# Background information

EPA ambient air quality surveillance regulations (Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Part 58

(40 CFR Part 58) ) require states to establish air quality surveillance systems in their State

Implementation Plans (SIPs). An air quality surveillance system cons ists of a network of State

and Local Air Monitoring Stations (SLAMS). These stations measure ambient concentrations of

those air pollutants for which 40 CFR Part 50 sets standards.



# Monitoring network requirements

SLAMS must meet requirements of 40 CFR Pa rt 58 contained in:

 Appendix A (Quality Assurance Requirements)

 Appendix C (Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Methodology)

 Appendix D (Network Design Criteria)

 Appendix E (Probe and Path Siting Criteria)

States determine if they conform to Appendices A and C in part through periodic systems and

performance audits (per Section 2.4 of Appendix A). States conform to Appendices D and E by

conducting an annual network review of their air quality surveillance systems (per 40 CFR

58.20(d)). The annual network revi ew:

 Determines if an ambient air quality monitoring network is achieving its required air

monitoring objectives ;

 Identifies changes to the network needed to enable an organization to meet its objectives

.



# Using monitoring data

Ecology uses its air monitori ng data to:

 Determine compliance with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS)

.

 Determine maximum pollutant concentrations

.

 Forecast air quality

.

 Evaluate the effectiveness of air pollution control programs

.

 Evaluate the effects of air pollution on public health

.

 Track the progress of SIPS

.

 Support dispersion models

.

 Determine air quality trends

.

 Develop responsible and cost

- effective pollution control strategies

.

 Analyze pollution episodes

.

 Assist with permitting work

.10 

# Introduction

The Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Part 58 (40 CFR Part 58) contains the federal EPA’s ambient

air quality surveillance regulations. Section 58.20 requires states to establish air quality surveillance

systems in their SIPs. The air quality surveillance s ystem consists of a network of designated SLAMS.

These stations measure ambient concentrations of those air pollutants for which standards exist in 40

CFR Part s 50 and Part 58, Appendices A (Quality Assurance Requirements), C (Ambient Air Quality

Monitori ng Methodology), D (Network Design Criteria)

, and E (Probe and Path Siting Criteria). States

determine compliance with Appendices A and C in part through periodic systems and performance

audits (per Section 2.4 of Appendix A). States comply with Appendic es D and E by conducting an

annual network review of their air quality surveillance systems (per 40 CFR 58.20(d)).

The annual network review determines if the network achieved its required air monitoring objectives

and if it should be modified (e.g., term ination, relocation

, or establishment of monitoring stations) to

meet those objectives. The main purpose of this review is to ensure that an ambient air quality

monitoring network collects adequate, representative, and useful air quality data on which to base policy

decisions. The ambient air quality data from Ecology’s network is used for a variety of purposes,

including:

 Determining compliance with the NAAQS

.

 Determining the location of maximum pollutant concentrations

.

 Determining the effectiveness of air pollution control programs

.

 Evaluating the effects of air pollution on public health

.

 Tracking the progress of SIPS

.

 Supporting dispersion models

.

 Developing responsible, cost

- effective, control strategies

.

 Developing air quality trends

.

 Analyze pollu tion episodes

.

 Assist with permitting work

.

# Regulatory Requirements and Other Data Needs

Appendix D Requirements

Appendix D of 40 CFR 58 describes concepts for designing the SLAMS network. It addresses

monitoring objectives and the criteria for selecting the location and number of air monitoring stations.

The concepts and guidance in Appendix D, as well as other non

- regulatory EPA data needs, should be

con sidered when evaluating the adequacy of the SLAMS network.



## Monitoring Objectives and Spatial Scales

Appendix D calls for the design of SLAMS networks to meet a minimum of six basic objectives:

1. Determine the highest pollutant concentrations expected in th e area covered by the network

.

2. Determine representative pollutant concentrations in areas of high population density

.

3. Determine the impact of significant sources or source categories on pollutant concentrations in

the ambient air

.

4. Determine general backgro und pollutant concentrations

.

5. Determine the regional extent of pollutant transport between populated areas

.

6. Determine the impacts (e.g., visibility impairment, vegetation effects) in more rural and remote

areas on the secondary (i.e., welfare) standards

.

SLAMS networks are designed to provide data for meeting the monitoring objectives described above

and to assist EPA and states in solving environmental problems.

