Data Summaries
The data posted at this site will include only the latest version of the 2011 NEI. This webpage should not be used as a reference for past versions of the NEI and users wanting a record of data used in their analysis should archive and document those inventories to meet their own archival needs. Users should not assume that the data posted on this site will stay the same as the data they use at a given point time.
The full detail data files for the Point, Onroad, Nonroad and Nonpoint data categories can be downloaded from the list below. Please note these files are larger than previous inventories and can be linked in Access if importing fails. These SCC data files do not include “events” data -wildfires and prescribed burning emissions. The events data can be found at the “Prescribed/Wildfires by Pollutant” link below under “Other Emissions Summaries”. To obtain a complete inventory total, please include these data in addition to the 4 SCC data files provided here.
- Point (ZIP CSV) (514.0 MB)
- Onroad (ZIP CSV) (43.8 MB)
- Nonroad (ZIP CSV) (317.0 MB)
- Nonpoint (ZIP CSV) (74.7 MB)

Data Queries

Facility Mapping
The facility query provides a map of facilities for a selected state along with tabular data for the selected pollutant(s). Please note that the map only displays if there are less than 25 pollutants selected. If more than 25 pollutants are selected then only the tabular data will be displayed.
