National Core (NCore) Multi-pollutant Monitoring Stations: 

In October 2006 the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued final 

amendments to the ambient air monitoring regulations for criteria pollutants. These 

amendments are codified in 40 CFR parts 53 and 58. The purpose of the amendments 

was to enhance ambient air quality monitoring to better serve current and future air 

quality needs. One of the most significant changes in the regulations was the requirement 

to establish National Core (NCore) multi-pollutant monitoring stations. These stations 

will provide data on several pollutants at lower detection limits and replace the National 

Air Monitoring Station (NAMS) networks that have existed for several years. The final 

network plan must be submitted to EPA by July 1, 2009, and the stations must be 

operational by January 1, 2011. 

In 2007, EPA provided funding to the Louisville Metro Air Pollution Control District 

(LMAPCD) to begin the process of establishing an NCore station in Jefferson County. In 

January 2008, the Kentucky Division for Air Quality delegated the responsibility for 

establishing and operating an NCore station to the District. Upon evaluating the existing 

network, historical data, census data, meteorology, and topography the District 

recommends that the SLAMS site located at 2730 Cannons Lane be designated as the 

NCore site for the Louisville-Jefferson County CBSA. 

Monitoring Objectives: 

The NCore Network addresses the following monitoring objectives: 

• timely reporting of data to the public through AIRNow, air quality forecasting, 

and other public reporting mechanisms 

• support development of emission strategies through air quality model evaluation 

and other observational methods 

• accountability of emission strategy progress through tracking long-term trends of 

criteria and non-criteria pollutants and their precursors 

• support long-term health assessments that contribute to ongoing reviews of the 

National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) 

• compliance through establishing nonattainment/attainment areas by comparison 

with the NAAQS 

• support multiple disciplines of scientific research, including public health, 

atmospheric and ecological 

Site Configuration: 

The NCore sites must measure at a minimum PM2.5 particle mass using continuous and 

integrated/filter based samplers, speciated PM2.5, PM10-2.5 (PM10c) particle mass, speciated 

PM10-2.5 particle mass, O3, SO2, CO, NO/NOy, wind speed, wind direction, relative humidity, 

and ambient temperature. Table 1 provides a list of the sampling equipment and 

methodology currently used and proposed for the Cannons Lane NCore site

Quality Assurance Status: 

All Quality Assurance procedures shall be implemented in accordance with 40 CFR 58, 

Appendix A. The District’s current Quality Assurance Project Plan covers PM2.5, Ozone, 

NOx, SO2, CO, PM2.5 Speciation, and meteorological measurements. The Quality Assurance 

Project Plan will be revised to include trace level measurements and lead. Standard operating 

procedures manuals will be adopted or developed for new instrumentation. 

Area of Representativeness: 

40 CFR Part 58 Appendix D provides design criteria for ambient air monitoring. The 

monitoring objective for the NCore site is to produce data that represents a fairly large area 

and therefore the spatial scale of the site is important. The spatial scale defines the physical 

dimensions of the air parcel nearest to a monitoring site throughout which actual pollutant 

concentrations are reasonably similar. It is determined by the characteristics of the area 

surrounding the air monitoring site and the site’s distance from nearby air pollution sources 

such as roadways, factories, etc. In the case of urban NCore the spatial scales to be used are 

neighborhood and urban. Table 2 shows the area of representativeness for each pollutant for 

the Cannons Lane site. 

Table 2: Spatial Scales for Each Pollutant 

Pollutant Spatial Scale Comments 

Ozone Neighborhood and Urban Scale Use 10 km

Carbon Monoxide Neighborhood Scale There is no Urban scale for CO

PM10/PM2.5/Lead Urban 

Radiation Urban 

VOCs Neighborhood 

For neighborhood scale the area covered is up to a 4 km radius around the air monitoring site. 

This area is a mix of commercial, light industrial, and residential. Approximately 20% of the 

total population for Jefferson County lives within a 4 km radius of the site. This scale also 

includes 36 schools, 3 hospitals, 6 parks and 3 large shopping venues. 

Urban scale is 4 km up to 50 km. 50 km would cover the entire MSA and overlap the current 

monitoring network. Dropping the scale down to 10 km covers most of the urban core and a 

portion of the MSA currently not covered by air monitoring. On a 10 km scale the land use 

varies from light to heavy industrial, commercial and dense residential. Approximately 50% 

of the total population for Jefferson County lives within 10 km of the site.

The proposed NCore site is located east of the urban core and north east of the heavier 

industrialized areas of the metro area. The wind rose (Parameter MPH) indicates the 

prevailing wind directions while the pollution roses show the distributions of PM2.5 and 

ozone readings within the 16 quadrants. The placement of the NCore site east of the 

urban core provides the best location for measuring transport and secondary pollutant 

formation from that area. The placement of the NCore site downwind of the more 

industrialized areas compliments the existing network which, is primarily designed to 

measure maximum concentration on a neighborhood scale. An added bonus would be 

measurement of transport from the NNE and NE quadrants which although monitored by 

sites in Southern Indiana, are not effectively addressed by sites located in Kentucky.

NCore and PM2.5 SLAMS Siting Criteria

Appendix E to 40 CFR Part 58-Probe and Monitoring Path Siting Criteria for Ambient 

Air Quality Monitoring contains specific location criteria applicable to NCore and 

SLAMS siting. The following measurements and data were obtained for evaluation of 

compliance with the criteria. 

