* Split: if 50% appears in this column, then the facility's emissions have been split among two 50/50% ownership parent companies.
** This facility's emissions are nonlocal -- released in a widespread area. So it is not meaningful to look at the characteristics of the population living within 10 miles of the facility address for copollutant effects.
The Toxic 100 Air score column shows the facility's total chronic human health air toxicity score if the facility also exists in the Toxic 100 Air Polluters database.
