Dataset Description Outline (5 sections)

• INTRODUCTION

• WHY USE THE CONNECTICUT OPEN DATA PORTAL MANIFEST METADATA DATASET INSTEAD OF THE DEEP DOCUMENT ONLINE SEARCH PORTAL ITSELF?

• WHAT MANIFESTS ARE INCLUDED IN DEEP’S MANIFEST PERMANENT RECORDS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE VIA THE DEEP DOCUMENT SEARCH PORTAL AND CT OPEN DATA?

• HOW DOES THE PORTAL MANIFEST METADATA DATASET RELATE TO THE OTHER TWO MANIFEST DATASETS PUBLISHED IN CT OPEN DATA?

• IMPORTANT NOTES

INTRODUCTION
• All of DEEP’s paper hazardous waste manifest records were recently scanned and “indexed”. • Indexing consisted of 6 basic pieces of information or “metadata” taken from each manifest about the Generator and stored with the scanned image. The metadata enables searches by: Site Town, Site Address, Generator Name, Generator ID Number, Manifest ID Number and Date of Shipment.
• All of the metadata and scanned images are available electronically via DEEP’s Document Online Search Portal at: https://filings.deep.ct.gov/DEEPDocumentSearchPortal/
• Therefore, it is no longer necessary to visit the DEEP Records Center in Hartford for manifest records or information.
• This CT Data dataset “Hazardous Waste Portal Manifest Metadata” (or “Portal Manifest Metadata”) was copied from the DEEP Document Online Search Portal, and includes only the metadata – no images.

WHY USE THE CONNECTICUT OPEN DATA PORTAL MANIFEST METADATA DATASET INSTEAD OF THE DEEP DOCUMENT ONLINE SEARCH PORTAL ITSELF?
The Portal Manifest Metadata is a good search tool to use along with the Portal. Searching the Portal Manifest Metadata can provide the following advantages over searching the Portal:
• faster searches, especially for “large searches” - those with a large number of search returns unlimited number of search returns (Portal is limited to 500);
• larger display of search returns;
• search returns can be sorted and filtered online in CT Data; and
• search returns and the entire dataset can be downloaded from CT Data and used offline (e.g. download to Excel format)
• metadata from searches can be copied from CT Data and pasted into the Portal search fields to quickly find single scanned images.
The main advantages of the Portal are:
• it provides access to scanned images of manifest documents (CT Data does not); and
• images can be downloaded one or multiple at a time.

WHAT MANIFESTS ARE INCLUDED IN DEEP’S MANIFEST PERMANENT RECORDS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE VIA THE DEEP DOCUMENT SEARCH PORTAL AND CT OPEN DATA?
All hazardous waste manifest records received and maintained by the DEEP Manifest Program; including:
• manifests originating from a Connecticut Generator or sent to a Connecticut Destination Facility including manifests accompanying an exported shipment
• manifests with RCRA hazardous waste listed on them (such manifests may also have non-RCRA hazardous waste listed)
• manifests from a Generator with a Connecticut Generator ID number (permanent or temporary number)
• manifests with sufficient quantities of RCRA hazardous waste listed for DEEP to consider the Generator to be a Small or Large Quantity Generator
• manifests with PCBs listed on them from 2016 to 6-29-2018.
• Note: manifests sent to a CT Destination Facility were indexed by the Connecticut or Out of State Generator. Searches by CT Designated Facility are not possible unless such facility is the Generator for the purposes of manifesting.

All other manifests were considered “non-hazardous” manifests and not scanned. They were discarded after 2 years in accord with DEEP records retention schedule. Non-hazardous manifests include:
• Manifests with only non-RCRA hazardous waste listed
• Manifests from generators that did not have a permanent or temporary Generator ID number
• Sometimes non-hazardous manifests were considered “Hazar

Municipal grant/reimbursement amounts for programs administered by the Office of Policy and Management from State General Fund for Fiscal Years 2010 through 2024.

The Grand List is the aggregate valuation of taxable property within a given town. This dataset includes a breakdown for taxable categories and exemptions from 2011-2023 Grand List years. The following categories and exemptions are included:

Town Name, Residential, Commercial, Industrial, Public Utility, Vacant, Land Use, 10 Mill Forest, Apartments, Total Real, Real Exemptions, Total Net Real, Motor Vehicles, MV Exemptions, Total Net MV, Personal Property, Personal Property Exemptions, Total Net Personal Property, Total Net Grand List.