1. Horizontal Placement of Sampling Probes: 

The gaseous instruments will be placed in a 10’w x 16’l x 8’h air monitoring 

shelter to be located approximately 45 meters behind the (VET) building. The 

The station is located on property leased by 

LMAPCD. The property was used as a 

Vehicle Emissions Testing (VET) center but 

is now used primarily for storage. The 

location is in the NE quadrant of Jefferson 

County and is approximately 9 km from the 

urban core of Metro Louisville. 

X 

B-8
sample inlet(s) for CO, SO2, NOx, and O3 will be approximately 2 meters above 

the roof of the shelter and 4.5 meters above ground level. The sample inlet probe 

for the NOy sampler will be placed on a 10 meter nested tower. 

The manual particulate samplers are on a wooden deck near the sampling shelter. 

The height of the inlets of the particulate samplers varies between 2-3 meters. 

Separation of the samplers on the deck varies from 1-2 meters depending on the 

flow rate of the samplers. 

The continuous particulate sampler is currently on the deck but will be moved to 

the roof of the air monitoring shelter once it is installed. The inlet will be 2 

meters above the roof and 4.5 meters above ground. The control unit will be 

located inside the temperature controlled shelter. 

2. Spacing from Obstructions: 

VET Office/garage (h=7.5 meters): 45 meters 

Large Pine to the North West (estimated h=8 meters): from drip line 20 meters 

 Small Pine to the North West (estimated h=5 meters): from drip line 14 meters

Site Details: 

The photograph above was taken looking toward the NE and shows the sampling 

platform which is 8’w x 14’l and 18”h. The sample inlets are between 2-3 meters above 

the ground. The platform supports the PM2.5 FRM, the PM10c, PM2.5 Speciation, URG 

Carbon, and the RadNet sampler. It also has room for lead sampling if needed and room 

for the PEP audit equipment. Electrical service to the platform is 100 amps with 5 (20 

amp GFCI) outlets strategically placed on the platform to provide power to the 

instruments. 

The air monitoring shelter will be located on the concrete pad in front of the site and 

approximately 6 meters from the sampling platform. The shelter will be 10’w x 16’l x 

8’h. The roof of the shelter will be flat to support the sample inlets for the continuous 

particulate sampler(s) and has additional room for other samplers if the need arises. The 

10 meter meteorological tower will be next to the shelter and will be of the “nested” type 

to insure that the NOy convertor is kept vertical and to ease servicing and calibration of 

the meteorological instruments. The shelter will be wired for 200 amp service and have 

internet and telephone connections. To maintain temperatures between 30-40 o C the 

shelter will have a 24,000 BTU heat pump with a digital programmable thermostat. The 

shelter insulation will be a minimum R-18. Once the shelter has been installed the chain 

link fence will be extended to enclose the entire site.

AERMOD Modeling Analysis in Support of the Lead 

NAAQS Waiver Requests for the State of Kentucky 

Introduction 

On November 12, 2008, the United States Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA) strengthened the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for lead. 

The revised standard is now set at 0.15 μg/m3

 for the primary (health-based) and 

secondary (welfare-based) standards. In conjunction with the revision of the lead 

NAAQS, the EPA promulgated new network design criteria, which can be found 

in 40 CFR Part 58, Appendix D, paragraph 4.5. Source-oriented monitoring is 

required for those facilities which emit 1.0 ton per year (tpy) or more of lead in the 

air. 

The Kentucky Division for Air Quality (Division) received formal notification from 

EPA Region 4 in April 2009 of the sources within the Commonwealth that were 

subject to lead monitoring per the revised regulations. Those seven facilities are 

listed in this document as Appendix A: Kentucky Facilities with Lead 

Emissions over 1.0 TPY. The facilities include: American Electric Power – Big 

Sandy Plant (Big Sandy), in Louisa, KY; Calgon Carbon in Catlettsburg, KY; 

Enersys in Richmond, KY; Newpage in Wickliffe, KY; North American Stainless 

(NAS) in Ghent, KY; Superior Battery in Russell Springs, KY; and Tennessee 

Valley Authority (TVA) Shawnee Fossil Plant in West Paducah, KY. 

Section 4.5(ii) of Appendix D to 40 CFR 58 contains waiver provision for sourceoriented lead monitoring, if a state or local agency can demonstrate that the lead 

source will not contribute to a maximum lead concentration in ambient air in 

excess of one-half of the Pb NAAQS (i.e., 0.075 μg/m3

). Consequently, the 

Division has modeled the facilities to determine whether or not to pursue waivers. 

Additionally, recent Kentucky Emissions Inventory data has been reviewed for 

this purpose. 

Emissions Inventory Data 

The Division’s Emissions Inventory Section (EIS) has compiled calculations for 

2006-2008 data for those seven facilities listed in the aforementioned Appendix 

A: Kentucky Facilities with Lead Emissions over 1.0 TPY. 

Emissions Inventory Reports for all seven facilities are included with this 

document on a compact disc (CD) for review. The CD (labeled KY DAQ EIS 

Data) also contains Kentucky Emissions Inventory data files for 2006, 2007, and 

2008, as well as permits for the facilities in question. Table 1 shows the results of 

the recent EIS calculations.

