Process Identification Component


This component is used to report process identifiers to the EIS. These include both EIS and Agency identifiers, which are indicated by the Program System Code provided. If you intend to establish a new emissions process identifier or indicate that an emissions process identifier will no longer be used, you may either (1) submit this information using the ProcessIdentification components in your batch report or (2) update the identifier(s) using the EIS Gateway. Alternative identifiers for emissions processes can also be submitted and stored in the EIS.

Emissions Process Alternate identifiers. An emissions process may be known by additional identifiers within your local system(s). These alternate identifiers may be submitted for a emissions process but must be associated with your primary program system code. The same emissions process may have multiple alternate identifiers, but the emissions process must have an active identifier associated with the primary program system code as well as the submitted alternate identifiers.

Alternate identifiers will also be used to "report" alternate identifiers from other EPA systems, such as TRI or FRS. These identifiers are the responsibility of EPA and should not be reported by S/L/T submitters.

Impact of incomplete information or critical errors. If there are critical errors relating to the dates reported, the dates will not be stored; all other data in the record will be accepted.
