ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

AGENCY [FRL-9121-1]

Official Release ofthe MOVES2010 Motor Vehicle Emissions Model for Emissions Inventories in SIPs and Transportation Conformity

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ACTION: Notice ofavailability.

SUMMARY: EPA is approving and announcing the availability ofthe Motor Vehicle Emissions Simulator model (MOVES2010) for official use outside of California. MOVES2010 is the state-ofthe-art upgrade to EPA's modeling tools for estimating emissions from cars, trucks, motorcycles, andbuses, based on analysis ofmillions ofemission test results and considerable advances in the Agency's understanding ofvehicle emissions.

Today's notice approves the use of MOVES2010 in official State implementation air quality plan (SIP) submissions to EPA andfor certain transportation conformity analyses outside ofCalifornia. This notice starts

a two-year grace period before the MOVES2010 emission model isrequired
to be used in new regional emissions analyses for transportation conformity determinations outside ofCalifornia. EPA isnot approving MOVES2010 for project-level transportation conformity hot-spot analyses at this time; the Agency will approve the model for such analyses in the near future in a separate Federal Register notice when guidance is finalized.

EPA strongly encourages areas touse the interagency consultation process to examine howMOVES2010 will affect future transportation plan and transportation improvement program (TIP) conformity determinations so, if
necessary, SIPs and motorvehicle emissions budgets can be revised with MOVES2010 or transportation plans and TIPs can be revised as appropriate prior
to the end ofthe MOVES2010 conformity grace period. EPA also
encourages State and local air agencies
to consider howthe release of MOVES2010 will affect analyses supporting SIP submissions under development.
DATES: EPA's approval ofthe MOVES2010 emissions model for SIPs and regional emissions analyses for transportation conformity is effective March 2, 2010. As discussed further below, today's approval also starts a two-year transportation conformity
grace period which ends on March2, 2012, after which MOVES2010 is required to be used for new regional emissions analyses for transportation conformity.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For technical model questions regarding the official release or use ofMOVES2010, please e-mail EPA atmobile@epa.govor call (734) 214-4636. For questions about SIPs, contact Rudy Kapichak at Kapichak.Rudolph@epa.gov or (734) 214-4574.

I. WhatIs MOVES2010?

MOVES2010 isthe state-of-the-art upgrade to EPA's modeling tools for estimating emissions from highway vehicles, based on analysis ofmillions ofemission test results and considerable advances in the Agency's understanding ofvehicle emissions. Today's notice approves MOVES2010 as EPA's official
motor vehicle emissions factor model for estimatingvolatile organic compounds (VOCs), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), direct particulate matter (PM 1 

### oand PM2.5)and other precursors from cars, trucks, buses, and motorcycles by State and local agencies for SIP purposes and regional emissions analyses for transportation conformity outside of California. For these purposes, MOVES2010 replaces the previous emissions model, MOBILE6.2, which

was released in 2004 (69 FR 28830). 1

MOVES2010 improves upon MOBILE6.2 in several key respects. For example, MOVES2010 isbased on a review ofthe vast amount ofin-use vehicle data collected and analyzed since the release ofMOBILE6.2, including millions ofemissions
measurements from light-duty vehicles. Analysis ofthis data has enhanced

'Today's notice does not affect emissions model requirements within California, where the EMFAC2007 emissions model is currently approved for SIP purposes and for regional emissions analyses and CO hot-spot analyses for transportation conformity (73 FR 3464). EPA's understanding ofhow on-road mobile sources contribute to emissions inventories, and has also improved the agency's understanding ofthe relative effectiveness ofvarious control strategies. MOVES2010 has a databasecentered design that allows users much greater flexibility in organizing input and output data. This structure also allows EPA to update emissions data incorporated in MOVES2010 more easily.

MOVES2010 includes the capability
to estimate vehicle exhaust and evaporative emissions as well asbrake

wear and tire wear emissions for criteria pollutants and precursors. However, MOVES2010 does not include the capability to estimate emissions ofreentrained road dust. To estimate emissions from re-entrained road dust, practitioners should continue to use the latest approved methodologies.2

II. SIP Policy forMOVES2010

EPA has articulated its policy regarding the use ofMOVES2010 in SIP development in its "Policy Guidance on the Use ofMOVES2010 for State Implementation Plan Development, Transportation Conformity, and Other Purposes" (EPA-420-B-09-046, December 2009). Today's notice highlights certain aspects ofthe guidance, but State and local governments should refer to the guidance for more detailed information

on how and when to use MOVES2010 in reasonable further progress SIPs, attainment demonstrations, maintenance plans, inventory updates, and other SIP submission requirements.