Selection Criteria for the Modeled Facilities 

Pursuant to 40 CFR Part 58, Appendix D, paragraph 4.5(a), monitoring agencies 

must use the most recent National Emissions Inventory (NEI) or other 

scientifically justifiable data to determine if a facility emits more than 1 tpy of lead. 

The Division, at the direction of EPA Region 4, chose to use both state emissions 

inventory data and Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) data from 2006 and 2007. 40 

CFR Part 58 Appendix D 4.5 (ii) states: “The Regional Administrator may waive 

the requirement in paragraph 4.5(a) for monitoring near lead (Pb) sources if the 

State or, where appropriate, local agency can demonstrate the Pb source will not 

contribute to a maximum Pb concentration in ambient air in excess of 50% of the 

NAAQS (based on historical monitoring data, modeling, or other means).” The 

lead NAAQS is based on a 3-month rolling average. 

Model Parameters 

Urban versus Rural Determination 

The facilities modeled in this analysis were all modeled as rural. The rural setting 

was chosen based on the population density procedure as stated in Section 

7.2.3(d) of 40 CFR 51, Appendix W. In addition, none of the facilities modeled fall 

into a highly industrialized category as mentioned subsequently in Section 

7.2.3(e) of Appendix W. 

Meteorological Data 

In compliance with the EPA air quality modeling guideline found in Section 8.3 of 

40 CFR Part 51, Appendix W, the modeling performed for each facility relied on 

five years of consecutive meteorological data taken from the most representative 

surface and upper air meteorological stations. A summary of general 

meteorological modeling data can be found in Table 2. The meteorological data 

C-3
KY Division for Air Quality 

Lead Waiver Request 

Page 3 of 73 

years were chosen in part due to their availability and the completeness of the 

data. Unfortunately, the funding for more recent data for this particular project, 

which is in excess of $3,150, was not available. Therefore, the facilities were 

modeled with meteorological data ranging from 1988 to 1992, or 1989 to 1993, 

which is free to the public. Data sets deemed complete for the respective five 

years were chosen.

Representativeness/Surface Characteristics 

According to the AERMOD Implementation Modeling Guidelines, the 

meteorological stations should be representative of the facility. The National 

Weather Service (NWS) meteorological stations chosen for each facility 

depended on the facility’s location, topography, land use, and surface 

characteristics in reference to each facility. The surface roughness values at 

each facility were compared against the surface roughness values of the 

respective meteorological surface station and modeled separately to determine 

the difference in surface characteristics between them. In the interest of being 

conservative towards human health, the surface characteristics which yielded the 

highest monthly concentration were used in calculating the 3-month rolling 

average. The surface roughness data (albedo, bowen ratio, and surface 

roughness values) for each of these facilities and meteorological stations can be 

found in Appendix B: AERSURFACE Tables. Surface roughness parameters 

are tabulated in Table 3. In AERSURFACE, the default 1 km radius was chosen, 

temporal resolution was set to “monthly”, 12-30o averaged sectors were used 

throughout the analysis, and the application site coordinates were set to the 

facility.

The land use was classified based on the 1992 National Land Cover Data (NLCD 

92) which is available from the USGS. The NLCD 92 contains a 21-category land 

cover classification, which is based on Landsat imagery. 

Pollutant Averaging 

The pollutant averaging time was set to 1-month. The 1-month average was 

converted to a 3-month rolling average using the lead post processor, which is 

available from EPA at http://www.epa.gov/ttn/amtic/pb-monitoring.html. 

Building Downwash 

Building downwash was not deemed necessary for facilities with very tall stacks, 

such as those found at coal-fired power plants. The stack heights for both AEP 

Big Sandy and TVA Shawnee exceed the Good Engineering Practices (GEP) 

stack heights. In addition, any facility significantly over or under the 0.075 μg/m3

lead concentration on a 3-month rolling average did not have the building 

downwash (BPIP) algorithm applied in the model. Therefore, building downwash 

was only applied to the modeling for Superior Battery based on preliminary 

modeling showing a 3-month rolling average concentration at one-half the lead 

NAAQS. 

Lead Emission Sources 

The lead sources for each facility are tabulated in Appendix C of this document. 

The emission sources are based on the emissions data of the year that triggered 

the analysis as found in Appendix A. 

AEP Big Sandy and TVA Shawnee are both electric utilities. AEP Big Sandy uses 

2 pulverized coal (pc) combustors. In the case of TVA Shawnee, 9 pc’s and 1 

bubbling fluidized bed combustor are used. In addition, both facilities have 

smaller auxiliary units. Hence, their lead emissions primarily stem from the 

combustion of coal. Enersys and Superior Battery are both battery 

manufacturers. Their lead emissions are related to battery plating and 

manufacture. Calgon Carbon produces activated carbon and carbon-based 

media. Their primary feedstock is bituminous coal, which is also the source 

material for their lead emissions. Newpage is a paper producer whose primary 

lead emission point is their combination boiler. North American Stainless 

produces stainless steel and their primary lead emissions are from a furnace.

Receptors/Terrain 

As stated in Section 8.2.2 of Appendix A to Appendix W of 40 CFR 51, “Receptor 

sites for refined modeling should be utilized in sufficient detail to estimate the 

highest concentration and possible violations of a NAAQS or PSD increment. In 

designing a receptor network, the emphasis should be placed on receptor 

resolution and location, not total number of receptors. The selection of receptor 

sites should be a case-by-case determination taking into consideration the 

topography, the climatology, monitor sites, and the results of the initial screening 

procedure.” 