Appendix D also provides guidance on spatial scales of representativeness for stations in a S LAMS

network (Table 1). Ideally, the monitor is located so that its sample represents the air quality over the

entire area that the monitoring station is intended to represent (Table 2).

## Number of State and Local Air Monitoring Stations (SLAMS)

Appendix D to 40 CFR Part 58 does not contain criteria for determining the total numb er of stations in

the SLAMS network, except for requiring a minimum number of SLAMS lead, SO 2 

### , and PM 2.5 

### sites.

For lead, EPA requires state and local agencies to focus their network design efforts on establishing

monitoring stations around lead stationar y sources which generate or have the potential to generate

exceedances of the quarterly lead NAAQS. Sources around which lead monitoring networks should be

established are those emitting half ton or more per year. Other factors affect the number of stati ons in

the network. S LAMS SO 2 

### monitoring requirements for counties not within the boundaries of any

Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical A rea/Metropolitan Statistical Area (CMSA/MSA) are based on the

emissions of SO 2 

### in the airshed. A minimum number of SO 2 

### SLAMS sites are required for targeted

sources of SO 2 

### emissions. Other than these requirements, the optimum size of a particular SLAMS

network involves tradeoffs between data needs and available resources, which can best be resolved

during the network design process.13 

# Appendix E Requirements

Appendix E contains siting criteria to be applied to ambient air quality analyzers or samplers after the

general site location has been selected based on the monitoring objectives and spatial sc ales of

representativeness presented in Appendix D and summarized in Section 2.1 of this document. The siting

criteria presented in Appendix E are summarized in Table 3.



## Other Ambient Air Monitoring Data Needs

Ecology uses nephelometers throughout Washin gton State. Nephelometers are used for a variety of

purposes, including the WAQA program, ambient air quality assessment

, and special studies

. Typically

, nephelometer monitoring sites utilize Federal Reference Method (FRM) or Federal Equivalent Method

(F EM) equipment for correlations and are operated in accordance with CFR requirements for quality

assurance and quality control. Ecology also occasionally uses SPMS de signation for criteria pollutant

monitoring sites , which allows Ecology to assess ambient levels within regions of the State, while

providing the flexibility to relocate the sites if it is determined there is no concern for NAAQS violations

in the area

, typically after three years of data collection. SPM S sites may be added to Ecology’s

SLAMS network when a NAAQS exceedance has been recorded, or if elevated pollutant concentrations

are consistently measured

## Network Review Procedure

Network Review Team and Pr eparation

Network report participants include Ecology’s Air Quality Program staff. Sufficient information is

provided to determine compliance of the network with regulatory network design and siting

requirements specified in 40 CFR Part 58, Appendices D a nd E as to determine compliance of the

network design and siting requirements specified for all special ambient air monitoring networks.



## Network Modifications

Modifications to the SLAMS network are addressed in 40 CFR 58.25, 58.36, and 58.46, respectively

. Under Section 58.25, States are required to annually develop and implement schedules to modify the

SLAMS network to eliminate any unnecessary stations or to correct an y inadequacies indicated by the

annual network review required by 58.20(d). As part o f the annual network review, evaluations of the

special networks established as partnership agreements between EPA and Ecology should also be

conducted. Modifications to these networks should be recommended as a result of this annual report.

An important objective of the network modification process is determining whether or not sufficient

ambient air quality information and data are being provided by the regulatory and other special

monitoring networks to satisfy the principal data needs. If sufficient air quality data are not being

collected, the deficient area must be identified and corrective action taken to resolve the problem.

Conversely, if it is determined that excessive data are being collected (e.g., there are redundant sites

resulting in data that agree closely), then efforts need to be taken to determine where disinvestment

should be made and on what schedule.

Network modifications may be initiated by EPA or proposed by Ecology and agreed to by EPA.

Network modifications may result from revi sions to the Part 58 regulations, systems audits, site visits, or

performance evaluations; special studies/saturation sampling, population increases/decreases; air quality

concentrations consis tently recorded below the NAAQS. L oss of permission to use a s ite; demolition of

a building which is used for monitoring; building construction; growth of trees; changes in roadways;

change in neighborhood type of use, etc.



