Getting the Feet Wet in EI Grant work plan in 2001 Started on EI in Spring 2002 Gathering data, exploring categories Windshield surveys Internet searches (EPA, State sites) Did a GIS map for a visual aid Realized it was a HUGE task and one that needed more time and staff
3
The Help of TEISS Introduced to TEISS in Fall 2002 Training in Spring 2004 at FDL Rez Great Tool !!! Simplifies EI Helps investigate emission sources and data needed for EI (calculators) Create maps, graphs, tables, reports
4
First Round DONE!!! Submitted 2002 EI to ITEP for QA/QC Make changes if needed Will have ITEP submit Leech Lake’s EI to the NEI ~~~~~~~~~~IT’S NOT DONE~~~~~~~~~ Keep eyes open Prepare for EI update
