Abstract

This documentation is a guide to the structure and relational nature of the datafiles used in this project. Below are special notes to be taken into consideration when using the datafiles. It is strongly advised that a potential user of this data read the main report to fully understand the sources of the data, how it was developed into the present database and with what respect the data is being used. A reference to the main report is noted above most files for further information about the file development. There are three sets of datafiles for the ILLINOIS SPILLS DATABASE: Facilities and Terminals, Spills, and Water Withdrawals. Some of the datafiles have a set of related files that are used specifically for the different sources of data.
