|| Subpart || Description || Possible   Workaround ||
| All | All   references to "SubPart" should be spelled "Subpart". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| A | The   enumerated values for data element "StateCode" are missing.  In addition there is an  extra hierarchical level between the data   element and its parent "LocationAddress".  It should be removed to reduce the schema's   structural  complexity. | Report   one of the following values for the "StateCode": \\
\\
AB, AK, AL, AR, AS, AZ, BC, CA , CO, CT, DC, DE FL, GA, GU, HI, IA, ID, IL,   IN, KS, KY, LA, MA MB, MD, ME, MH, MI, MN, MO, MP, MS, MT, NB, NC ND, NE, NF,   NH, NJ, NM, NN, NS, NT, NU, NV, NY OH, OK , ON, OR , PA, PE, PR, PW, QC, RI,   SC, SD,  SK, TN, TX, UT, VA, VI, VT,   WA, WI, WV, WY, YT, XX. |
| A | Data   element "AddressPostalCodeContext" is mislabeled. The term   "Context" should be removed. | Internal |
| A | There   is an extra hierarchical level between the data element and its parent   "LocationAddress".  It should   be removed to reduce the schema's structural complexity. | Internal |
| A | On   the Uploaded Annual Report Summary screen, the reference "CO2   (Nonbiogenic Carbon dioxide C-JJ)" contains a missing   "e".  It should be displayed   as "CO2 (Nonbiogenic Carbon dioxide C-JJ)".  We removed the "e" for biogenic   CO2 but should have kept it for nonbiogenic references. | e-GGRT   ISSUE |
| C | Data   element "OtherUnitName" is mislabeled. | This   data element is actually associated with data element, "UnitType",   not "UnitName".  \\
\\
If the type of unit you are reporting is not included in the list of   enumerated values, then for data element "UnitType", report value   "OCS (Other combustion source)", and then for data element   "OtherUnitName", specify the unit type used.  |
| C | Background:  Reporters indicating the combustion of a "Tier 2 (Equation   C-2a)" fuel are required to indicate, on a monthly basis, if substituted   values were used in determining the HHV for each fuel. Secondly, they are   required to report the frequency of HHV determinations.  However, these two requirements do not   apply to reporters that indicate the combustion of municipal solid   waste,  "Tier 2 (Equation C-2c)". \\
\\
Issue: In e-GGRT,   when a reporter selects a fuel that is applicable to Tier 2 (Equation C-2c),   the e-GGRT-generated XML file includes values for "Tier2MonthlyHHVDetails"   data elements, all with "N" for "IsSubstitutedIndicator".  It does not include a value for data   element "FrequencyofHighHeatValueDetermination".  (It should not include either data   element.) | e-GGRT   ISSUE |
| E | The   calculation spreadsheet for subpart E contains a locked cell that shouldn't   be.  Cell C24 refers to the following   questions, "Are N2O emissions estimated using an administrator-approved   alternate method or one or more adipic acid production units?".  Because the cell is write-protected, users   are unable to select an answer (yes or no) from the dropdown.  In addition, there is logic built in to   that cell so that when an answer is entered, the cells located directly   beneath it are revealed. | e-GGRT   ISSUE |
| E | There   is a typo in the label for data element   "NumberOfTypesofAbatementTechnology".  The word "Technology" should be   pluralized. | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| E | The   label for data element   "AlternativeMethodNitrousOxideDeterminationDetails" is   unnecessarily long.  The term   "NitrousOxide" should be replaced by "N2O". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| G | The   XML schema is inconsistent with e-GGRT regarding   ("FeedstockType").  In   e-GGRT, a reporter is restricted from selecting more than one type of   feedstock (gaseous, liquid or solid) per non-CEMS unit.  The XML schema does not have this   restriction for non-CEMS units.  For   the same non-CEMS unit, a reporter can indicate that all three types of   feedstocks were used for a given month, and then only one or two for a   different month.   This issue exists   because the data element is placed at wrong location within the schema   hierarchy.  It has to be relocated to   the same level as the non-CEMS Unit Identification. | Do   not report more than one type of feedstock per non-CEMS unit.  This means that the the same value   (gaseous, liquid or solid) must be used    for every month reported. |
| H | The   e-GGRT rollup-emissions calculation should but doesn't include the annual CO2   process emissions from cement manufacturing, calculated from Equation H-1 for   all kilns, and rounded to one decimal place.     See rollup requirement #23. | e-GGRT   ISSUE |
| H | The   label for data element "FractionNonCalcined \\
