FIATS is an Administrative System used by the Agency's FOI
Officer.  The system tracks the status of requests for information
under the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act.  The data
from this system is used for the Agency's annual FOIA activity
report to Congress.
The system also reports types of requestors, program office case-
load and performance, and appeal activity. In conjunction with new
FOI policies and procedures, the system streamlines request proces-
sing and tracks and records the seemingly endless dispositions
of a request or the possibilities for responding to a request.

of two previously existing programs--INREM II and CAIRD. The health
risk from external exposures is also estimated by the CAIRD model
using dose rates from a separate model--DOSFACTER.

This computer code calculates the expected genetic and somatic

repository.  The code calculates radionuclide releases to air, land
surface, and rivers or lakes from a repository as a result of
expected events and accident events. The accidents are human intru-
sion (drilling), breccia pipes, faults, meteorites and volcanoes.
The expected events are shaft and borehole leakage and bulk rock
transport. The releases result either from destruction of waste
packages or disturbance of the contaminated repository backfilled
tunnels.

This system is used in ORP's high level radioactive waste
analyses to calculate somatic and genetic risk information for use
by the ORP REPRISK computer code.  The code calculates somatic and
genetic health effects per Curie release of user specified radio-
nuclides to the available environment for four release modes. These
modes include releases to a river, releases to an ocean, releases
to land surfaces, and releases to air.  The code traces the
environmental transport of radionuclides released via each of
these release modes through the applicable water, air and
terrestrial environmental transport pathways to man.  It calculates
the external exposure and in-take of radionuclides, and determines
the resulting somatic and genetic risk to the exposed population.

NITROGEN OXIDES; FUNDAMENTAL COMBUSTION
The PROF system can be used to predict the detailed chemical
kinetic combustion and/or pollutant formation events which occur in
a wide variety of experimental and practical combustion devices.
Both steady, free and confined premixed flames, where gaseous
diffusion is important, can be treated by the system. Also, well-
stirred reactor, plug-flow reactor, and fixed mass time-evolution
chemical kinetic problems, where diffusion is not explicitly
treated, can be modeled by the system.  PROF was completed in
February 1978 by Acurex Corporation/Energy & Environmental Division
of Mountain View California.  It was previously named Modeling
Studies in Combustion Aerodynamics/Chemistry.

covers and liners. This quasi-two-dimensional, deterministic,
computer-based water budget model was developed and adapted from
the U.S. Department of Agriculture CREAMS Hydrologic model and an
an earlier model (called HSSWDS). The Soil Conservation Service's
curve number method is used for calculating runoff.  The model uses
engineering, hydrologic, and climatologic data as input and per-
forms a sequential analysis.  Input data is in the form of rain-
fall, average temperatures, average solar radiation, leaf area in-
dices and characteristics of cover materials and subsurface layers.

standing of pesticides in the environment will lead to less burden-
some and cost-effective regulations. By working closely with the
pesticides users and the pesticide manufacturers, uniform and
credible data can be developed and evaluated in a timely fashion to
assure that the American people have safe and effective pesticides
to manage pest populations at levels which do not result in health,
economic, or aesthetic damage.

affecting facility location, corrective action, and closure.  Over
200 case studies have been organized into a library and detailed
computerized data base system by data fields and key words.  These
case studies will address the following topics:  floodplains,
poor foundation, surface water impact areas, special ground-water
conditions, air impact areas, proximity of units to population,
disposal technology, treatment, laws and acts, waste types,
environmental effects, location, compliance and corrective action.

The CERCLA information system version 3.0 will support EPA
HQ and regions for the management & oversight of the
Superfund program.  CERCLIS serves two purposes: to maintain an
automated inventory of abandoned, inactive, or uncontrolled
hazardous waste sites; and to act as the vehicle for the regions to
report to headquarters on the status of major stages of clean-up at
sites.  CERCLIS V3.0 will be developed with an indepth look at the
long term information needs of state and other federal agencies in
effectively managing clean ups.  CERCLIS V3.0 may be developed
using a data base manager other than System 2000, such as ADABAS.
CERCLIS V3.0 will begin with a long-range study of the relation-
ships of CERCLIS to Federal Agencies.

The Statistical Data Base (SDB) contains a random sample of the
laboratory results produced by the Contract Laboratory Program
(CLP).  It supports the statistical analysis of occurrence and
concentration of priority pollutants and hazardous substances at
superfund sites.  Beginning in FY88, the Analytical Results and
Quality Assurance Data Base (ARQ) will provide a more completed
data base of results.  The SDB will continue to be supported to
provide historical results analysis for data prior to the operation
of ARQ.  Thus the two data bases together will support statistical
analysis of laboratory results for the entire length of the CERCLA
Program.  SDB utilizes SAS statistical software on the ES 9000.

The National Acid Precipitation Assessment Program's (NAPAP's)
emissions inventory activities focus on the estimation of emissions
from pollutants, which contribute to acid deposition.  Electric
utilities, which emit a large share of total acid deposition
precursor emissions, are important for modeling analyses.  This
project was conducted to create a file containing comprehensive
data on all electric utilities in the United States.  The resulting
1985 National Utility Reference File contains detailed unit level
data for nearly 10,000 electricity generating units.

The National Priorities List (NPL) Characterization project was
undertaken to gain a better understanding of the hazardous waste
sites that have been placed on the NPL.  The NPL Characterization
Database Access System has been developed to allow menu-driven,
user-friendly access to this site characteristic information.  The
system includes information on over 50 site characteristics based
on record information, site description information, waste descrip-
tion information, water supply within three mile radius information
and environmental/demographic information.  The Access system re-
quires no specialized computer experience and has no additional
software requirements.

NPL Information System
The National Priorities List (NPL) Information System database is
a comprehensive, user-friendly query system used by EPA HQ
personnel for sorting, viewing, and/or printing site narrative
summaries and site characteristics information for all NPL
hazardous waste sites.  The information contained in the database
was compiled from a variety of sources.  In addition to the site
narrative summary, the following information is listed for each
site contained in the database:  site name, EPA ID number, EPA
Region, State, County, City, Congressional District, NPL Status
(Proposed, Dropped, or Deleted) and Date Proposed, Date Final, Date
Dropped or Date Deleted.  This system sorts information, views and/
or prints information, and prints narrative summaries of sites.

The Reach File is a hydrographic database of the surface waters
of the continental United States.  Elements within the database
were created for the express purpose of performing hydrologic
routing for modeling programs, identifying upstream and downstream
elements and providing a method to uniquely identify any particular
point associated with surface waters.  Any point within any of
these databases can be associated with, and identified by a
specific location on any surface water element.  The Reach File,
then, can be defined as the U.S. Surface Water Hydrographic
Identification Database.

MODEL; LESS THAN 10,000 DATA RECORDS; PROGRAM SUPPORT;  CERCLA/SARA SUPPORT
The Prescore computer program has been developed to assist Super-
fund site assessment investigations in Hazard Ranking System (HRS)
site scoring.  The HRS is used to assess the relative threat
associated with actual or potential releases of hazardous sub-
stances to ground water, surface water, soil, and air.  The HRS is
the primary means by which EPA evaluates sites for the National
Priorities List (NPL), the list of the hazardous waste sites that
are eligible for remedial funding under the Superfund program. Pre-
score is designed to be user-friendly and quick and efficient for
data entry.  Program features include instant score calculation and
continuous score display, multiple site-scenario test capability,
extensive help screens and comprehensive documentation ability.