The receptor grid parameters (spacing and number of receptors) were chosen in 

a way to encompass a majority of the plume as well as the significant impact 

area (SIA) in which the maximum impact occurs. The receptor grids are 

optimized to have the maximum concentration occur within a 100x100 meter grid. 

This is achieved by either expanding a tiered receptor grid or including a 

separate (uniform Cartesian) grid to cover the maximum impact area. 

Digital Elevation Maps (DEM) or National Elevation Data (NED) maps available 

from the USGS were used for the AERMAP processor for each facility. 

Table 4 provides a summary of parameters used in AERMOD, which includes the 

number and distance between receptors, whether building downwash was used, 

whether plant boundaries were defined, and what type of terrain data was 

chosen for the facilities.

Non-Default Parameters 

The Division used a non-default option in the control pathway. The toxics nondefault option was chosen to access the total deposition output. In the source 

pathway, particulate was selected for gas and particle deposition. Method 2 was 

selected for handling particle deposition by total particulate mass. Particle inputs 

for Method 2 consisted of the fine particle fraction equaling 0.75 and the mass 

mean particle diameter equaling 0.5 microns. These values were selected from 

Appendix B of the AERMOD Deposition Algorithms - Science Document 

(Revised Draft) found on EPA’s Support Center for Regulatory Air Models 

(SCRAM) website at http://www.epa.gov/scram001/7thconf/aermod/aer_scid.pdf.

Upon review, the output concentrations from the models show that Calgon 

Carbon, Enersys, and Superior Battery substantially surpass the modeled 

ambient concentration required to receive a waiver and indicate a modeled 

exceedance of the new lead NAAQS. Data in Table 5 also illustrate that the 3-

month rolling averages for AEP Big Sandy, Newpage, TVA Shawnee, and North 

American Stainless are substantially below one-half the lead NAAQS. 

Modeled Plots 

Plots of the modeled high 1st high monthly impacts for the facilities can be found 

in Appendix D of this document. These figures are contour plots of the ambient 

lead concentrations as modeled. Please note, the concentration shown in the 

figures do not represent a 3-month rolling average but instead represent the 

highest monthly impact for the meteorological years chosen. Receptors are not 

placed within plant boundaries for the facilities that have defined fence lines. Air 

within the plant boundary of these facilities are represented as white areas. The 

facilities without defined physical barriers delineating the property line have 

receptors within their plant boundaries in accordance with the definition of 

ambient air found in 40 CFR 50.1(e). These facilities boundaries are depicted as 

red boundary lines. 

Conclusion 

As mentioned previously, modeling has demonstrated that a waiver for 

monitoring lead at AEP Big Sandy, Newpage, TVA Shawnee, and North 

American Stainless can be requested based upon a maximum 3-month rolling 

average at or below one-half the lead NAAQS. The Calgon Carbon, Enersys, and 

Superior Battery facilities emissions have been modeled and shown to exceed 

one-half the lead NAAQS. Therefore, Calgon Carbon, Enersys, and Superior 

Battery should be monitored in accordance with 40 CFR Part 58, Appendix D, 

paragraph 4.5(a). 

Additional Information 

Data has been complied for each facility and is available on the attached 

compact disc (CD) labeled KY DAQ Lead Modeling Data: AERMOD. Each

Introduction: 

On November 12, 2008 the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) strengthened 

the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for lead to increase protection of public 

health and the environment. Since 1978 the ambient air lead standards have been set at 1.5μg/m3

and were based on a quarterly average. The new revised standards are set at 0.15μg/m3 for the 

primary (health-based) and the secondary (welfare-based) standards and are calculated using a 

3-month rolling average. In conjunction with the revision of the lead NAAQS, the EPA 

promulgated new monitoring requirements which can be found in 40 CFR Part 58, Appendix D. 

One of the requirements is to evaluate the adequacy of existing source oriented lead monitoring 

networks and/or to determine if additional lead monitoring networks are needed. The deadline 

for this review and the identification of source oriented lead monitoring sites is July 1, 2009 with 

monitoring to begin January 1, 2010. Based on this requirement and guidance issued by EPA the 

Louisville Metro Air Pollution Control District (LMAPCD) has evaluated historical data as well 

as current emissions inventories to determine the applicability and design of a source oriented 

lead monitoring network in Jefferson County, Kentucky. 

Wavier Provisions: 

40 CFR Part 58 Appendix D, Section 4.5(ii) contains waiver provisions for source oriented lead 

monitoring. Monitoring may be waived for sources if the state or local agency can demonstrate 

that the lead source will not contribute to a maximum lead concentration in ambient air in excess 

of 50% of the NAAQS (0.075μg/m3). This demonstration may be based on historical monitoring 

data, modeling, or other means. 

