The year refers to the inventory or source; it does not establish an individual observation date or current operation. HydroWASTE is the available primary source for Puerto Rico, Guam and the US Virgin Islands: reported or estimated population served. It is not added to EPA. The US regulatory reference does not establish applicability to an individual plant. Source note (original text): South Carolina uses 2008 because it did not participate in 2012. CSV has no state or per-row year field. This is not CWNS 2022.
