GHGRP State Fact Sheet

What is a Facility ID? This is a unique identification number that has been given to each facility subject to the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program. The identification number can be used to track a facility's emissions totals from one year to the next should the facility's name or address change.
What is an FRS ID? An FRS ID (Facility Registry System Identification Number) is a facility identificatoin number. The Facility Registry System is a centrally managed EPA database that identifies facilities, sites, or places subject to environmental regulations or of environmental interest across EPA programs.
What is a NAICS Code? NAICS code stands for North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) code. It is a six-digit code that represents the product, activity, or service at a facility or supplier. The codes are listed in the Federal Register and defined in "North American Industrial Classification Systems Manual 2012," available from the U.S. Department of commerice at http://www.census.gov/eos/www/naics/.
How are biogenic CO₂ emissions accounted for in facility totals? Facilities that burn biogenic materials such as wood are required to report total GHG emissions associated with the combustion of those biogenic materials. This page contains the total biogenic CO₂ emissions reported by each facility. Biogenic emissions are NOT included in the facility's total emissions or in the total emissions by process. Biogenic emissions were mostly commonly reported by electricity generation units, pulp and paper mills, landfills, and other facilities combusting large amounts of fuel.
What's the difference between a "direct emitter" and a "supplier"? Direct emitters are required to report total GHG emissions that take place at their facility from the processes covered by the program. Suppliers of fossil fuel products such as petroleum, natural gas, and industrial gases report the total GHG quantity that would result from the complete combustion, oxidation, or use of the covered products they supply to the economy.
Why are onshore oil and gas production facilities, gathering and boosting facilities, and facilities emitting SF₆ from use in electrical equipment not included with other direct emitters? These types of faciltiies are not traditional point sources of GHGs. Onshore oil and natural gas producers and gathering and boosting facilities report the total GHG emissions from their operations within unique basins identified by the American Association of Petroleum Geologists. Facilities reporting SF₆ emissions from electrical equipment use report the total emissions from electrical transmission and distribution equipment over broad spatial areas. Because some of these facilities can span state lines or encompass a broad geographic area, it would not be appropriate to include them in the list with other direct emitters whose emissions can be attributed to a specific address. For facilities that are both direct emitters and one of these three types, the reported direct emissions are included in this fact sheet and the other emissions in the appropriate data download.
What do facilities engaged in onshore petroleum and natural gas production and gathering and boosting report for their address? Facilities engaged in onshore petroleum and natural gas production and gathering and boosting report aggregated emissions at the basin level. Because of the large geographic size of the basins, these reporters may use the address of the U.S. corporate headquarters, including its street address, city, state, and ZIP Code. To ensure that multiple faciltiies that share the same corporate address can be uniquely identified, EPA asks reporters to specify the code and name of th basin as identified by the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (e.g., MLH Production Inc. 470 Fort Worth Syncline) in the facility name. As a result, the address, city, and state associated with these reporters will not necessarily be in close proximity to the location where reported emissions occur.
How are transmission pipeline and local distribution company direct emissions included in this fact sheet?Transmission pipelines report aggregated pipeline blwodown GHG emissions nationally (and for each state) in which they operate. Local distribution companies report the total GHG emissions that take place over their entire distribution system, within a state. These emissions have been allocated to the appropriate state as part of the direct emissions summarized in this fact sheet.