Evaluation of Historical Data: 

LMAPCD operated a lead monitoring network designed to monitor mobile and facility emissions 

during the period of (1980-1997). The monitoring was conducted according to the methods 

listed in 40 CFR Part 50 Appendix G Reference Method for the Determination of Lead in 

Suspended Particulate Matter Collected from Ambient Air. Removal of lead from automotive 

gasoline and the installation of particulate control systems at facilities resulted in a sharp decline 

in lead emissions and as measured levels declined the monitoring network was reduced to just 

two sites in 1988. Based on recommendations made by EPA and the fact that measured levels 

were significantly below the NAAQS, LMAPCD discontinued lead monitoring in 1997 to free 

up resources for the upcoming PM2.5 monitoring program. Table 1 and Chart 1 provide a 

summary of the data collected by that network. Although the averaging method used for the old 

standard is different the data indicate that at the end of the lead monitoring program, the 

maximum quarterly averages were approximately 13% of the new NAAQS.

West Jefferson Air Toxics Study 

From April 2000-April 2001, LMAPCD conducted an air toxics study for West Jefferson 

County. A component of that study was the collection of metals which included lead. Samples 

were collected every 12 days using the Hi-Volume method prescribed in 40 CFR Part 50 

Appendix G. The samples were analyzed at EPA’s Science and Ecosystem Support Division 

(SESD) laboratory in Athens, Georgia using ICP/MS. According to SESD the typical detection 

limit using this method was 0.0006024μg/m3. Table 2 contains a summary of the 3-month 

rolling averages from that data. The numbers in Bold are the maximum 3-month rolling average 

values for each site. The maximum 24-hour value recorded was 0.035μg/m3.

Identification of Lead Sources: 

40 CFR Part 58, Appendix D, Section 4.5(a) requires monitoring at sources that emit 1.0 ton per 

year (tpy) or more of lead to the air. Monitoring agencies must use the most recent National 

Emissions Inventory (NEI) data or other scientifically justifiable methods and data to determine 

if a facility emits more than 1.0 tpy. Based on a review of the latest National Emissions 

Inventory data, 2006-2007 local inventory data and a review of the 2006-2007 Toxics Release 

Inventory (TRI) data, LMAPCD has identified the Louisville Gas & Electric Mill Creek facility 

as the only source in Jefferson County that emits more than 1.0 tpy of lead to the air. The 2005 

NEI data for LG&E Mill Creek indicates their emissions were 0.97 tpy.

Modeling Parameters: 

Using guidance provided in EPA’s “Technical Note-Dispersion Modeling for Lead (Pb) 

Sources” LMAPCD conducted dispersion modeling for the Mill Creek facility using the 

AERMOD model for near-field dispersion. The modeling performed relied on five years of 

meteorological data taken from the most representative surface and upper air meteorological 

stations. For surface, meteorological data for years 1989-1993 from the Louisville International 

Airport were used. The airport is approximately 18 km north east of the facility and has similar 

topography. For upper air, meteorological data for 1989-1993 were used from the Dayton 

Wright Patterson Air Force Base. The 1989-1993 data sets were used because they were the 

most complete. 

 

Source Pathway –Source Inputs 

The LG&E Mill Creek facility is a coal fired electric utility that uses 4 commercial boilers (units) 

for generation of electricity via steam turbines and generators. The combined generating capacity 

of the 4 units is approximately 1,610 MW. Most of the lead emissions are attributed to the 

combustion of coal and the annual emission rates were calculated using updated throughputs and 

AP-42 emission factors for controlled coal combustion sources. Each unit utilizes emissions 

control equipment consisting of an electrostatic precipitator, a sulfur dioxide removal system and 

a dry centrifugal dust collector for the coal bunker. The final emission points are four individual 

stacks that are approximately 182 meters high. Table 4 contains the source inputs for each stack.

Other inputs used in the model were: 

Averaging time was set to one month to facilitate the calculation of a three month rolling 

average and to use the lead post processor provided by EPA. 

The toxics non default option was chosen to access the total deposition output. 

For source pathway “particulate” was chosen for gas and particle deposition. 

Based on the assumption that only a small fraction (<10%) of the mass is greater than 10 

microns, Method 2 was selected for handling particle deposition by total particulate mass. 

Particle inputs for Method 2 consisted of the fine particle fraction equaling 0.75 and the 

mass mean particle diameter equaling 0.5 microns. 

No volume sources were specified. 

No area sources were specified. 

No open pit sources were specified. 

No circular area sources were specified. 

C-79
No polygon area sources were specified. 

No flare sources were specified. 

No line sources were specified. 

Flat terrain was assumed for the entire modeling domain. 

Results and Discussion: 

Although the historical monitoring data collected in 1980-1997 used a different averaging 

method, the evaluation of that data indicates that the measured values were significantly below 

0.15μg/m3 at the time monitoring was terminated in 1997. The evaluation of the lead results 

from the (2000-2001) West Jefferson County Air Toxics Study also indicates measured values 

significantly below the new standard. These results were compiled using the 3-month rolling 

average that applies to the new standard. 

The modeling results for Mill Creek indicate that the maximum 1-month average was 

0.01914μg/m3. Using the post processor provided by EPA the overall maximum 3-month 

concentration was 0.01μg/m3. This is substantially below the 50% NAAQS threshold of 

0.075μg/m3 and is consistent with the historical measured values indicated in Tables 1 and 2. 

The plots of the high month values for the source as well as the output files for the maximum 3-

month average concentration are attached. 

