## 1. Emission Inventory Methodology

The Air Pollution Control Division (APCD) deve loped the 2006 and 2020 emission inventories in

the “PM10 Maintenance Plan for Cañon City” using U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

approved emissions modeling methods, including EPA’s MOBILE6 model and local VMT data

for on

- road mobile source emis sions, EPA’s non

- road model, local demographic information for

area and off

- road sources, and reported actual emissions for point sources. Estimates for future

emissions are based on the above

- mentioned tools and the EPA’s Economic Growth and Analysis

Syst em (EGAS) model for estimating future point sources activity, and VMT growth for on

- road

mobile sources.

Highway mobile source emissions are from the EPA model MOBILE6, an emission factor model

for predicting gram per mile emissions of Hydrocarbons (HC), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Nitrogen

Oxides (NOx), Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 

### ), Particulate Matter (PM), and toxics from cars, trucks, and

motorcycles under various conditions.

Non

- road source emissions are from the EPA Non

- Road Model. This model includes the impact of

future controls on non

- road engines, which is used in equipment such as lawn and garden

equipment and construction equipment.

Area source emissions (including heating, construction, railroads, etc.) are from the 2002 EPA

National Emissions Inventory ( NEI), grown to 2006 and 2020 by population growth from data

from the State. For more documentation for these categories, refer to the NEI documentation

(EPA, 2008).

Under Air Quality Control Commission Regulation No. 3, the APCD requires any source that

emits two tons per year or greater to submit an Air Pollutant Emission Notice (APEN) (APCD,

2008). This means that sources that emit less than two tons per year are not necessarily accounted

for in an emissions inventory. The point source emissions for C añon City were obtained from this

tracking system. The emission estimates are made using a variety of methodologies. Data from

source

- specific emission tests, or continuous emission monitors are preferable, but not always

available. The EPA has develope d a variety of emission factors to estimate emissions as well.

Emission factors are frequently the best or only method available for estimating emissions.Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment / Air Pollution Control Division
