# Summary of WRAP RMC BART Modeling for Nevada **Draft# 7**  **April 2** **4 ,**  **200 7**  More Information: http://pah.cert.ucr.edu/aqm/308/bart.shtml Emission Summary: http://pah.cert.ucr.edu/aqm/308/bart/calpuff/emissions/nv_emis_Mar09_2007.xls This document summarizes the CALMET/CALPUFF BART modeling results performed by the WRAP RMC for Nevada. The procedures used are outlined in the WRAP RMC BART Modeling Protocol that is available at: http://pah.cert.ucr.edu/aqm/308/bart/WRAP_RMC_BART_Protocol_Aug15_2006.pdf The basic assumptions in the WRAP BART CALMET/CALPUFF modeling are as follows:
 Use of three years of modeling of 2001, 2002 and 2003 (except Alaska where just one year, 2002, was used).
 Visibility impacts due to emissions of SO2, NOx and primary PM emissions were calculated (even for Section 309 States): o Unless States provided speciated PM emissions, all PM emissions were modeled as PM2.5

### .  Visibility was calculated using the Original IMPROVE equation and Annual Average Natural Conditions

.  CALPUFF Version 6.112 was used

. The tables that follow contain for each Nevada BART source the following information:
 The first row contains the source number, name and SO2 and NOx emissions that were provided by the State.
 Each subsequent row has information on the visibility impacts at Class I area, with the columns containing the following information for the indicated Class I area: 1. The four

-letter Class I area identifier; 2. The distance (km) between the source and the closest receptor in the Class I area; 3. The maximum visibility impact in deciview across the three years of modeling; 4. The 99th 

### percentile (i.e., 11 th 

### highest) visibility impact across the three years of modeling; 5. The 98th 

### percentile (i.e., 22th 

### highest) visibility impact across the three years of modeling; 6. The number of days the visibility impact at the Class I area exceeded the 0.5 dv threshold; 7. The 98th 

### percentile (8th 

### highest) visibility impacts in 2001; 8. The 98th 

### percentile (8th 

### highest) visibility impacts in 2002; 9. The 98th 

### percentile (8th 

### highest) visibility impacts in 2003; 

### 10. The average of the 98th 

### percentile across 2001, 2002 and 2003
