AFS maintains compliance and emissions data pertaining to points within facilities
monitored by EPA and State agencies under each agency's compliance and emission inventory
programs. Point level data provide information about the point as a whole, such as its
description, overall compliance status, regulated pollutants, emission inventory values, tank
data, continuous emissions and monitor data, and comments. Point level online screens and
batch update transactions are used to update record-specific data fields. The online screens,

AFS Data Coding AF2
6.1 Update AFS Point General
The AFS Point General record supports input and tracking of general descriptive and
operational data about emissions and process points within a facility. Point general records
must be established in AFS before subsidiary data records in the point can be added to the
database. Through the compliance/emissions identifier, users may maintain separate records
for emissions, compliance and/or merged plants within a facility. The input of
compliance/emissions indicators 'c', 'e' or 'm' will result in the display of the different update
screens for the point general record.
In AFS, all segments must be associated to an emission point. Consequently, when adding
an emission or merged point to AFS, users must simultaneously add at least one segment
general record for the point, or the point will not be added to AFS. Similarly, no new
segments can be added to AFS without being associated to an existing or simultaneously
added point. Online users upon completing the key and mandatory data requirements of
screen 330 (Point General) will automatically be taken to Screen 340 (Segment General)
which upon completion will simultaneously add a point and associated segment to the
database. Batch update users must remember to add both a Point General (Transaction type
30) and Segment General (Transaction type 40) in the same batch, or the segment will not
be successfully added.
6.1.1 Common Data Fields

through reductions of the annual emissions of sulfur dioxides and nitrogen
oxides by requiring compliance with prescribed emission limitations.
Source regulated by Native American Implementation Plan on Tribal Land. The
source is not covered under State or Federal Implementation Plans. This does
not indicate ownership by a Native American Nation, nor that the source is

State Implementation Plan - The Clean Air Act appoints the primary
responsibility for meeting air quality standards to the states. A SIP is an EPA
approved set of control measures and strategies which are implemented to
meet federal air quality standards.
Chlorofluorocarbons - The Clean Air Act contains amendments which require
the tracking and control of CFCs as a means towards minimizing stratospheric
ozone depletion and global warming.
Prevention of Significant Deterioration - A set of requirements designated for
regions which currently meet existing air quality standards. These criteria are
applicable to new major sources and major modifications to sources.
New Source Review - A set of requirements designated for regions which are
currently in nonattainment of existing air quality standards. These criteria are

Acid Precipitation is defined under Title 4 of The Clean Air Act, as released in
1990. The purpose of Title 4 is to reduce adverse affects of acid deposition
through reductions of the annual emissions of sulfur dioxides and nitrogen
oxides by requiring compliance with prescribed emission limitations.
Source regulated by Native American Implementation Plan on Tribal Land. The
source is not covered under State or Federal Implementation Plans. This does
not indicate ownership by a Native American Nation, nor that the source is
privately owned under the jurisdiction of the Native American Nation.
State Implementation Plan - The Clean Air Act appoints the primary
responsibility for meeting air quality standards to the states. A SIP is an EPA
approved set of control measures and strategies which are implemented to
meet federal air quality standards.
Chlorofluorocarbons - The Clean Air Act contains amendments which require
the tracking and control of CFCs as a means towards minimizing stratospheric
ozone depletion and global warming.
Prevention of Significant Deterioration - A set of requirements designated for
regions which currently meet existing air quality standards. These criteria are
applicable to new major sources and major modifications to sources.
New Source Review - A set of requirements designated for regions which are
currently in nonattainment of existing air quality standards. These criteria are
applicable to new major sources and major modifications to sources.
National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants - EPA standards
especially for hazardous air pollutants.
New Source Performance Standards require that all new industrial plants and
major modifications to existing sources meet rigorous requirements which
demonstrate the best achievable control technology.

through reductions of the annual emissions of sulfur dioxides and nitrogen
oxides by requiring compliance with prescribed emission limitations.
Source regulated by Native American Implementation Plan on Tribal Land. The
source is not covered under State or Federal Implementation Plans. This does
not indicate ownership by a Native American Nation, nor that the source is
privately owned under the jurisdiction of the Native American Nation.
State Implementation Plan - The Clean Air Act appoints the primary
responsibility for meeting air quality standards to the states. A SIP is an EPA
approved set of control measures and strategies which are implemented to
meet federal air quality standards.
Chlorofluorocarbons - The Clean Air Act contains amendments which require
the tracking and control of CFCs as a means towards minimizing stratospheric
ozone depletion and global warming.
Prevention of Significant Deterioration - A set of requirements designated for
regions which currently meet existing air quality standards/ These criteria are
applicable to new major sources and major modifications to sources.
New Source Review - A set of requirements designated for regions which are
currently in nonattainment of existing air quality standards. These criteria are
applicable to new major sources and major modifications to sources.

