Footnotes:

1. Land releases include disposal on-site, offsite and surface impoundments (ponds). This does not include various ash utilization activities based on internal legal review.

2. Dioxin release estimates are reported in grams

3. A blank cell (-) indicates a threshold was not exceeded for that year.

4. Total is the sum of all releases are converted to lbs.

5.Used EPRI particulate phase emission estimation equation. Made this change beginning in RY2004 because it incorporates imput parameters that exhibit strong effects on emission levels (i.e PM, element concentrations in coal and ash fraction of coal.)

6.Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds and Benzo(g.h,l) perylene increased in 2006 due to asphalt paving.