Conclusion: 

Based on historical monitored data and the modeling results, LMAPCD has demonstrated that a 

source oriented lead monitoring network is not warranted and requests a waiver for monitoring 

at the LG&E Mill Creek facility. Should the waiver be granted, LMAPCD will renew the waiver 

request during each 5 year network assessment required by 40 CFR Part 58.10(d). LMAPCD 

will also review emissions inventory data during its annual network review to determine if 

significant changes in lead emissions occur.

Dear Ms. Keatley, 

Following are comments from the Kentucky Environmental Foundation et al on the 2009 

Air Quality Ambient Air Monitoring Network. Our organizations are concerned with the 

impacts of toxic pollutants in our air and strive to find solutions to improve our air quality 

and protect our health and the environment, and provide this comments to the Department 

of Air Quality with that goal in mind. 

Particulate Matter Monitoring

Given the number of stationary sources of particulate matter (PM) in Kentucky, namely 

coal fired power plants, and the health risks associated with PM2.5 in particular, it seems 

that the number of PM2.5 monitoring stations is inadequate. Particulate matter is linked 

to asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, heart disease and a wide range of 

other serious illnesses.1 Given that, the monitoring network appears to be lacking in 

monitors that could accurately measure emissions from facilities such as the Spurlock 

power plant in Maysville and the Dale plant in Clark County. We request that DAQ 

revisit the emissions deposition around these facilities. DAQ could use CMAQ modeling 

to predict maximum downwind impact from power plants, as a means of determining the 

best placement of PM2.5 monitors. 

In addition, there are proposed coal-fired power plants in Clark and Estill Counties, yet 

the nearest monitoring station in Richmond may not be adequate to establish an accurate

reading of air emissions from those facilities, should they come to be. DAQ should 

consider adding monitoring stations for particulate matter in these areas. 

DAQ should also consider the increase in air pollution from increased residential and 

industrial development. Some regions of Kentucky, including the central Kentucky 

region surrounding Lexington, are fast changing with increasing residential sprawl into 

rural areas, an increase in automobile traffic, construction-related air emissions and 

therefore an increase in the levels of particulate matter from these and other sources. 

DAQ should consult with EPA on urban growth air modeling strategies and the necessity 

of additional monitoring capabilities. 

Mercury Monitoring

Mercury is a high-risk toxicant with myriad human health impacts, most notably linked to 

developmental disorders.2

 Despite the fact that coal fired power plants are a leading 

source of mercury, Kentucky does not appear to be adequately measuring the most toxic 

form of mercury – methylmercury – originating from power plants and other industrial 

facilities. Kentucky’s waterways already carry fish consumption advisories due to high 

levels of toxic mercury. The air monitoring network plan could include fish tissue 

sampling in order to determine the impacts of air releases of mercury on wildlife and 

human health, and back trajectory modeling of contaminated fish could also identify the 

source of the mercury, so that the state can take a more precautionary approach to 

reducing mercury emissions. 

Lead Monitoring

To begin with, DAQ’s monitoring network plan modeling ignored emissions from startup and shut-down of facilities, which can be at emissions rates at 100 – 400 times more 

than routine facility operations. The plan should therefore be modified to include that 

inevitability. 

KY DAQ is requesting a waiver of the source specific monitoring requirement for lead 

for Superior Battery, AEP Big Sandy Plant, Newpage, TVA Shawnee Fossil Plant, North 

American Stainless and LG&E Mill Creek even though these sources have over 1 ton per 

year (TPY) of lead emissions. However, because this request is based on inadequate 

modeling, it is arbitrary. Thus, the waiver cannot be granted and KY DAQ must design

its monitoring plan to include source specific monitoring for lead for Superior Battery, 

AEP Big Sandy Plant, Newpage, TVA Shawnee Fossil Plant, North American Stainless 

and LG&E Mill Creek. 

To begin with, there is no evidence presented that the meteorological data used for the 

modeling that forms the basis of the waiver request is site-specific. See Plan at C-4. For 

Mill Creek, the upper air station data is from Dayton, Ohio, which is over 100 miles away 

from Mill Creek. See Plan at C-18. Modeling that is based on meteorological data from 

an area other than area that was modeled is not valid. 

Furthermore, for Superior Battery, TVA Shawnee and Newpage, the modeling was based 

on upper air station meteorological data for just 26 days rather than 5 years of 

meteorological data. See Plan at C-4. DAQ admits that this data was inadequate. See 

Plan at C-4. There is no rational basis to assume that the 26 days of upper air station 

meteorological data in any way presents a rational approximation of actual ambient lead 

level impacts from these three sources. This is even more so the case in a place like 

Kentucky that experiences significant seasonal variations in weather and the 26 days of 

data was from the winter. 

In addition, DAQ admits that it relied on outdated meteorological data because “The cost 

for more recent data for this particular project would be in excess of $2200. 

Unfortunately, funding for those data is unavailable.” Plan at C-4. Thus, not only is the 

failure to require source specific monitoring for these sources arbitrary because the 

waiver request is based on outdated data, DAQ should not be allowed to implement the 

Clean Air Act with regard to lead at all. 42 U.S.C. 7410(a)(2)(E)(i) requires that State 

Implementation Plans include a demonstration that the state will have adequate funding 

to implement the program. Here, DAQ admits that it does not have adequate funding. It 

cannot come up with a mere $2200. Thus, EPA, rather than DAQ, should implement the 

Clean Air Act with regard to lead in Kentucky. 

