Promulgated on October 15, 2008 and effective Jan uary 12, 2009, U.S. EPA strengthened the National Ambi ent Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for lead from 1.5 ug/m 3 to 0.15 ug/m 3 [73 FR 66964]. Ohio currently has three partial counties designated nonattainment for lead.

As part of the promulgation of this revised standard, an expanded monitoring network was deployed by states beginni ng on January 1, 2010. Currently, Ohio

has a network of 13 lead monitors that hav e been in place for a number of years, and four new monitors as part of t he expanded monitori ng network. This expanded monitoring network c ontains source-specific moni tors sited at facilities with lead actual emissions greater than one ton per year; facilities with less than one ton per year of actual lead emissions where dispersion modeling identified the potential for emissions to contribute up to 50 percent of the lead standard in air; and facilities where existing monitors have shown a violation of the new standard, on a three-month rolling aver age, during 2006, 2007 or 2008.

Ohio’s initial designation (“first round”) recommendations were submitted to U.S. EPA on October 5, 2009. Those designation recommendations were based on air quality data collected between 2006 and 2008. U.S. EPA announced the final first round designations on November 16, 2010 with publication in the Federal Register on November 22, 2010 ( 75 FR 71033) . The first round designations are
effective December 31, 2010, Under Sect ion 107(D)(1)(b)(i) of the Clean Air Act, designations “may be extended by up to one year in the event the Administrator has insufficient information to promulgat e the designations.’’ [73 FR 67031] As part of the first round of des ignations, U.S. EPA recogniz ed states may not have

sufficient information from new monitors to make such a determination; therefore, U.S. EPA extended the deadline for designati ons of these areas by one year so

that data from the new monitors can be co nsidered in the designation decision. This submittal is Ohio’s updated re commendation for the “second round” of designations. The final decision on the second round of nonattainment area designations by U.S. EPA is expected to occur no later than October 15, 2011.

To determine if an area is attaining or not attaining the lead standard, the air quality analysis looks at t he rolling three-month average values for each monitor for a three-year period. For each eval uated year, twelve rolling three-month averages are computed starting with Novem ber of the preceding year and ending

with December of the year being evaluated. Complianc e with the lead standard is determined over a three-calendar-year per iod. Any one exceedance of a threemonth average during this period indicates an exceedance of the lead standard.

Because not all data are available for 2010 1 due to the time necessary for processing filters under t he standard Reference Method, additional designations during this second round will be based on t he most recent air quality data collected to date (2009 data and any data collected, analyzed and quality assured for 2010). Any violation of a three-mont h average during this period indicates an

exceedance of the lead standard.

1 At the time of this submittal, 2010 AQS data are available only through August.Page 2 of 19 40 CFR Part 50, Appendix R provides t he computation methods for the lead standard. This regulation requires individual samples be analyzed and a monthly mean computed. Under the old lead stand ard, Ohio EPA analyzed samples using a monthly composite method. Therefore, any historical data represented in this document use the monthly co mposite values to comput e the rolling three-month

values.

In the air quality data pres ented below, the three-month averages for monitors that are violating t he standard are high lighted in red. Monito ring sites that were missing one or months of a composite analysis in any th ree-month period or that

did not meet the 75% c apture criteria are highl ighted in yellow.

Data are retrieved from the U.S. EPA’s Air Quality System (AQS) at http://www.epa.gov/ttn/airs/airsaqs/ and are presented in ug/m 3 in all tables. AQS data retrieval sheets are provided in Appendix A. The St ate and local air monitoring stations (SLAMS) data certif ication report for calendar year 2009 is provided in Appendix B. It should be noted that the 2010 monitoring data will not be certified by the time th is submittal is required.



### Existing Monitors

Ohio EPA’s 2010 monitoring network desi gn plan retained 13 lead monitors across the State. In Ohio’s October 5, 2009 first round designation document, only three of these monitors showed violat ions of the 2008 revi sed lead standard. Therefore, Ohio EPA recommended th at these three areas be designated

nonattainment. Based on the additional data collected to date, and shown below,

there are no additiona l nonattainment areas. All other monitors continue to attain

the 2008 revised lead standard.

Therefore, Ohio EPA is not suggesting any additional areas monitored by the 13

retained lead monitors be designated nonattainment based upon the data

contained in this submittal.Page 3 of 19

If this value were substituted for all mi ssing samples, the monthly values, and 3- month averages, would still be well be low the standard of 0.15 ug/m3.



### New Monitors

Ohio EPA’s 2010 monitoring network desi gn plan included the addition of four

new lead monitors:

1. Cuyahoga County monitor 39-035- 0072 near American Spring Wire 2. Marion County monitor 39-101-0003 near Nucor Steel 3. Stark County monito r 39-151-0017 near Timken 4. Trumbull County monitor 39-155-0012 nea r Ellwood Engineering Castings

The tables below identify all monitoring data collected to date for each of these

sites. Based on available dat a, all monitors are attain ing the revised standard. There were no monthly violati ons or violations of a th ree-month rolling average at any of these sites.

Therefore, Ohio EPA is not suggesting that any additio nal areas monitored by the 4 new lead monitors be designated nona ttainment based upon the data contained

in this submittal.