Although MOVES2010 should be used in SIP development as expeditiously aspossible, EPA also recognizes the time and effort that States have already undertaken in SIP development using MOBILE6.2. SIPs that EPA has already approved are not required tobe revised solelybased on existence ofthe new model. States that have already submitted SIPs or will submit SIPs shortly after EPA's approval ofMOVES2010 are not required to revise these SIPs simplybecause anew motor vehicle emissions model isnow available. States can choose to use

2 SeeEPA's noticeof availability published inthe
Federal Register on May 19, 2004, 69 FR 28830- 28832. Also see EPA's memoranda: "Policy Guidance on the Use ofthe November 1, 2006, Updated to AP-42 for Re-entrained Road Dust for SIP Development and Transportation Conformity," August 2, 2007; and "Policy Guidance on the Use ofMOBILE6.2 and theDecember 2003 AP-42 Method for Re-entrained Road Dust for SIP Development and Transportation Conformity," February 24, 2004. These documents are available

on EPA's Web site at:http://www.epa.govlotaql stateresources/tninsconf/poicy.htm. MOVES2010 in these SIPs, for example, ifitis determined that it is appropriate
to update motorvehicle emissions budgets ("budgets")with the MOVES2010 model for future conformity determinations. However, EPA does not believe that a State's use ofMOBILE6.2 should be an obstacle to EPA approval for SIPs thathave been or will soon be submitted, assuming that such SIPs are otherwise approvable and significant SIP workhas already occurred (e.g., attainment modeling for

an attainment SIP has already been completed with MOBILE6.2). Itwould be unreasonable in such cases to require States to revise these SIPs with MOVES2010 since significant work has already occurred, and EPA intends to act on these SIPs in a timely manner.

States should use MOVES2010 where SIP development is inits initial stages

orhasn't progressed far enough along that switching toMOVES2010 would
create a significantly adverse impact on State resources. For example, States (except California) that willbe developing on-road mobile source inventories for 2006 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS SIPs shouldbase those inventories on MOVES2010. EPA designated nonattainment areas forthis NAAQS on November 13, 2009 (74 FR 58688), which should give State and local agencies time to incorporate MOVES2010 into SIP submissions for this NAAQS. MOVES2010 should be incorporated into these and other SIPs,

as appropriate, since MOVES2010 emissions estimates are based on the best information currently available, as required by Clean Air Act section 172(c)(3) and 40 CFR 51.112(a)(1).

III. TransportationConformityPolicy for MOVES2010

EPA is establishing a two-year grace period before MOVES2010 is required for new transportation plan and TIP conformity determinations and regional emissions analyses. This grace period begins today and ends March 2, 2012. The remainder ofthis section describes how the transportation conformity grace period was determined and summarizes how itwill be implemented, including those circumstances when the grace period couldbe shorter than two years. However, for complete explanations of how MOVES2010 is tobe implemented for transportation conformity, including details about using MOVES2010 during the grace period, refer to "Policy Guidance on the Use ofMOVES2010 for State Implementation Plan Development, Transportation Conformity, and Other Purposes" (EPA420-B-09-046, December 2009). EPA coordinated closely with the U.S.

Department ofTransportation (DOT)in the establishment ofthe grace period.

A. Length ofConformity GracePeriod

Transportation conformity is a Clean Air Act requirement to ensure that Federally supported highway and transit activities are consistent with ("conform to") the SIP. Conformity to a SIP means that a transportation activity will not cause or contribute to new air quality violations; worsen existing violations; or delay timely attainment of the national ambient air quality standards or any interim milestone. Transportation conformity applies in nonattainment and maintenance areas for transportation-related pollutants:
ozone, carbon monoxide (CO), PM2.5, PM10, and nitrogen dioxide.

The transportation conformity rule (40 CFR parts 51 and 93) requires that conformity determinations be based on the latest motor vehicle emissions model approved by EPA. Section 176(c)(1) ofthe Clean Air Act states that " * * 

### [t]he determination of conformity shall be based on the most recent estimates of emissions, and such estimates shall be determined fromthe
most recent population, employment, travel, and congestion estimates * * *." When EPA approves a new emissions model such as MOVES2010, a grace period is established before the model is required for conformity analyses. The conformity rule provides for a grace period for new emissions models of between three and 24 months (40 CFR 93.111(b)(1)).

