emission fee calculations. This analysis can now be executed with a single action, site-wide, in
COMPASS-EI, based on the emissions reported in the EI report.
Calculating Ozone Season Daily Emission Rates – manual procedures formerly used to
determine emissions from CPC Sources during the “ozone season” involved an analysis of
Source operating schedules and the calculation of daily emission rates reflecting warm-weather
emissions. Because operating schedules and year-round emissions are both available in the
COMPASS database, a feature is available that calculates ozone season daily emission rates for
the entire facility with s single selection.
TRI Air Emissions Reporting – certain pollutant emissions from the annual EI report are also
reportable in an annual TRI report that is required by the U.S. EPA. Manual procedures
involved extracting from spreadsheets and other data sources the specific chemical emissions
that are TRI-reportable, and, in some cases, further processing data to determine, for example,
controlled and uncontrolled emissions. COMPASS-EI provides several TRI reports that filter
emissions data from the annual EI report as needed for TRI reporting insofar as air emissions are
concerned (note; other media besides air emissions are required in TRI reports).
Greenhouse Gases (GHG) Emissions Reporting – certain pollutant emissions from the annual EI
report are also reportable in voluntary GHG emissions reports, such as to industry groups.
Manual procedures involved extracting from spreadsheets and other data sources the specific
chemical emissions that are GHG-reportable. COMPASS-EI provides GHG reports that filter
emissions data from the annual EI report as needed for GHG reporting and enables user to
exclude their GHG emissions from the Texas EI report, if they wish to (most facilities refrain
from reporting GHG’s in Texas, and the need to report them is viewed by many as being “open
to interpretation”).
1.3 System Requirements
The following platform is recommended to operate the EI application:
Pentium II PC running at 250 MHz. with 64 megabytes of RAM and 50 megabytes
of free disk space.
The following platform is the minimum required to operate the EI application:
Pentium I PC running at 90 MHz. with 25 megabytes of free disk space and
32megabytes of RAM to obtain reasonable performance.
The following operating systems are supported:
Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows XP or Windows
NT Operating Environment, (all Trademarks acknowledged).
The CONFIG.SYS file should have the file handles set to 60 to run certain DOS
extension programs for the EI program.
Certain Windows control panel settings, such as for Date format, must be in the"
standard” or default position. Also, users may need to modify their Display
properties if all windows and command buttons are not visible in the EI screens.