Turning back specifically to the lead monitoring waiver request, the modeling that DAQ 

is relying upon is arbitrary because it relies on airport meteorological data which is 

invalid and is contrary to EPA’s modeling guidance. See Plan at C-4, C-18. For air 

dispersion modeling purposes, airport data are among the least desirable. 

Problems with location and the general quality of data are the primary concerns. EPA, in 

their Meteorological Monitoring Guidance for Regulatory Modeling Applications, 

summarizes these concerns about using airport data: 

For practical purposes, because airport data were readily available, most regulatory 

modeling was initially performed using these data; however, one should beware that 

airport data, in general do not meet this guidance.3

 First Airports are comprised of 

concrete runways, parking lots, passenger terminals, and other structures associated with 

air travel activities. These surface and building characteristics in turn affect the boundary

February 2000, p. 1-1.

layer meteorology present at the airport.4

 In addition, landings, takeoffs, and idling of 

airplanes affect the site-specific conditions at the airport such that the meteorological 

conditions are not representative of the area surrounding the 6 facilities requesting 

waivers, several of which are adjacent to a water bodies. Second, another major issue is 

the quality of the meteorological data collected at the Airports. It is important to 

remember that the airport data are not collected with the thought of air dispersion 

modeling in mind. For example, airport conditions are typically reported once per hour, 

based on a single observation (usually) taken in the last ten minutes of each hour. EPA 

recommends that sampling rates of 60 to 360 per hour, at a minimum, be used to 

calculate hourly-averaged meteorological data.5 Air dispersion modeling requires hourlyaveraged data, which represents the entire hour being modeled, not a snapshot taken in 

one moment during the hour. 

In addition, data collected at Airports are not subject to the system accuracies required for 

meteorological data collected for air dispersion modeling. EPA recommends that 

meteorological monitoring for dispersion modeling use equipment that are sensitive 

enough to measure all conditions necessary for verifying compliance with the NAAQS 

and PSD increments. For example, low wind speeds (down to 1.0 meter per second) are 

usually associated with peak air quality impacts - this is because modeled impacts are 

inversely proportional to wind speed. Following EPA guidance, wind speed measuring 

devices (anemometers) should have a starting threshold of 0.5 meter per second or less.6

Furthermore, wind speed measurements should be accurate to within plus or minus 0.2 

meter per second, with a measurement resolution of 0.1 meter per second.7

Airport data, rather than being measured in 0.1 meter per second increments, is usually 

based on wind speed observations that are reported in whole knots. To further exemplify 

the problem of using the airport data, the lowest wind speed included in the airport 

meteorological data files is usually 1.56 meters per second (three knots). 

In addition, all winds lower than three knots are reported as calms, and are thus excluded 

from the modeling analyses. The conditions most crucial for verifying compliance with 

the lead threshold for the waiver are being excluded from the analysis because of the 

choice to use the airport data. Sensitive and accurate measurements of wind speeds are 

necessary for measuring winds down to 0.5 meter per second (about one knot), which can 

then be used as 1.0 meter per second in the air dispersion modeling analyses. There 

would be no need to label such low wind speed hours as calm, which will greatly increase 

the number of hours included in the modeling analyses. Again, it is these low wind speed 

hours which must be included in the modeling data set to verify compliance with the lead 

threshold. Because DAQ failed to do this, a waiver cannot be granted and source specific 

monitoring of these 6 sources must be conducted.

KENTUCKY DIVISION FOR AIR QUALITY 

AMBIENT AIR MONITORING NETWORK 

Comments Received 6/29/2009 

Energy and Environment cabinet 

Department for Environmental Protection 

Division for Air Quality 

(1) A public comment period on the KENTUCKY DIVISION FOR AIR QUALITY AMBIENT 

AIR MONITORING NETWORK 2009 was held from May 29, 2009 through June 28, 

2009. 

(2) The following individuals submitted written comments during the public comment period: 

Name and Title Organization

Ronald R. Van Stockum, Jr., President Shelby County Organized for 

 Preservation and Enhancement, Inc. 

Susan Guess, Chair of Board Paducah Area Chamber of 

 Commerce

Joan Moore, MS, FNP 

Summary of Comments

(1) Subject: Shelby County Air Monitoring 

 

(a) Comment: The Shelby County Organized for Preservation and Enhancement, Inc. 

(SCOPE) commented “SCOPE wishes to preserve and enhance the quality of the air in 

Shelby County. SCOPE believes that air-monitoring stations similar to those found in 

Jefferson, Bullitt and Oldham Counties should be established in Shelby County for that 

purpose.” 

Ronald R. Van Stockum, Jr., Shelby County Organized for Preservation and Enhancement, 

Inc. (SCOPE) 

(b) Response: The division acknowledges this comment and shall take it into consideration 

during the 2010 five-year network assessment. Currently, the division is meeting the 

monitoring requirements for the ambient air monitoring network as required in 40 CFR Part 

58 Appendices A, C, D, E and G. 

D-10
 

 

(2) Subject: Paducah Middle School Monitor Site 21-145-1004 

(a) Comment: The Paducah Area Chamber of Commerce commented “...we are not sure if 

the Division is aware that the Paducah Middle School located at 342 Lone Oak Road in 

Paducah is in the process of deciding on a site for a new school building. Currently, AQS 

Site 21-145-1004 Air Quality Monitor is located on the roof of the Paducah Middle School. 

