Evaluation Report

The Evaluation Report provides a list of errors found in the evaluated data. For more information about an error, click the check code link in the check code/result column of the Evaluation Report to open the Check Specifications Viewer.

The following is a list of error levels and error descriptions that may appear in an Evaluation Report:

SEVERITY	DESCRIPTION
Fatal Error	This message indicates that there is an error that compromises the integrity of the data.
Critical Error Level 1	These are reporting errors. This error indicates that there is a problem with the way the data are reported and it should be possible to correct the error by correcting the reporting. If you submit data with Critical 1 errors, your data will not be loaded into the EPA database.
Critical Error Level 2	These appear to be deviations from rules and policies. This error indicates that either the data were reported incorrectly or the monitoring or testing was not done in accordance with the requirements. In the latter case, EPA can decide whether the error should be disregarded. These errors have no impact on data submission.
Non-Critical Error	These are minor errors that indicate small calculation errors or possible reporting errors that have minimal impact on the interpretation of the data and no implications for other data. These errors have no impact on data submission.
Informational	These messages are intended to identify unusual aspects of a source's report that are not necessarily errors. EPA would like the user to look over these informational errors to confirm that they do not indicate problems with the data. These errors have no impact on data submission.
ADMNOVR (Administrative Override)	These are errors that have been Administratively Overridden by EPA and do not require a resubmission or any further action. They are listed in the evaluation report for informational purposes and have no impact on data submission.
