State and Local Emissions Inventory System
Agenda
• The SLEIS application is a new system that will enable facilities to electronically report emissions inventory data to the Clean Air Branch (CAB)
• Supports CAB quality assurance of data, and allows direct reporting to U.S. EPA Emissions Inventory System (EIS)
• The SLEIS application will replace the old method of receiving emissions data by CD
• CAB looks forward to working with facility representatives for the transition to SLEIS
State and Local Emissions Inventory System
Introduction
*See Backup Materials
• EPA introduced the new Emissions Inventory System (EIS) for the 2008 reporting year
• Some 20+ state and local air quality management agencies were using a software product, to manage emissions inventory data, based on the previous EPA system
• A consortium of state agencies was formed to develop a new, shared point source emissions inventory system that aligned with EIS
• The State and Local Emissions Inventory System (SLEIS) was developed, and has since been deployed to ~10 state agencies (and growing) and one tribe

Generation
• Enables the regulated community to submit point source emissions inventory data, and related meta-data, to CAB through a public, web-based application
• Provides a secure reporting mechanism (CROMERR-compliant )
• Supports multiple reporting years of emissions inventory data (current and historical)
• Enables CAB to manage, review, and validate the collected data
• Highly customizable, allowing CAB to configure the system to meet their own unique needs
• Manages the generation and submission of required data files to EPA’s EIS from CAB

Data Migration
• Windsor migrated EPA EIS data after CAB submitted 2012 facility emissions inventory reports to EPA
• AERR A facility data in SLEIS is now consistent with the 2012 facility emissions inventory reports
• CAB will make AERR B facility data in SLEIS consistent with 2012 facility emissions inventory reports prior to the beginning of the Official Reporting Period− CAB will provide details on the status of AERR B facility
data during facility registration.− CAB will work with facility representatives to ensure that
AERR B data will support facility needs during the test period
• The SLEIS data migration effort will incorporate 2012 facility data to provide the most updated facility information for 2013 emissions inventory submittals

Training Demonstration
Note: The training sessions will be recorded (audio and video), and will be made available by CAB following the training sessions.

Training Demonstration
BREAK (10 MIN)
• An individual user account must be established for anyone wishing to use SLEIS
• The appropriate form(s) must be completed to register users for each facility they are requesting access to
• Your email address will serve as your user ID to log into SLEIS. Once registered, it cannot be changed. If you change your email address, you must re-register with the new address.
• When your account is created, you will receive an automated email notification with a link to the password setup page
• The registration forms and instructions are available from the SLEIS Homepage at: https://eha-cloud.doh.hawaii.gov/sleis
State and Local Emissions Inventory System
User Registration
• The SLEIS application will be made available for testing from April 24, 2014 to July 31, 2014: Become familiar with the SLEIS application and
review data migrated for your facilities Translate current file format to SLEIS import file
format• Following the testing time period, the database will be
“reset” (any data entered/changed during the test period will be lost)
• CAB expects to open the official reporting period by August 1st, 2014, with a submittal deadline of October 31, 2014. CAB will notify facilities of the official reporting period start, and emission inventory submittal deadline.
• For immediate help with SLEIS, please contact Keith McFall or Mike Madsen at (808) 586-4200 or email [email protected]
