### 1 1 Purpose

Code of Federal regulations, 40 CFR 58.10 , requires the state and local a ir quality surveillance agencies to write an

annual ambient air quality monitoring network plan. EPA requires the plan to be put out for public comment and

submitted to EPA by July 1 st 

### . This report is used to determine if the network meets the monitoring objectives

defined in Part 58, Appendix D and to propose modifications to the network in the following year. A more detailed

air quality data summary is available annually at http://www.deq.stat e.or.us/aq/forms/annrpt.htm

.

2 Introduction

The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality’s (ODEQ) ambient air quality monitoring network is

designed in response to the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) National Monitoring Strategy, state and

local needs, the requirements of air quality maintenance plans and the State Implementation Plans (SIPs) for

non

- attainment areas, and CFR req uirements.

2.1 National Monitoring Strategy

The National Monitoring Strategy directs state and local agencies to operate mor e continuous monitors and to

collect real time air quality data. The real time information is available through EPA’s AIRNow and ODEQ’s

Air Quality Index (AQI) web pages. In particular, EPA encouraged states to use continuous PM 2.5 

### monitors

instead of th e filter base samplers which do not provide real time information. The National Monitoring

Strategy also created National Core (NCORE) sites which contain a wide array of pollutant monitoring.

ODEQ’s NCORE site has monitors for Carbon monoxide (CO), Nitr ogen oxides (NOx), Sulfur dioxide (SO 2 

### ),

ozone (O 3 

### ), particulate matter 2.5 and 10 micrometers in diameter and smaller (PM 2.5 

### and PM 10 

### ), PM coarse

(PM 10 

### - PM 2.5 

### =PMc), PM 2.5 

### Speciation, visibility, black carbon, and meteorology. Our proposed NCORE site is

at SE Lafayette, Portland

State and Local Support

Our monitors support state and local needs by providing data for the Wildfire Air Quality Rating (WAQR),

local wood stove management programs, Clean Air Quality Advisories for ozone, the Department of

Agricul ture’s field burning program, and the US Forest Service and BLM’s forest health program. ODEQ also

operates a visibility network in the Cascades and near the Eagle Cap wilderness to support Regional Haze

requirements prot ecting pristine Class 1 areas.

AQ Maintenance and Non

- attainment support

ODEQ monitoring supports the SIPs and maintenance plans developed for many cities. ODEQ also has

monitors in attainment areas with fast growing populations to support pollution prevention measures.

CFR requirement s

Monitoring objectives were established and siting was selected in accordance with Appendix D of 40 CFR 58.

The network was designed to meet the five basic monitoring objectives specified by federal regulations:

### 2

(1) to determine highest concentrations e xpected to occur in the area covered by the network;

(2) to determine representative concentrations in areas of high population density;

(3) to determine the impact of significant sources or source categories on ambient pollution levels;

(4) to determin e general background concentration levels; and

(5) to determine transport characteristics into and out of airsheds.

The current network was sited to ensure the spatial scale of the sampling matches the monitoring objective of the

station. Each station in the SLAMS/NCORE network was sited in accordance with the criteria in 40 CFR Part 58,

Appendix E. Quality Assurance requirements have been fully implemented through the Department's Quality

Assurance Plan reviewed by EPA.

2.2 Non

- attainment and Maintenance A reas Areas are designated attainment or non

- attainment a few years after a standard is proposed. If an area exceeds

the standard a State Implementation Plan (SIP) is written to bring an area into attainment. After monitoring

shows a non

- attainment area h as reached attainment, a maintenance plan is created to keep it there. Listed

below are Oregon’s current non

- attainment and maintenance areas.

2.2.1 Non

- attainment Areas :

### 3 3 Major Network Modifications between July 2009 and June 2010

All major modifications to the ambie nt air quality monitoring network are submitted to the regional administrator

for review and approval in the network assessment. Modifications occurring after the 2009 Network Assessment

are as follows:

DEQ

1) Set up and operated the Tubman School Air T oxics site from Sept to November 2009, as part of the School

Air Toxics (SAT) project.

2) Started up a new PM 2.5 

### , nephelometer, and meteorology site at Burns Washington Street (41

- 025

- 0003) for

comparison to existing site at Burns Madison Street (41

- 025

- 0 002). Burns city officials were concerned

that the Madison Street site was impacted by a chimney 13 meters away. The Washington Street site is

ideally located away from any nearby sources yet situated in the same neighborhood about four blocks

away.

3) Shut down Burns Madison Street site on March 31 st 

### , 2010. Comparison of the results from the two sites

showed little difference between the sites.