CalciumOxideInCementKilnDustNotRecycled" is unnecessarily long.  The term "CalciumOxide" should be   replaced by "CaO". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| H | The   label for data element "FractionNonCalcined \\
MagnesiumOxideInCementKilnDustNotRecycled" is unnecessarily long.  The term "MagnesiumOxide" should   be replaced by "MgO". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| H | The   e-GGRT rollup-emissions calculation should but doesn't include the annual CO2   process emissions from cement manufacturing, calculated from Equation H-1 for   all kilns, and rounded to one decimal place.     See rollup requirement #23. | e-GGRT   ISSUE |
| K | The   label for data element "TotalNumberofElectricArcFurnace" is missing   an "s" on the end of "Furnace". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| N | MRR   reference \[98.146(a)(1) and (b)(2)\] specifies that the unit of measure   (massUOM) for data element    "InputQuantitytoAllFurnaces" is Short  Tons. \\
\\
However, when data is entered in e-GGRT for "Annual quantity of   carbonate-based raw materials charged across all furnaces" on the   "N-Facility" page in tons (meaning short tons), the  e-GGRT generated XML file displays the   units as Metric Tons. | e-GGRT   ISSUE |
| N | Data   element "MassFractionSampleDescription" is not captured in e-GGRT   nor referenced in the rule.  It is   required in the schema. | If   reporting the mass fraction of each test sample analyzed, you must also   report the  description of the sample. |
| N | The   label for data element "CarbonateType" does not adequately reflect   the data it represents.  It should be   relabeled to "CarbonateRawMaterialType" for consistency with   e-GGRT. | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| N | The   label for data element   "NumberofTimesMissingDataProceduresUsedforCarbonateBasedMineralMassFraction"   is unnecessarily too long.  It should   be shortened. | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| O | Data   element "HCFC22ProducedDetails" is mislabeled.  It should be relabeled to   "HCFC22ProductionDetails". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| O | The   label for data element "MassOtherMaterials \\
Removed" does not adequately reflect the data it represents.  It should be relabeled to   "CombinedMassOtherMaterialsRemoved" for greater clarity. | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| O | The   label for data element "AnnualMassHFC23FedtoDesctruction" contains   a typo.  The word   "Destruction" is misspelled. | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| O | The   label for data element "AnnualMassHFC23EmittedfromDesctruction"   contains a typo.  The word   "Destruction" is misspelled. | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| P | The   label for data element "QuantityOfNonCarbonCO2CollectedTransferred"   does not adequately describe the data it represents.  It should be relabeled to   "QuantityOfNonCO2CarbonCollectedTransferred" to avoid ambiguity and   to be consistent with e-GGRT. | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| Q | The   label for data element "CemsIronSteelDetails" contains a typo.  The term "Cems" should be spelled   in all CAPS because it is an acronym. | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| Q | The   number of times that the performance test was repeated is not captured in   e-GGRT.  The corresponding data element   should be removed from the schema. | Do   not report a value for the number of times performance test were repeated. |
| Q | Data   element "MoltenSteelCarbonContentBasis" appears to be redundant of   "BasisforCarbonContent". | Do   not report a value for this data element. |
| Q | The   label for data element  data element   "CarbonBalanceInputOutDetails" does not adequately reflect the data   it represents.  It should be relabeled   to "CarbonMassBalanceMethod".    At the very least, the typo in name should be correct.  The term "Out" should be replaced   with "Output". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| Q | The   label for data element "MeasurementPeriod" does not adequately   describe the data reported.  It should   be relabeled to "MeasurementFrequency" to avoid ambiguity and to be   consistent with e-GGRT. | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| Q | Because   of the schema's design, facilities reporting emissions for CEMS units have to   report the same unit identification data in two separate places within their   XML file. This redundancy introduces the risk of mismatching unit data. | Until   this information is consolidated within the schema, please verify the unit   information reported under CEMSDetails matches a unit reported under the   non-CEMS UnitDetails section of the schema. |