## Determining Compliance with Appendix D and Special Monitoring

Requirements

Ecology uses this review to determine whether it is meeting the number of monitors required by the Part

58 Appendix D design criteria requirements, and whether the monitors properly located based on the

monitoring objectives and spatial scales of representativeness presente d in Appendix D.



## Number and Location of Monitors

For SLAMS, the number of monitors required and their locations are not specified in the regulations but

rather are determined by EPA Region 10 and Ecology on a case

- by

- case basis. EPA and Ecology ensure

th at SLAMS meet the monitoring objectives specified in Appendix D. Adequacy of the network is

be ing determined by using a variety of tools. Appropriate location of monitors can be determined on the

basis of stated objectives.15



### Monitor locations are based o n the objectives specified in Appendix D, Section 3. Most often, these

locations are those that have high concentrations and large population exposure. Population information

may be obtained from the latest census data and ambient monitoring data from AQ S. If zip codes for

various monitoring locations are obtained, use of electronic media census information and GIS

- based

information can be more easily combined with ambient monitoring data.

For special monitoring needs, program documents applicable to th e network must be reviewed to

determine the goals and specific siting criteria for the network. Compliance with monitoring objective

determinations of the special network should be conducted using procedures similar to those used for

Appendix D evaluation s (are the number of monitors appropriate and are the monitors properly located).



## Determining Compliance with Appendix E Requirements

Applicable siting criteria for SLAMS are specified in 40 CFR 58, Appendix E. The on

- site visit itself

consists of the ph ysical measurements and observations needed to determine compliance with the

Appendix E requirements, such as height above the ground level, distance from tr ees, paved or

vegetative ground cover, etc.

Thurston County Maintenance Area (Lacey PM 2.5 )

The Lacey College Street PM 2.5 nephelometer site (530670013) is being used to assure c ontinued compliance with

the PM 10 NAAQS as well as to confirm the Thurston County Maintenance Area (TCMA) continues to meet the

qualification criteria of EPA’s LMP approach.

A 5

- year NPM 10 design value below 98μg/m 3 demonstrates the TCMA continues to qual ify for the LMP

approach. The Lacey

- College Street nephelometer site ’s (53670013) 5

- year PM 10 design value estimate for 20 1 0

–

2014 was 4 3 μg/m 3

. The PM 10 design value estimate for 201 2

– 201 4 was 45 μg/m 3

. Th e current design value

estimates demonstrate the TCMA complies with the PM 10 standard and continues to meet EPA’s LMP

qualification criteria.

Kent, Seattle, and Tacoma PM 10 Maintenance Areas

Three

- and five

- year design values for the Kent, Seattle, and Tacoma PM 10 Maintenance Areas were calculated

usi ng the table look up method and the statistical fit method outline d in the LMP guidance document.

A 3

- year PM 10 design value of 150 μg/m 3 or below demonstrates continued compliance with the PM 10 NAAQS.

A 5

- year design value below 98 μg/m 3 is required to qualify for the LMP approach. Design values calculated

using the table look up method fall within the range of uncertainty of the statistical fit method. Because they are

the most conservative values, only the statistical fit values are presented here.

The PM 2.5 FEM TEOM at James St reet and Central Ave nue (530332004) is used to assure continued compliance

with the PM 10 NAAQS and to confirm continued eligibility for the LMP approach. The 2014 5

- year design value

is 4 9 ± 6 μg/m 3 and the 3

- year design value is 52 ± 6 μg/m 3

.

The PM 2.5 FEM TEOM at Seattle

- Duwamish (530330057) is used to assure continued compliance with the PM 10 NAAQS and to confirm continued eligibility for the LMPlan approach. The 2014 5

- year design value is 58±6

μg/m 3 and the 3

- year design va lue is 61 ± 7 μg/m 3

. Note: In 2014

, there was not a complete year of data due to

site relocation. The design values for Duwamish were calculated using the guidelines for incomplete data

outlined in Appendix B, page B

- 1, of the PM 10 SIP Development Guide.

The PM 2.5 Nephelometer at Tacoma

- Alexander Ave nue (530530031) is used to assure continued compliance with

the PM 10 NAAQS and to confirm continued eligibility for the L MP approach. The 2014 5

- year design value is

6 0 ±1 3 μg/m 3 and the 3

- year design value is 65±13 μg/m 3

Spokane County Maintenance Area (Spokane PM 10 )

The Spokane County Maintenance area design value is based on FRM and FEM 24

- hour PM 10 m onitoring data

from the Augusta Ave nue site (530630021) in Spokane. The LMP Guidance directs the design value be based on

the most recent five years ’ of data. The most recent five years of data is from 2010

– 2014 using a combination of

FRM and FEM data from the Augusta site.