The data shown in this table is updated weekly on Thursdays. The applications included in these counts have NOT been reviewed for completeness. The counts may include incomplete applications and are subject to change.

The data reflects the total number of social equity and general lottery applications the Department of Consumer Protection has received for each license type at the time the report was generated. The Department has not reviewed the applications and cannot confirm that each application was completed properly or that each backer listed in the application submitted a backer application.

Those counted as social equity applicants have self-identified as social equity applicants. The Social Equity Council has NOT reviewed the applications to verify social equity status.

All individuals that are identified as backers associated with a cannabis establishment application must also complete a backer application before the close of the application window to ensure they are considered as part of the application.

Applications will not be reviewed until after the application period closes and the third-party lottery operator has randomly selected the appropriate number of applications for each license type.

DPH note about change from 7-day to 14-day metrics:
As of 10/15/2020, this dataset is no longer being updated. Starting on 10/15/2020, the school learning model indicator metrics will be calculated using a 14-day average rather than a 7-day average. The new school learning model indicators dataset using 14-day averages can be accessed here: https://data.ct.gov/Health-and-Human-Services/CT-School-Learning-Model-Indicators-by-County-14-d/e4bh-ax24

As you know, we are learning more about COVID-19 all the time, including the best ways to measure COVID-19 activity in our communities. CT DPH has decided to shift to 14-day rates because these are more stable, particularly at the town level, as compared to 7-day rates. In addition, since the school indicators were initially published by DPH last summer, CDC has recommended 14-day rates and other states (e.g., Massachusetts) have started to implement 14-day metrics for monitoring COVID transmission as well.

With respect to geography, we also have learned that many people are looking at the town-level data to inform decision making, despite emphasis on the county-level metrics in the published addenda. This is understandable as there has been variation within counties in COVID-19 activity (for example, rates that are higher in one town than in most other towns in the county).

This dataset includes the leading and secondary metrics identified by the Connecticut Department of Health (DPH) and the Department of Education (CSDE) to support local district decision-making on the level of in-person, hybrid (blended), and remote learning model for Pre K-12 education.

Data represent daily averages for each week by date of specimen collection (cases and positivity), date of hospital admission, or date of ED visit. Hospitalization data come from the Connecticut Hospital Association and are based on hospital location, not county of patient residence. COVID-19-like illness includes fever and cough or shortness of breath or difficulty breathing or the presence of coronavirus diagnosis code and excludes patients with influenza-like illness. All data are preliminary.

These data are updated weekly; the previous week period for each dataset is the previous Sunday-Saturday, known as an MMWR week (https://wwwn.cdc.gov/nndss/document/MMWR_week_overview.pdf). The date listed is the date the dataset was last updated and corresponds to a reporting period of the previous MMWR week. For instance, the data for 8/20/2020 corresponds to a reporting period of 8/9/2020-8/15/2020.

These metrics were adapted from recommendations by the Harvard Global Institute and supplemented by existing DPH measures.

This list provides information about releases from federally regulated Underground Storage Tank (UST) Systems that have been, and are scheduled to be, reported to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) by the CT DEEP. There are approximately 3600 releases from federally regulated USTs on this list. Federally regulated USTs include USTs containing heating fuel for resale purposes and USTs that contain gasoline, diesel, kerosene, and waste oil. To learn more about federally regulated USTs please see the EPA's UST website (https://www.epa.gov/ust/learn-about-underground-storage-tanks-usts).

This dataset is a subset of records and information that may be available about releases from federally regulated USTs that have occurred at specific locations. This dataset does not replace a full review of files publicly available either using the DEEP on-line Public Portal (https://filings.deep.ct.gov/DEEPDocumentSearchPortal/) and/or at the DEEP Record Center File Room (https://portal.ct.gov/DEEP/About/Environmental-Quality-Records-Records-Center-File-Room).

‒ This list does not contain releases from non-federally regulated USTs (i.e. releases from residential heating fuel USTs).
‒ Not every type of release from a federally regulated UST System is required to be reported to the EPA.
‒ Not every release from a federally UST System is reported to the DEEP. We can only report the information we receive.
‒ We know there may be errors in the data although we strive to minimize them. Examples of errors may include: misspelled or incomplete addresses and/or missing data.

If errors are found please contact the program unit using the following email address: DEEP.Leakingust@ct.gov .
