Table 1 to Appendix A of Subpart A - Emission Thresholds ¹ by Pollutant for Treatment as Point Source Under 40 CFR 51.30
Pollutant	Every-year	Triennial
Pollutant	Type A sources ²	Type B sources	NAA sources ³
(1) SO2	?2500	?100	?100.
			PM2.5 (Serious) ?70.
(2) VOC	?250	?100	?100.
		within OTR ⁴ ?50	within OTR ?50.
			O3 (Serious) ?50.
			O3 (Severe) ?25.
			O3 (Extreme) ?10.
			PM2.5 (Serious) ?70.
(3) NOX	?2500	?100	?100.
			O3 (Serious) ?50.
			O3 (Severe) ?25.
			O3 (Extreme) ?10.
			PM2.5 (Serious) ?70.
(4) CO	?2500	?1000	?1000.
			CO (all areas) ?100.
(5) Lead		?0.5 (actual)	?0.5 (actual).
(6) Primary PM10	?250	?100	?100.
			PM10 (Serious) ?70.
(7) Primary PM2.5	?250	?100	?100.
			PM2.5 (Serious) ?70.
(8) NH3	?250	?100	?100.
			PM2.5 (Serious) ?70.
¹ Thresholds for point source determination shown in tons per year of potential to emit as defined in 40 CFR part 70, with the exception of lead. Reported emissions should be in actual tons emitted for the required time period. ² Type A sources are a subset of the Type B sources and are the larger emitting sources by pollutant. ³ NAA = Nonattainment Area. The point source reporting thresholds vary by attainment status for SO2, VOC, NOX, CO, PM10, PM2.5, and NH3. ⁴ OTR = Ozone Transport Region (see 40 CFR 51.1300(k)).

Data elements
(1) Emissions Year.
(2) State and County FIPS Code or Tribal Code.
(3) Facility Site Identifier.
(4) Unit Identifier.
(5) Emission Process Identifier.
(6) Release Point Identifier.
(7) Facility Site Name.
(8) Physical Address (Location Address, Locality Name, State and Postal Code).
(9) Latitude and Longitude at facility level.
(10) Source Classification Code.
(11) Aircraft Engine Type (where applicable).
(12) Facility Site Status and Year.
(13) Release Point Stack Height and Unit of Measure.
(14) Release Point Stack Diameter and Unit of Measure.
(15) Release Point Exit Gas Temperature and Unit of Measure.
(16) Release Point Exit Gas Velocity or Release Point Exit Gas Flow Rate and Unit of Measure.
(17) Release Point Status and Year.
(18) NAICS at facility level.
(19) Unit Design Capacity and Unit of Measure (for some unit types).
(20) Unit Type.
(21) Unit Status and Year.
(22) Release Point Apportionment Percent.
(23) Release Point Type.

(25) Percent Control Approach Capture Efficiency (where applicable).
(26) Percent Control Measures Reduction Efficiency (where applicable).
(27) Percent Control Approach Effectiveness (where applicable).
¹ Facility Inventory data elements need only be reported once to the EIS and then revised if needed. They do not need to be reported for each triennial or every-year emissions inventory.
