Release Point Apportionment Component


The percentage of emissions from a process can be apportioned to one or more release points. To report the percentage of emissions from a process that is emitted through a specific release point, use the ReleasePointApportionment component. The ReleasePointApportionment component must be a child of an emissions process. The total apportionment for each process must equal 100%. For example, if a fuel combustion process emits through two stacks at a 40% and 60% ratio, you would report two ReleasePointApportionment components, one for 40% and the Release Point Identifier for the first stack and a second for 60% and the Release Point Identifier for the second stack. You may use either the EIS Release Point Identifier or the Agency Release Point Identifier. The release points must exist in the inventory before emissions are apportioned to them and the combination of Release Point and Emissions Process must always be unique.

Most of the initial EIS Facility Inventory data was populated with 100% apportionment for each process. You may update these values using this component or through the EIS Gateway.

A release point apportionment can either be designated as uncontrolled or associated with a site path.

Impact of incomplete information or critical errors. If there are critical errors relating to the emissions percentages, all data in the ReleasePointApportionment components for the emissions process will be rejected.