EPA articulated its intentions for establishing the length of a conformity grace period in the preamble to the 1993 transportation conformity rule (58 FR 62211):

EPA andDOT will consider extending the grace period ifthe effects ofthe new emissions model are so significant that previous SIP demonstrations ofwhat emissionlevels are consistent with attainment would be substantially affected. In such cases, States should have an opportunity to revise their SIPs before MPOs [metropolitan planning organizations] must

use the model's new emissions factors.
In consultation with DOT, EPA must consider many factors when establishing a grace period for conformity determinations, including the degree of change in emissions models and the effects ofthe new model

onthe transportation planning process (40 CFR 93.111(b)(2)).

Upon consideration ofall ofthese factors, EPA is establishing a two-year grace period, which begins today and ends on March 2, 2012, before MOVES2010 is required tobe used for regional transportation conformity purposes. During this grace period,

areas should use the interagency consultation process to examine the impact ofusing MOVES2010 in their future transportation plan and TIP conformity determinations and regional emissions analyses.

B. CircumstancesWhen GracePeriod Will Be ShorterThan Two Years

The grace period will be shorter than
two years for a given pollutant ifan area revises its SIP and budgets with MOVES2010, and such budgets become applicable for regional conformity
purposes prior to the end ofthe twoyear grace period. In this case, the new regional emissions analysis mustuse MOVES2010 ifthe conformity determination is based on a MOVES2010-based budget.

Areas that are designated nonattainment or maintenance for multiple pollutants mayrely on both MOVES2010 and MOBILE6.2 to determine conformity for different pollutants during the grace period. For example, ifan area revises a previously submitted (butnot approved) MOBILE6.2-based PM10 SIP with MOVES2010 and EPA finds these revised MOVES2010 budgets adequate for conformity, suchbudgets would apply for conformity on the effective date ofthe Federal Register notice announcing EPA's adequacy finding. In this example, ifan area was in nonattainment for PM10 and ozone, the MOVES2010 grace period would end for PM10 once EPA found the new MOVES2010-based SIP budgets adequate. However, MOBILE6.2 could continue tobe used for ozone conformity determinations until the end ofthe MOVES2010 grace period.3EPA Regional Offices should be consulted for questions regarding such situations in multi-pollutant areas.

In addition, ifan area revises a previously approved SIP using MOVES2010, the revised MOVES2010 budgets wouldbe used for conformity purposes once EPA approves the MOVES2010 SIP revision, in most cases. In general, submitted SIPs cannot supersede approved budgets until they

are approved. However, 40 CFR 93.118(e)(1) allows an approved budget
to be replacedby an adequate budget if EPA's approval ofthe initial budgets specifies thatthe budgets being

3In this example, such an area would use MOVES2010 to develop a regional emissions analysis for comparison to the revised MOVES2010- based budgets (e.g., PM 10 andNOx budgets). The regional emissions analysis for ozone could be based on MOBILE6.2 for the VOC and NOx budgets in the ozone SIP for theremainder ofthe conformity
grace period. approved maybe replaced in the future by new adequate budgets. This flexibility has been used in limited situations in the past, such as duringthe transition from MOBILE5 to MOBILE6. In such cases, the MOVES2010-based budgets wouldbe used for conformity
purposes once they havebeen found adequate, ifrequested bythe State in its SIP submission and specified in EPA's SIP approval. States should consult with their EPA Regional Office to determine ifthis flexibility applies to their situation.

C. Use of MOVES2010 Duringthe Grace Period

During the conformity grace period,

areas should use the interagency consultation process to examine how MOVES2010 will impact their future transportation plan and TIP conformity determinations and any regional emissions analyses. Areas should carefully consider whether the SIP and budgets shouldbe revised with MOVES2010 or iftransportation plans and TIPs should be revised before the end ofthe conformity grace period, since doing so maybe necessary to

ensure conformity in the future.

Regional emissions analyses that are started during the grace period can use either MOBILE6.2 or MOVES2010. When the grace period ends on March 2, 2012, MOVES2010 willbecome the only approved motorvehicle emissions model for regional emissions analyses for transportation conformity in States other than California. In general, this

means that all new transportation plan and TIP conformity determinations started after the end ofthe grace period
must be based on MOVES2010, even if the SIP isbased on MOBILE6.2.

Finally, the conformity rule provides

some flexibility for regional emissions analyses that are started before the end ofthe grace period. Analyses thatbegin before or during the grace period may continue to rely on MOBILE6.2. The interagency consultation process should be used ifitis unclear ifaMOBILE6.2- based analysis was begun before the end ofthe grace period. Ifyou have questions about which model shouldbe used in your conformity determination, you can also consult with your EPA Regional Office.
