This document is designed to help one use the input files provided by EPA in HD GHG NPRM docket to run MOVES to produce the output EPA used to developed emission inventories for all the HD GHG alternatives. Code The version of the MOVES code used is 2009
- 12 - 21. This should be available on the MOVES website as MOVES2010 . Default database MOVESDB20100515 was used at the default database. This should be available on the MOVES website if not already part of the installation package. Input databases The input databases are used to change the default data in MOVES to reflect HD GHG rule alternatives. These databases are:  HDGHG_reference_20100426  HDGHG_control_20100618_reboundA  HDGHG_LHD45control_20100618_reboundA  HDGHG_eisAlt2_20100707_reboundA  HDGHG_eisA lt5_20100707_reboundA  HDGHG_epaALT8_20100812_reboundA  HDGHG_LHD 45 epaALT8_20100812_reboundA The samplevehiclepopulation table also needed to be modified to reflect proper sales and fleet distributions of the different segments of trucks. However, the vers ion of MOVES we ran does not allow for this table to be used in an input database. As a result, new default databases were created containing the updated samplevehiclepopulation table. These modified default databases are:  MOVESDB20100515_MHDHHD2b3  MOVES DB20100515_45  MOVESDB20100515_eisAlt3HHD  MOVESDB20100515_eisAlt3MHD These modified default databases work in concert with any input databases specified in the run spec. Run Specs Twenty- eight run specs are included. Seventeen runs are for the non
- GHG s and GHGs for calendar ye ars 2005, 2018, 2030, and 2050. Eleven runs are for annual GHGs from 2014 through 2050. CO 2 and CO 2 eq were not explicitly run. Instead, total energy consumption was run and post
- processed to calculat e CO 2 (by fuel), and methane and N 2 O were run separatel y.The run specs should already call up the appropriate modified default databases and user input databases , so no additional changes need to be made to the run specs, provided the names of the databases are unchanged
. Feel f ree to edit the name of the output databases to better suit your need. Air toxics are included in the gasoline runs, but not for diesel runs. Air toxics are post
processed for diesel vehicles. Th is version of MOVES code is especially slow if running air toxics. The batch file named “ HDGHG_2005 - 2018 - 2030 - 2050 - Annual_20100816.bat ” initiates MOVES and queues up all of the run specs. To save time, this batch file can be split up into two or more batch files and run on separate computers. You will likely need to edit the batch file so that the file paths for MOVES and the run specs match the locations on yo ur local hard drives. Not all alternatives were run explicitly in MOVES. Some alternatives are subsets of the alternatives run in MOVES and were therefore post
- processed
. Post - processing Post - processing was a necessary component to the inventory development for the following items:  Using reference inventories and activity for pre
- rule model years  APU emission rates for extended idling for combination long
- haul trucks  Diesel air toxics  Combining MOVES runs to produce inventories for all alternatives Post - processing was done using SAS software. Other software can be used to post
process if desired, but only SAS code is included. The included SAS code should automate most of the post
- processing. First, you must export both the four
- ye ar and annual MOVES emissions output (movesoutput table) and activity output (movesactivityoutput table) into four different CSV files. This can be done by executing th e following code in my SQL: Emissions : select movesrunID, yearID, pollutantID, processID, fueltypeID, sourcetypeID, modelyearID, emissionquant FROM `hdghgoutputnprm_20100722`.`movesoutput`; Activity : select movesrunID, yearID, fueltypeID, sourcetypeID, mod elyearID, activitytypeID, activity from hdghgoutputnprm_20100722.movesactivityoutput; (execute these for both the four
- ye ar and annual output databases; then export to CSV (e.g. through query

browser GUI)) Next, i n the SAS code, you must modify the file p aths to import the MOVES output CSV files data from the proper location and to the desired location on your hard drive.Then , in SAS, highlight all the text in the file and run. This should complete the post
processing. All pollutants in the NPRM inve ntories should be represented accuratel y. Certain other pollutants may be incomplete or extraneous (e.g. NMHC). Both the annual and four
- ye ar runs will be in a single file. You can separate this if you wish. Prashanth Gururaja Gururaja.Prashanth@epa.go v