7.0 Segment Level Transactions
AFS maintains emissions data pertaining to processes, defined by eight-character source
classification codes, within facilities monitored by EPA and State agencies under each
agency's emission inventory programs. Segment level data provide information about the
process, such as its type, description, process rate, control equipment and efficiency,
inventoried pollutants, pollutant chemical composition, and comments. Segment level online
screens and batch update transactions are used to update record-specific data fields. In AFS,
all segments must be associated to an emissions point. Consequently, when adding an
emissions or merged point to AFS, users must simultaneously add at least one segment
general record for the point or the point won't be added to AFS. Similarly, no new segments
can be added to AFS without being associated to an existing or simultaneously added point.
Online users, upon completing the key and mandatory data requirements of screen 330 (Plant
General) will automatically be taken to screen 340 (Segment General) which upon completion
will simultaneously add a point and associated segment to the database. Batch update users
must remember to add both a Point General (transaction type 30) and Segment General
(transaction type 40) in the same batch, or the segment will not be successfully added.

7.2 Update AFS Segment General
Users may identify the physical parameters associated with the segment/process by using the
segment general record. As an option, users may associate a segment with an existing AFS
stack, indicating the segment's emissions are venting through the stack. Because not all
segments associated with a point (the generator within a generator hole, for example) may
not vent through the same stack, points are not directly tied to stacks in AFS; rather points
which have all segments vented to the same stack are "implied" to be associated with the
stack.
7.2.1 STACK ID
STACK ID is a number used to identify stacks within a plant. As an option, users may
associate an existing stack number to a segment. This provides a means to aggregate
segments level information to associated stacks. The segment-to-stack link is used to:
1) Define which points vent entirely through a particular stack by associating stack
numbers to all segments associated to a point.
2) Illustrate single points venting through multiple stacks by associating different
stack numbers to the various segments associated to a point.
3) Define which segments associated with a point do not vent through stacks, and
are released ambiently.

7.2.2 SOURCE CLASSIFICATION CODE
SOURCE CLASSIFICATION CODE (SCO is an eight-character code which represents a unique
process or function within a source category logically associated with a point of air pollution
emissions. In AFS, any operation that causes air pollution can be represented by one or more
of these segments. Source Classification Codes have associated pollutants and emission
factors for pollutants resulting from the pollutant process. These values are maintained in the
AP-42 Table in AFS. The SCC is used by AFS to access the proper pollutant and emission
factor values used by AFS when automatically calculating pollutant emissions.
Attributes: 8 digit code

7.3.3 EMISSIONS
EMISSIONS is the value, used in conjunction with the Decimal position, which has been
estimated or calculated to represent the amount of emissions for a given pollutant as a result
of a process defined for a segment.
Attributes: 7 digit
Required for each EMISSIONS TYPE entered.
Coding Instructions:
Estimated Emissions Values can be input directly by key users after a calculation is made
externally to AFS. The method of calculation is indicated in the estimated emission method
code. AFS will calculate estimated emissions using user supplied variables and AP-Y2
emission factors (or user-supplied emission factors) when the appropriate method code is
input. The formula used when AFS performs the calculation is:
PR'EE'FP * 1 - CE * RE
EE = Pounds per ton 100 100
WHERE:
EE = estimated emissions
PR = annual fuel process rate
EF = emissions factor
FP = fuel parameter
CE = control equipment efficiency percent
RE = rule effeceiveness percent
Segment estimated emissions are aggregated in AFS and automatically displayed at the point,
stack (when segments are associated to a stack) and plant levels. Segment values which are
entered in hourly units are aggregated at an assumed 24 hour operation schedule. This must
be considered when entering the hourly values in order to ensure aggregations equal expected
point, stack and plant values.