4) Relocated the PM 2.5 

### Speciation sampler from Medford Grant and Belmont (41

- 029

- 0133) to Lakeview

–

Cente r and M St. (41

- 037

- 0001) in September of 2009.

5) Started monitoring for wet Mercury Deposition January 1, 2010 as part of the National Ambient Deposition

Program at Beaverton Highland Park (41

- 067

- 0111).

6 ) S tart ed monitoring for TSP lead in McMin nville outside of Cascade Rolling Mills (41

- 071

- 1702) on January

1, 2010 as required by the new lead NAAQS

. LRAPA

7) LRAPA moved their PM 2.5 

### Speciation sampler from Eugene Amazon Park (41

- 039

- 0060) to Oakridge (41

-

039

- 2013) on July 1, 2009.

8) LRAPA ra

n a one year Nephelometer study in Florence (on the coast) ending in Oct, 2009.

9) LRAPA temporarily halted air toxic sampling at Eugene Amazon Park in July 2009 to save resources for a

two site Eugene air toxic network. The two site network started in April, 2010 at Amazon Park 41

- 039

- 0060 and Eugene Petersen Park (41

- 039

- 0101).

10) LRAPA started submitting Eugene, Wilkes Drive Meteorology data to DEQ and EPA.

Network

ODEQ continues to monitor for CO in two urban centers, Portland (SW 3 rd 

### Avenue) and Medford (Rogue

Mall). LRAPA monitors at Eugene Lane Community College. These three sites allow ODEQ to adequately

track maximum CO trends for Oregon. ODEQ also performs statewide emission inventories for CO. ODEQ

4.9 Air Quality Index (Real Time Networks)

ODEQ convert s all our Ozone, CO, and PM estimates to real time health information using EPA’s Air Quality

Index (AQI). This is a nationwide index that normalizes these pollutants and is used to inform the public about

current healthy air levels. Figure 13 shows a pa rt of ODEQ’s AQI web page, updated hourly. Figure 14 shows all

the locations where AQI is available. ODEQ also sends this data to EPA’s AQI page, AIRNow

http://www.airnow.gov/ , on an hourly basis. LRAPA manages their own AQI web page and AIRNow upload

. ODEQ also provides all hourly and five minute continuous data to Washington State University for their

AIRPACT pollution model, University of Washington for their MM

- 5 meteorology model, and Portland State

University’s Environmental School.

### 20 4.10 Field Burning Network

ODEQ partners with the Oregon De partment of Agriculture to monitor Willamette Valley field burning from July

through September. The sites are shown in Table 13. The field burning network consists of visibility monitors

(nephelometers) and meteorology. This information is used to trac k the effectiveness of the Department of

Agriculture’s field burning control program. The visibility data is converted to PM 2.5 

### estimates and is available

once per hour on ODEQ’s web site and uploaded to AIRNow.

ODEQ is also partnering with Union County to operate a field burning site in the Grande Ronde Valley in Cove.

The Cove site provides visibility, PM 2.5 

### estimates, and wind speed and wind direction.

### 2 1 Wildfire Air Quality Rating (WAQR)

ODEQ created a rating (index) which uses PM 2.5 

### estimates to calculate health levels. The health level rating is

updated hourly and includes the maximum one, eight, or 2 4 hour average. The one hour average is important

because a forest fire smoke plume is concentrated and can inundate an area within an hour. EPA’s Air Quality

Index health levels are based on 24 hour averages and do not register immediate smoke inundatio n. Figure 1 5

shows the WAQR web page.

Figure 15 . Wildfire Air Quality Rating (WAQR) web page.

4.12 Visibility Network

ODEQ operates a four site visibility network near pristine Class 1 areas; three in the Cascade Range and one nea r

the Eagle Cap Wilderness in NE Oregon. Table 15 lists the visibility sites.

# 2010 Oregon Annual Ambient Air Monitoring Network Plan

26

5 July 20 10 to June 2011 Network Plan

Recently, EPA has revised the NO 2 

### standard and monitoring rule, requiring one to two new

monitors in Oregon. EPA has proposed revising the Ozone NAAQS and monitoring rule

with the possible addition of one to two monitors. EP A proposed revising the SO 2 

### NAAQS

and monitoring rule with the possibility of adding two to three new monitors. EPA

proposed revising the lead rule with the possibility of adding one to two new monitors. Still

to come in 2010, EPA will propose a revised PM 2.5 

### NAAQS which may require more

investment in monitoring.

At the same time as these new monitoring requirements go into effect, Oregon is facing a

state budget cut. Due to reduced revenue projections, ODEQ is required to s ubmit a budget

proposal of 9 % across the board cuts of the state general fund for the 2011

- 2013 Biennium.

