Background
• 8-hour ozone standard– If a monitored design value is > 0.08 ppm (84 ppb),
that monitor is violating the standard– The design value is defined as:
• 3-year average of the annual 4th highest daily maximum 8-hour average

Redesignation/Maintenance SIPProcess Overview
• Area attains standard (2005 or 2006)– Develop emissions inventory for the year area attains standard– Develop maintenance emissions inventories for at least 10
years beyond redesignation approval• Determined through Inter-Agency Consultation Process
– Develop interim/maintenance emissions inventories • 3 to 5 year increments
– Compare maintenance emissions to attaining year’s emissions• Maintenance emissions must be lower than attaining year’s
emissions… If not, control strategies must be developed
![Page 9: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
9
Redesignation/Maintenance SIPProcess Overview
• Develop draft SIP package– Emissions comparisons– Motor Vehicle Emissions Budgets– Contingency measures
• Take draft SIP to public hearing– 30 day comment period
• Submit to EPA anytime prior to June 2007• Update plan 8 years after redesignation
– Must examine additional 10 years beyond final maintenance year in redesignation package

Modeling Season / Episode
• Full Year of 2002 selected for VISTAS modeling– Regional Haze / Fine Particulate: Full Year– Ozone: Late May – End Of August
• This is the portion of the 2002 ozone season when the majority of ozone exceendances took place.

State Implementation Plan (SIP)
• Need a “SIP submittal” to EPA within three years– Attainment Demonstration that details
the State’s plan to bring the area into attainment of the Federal standard
– Triangle and RMT areas…must include: • Reasonably Available Control Measures (RACM) • Reasonable Further Progress (RFP)
![Page 15: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
Requirements• RACM Requirements
– Applies to all source sectors (point, area, highway mobile & off-road mobile sources)
• Point Sources referred to as RACT (Reasonably Available Control Technology)
– Only what is necessary to attain NAAQS as expeditiously as practicable
– NC has already adopted some RACM type rules• Open burning ban during ozone events• Expanded I/M program• Pre-adopted VOC and NOx RACT rules for the 1-
hour ozone nonattainment areas

2002 Typical and 2009 Emissions Overview
Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ Environmental Engineer II
Note !!!• 2008 emissions inventories are being developed by NCDAQ for the
Triangle and Rocky Mount nonattainment areas• Preliminary 2008 emissions and air quality modeling to be
performed by NCDAQ
!!! 2009 emissions and air quality modeling results are being presented here today as a surrogate for 2008 !!!

Emissions Inventory Definitions
• ActualActual = the emissions inventory developed to simulate what happened in 2002
• TypicalTypical = the emissions inventory developed to characterize the “current” (2002) emissions… It doesn’t include specific events, but rather averages or typical conditions (e.g. EGUs and fires)
• FutureFuture = the emissions inventory developed to simulate the future (e.g. 2008 for Triangle and Rocky Mount modeling)
***Remember… Actual is used for model performance evaluation only! Typical and Future are used to determine future attainment status.

What is a Modeled Attainment Demonstration?
• Analyses which estimate whether selected emissions reductions will result in ambient concentrations will meet NAAQS
• An identified set of control measures which will result in the required emissions reductions
• Use the Modeled Attainment Test to estimate emissions reduction needed to demonstrate attainment
![Page 46: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

What is the Attainment Test ?• An exercise in which an air quality model is used to
simulate current and future air quality near each monitoring site.
• Model estimates are used in a “relative” rather than “absolute” sense.
• Future ozone design values are estimated at existing monitoring sites by multiplying a modeled relative reduction factor at locations “near” each monitor times the observed monitor-specific ozone design value.
• The resulting projected site-specific “future design value” is compared to NAAQS.
• If all such future site-specific design values are 84 ppb, the test is passed.

monitored data
Step 2: Use air quality modeling results to estimate a site-specific relative reduction factor (RRF)
Step 3: Multiply the relative reduction factor obtained in step 2 times the site-specific design value in step 1… The result is a predicted site-specific future design value (DVF)…

50
Attainment Test
Step 1: Compute the current design value (DVC)
• The DVC is calculated for each monitoring
site within a nonattainment area. • EPA Draft Final Guidance for the 8-hour
Ozone standard suggests a few possible methods for calculating the DVC.
![Page 51: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
51
Method 1
• Use the design value corresponds to the period used in the attainment designation.
• Same steps as determining a design value for designation:
– Step 1: Sort all daily 8-hour average maximums in order from highest to lowest into a list for 2001
– Step 2: Repeat Step 1 for the next two consecutive years (2002 & 2003) creating a total of three lists
– Step 3: Average the 4th highest from each list or across the 3-year span
![Page 52: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
52
Method 2
• Use the design value period that straddles the baseline inventory year.
• Our baseline year is 2002; the corresponding DVC would be the average of the 4th highest 8-hour ozone concentrations from 2001, 2002, 2003.
• Results in the same value for Method 1 for our modeling.

Method 3• Average of the three design value period which
include the baseline inventory year. • Average of the 2000-2002, 2001-2003, 2002-2004
design value.• This method represents the baseline concentrations
while taking into account the variability in meteorology and emissions.
• EPA recommended method.

Method 4• Average of the design values for the 5 year
period that straddles the baseline inventory year.
• Average of the 4th highest values from 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, & 2004.
• This method takes into account the variability in meteorology and emissions without giving one year a higher weight than another.