A 5

- year PM 10 design value below 98 μg/m 3 demonstrates the Spokane County Maintena nce Area continues to

qualify for the LMP approach. The 5

- year PM 10 design value estimate for 2010

– 2014 was 80 μg/m 3

. For the 3

- year compliance with the PM 10 NAAQS

, the form of the standard is the number of 24

- hour exceedances of 150

μg/m 3 , averaged over three years. The 2014 PM 10 design value for Augusta Ave nue (530630021) is 0.4. This

design value is in attainment with the standard, which is not to exceed one

. The Spokane County Maintenance

Area complies with the PM 10 NAAQS and continues to meet EPA’ s LMP qualification criteria.

Additional Monitors: None.

Recommendations/Modif ications: Vancouver was relocated in 2014, Port Angeles in 2015

. ORCAA is

planning relocation of the Aberdeen site in 2015 for safety reasons.

Notes: Nephelometers are not EPA equivalent method instruments and design values are estimates. Ecology

uses WAQA for reporting PM 2.5 to inform and protect citizens of Washington. WAQA reporting is more

protective of human health. Ecology’s goal is to keep 24

- hour concentrations below 20μg/m 3

. In addition, some

monitors in areas of Washington are not intended to be solely NAAQS based.

Selected monitors are used for protection of human health by calling burn bans during home heating season,

making daily decisions for agricultural burning and health information

- reporting PM 2.5 values.

Ecology and its partners do not operate any seasonal PM 2.5 monitors.51

## Trace Gas Monitoring

NCore

– Precursor Gas & Multi

- Pollutant Monitoring

– From an emission source perspective,

multiple pollutants and their precursors are released simultaneously (e.g., a combustion plume with

nitrogen, carbon, hydrocarbon, mercury, sulfur gases, and particulate matter). Meteorological processes

that shape pollutant movement, atmospheric transformations, and removal act on all pollutants.

Numerous chemical and physical interactions underlie the dynamics of particle and ozone formation and

the ad herence of air toxics on surfaces of particles.

Overwhelming programmatic and scientific interactions across pollutants have demanded a movement

toward integrated air quality management. Multi

- pollutant air monitoring benefits health assessments

and emis sions strategy development. Health studies with access to multi

- pollutant data will be better

positioned to identify effects of different pollutants, particularly when concentration, composition, and

population types are included. Air quality models and source attribution methods used for strategy

development also benefit from the multi

- pollutant approach. Modelers will be able to perform more

robust evaluations by checking performance on several variables to ensure the model produces results

for correct reasons and not through compensating errors. As emission sources are characterized by a

multiplicity of pollutant releases, related source apportionment models yield more conclusive results

from use of multi

- pollutant measurements. Multi

- pollutant measu rements also streamline monitoring

operations and offer increased diagnostic capabilities to improve instrument performance.

The multi

- pollutant monitoring provided for these needs by starting to fill the measurement gaps that

have accumulated over the years. The objective of this strategy is to provide for the following important

needs:

 Improved data flow and timely reporting to the public

.

 Future NAAQS compliance determinations and revisions

.

 Support for development of emissions strategies

.

 Assess ef

fectiveness of air pollution control programs

.

 Data for scientific and health

- based studies

# Toxics

Collocated National Air Toxi cs Trend Site (NATTS)

- In addition to the STN and NCore Precursor

Gas Monitoring Programs, Beacon Hill is also a designated National Air Toxics Trend Site (NATTS).

The primary objectives of Washington’s NATTS Monitoring Program include but are not limite d to:

 Provide long

- term air toxic monitoring data in order to establish and track trends.

 Evaluate the air toxic program’s progress by characterizing air toxics concentrations, and

determining their spatial and temporal differences between cities and regi ons over time.

 Provide representative air toxic data to s upport exposure assessments (i.e.

, determine health

risks).

 Determine where air toxics emissions come from (source apportionment).

 Provide air toxic data for evaluating modeling results that are used for exposure assessments.

 Assess the effectiveness of the air toxic program’s emission reduction and control strategies.