If fully taken, these budget cuts will result in the closure of numerous sites and the reduction

of monitoring staff positions and these resources will not be available to meet a ny of the

new EPA monitoring requirements. Shutting down the some PM 10 

### , CO, Continuous PM 2.5 

### , and air toxics sites will help meet these reductions while maintaining the current ozone and

PM 2.5 

### networks.

ODEQ plans on the following network changes to cut costs and refocus resources from low

priority to high priority monitoring. ODEQ will:

7) Discontinue the Portland N. Roselawn (41

- 051

- 0246) PM 2.5 

### FRM. The PNR three

year average 98 th 

### percentile is 20ug/m 3 

### . Funding will be shifted to fund an FRM in

Sweet Home which was defunded by the Oregon Dept of Agriculture. PNR will

contin ue to collect light scattering (continuous PM 2.5 

### estimate) data.

8) Start a Sweet Home (41

- 43

- 2002) PM 2.5 

### FRM on a 1/6 schedule. FRM sampling

will start here because the site had an estimated three year average 98 th 

### percentile of

32ug/m 3 

### (based on light scattering).

9) Hillsboro (41

- 067

- 0004) PM 2.5 

### FRM will change its schedule from 1/6 to 1/3

because its current 98 th 

### percentile is within 5 to10 % of the NAAQS.

10) ODEQ will start up a light scattering (continuous PM 2.5 

### estimate) and meteorology

site in Silverton, Oregon which will be funded during the summer months by the

Oregon Department of Agriculture and during the winter by DEQ. The site will

monitor field burning in the area just northwest of Salem starting July, 2010.

11) ODEQ may discontinue l ight scattering(continuous PM 2.5 

### estimate) at the Klamath

Falls Background site to transfer funding to either 1) support for a PM 2.5 

### survey in

the Klamath Falls area to validate modeling results or 2) be lost in possible state

budget cuts.

12) Will assist the Siletz Tribe in the set up and operation of a Coos Bay light scattering

(continuous PM 2.5 

### estimate) and meteorology site if requested. Offer remains open.

CO

13) Discontinue the Portland, SW 3 rd 

### CO site (41

- 051

- 0087). This site is 21% of the

NAAQS . The funding will be transferred to either 1) support new ozone, SO 2 

### , or

NO 2 

### monitoring requirement or 2) be lost in possible state budget cuts.

14) Discontinue the Medford Rogue Valley Mall CO site (41

- 039

- 0018). This site is

25% of the NAAQS. The fu nding will be transferred to either 1) support new

ozone, SO 2 

### , or NO 2 

### monitoring requirement or 2) be lost in possible state budget

cuts.

Lead

15) ODEQ will start an NCORE TSP (or PM 10 

### ) lead monitor at Portland SE Lafayette

(41

- 051

- 0080) in Jan. 2011. Th e funding source is expected to be EPA, as they have

done with the new Pb is in McMinnville.

16) ODEQ will start a TSP lead site at the Hillsboro Airport (no site yet) in Jan 2011

pending final adoption of the revised rule of 0.5tpy lead per source. The funding

source is also expected to be EPA.

NOy

17) ODEQ will start operating an NO

y 

### monitor at Portland SE Lafayette (41

- 051

- 0080)

in Jan. 2011 as required by NCORE. This will be funded by the federal PM 2.5 

### grant.

Air Toxics

18) ODEQ will move the Sal em air toxics site on July 1 st 

### to Hillsboro, N. Portland,

Gresham, Albany, McMinnville, or St. Helens depending on the outcome of the

2005 NATA yet to be reviewed. The state funding for this site may be cut on June

30 th 

### , 2011 at which time the site may be discontinued.

28 With these network changes Oregon DEQ and LRAPA will continue to provide useful high

quality monitoring information to Oregonians and to EPA.

6 Conclusion

In general ODEQ and LRAPA are continuing to follow the EPA monitoring strategic pla n

and focus our networks on PM 2.5 

### and ozone (because these pollutants are near or above the

NAAQS), air toxics, and real time reporting. We also have Oregon’s National CORE site

at Portland, SE Lafayette fully operational except for NO

y 

### which we will do before January

2011.

Recent (and proposed) changes in the NAAQS and monitoring rules will require DEQ to

focus more resources on ozone, NO 2 

### and SO 2 

### . We will also likely have to add more PM 2.5 

### and lead sites. All these new requirements are occurring whil e Oregon state funding is

being cut. To finance this new monitoring, some lower priority monitoring will need to be

discontinued. Carbon monoxide and PM 10 

### have remained far below the NAAQS for at least

ten years. ODEQ will shut down our remaining non tra ce CO sites and four of our PM 10



### sites.