9.0 Other Coding Support Features
AFS offers a variety of features useful to users in the coding and updating of the database.
9.1 BROWSE
Browse allows users to review online the data in the database, and to determine if data
need to be added, changed or deleted. Users utilize browse screens to select either specific
records -as identified by key data- or common groupings of records. Selected records are
presented on screens containing the same data elements as their online update counterparts,
with the addition in browse of descriptions of all coded values contained on the record.
Browse presents records in keeping with online update structure of AFS: screens are
organized by plant, stack, point and segment levels, and are accessed through browse menus
comparable to those used to access online update screens.
Browse is accessed from selection 2 of the AFS Main Menu. After specifying the plant
of interest in the plant ID screen, users will then be presented with the Browse Menu (Figure
9.1), from which the plant, stack, point or segment level of data may be selected. The level
selection takes the user to the menu appropriate for that level. Figure 9.2 presents the
Browse Plant Information menu. Users may specify which type of plant records they want,
either by entering the menu selection in the "Enter Menu Selection" field, or by entering the
appropriate browse screen number in the "Next Screen" field. Browse screen numbers are
displayed in brackets next to each record type menu selection. •
Once the record type or browse screen is entered, users will be presented with a
selection screen appropriate for the record. Browse selection screens allow users to identify
specific, category or all records. Figure 9.3, the selection screen for Browse Plant Air
Program Pollutant information illustrates the function of browse selection screens:
Specific records are selected by entering key data for the record. In Figure 9.3,
entering the air program code '0' and pollutant code 'PT' in the indicated fields
will retrieve only the plant pollutant record for total particulate matter ('PT') as
measured under the State Implementation Plan air program CO').
Categories of records are selected by indicating a category appropriate to the
record type. By indicating air program code '0' in the browse air program
pollutant selection screen (Figure 9.3), all plant pollutant records associated
with that air program will be displayed.
All records of the type selected from the level menu can be retrieved by
entering no selection criteria in the browse selection screen.

AFS Data Coding AF2
If no records are found on the database, users will be returned from the selection
screen to the menu from which they specified the record type. Multiple records are displayed
one at a time. Users may scroll through them by hitting < enter>, PF8 (page forward) or PF7
(page back). Following the display of the last record found, users will be returned to the
initiating menu.
Browse also supports a plant summary screen, on which is displayed tallies of certain
types of records and other data of general interest about the plant. Figure 9.4 displays a plant
summary screen, which can be generated by selecting option 11 from the Browse Plant
Information screen, or entering '509' in the Next Screen field on that menu.
9.2 HELP FUNCTION
AFS offers users an online Help function. By placing a "?" in the first character of any
AFS update, browse or reports data field, users will be shown a screen explaining the data
field's definition and use, and all coded values appropriate for the data field. Users may
select a desired value from the displayed list by tabbing down to the value and ,
which will return the user to the update, browse or reports screen with the selected value
automatically filled in the data field.
9.3 DELETING DATA
AFS data may be deleted through the use of an online utility or the submittal of batch
transactions with an update code of "0". Regardless of the method used to effect a delete,
users must be aware of the potential for multiple-record deletions due to the associations of
records in the AFS hierarchical data structure. For example, users specifying the deletion of
a specific point general record must realize that all records associated with that point - such
as point actions, point pollutants and point comments- will also be deleted through the
deletion of the primary point record. Additionally, deletions of specific records that are used
in aggregating formulas, such as segment pollutants (which aggregate to point and plant
pollutant levels), will result in both the deletion of the record from the database and its
contribution to the aggregating formula.

9.3.1 DELETING DATA ONLINE
Users may delete data online through the use of the AFS delete utility. AFS utilities are
accessed from selection 4 of the AFS Main Menu, which presents the user with the Utility
Selection Menu (Figure 9.4). Selecting "Delete Information", will bring the user to the delete
menu, where the level of deletion is identified (plant, stack, point, segment).
The delete utility allows users to specify the deletion of a plant, a category of records
within the plant, or a specific record. Figure 9.5 represents the delete plant level information
screen. To delete all records for a plant, enter the CDS or NEDS plant ID in the appropriate
field. To delete a category of records, such as all 1989 inventory year data, enter the plant
ID and '89'in the appropriate fields. To delete a specific record, such as a comment tied to
an action, enter the plant ID, action number and action comment number in the appropriate
fields. When the data are entered, the user will be returned to the utility selection menu.
To delete specific fields, access the update screen for the data field, blank out the field
and < enter >. Specific field deletions will only work on non-key or mandatory fields.
Because of the complex processing associated with deleting AFS data from the
database, deletions are batch-processed each night. Users will receive confirmation of
deletions through the batch processing utility report issued daily to each user of a batch
process.

