Airshed Sources

To report on an aggregate source to air, select a source listed in the "Source Emissions to Airsheds" pick list. Narrow your search by specifying a location if required, if you do not specify a location you will get a report for all the emission estimations for this source in Australia. Please note as aggregate sources are not estimated annually you do not need to specify a year, the report will automatically return you the latest data available.

Information about aggregate sources.

Catchments Sources

Each catchment has its own set of sources defined to suit it its own particular features. To report on a catchment source, select a source from the Source Emissions to Catchments" pick list for the catchment you are interested in. As sources are unique to a given catchment, do not specify a location, the report will automatically report on the full extent of the catchment. Please note as aggregate sources are not estimated annually you do not need to specify a year, the report will automatically return you the latest data available. Information about aggregate sources.

Topic search - facility

Go to the Facility search

Enter all or part of a reporting facility's name. (Upper and lower case are considered equivalent.) For example, entering "apple" will select all reporting facilities whose names contain apple such as Crabapple Pty. Limited, Apple Industries, MerryApple Blue Pty. Limited, etc. The search will look at both Registered Name (the name of the company) and the name the facility is known by. Please note that a facility's name may change over the years. If you cannot find a facility by name, but you know where it is, you may find it by a Location search or try our new Make a Map option.

Topic search - location

Got to the Location search

Choose a State/Territory, or type in a Postcode or a Local Government Area name. Please also try our Make a Map option.

Search all categories from interface

Search All Categories allows you to specify all report parameters on a single screen and is particularly useful for searching for a particular facility if you wish to specify multiple search parameters.

The screen is divided into five sections:

You may choose to search on one or more of the five sections, for example, specify Facility name BHP and Substance Carbon Monoxide with ANZSIC Group of Coal Mining and Location NSW.

Important note if using the "All Categories" search and specifying an airshed or catchment source, please do not specify a substance as well, as the report will not complete successfully.

Examples of searches