| R | The   label for data element "MaterialType" does not adequately reflect   the data it represents.  It should be   relabeled to "FeedstockType" for more consistency with the e-GGRT   (spreadsheet). | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| R | The   label for data element "OtherMaterialType" does not adequately   reflect the data it represents.  It   should be relabeled to "OtherFeedstockType" for more consistency   with the e-GGRT (spreadsheet). | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| V | Data   element "NumberRepeatPerformanceTest" should be reported only once   per facility because it represents the total number of performance tests   conducted at the site. In contrast, a separate "TestMethod" record   should be reported for each performance test conducted.  The two of these data elements should be   not placed at the same level within the schema hierarchy. | If   reporting multiple performance tests, report the number of repeated   performance test in the first instance and only specify the test method used   for the remaining instances. |
| X | MRR   98.256 (q) specifies that one or more methods for determining the annual   average CO2 concentration can be reported, but only one is allowed using the   schema via the data element,   "AnnualAverageCarbonDioxideConcentrationMethod". | If   you used multiple methods, report "Other (specify)" for the data   element, and then for the data element    "OtherAnnualAverageCarbon \\
DioxideConcentrationMethod", report each method used separated by a   comma. |
| X | MRR   98.256 (q) specifies that one or more methods for determining the annual   average higher heating value can be reported, but only one is allowed using   the schema via data element,   "AnnualAverageHigherHeatingValueMethod". | If   you used multiple methods, then for data element,   "AnnualAverageHigherHeating \\
ValueMethod" report "Other (specify)", and for the data   element "OtherAnnualAverageHigher \\
HeatingValueMethod", report each method used separated by a comma. |
| X | Slip   Stream information that is manually entered into e-GGRT does not appear   within the e-GGRT generated XML file. | e-GGRT   ISSUE |
| X | Data   element "CombustionUnitIDDetails" is not captured in e-GGRT.  This information was replaced by the CML   configuration ID/name, presumably to promote consistency among the various   subparts.  As such, it should be   removed. | Do   not report a value for this data element. |
| X | The   "ProductFeedStockDetails" data element contains somewhat redundant   child elements: "Name" and "Type".   There are enumerated values for data   element "Type" but none for "Name".  In contrast, e-GGRT only references the   Name field  and it has all of the same   enumerated values defined in the schema for "Type".  However, when e-GGRT generates XML, it   populates only the "Name" data element with the selected enumerated   value.  This is a data integrity issue   and e-GGRT should be changed to reflect the schema in this particular case. | Report   the Type as this correctly describes the data captured. |
| X | Some   of the child data elements of "OtherProductFeedStockDetails" are   not grouped in a meaningful way and as a result, and may confuse   reporters.  The MRR states the   following,  "...if the method used   to determine the carbon content or composition is "Industry standard   practice for carbon black", then specify the practice."  \\
\\
In the schema, the data element for "IndustryPracticeDescription"   is positioned above the data element "CarbonContentMethod".  For more consistency with the flow of the   rule, move data element "IndustryPracticeDescription" immediately   below "OtherCarbonContentMethod" | Report   the data element in the order they currently appear within the schema until   this is changed. |
| Y | The   attribute ("fractionUOM" ) for data element   "AnnualAverageMoleFractionofCarbon" is defined as required instead of   optional.  The issue is that the   measured value is conditionally deferred, so it's possible that a reporter is   only reporting NumberofTimesSubstituted, \\
\\
\\ | Report   the unit of measure as "in kg-mole C/kg-mole gas". MRR   98.256(h)(5). \\ |
| Y | All   references to data element "UnControlled" should be spelled as   "Uncontrolled". | Report   the data element as it is defined in the schema, including the typo. |
| Y | All   references to data element "BlowDown" should be spelled as   "Blowdown". | Report   the data element as it is defined in the schema, including the typo. |
| Y | All   references to data element "LeakEmission" should be spelled as  "LeakEmissions". | Report   the data element as it is defined in the schema, including the typo. |
| Y | All   references to data element "UnStabilized" should be spelled as   "Unstabilized". | Report   the data element as it is defined in the schema, including the typo. |
