Past Versions of Documentation for Greenhouse Gas Emission and Energy Factors Used in the Waste Reduction Model (WARM)

Although the numbers and some of the methods provided in past versions of the documentation report are now outdated, EPA provides archived copies of these documents for the information of WARM users.
