• Discussion of beta and version 1 of 2016 O&G inventories and schedule
• Alpha version of the O&G sources inventory was explained and discussed
• EPA should have a year 2016 point source O&G inventory in late March or early April
• Tom Moore(WRAP)/John Grant (Ramboll) mentioned that a review of the point and non-point O&G sources report is available
• Group discussed methodologies to project sources from 2014 to 2016

Action Items

• Members to review the charge document before next call
• Members to review the Alignment 2016 EMP-2017 NEI document
• Survey ideas to be sent to Tom Moore before next call
• EPA to provide NAICS codes used to determine which point sources belong in the point source O&G sector (Vukovich)
• Provide links to the National Committee review docs (T. Moore)

Next Call: April 9 2018 at 1230PM ET