| Y | The   label for data element "SulfurRecoveryPlant \\
Description" does not adequately describe the data reported.  It should be relabeled to   "SulfurRecoveryPlantType" to avoid ambiguity and to be consistent   with e-GGRT. | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| Y | The   label for data element "OtherAnnualVolumeFlowMethod" is missing the   word "Cumulative".  It should   be labeled "OtherCumulativeAnnualVolumeFlowMethod". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| Y | The   following two data elements are redundant:   "isRecycledTailGasIncludedIndicator" and   "TailGasRecycledFlowRateCarbonContent \\
Included". | Report   the same value for both until one of these data elements is removed. |
| Y | The   label for data element "MeasurementPeriod" does not adequately   describe the data reported.  It should   be relabeled to "MeasurementFrequency" to avoid ambiguity and to be   consistent with e-GGRT. | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| Y | The   labels for data element "PercentO2Inlet" do not match what is   displayed in e-GGRT.  As such, it is   difficult to determine which e-GGRT field maps to this data element.   Also it is difficult to determine which   data element correspond to the field | No   workaround |
| Y | Because   of the schema's design, facilities reporting emissions for CEMS units have to   report the same unit identification data in two separate places within their   XML file. This redundancy introduces the risk of mismatching unit data. | Until   this information is consolidated within the schema, please verify the unit   information reported under CEMSDetails matches a unit reported under the   non-CEMS UnitDetails section of the schema. |
| Y | The   values displayed in e-GGRT for data elements   "CH4EmissionsCalculationMethod" and   "N2OEmissionsCalculationMethod" do not exactly match what is   defined within the schema.  The values   displayed in e-GGRT are abbreviated and    easier to read but may confuse direct XML reporters.  For example, value "Equation Y-9"   translates into "Equation Y-9 with a default emission factor" in   the schema.  Such inconsistencies may   cause some users to wonder if these two values are the same? | Report   the value exactly as defined within the schema and not how it is displayed in   e-GGRT. |
| Y | E-GGRT   generates XML containing values entered for   "ApproachUsedforCorrection" as    "OtherApproachUsedforCorrection". | e-GGRT   ISSUE |
| BB | Row   31 in the calculation spreadsheet (sampling analysis results for Carbon   content of consumed petroleum coke) is located in the wrong section of the   spreadsheet.  It should be located   within the section titled, "...the facility does not use CEMS and bases   the carbon content of petroleum coke on reports from the supplier. | internal |
| CC | The   label for data element "TotalNumberofProcessLines" does not   adequately reflect the data it represents.    It should be relabeled to "TotalNumberofManufacturingLines"   for consistency with the spreadsheet and the rule. | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| CC | Based   on the MRR, the use of data element "IsSubstitutedIndicator" is   incorrect.  It should be replaced by   "NumberofTimesSubstituted".    The MRR specifies that the reporter must indicate the number of months   that missing data procedures were followed to determine the monthly mass of   Trona. | Internal |
| CC | Based   on the rule, the use of this data element is incorrect.  It should be replaced by   "NumberofTimesSubstituted".    It should indicate the  number   of weeks that missing data procedures were followed to determine the   inorganic carbon content of Trona. | Internal |
| CC | Based   on the rule, the use of this data element is incorrect.  It should be replaced by   "NumberofTimesSubstituted".    It should indicate the number of months that missing data procedures   were followed to determine the monthly mass of Soda Ash. | Internal |
| CC | Based   on the rule, the use of this data element is incorrect.  It should be replaced by   "NumberofTimesSubstituted".    It should indicate the  number   of weeks that missing data procedures were followed to determine the   inorganic carbon content of Soda Ash. | Internal |
| CC | Based   on the rule, the use of this data element is incorrect.  It should be replaced by   "NumberofTimesSubstituted".    It should indicate the  number   of times that missing data procedures were followed to repeat the test to   determine the hourly CO2 concentration during performance testing. | Internal |