9.3.2 DELETING DATA THROUGH BATCH TRANSACTIONS
Batch users of AFS may also delete data through the submittal of batch transactions
with the following characteristics:
Plant deletions are performed by entering the state, county and plant ID on a
transaction 10, sequence 1 card, and an update code of 'D'. All records
associated with the plant will be deleted.
Category/record deletions are performed by entering the state, county, plant ID,
transaction type, sequence type and key data for the category record, and an
update code of 'D'. Both the individual record identified by the key fields and
all associated records will be deleted.
Data Field deletions are performed by entering the state, county, plant ID,
transaction type, sequence type, and key data for the record, an '*' in the first
character of the field to be deleted, and an update code of 'C'.
Users will receive confirmation of deletions through the batch processing utility report issued
daily to each user of a batch process.
9.4 UNDELETE
AFS allows users to cancel deletion commands that have not yet been processed in
that night's batch update processing. Undelete is accessed from selection 4 of the AFS utility
menu (Figure 9.4). This selection will present users with a list of all deletion commands
awaiting nightly batch processing (Figure 9.7). They may cancel a command by .entering the
number of the command displayed on the left-most column of the screen.
9.5 MERGING PLANTS
AFS supports the online merging of plants in the database through the use of the
Merge Plants (Association) utility selection. Facilities in AFS are identified by their state and
county codes, plus their compliance and or emissions plant ID. Because of historical
separation between compliance and emissions databases and user groups, the same facility
may be tracked as separate entities within AFS, each with the unique plant ID assigned by
each type of user. Consequently, the same facility can be tracked in AFS with an emissions
ID, and several compliance IDs unique to different regulatory programs. In those cases, much
of the data maintained on the database is redundant, such as general plant information.
Association eliminates redundant records, and stores unique records end data as identified by

unique key data identifying each record.
Online plant merging is available through the Utility Selection Menu. AFS supports the
association of compliance plants - which stores all compliance records under one common
plant general record - and compliance and emissions plants -which stores compliance and
emissions records under one common plant general record.
To associate plants, enter the state code, county code and compliance and emissions
plant IDs in the indicated fields. Plants to be associateded must have the same state and
county codes. Because of the large amount of processing required to perform an association,
this function is processed during that evening's batch processing. Users will receive
confirmation through the batch processing utility report issued daily to each user of a batch
process.
9.6 UNMERGING PLANTS
AFS will support the unmerging of compliance to emissions plants for a period of
ninety days following a compliance to emissions plant merge. The Unmerge Plants function
is accessed from the AFS Utility menu. To unmerge plants, enter the state code, county code
and plant ID for the compliance and emissions plants to be unmerged. Plants to be unmerged
must exist on the merged plant holding file in AFS, that retains the emissions plant general
data removed from the online database during the merge. These data are removed from the
file ninety days after the merge is processed. The unmerging of compliance to compliance
merges is not supported in AFS.
Users will receive confirmation of unmerges through the batch processing utility report issued
daily to each user of a batch process.
9.7 MERGING POINTS
AFS supports the online and batch merging of point level information through the use
of the Merge Points utility selection. The facility whose points are to be merged must be
identified by the state, county and compliance or emissions plant ID. The point number that
is entered first on the screen or in the batch card will become the point number identification
for the merged point and will have a compliance emission identifier of "M".
When a "C" and "E" point are to be merged, "E's" fields will be moved to "C's" record and
the compliance emission identifier of "C" will be changed to an "M". If the user only has an
"E" point for their facility and has the need to add compliance information for the point, the
"E" point can be merged to a non-existing "C" point. The "E" point description will be placed
in the description field; and if no "E" description exists, the default description of "CREATED
FROM MERGE" will be provided.
Other Features 9-6 September 1992

Because of the large amount of processing required to perform a merge, merges are processed
during that evening's batch processing. Users will receive confirmation of merges through
the batch processing utility report issued daily to each user of the batch process.
9.8 SOURCE SWAP
AFS Source Swap allows users to change the compliance or emissions plant ID for
plants stored in the database. Figure 9.10 displays the Source Swap screen, which is
accessed from the AFS Utility menu. To swap plant IDs, enter the state code, county code
and compliance and emissions plant IDs in the indicated fields.
Plants to be swapped must have the same state and county codes.
Because of the large amount of processing required to perform a source swap, they are
processed during that evening's batch processing. All records in the database possessing the
old plant ID will have the new ID written to them, and the old ID will be eliminated.
Users will receive confirmation of source swaps through the batch processing utility
report issued daily to each user of a batch process.
