Filing Information
Starting January 1, 2023, the MSEI is required to be submitted using the State and Local Emissions Inventory System (SLEIS). The only exception is for group 2 grain elevators, concrete batch plants, crushing plants, and hot mix asphalt plants that use specialized forms or standardized online spreadsheets for emissions reporting. These forms and spreadsheets may continue to be used. The DNR offers several resources to assist facilities with emission inventories:
- SLEIS - Online emissions reporting tool: https://programs.iowadnr.gov/sleis
- Instructions, exemptions, FAQs, and tips to complete the inventory: Minor Source Emissions Inventory
- Emissions estimate tools (including spreadsheets for many processes): Emission Tools & Calculators
- Facilities with less than 100 employees may also contact the Iowa Air Emissions Assistance Program (IAEAP) at the University of Northern Iowa for free training and assistance. For more information, please visit https://iwrc.uni.edu/msei