| CC | The   label for data element "AverageProcessVentFlow" does not adequately   reflect the data it represents.  The   term "Rate" should be added to the end so that it reads as   ""AverageProcessVentFlowRate". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| CC | The   label for data element "ProcessVentFlow" does not adequately   reflect the data it represents.  The   term "Rate" should be added to the end so that it reads as   "ProcessVentFlowRate". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| EE | The   enumerated values for the attributes for data elements   "FractionCarbonContainingWaste" and    "AnnualCarbonContainingWasteProduced" are transposed.  The units of measure attributes should be   swapped. For example, attribute "massUOM" has the following   enumerated values: kgC/gallon, kgC/kg and     decimal fraction, and kg carbon/kg flare gas.  In contrast, attribute   "carboncontentUOM" has the following enumerated values: Metric   Tons, Short Tons, Kilograms, Pounds, tons and mtons. \\
\\
\\ | The   measured value for the first data element must be reported in terms of a   decimal fraction; kg carbon/kg flare gas.    Because the corresponding unit of measure attribute (massUOM) is   optional, do not report a value for it. \\
\\
 The measured value for the second   data element must be reported in short tons.    However, because the corresponding unit of measure attribute   (carboncontentUOM) is required, you must report a value.  Until fixed, report " decimal   fraction; kg carbon/kg flare gas". |
| EE | The   spreadsheet does not capture (but should) monthly details of TiO2 produced,   the carbon content of pet coke, consumption of pet coke, etc. | |
| GG | Data   element "NumberofElectroThermicFurnaces" is mislabeled.  The term "ElectroThermic" should   be spelled "Electrothermic". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| GG | The   schema captures both the name and type of each carbon-containing input   material charged to each kiln or furnace.    There is no corresponding field to capture the name of the input   material in the spreadsheet, only the type (Zinc-bearing material, Flux   material, Carbonaceous materials, and Carbon electrode).  \\
\\
Data element    "MaterialName" should be removed from the schema because   there is no specific reference in the rule to report that information (only   the type).  | When   reporting details regarding the input materials charged to the kiln or   furnace, do not report the material's name, only the its type. |
| GG | This   information is not captured in the Subpart EE spreadsheet nor referenced in   the rule. | Do   not report a value for the "MaterialName". |
| GG | There   is a missing data element for reporting the test method used for carbon   content analysis.  The new data element   should be placed under the "ZincMaterialsDetails" data component   and assigned the following enumerated values: Supplier Records, ASTM   E1941-04,   ASTM D5373-08, ASTM  C25-05. | |
| HH | In   order to be more consistent with the flow of the MRR, these data elements   should be reordered as follows: \\
\\
1)  LeachRateRecirculationIndicator \\
2) LeachRateRecirculationFrequency. | Report   the data element in the order they currently appear within the schema until   this is changed. |
| NN | The   data element "ProductCategoryName" appears under two separate   sections (NGLSupplied and  NGLReceived)   for the same NGLFuelDetails record. Because of this design, there is the   potential for reporting mismatched products.    If that were to occur, it would cause a data integrity issue because   the system would not know which product was actually being reported.   | Ensure   that the value reported under NGLSupplied is the same as the one reported   under NGLReceived (for the same instance of the parent element,   "NGLFuelDetails"). |
| NN | Brian   Cook, EPA, suggests relabeling data element   "AnnualVolumeGasReceived" to "AnnualVolumeGasReceivedatCityGate". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| NN | Brian   Cook, EPA, suggests relabeling data element "AnnualVolumeLNGforDelivery"   to AnnualVolumeLNGProduced". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| NN | Brian   Cook, EPA, suggests relabeling data element   "AnnualVolumeGasDeliveredtoPipeline" to   "AnnualVolumeGasDeliveredtoPipelinesand \\
LDCs". | Report   using the label currently defined in the schema until it is changed. |
| PP | An   enumeration list was added for data element   "MeasuringEquipmentType".    This is good; however, the list includes a value "Other", as opposed   to "Other (specify), but more importantly, there is no corresponding data   element for reporting the other equipment type.  In e-GGRT, if the reporter selects "Other",   a text box displays so the other type can be entered, but there is no place   in the schema for the entered value to be captured. | Add   a description of the "other" equipment type in the   "StandardForCalibration" data element until a new one is added. |
