Rebecca... thanks. This V2 of the modeling protocol looks good. Let’s move forward.

## BART Modeling Protocol (draft v 2 3

- 2 8

- 13 ras)



## Apply “Modeling Protocol for Washington, Oregon and Idaho: Protocol for the Application of the CALPUFF Modeling System Pursuant to the Best Available Retrofit Technology (BART) Regulation (7/21/06).”

The CALPUFF modeling system w ill be applied using the exact same meteorological data set (2003

- 2005), model versions, and options as specified in the original Protocol used in the February 2008 “BART Determination Modeling Analysis, Tesoro Anacortes Refinery.” The following results w ill be summarized for each Class 1 area within 300 km radius of Tesoro:

1. C ontrasting the number of days with predicted changes to the haze index greater than 0.5 dv 2. T he 98 th 

## percentile change to the daily haze index 3. T he max imum cha n ge to the daily haze index.

The design day extinction budgets will also be presented for each Class I area, emission case, and year.
Model the following cases:

1. Baseline 2. EPA BART 3. Tesoro’s “Better

- than

- BART” Proposal

Baseline:

 Include all sources involved in the EPA BART and Tesoro “Better

- than

- BART” cases as listed in Attachment 1

.
 Appl y e stimated maximum 24

- hour emission rates during 2004

- 2006 for each pollutant for all EPA BART and Tesoro “Better

- than

- BART” sources

. (*)

 Apply m ete orological (met) conditions previously prepared during initial BART modeling ( 2003

- 2005 )

.
 P ost

- control for SO2 and PM emission rates will be used for F

- 302 and F

- 304 to account for the installation of the Flue Gas Scrubber at the CCU in 2005. This will rem ain constant for all three cases.

## EPA BART :

Using the “Baseline” furnace firing rate, apply the emission reduction benefit of :

1. BART controls ( as agreed to in Ecology’s BART Order #7838 ) 2. EPA additional BART NOX controls at the following sources: F

- 6650, F

- 6651, F

- 6652, F

- 6654 and F

- 304

.

Tesoro “Better

- Than

- BART” : Using the “Baseline” furnace firing rate, apply the emission reduction benefit of:

1. BART controls (as agreed to in Ecology’s BART Order #7838 ) 2. Tesoro RFG Project to non

- BART sou rces: F

- 101, F

- 102, F

- 301, F

- 6652, F

- 751, F

- 752.

- BART, the baseline 24

- 2006. Furthermore f or the non
- BART sources F

- 751 and F

- 752, the maxi mum monthly period was selected from months whereby only RFG was burned (no oil burning). (3) Tesoro is subject to a federally enforceable RFG H2S limit of 1,000 ppm, 365

- hour emission rates for the Flare X

- 819, Cooling Water #2, Cooling Water #2A will be applied to all three modeling cases due to the relatively low emission rates and that there are no proposed emissions changes in either the EPA BA RT or Tesoro Better

- BART scenarios.