63
Relative vs. Absolute• Why use model estimates in a “relative” rather than “absolute”
sense?
– The form of the 8-hr standard (4th highest averaged over 3 years) makes it difficult to tell whether or not a modeled exceedance obtained on one or more days selected from a limited sample of days is consistent with meeting the NAAQS
– Problems with model performance are reduced (although good model performance remains a prerequisite for use of a model in an attainment demonstration)
![Page 64: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)

65
Attainment Test Step 2 (con’t)... Definition of “near a monitor”
– EPA guidance recommends considering an array of values “near” each monitor
– Assume a monitor is at the center of the grid cell in which it is located and that cell is the center of an array of “nearby” cells
– Using a grid with 12 km grid cells, “nearby” is defined by a
3 x 3 array of cells, with the monitor located in the center cell
![Page 66: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
66
Attainment Test
Step 2 (con’t)... Days used in RRF calculation• EPA has established cutoff value for model
values to be used in the calculation of the RRF• The predicted baseline (2002 typical) maximum 8-
hour concentrations < 70 ppb are excluded.• It is expected that future guidance will use 85 ppb
as a cutoff value with the stipulation that 10 days are needed to calculate a RRF. If the monitoring site does not have 10 days above 85 ppb, the cutoff is lowered until 10 days are obtained for the calculation.
![Page 67: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
67
Attainment Test
Step 2 (con’t)... Computing the RRF
• Once the days in the baseline year that meet the cutoff value are identified, the peak value for each grid cell is determined for the day.
• The maximum of the peak daily values from the 3x3 grid array are then identified.
• The maximum from the array are averaged for all days identified to determine the Current Mean Peak 8-hour Daily Maximum.

68
Attainment Test
Step 2 (con’t)... Computing the RRF
• This is then repeated for the same set of days from the Future year modeling.
• The maximum averaged value from the array is referred to as the Future Mean Peak 8-hour Daily Maximum.
• To obtain the RRF the Future Mean Peak 8-hour Daily Maximum is divided by the Current Mean Peak 8-hour Daily Maximum.

The different methods can be used in conjunction with “the test”…
OR
Some could be used as supplemental analyses in a Weight Of Evidence determination…

2008 vs. Preliminary 2009 Point Source Inventory Improvements
• Initial 2009 Electric Generating Unit (EGU) emissions were developed using assumptions in the Integrated Planning Model (IPM). – Those assumptions at facilities subject to the NC
Clean Smokestacks Act (CSA) were not consistent with the CSA compliance plan.
• Changes upcoming– Final 2008 run will include unit specific emissions as
specified in the June 1, 2005 NC CSA Compliance Plan submitted by Progress Energy and Duke Energy
– Correction of Congentrix facility emissions in Edgecombe County

2002 Typical and 2008 Area & Nonroad
Inventory Improvements
• Area & Nonroad sources– New data acquired from Raleigh-Durham
International Airport• Growth assumptions changes
– Residential wood combustion emissions over-estimated

2002 Typical and 2008 Onroad Mobile Source
Inventory Improvements
• 2002 VMT updated to reflect latest NCDOT data used in recent transportation conformity analysis
• 2008 VMT is generally lower than 2009

Next Steps
• Laura Boothe, NCDAQ Attainment Planning Chief
![Page 83: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
83
Next Steps• Based on EPA’s expected final modeling guidance:
– The preliminary 2009 results show that the Triangle and Rocky Mount areas will pass the attainment test
• Given the 2009 results are well below the standard, the 2008 results will likely show attainment
Caveats:– 2008 vs. 2009
– Several emissions improvements
– Cannot predict exactly how the DVFs will change

Schedule
Emission Inventory improvements ~June/July 2005
New/refined 2002 emissions and air quality modeling ~Aug/Sept 2005Preliminary 2008 emissions and air quality modeling ~ Aug/Sept 2005
Until then… Discussion will continue on:– RACT, RACM – Motor Vehicle Emission Budgets (MVEBs)– Follow latest updates to EPA Modeling Guidance
After 2002 & 2008 emissions & air quality modeling is complete…– Hold another Stakeholder Meeting ~Oct 2005
• Summarize emissions changes• Present latest attainment test results• Have more detailed discussions on RACT, RACM, MVEBs
![Page 85: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
85
Motor Vehicle Emission Budgets (MVEBs)
• Estimates of the 2008 mobile source emissions from attainment modeling exercise
– Can be estimated using MOBILE6 outside of SMOKE modeling framework• Will have opportunity to use “new/improved”
input data – As long as it’s not significantly different than input data in
attainment modeling
![Page 86: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
86
Motor Vehicle Emission Budgets (MVEBs)
• We have options on how to set MVEBs
Area-wide
vs.
Sub-Area
![Page 87: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
87
Area-Wide MVEBs
• Advantages– Budgets can be shared (if the SIP language
allows this)
• Disadvantages– MPOs/RPOs must collectively make a
conformity determination – One MPO/RPO in the non-attainment area
(NA) lapses, everyone lapses (assuming more than one MPO/RPO in the NA area)
![Page 88: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
88
Sub-Area MVEBs
• Advantages– Once conformity is established for entire NA
area…..• Conformity determinations can be made
for specific MPOs/RPOs (without impacting the entire NA area)
• If one MPO/RPO within the NA lapses it does not impact remaining areas until their next conformity determination
![Page 89: 1 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Modeling for 8-hour Ozone Preliminary 2009 Results For Triangle and Rocky Mount Stakeholders Mike Abraczinskas, NCDAQ](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551563dc55034691418b4bd4/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
89
Sub-Area (continued)
Disadvantages– Budgets cannot be shared

90
MVEBs
• Need from transportation partners:– “New/improved” data, if available ~Fall 2005– Discussion on how to set MVEBs ~NOW – Feb 2006
• If Area-wide budgets…– Need unanimous agreement with strong justification as to why by
February 2006
• Otherwise, county by county (sub-area budgets)