If the Paducah Middle School decides to move, we feel the viability of an unoccupied 

building as an air monitoring site becomes questionable. Although the move is not 

scheduled to occur prior to 2012, we would suggest that the Division start the process 

to select an alternate site for this monitor. ” 

Susan Guess, Paducah Area Chamber of Commerce 

(b) Response: The division acknowledges this comment. 

(3) Subject: Particulate Matter Monitoring 

(a) Comment: The Kentucky Environmental Foundation et al commented “Given that, the 

monitoring network appears to be lacking in monitors that could accurately measure 

emissions from facilities such as the Spurlock power plant in Maysville and the Dale plant 

in Clark County. We request that DAQ revisit the emissions deposition around these 

facilities. DAQ could use CMAQ modeling to predict maximum downwind impact from 

power plants, as a means of determining the best placement of PM2.5 monitors.” 

Elizabeth Crowe, James Gignac, Robert Ukeiley, John Belanger, and Joan Moore, Kentucky 

Environmental Foundation et al. 

(b) Response: The division acknowledges this comment. The division shall take into 

consideration the areas identified in the above mentioned comment for the 2010 five-year 

network assessment. However, the division is not lacking in monitors but exceeds the 

monitoring requirements for the PM2.5 network as required in 40 CFR Part 58 Appendices 

A, C, D, E and G. 

(c) Comment: The Kentucky Environmental Foundation et al commented “In addition, 

there are proposed coal-fired power plants in Clark and Estill Counties, yet the nearest 

monitoring station in Richmond may not be adequate to establish an accurate reading of air 

emissions from those facilities, should they come to be. DAQ should consider adding 

monitoring stations for particulate matter in these areas.” 

Elizabeth Crowe, James Gignac, Robert Ukeiley, John Belanger, and Joan Moore, Kentucky 

Environmental Foundation et al. 

(d) Response: The division acknowledges this comment. The division shall take into 

consideration the areas identified in the above mentioned comment for the 2010 five-year 

network assessment. 

D-11
 

(e) Comment: The Kentucky Environmental Foundation et al commented “DAQ should 

also consider the increase in air pollution from increased residential and industrial 

development. Some regions of Kentucky, including the central Kentucky region 

surrounding Lexington, are fast changing with increasing residential sprawl into rural areas, 

an increase in automobile traffic, construction-related air emissions and therefore an 

increase in the levels of particulate matter from these and other sources. DAQ should 

consult with EPA on urban growth air modeling strategies and the necessity of additional 

monitoring capabilities.” 

Elizabeth Crowe, James Gignac, Robert Ukeiley, John Belanger, and Joan Moore, Kentucky 

Environmental Foundation et al. 

(f) Response: The division acknowledges this comment. The division shall take into 

consideration the areas identified in the above mentioned comments for the 2010 five-year 

network assessment. However, the division is not lacking in monitors but exceeds the 

monitoring requirements for the PM2.5 network as required in 40 CFR Part 58 Appendices 

A, C, D, E and G. 

(4) Subject: Mercury Monitoring 

(a) Comment: The Kentucky Environmental Foundation et al commented “Despite the 

fact that coal fired power plants are a leading source of mercury, Kentucky does not appear 

to be adequately measuring the most toxic form of mercury – methylmercury – originating 

from power plants and other industrial facilities. Kentucky’s waterways already carry fish 

consumption advisories due to high levels of toxic mercury. The air monitoring network 

plan could include fish tissue sampling in order to determine the impacts of air releases of 

mercury on wildlife and human health, and back trajectory modeling of contaminated fish 

could also identify the source of the mercury, so that the state can take a more precautionary 

approach to reducing mercury emissions.” 

Elizabeth Crowe, James Gignac, Robert Ukeiley, John Belanger, and Joan Moore, Kentucky 

Environmental Foundation et al. 

(b) Response: The division acknowledges this comment. Fish tissue samples are collected 

by the Division of Water for the Department for Environmental Protection. The Division 

for Air Quality is also housed in the Department for Environmental Protection. 

In January of 2007, an Affiliation Agreement was signed between the University of 

Louisville (UofL) and the Cabinet that houses the Department for Environmental Protection. 

The signed agreement allowed a student from the UofL School of Information and Public 

Health to begin the process of linking fish consumption advisories and all environmental 

data relating to mercury. The project cataloged all mercury data collected in Kentucky. The 

signed Affiliation Agreement allows current and future UofL students to continue the fish 

consumption advisory project. 

(5) Subject: Lead Monitoring 

D-12
 

(a) Comment: The Kentucky Environmental Foundation et al commented “...DAQ’s 

monitoring network plan modeling ignored emissions from start-up and shut-down of 

facilities, which can be at emissions rates at 100 – 400 times more than routine facility 

operations. The plan should therefore be modified to include that inevitability. ” 

Elizabeth Crowe, James Gignac, Robert Ukeiley, John Belanger, and Joan Moore, Kentucky 

Environmental Foundation et al. 

(b) Response: The division acknowledges this comment and does not concur that the plan 

should be modified. The division followed 40 CFR Part 51 Appendix W and guidance 

“AERMOD Implementation Guide” revised March 19, 2009, provided by the U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). EPA also provided comments on the proposed 

lead waiver document. The division worked with EPA to provide the best possible modeled 

data available of the lead waiver request. 

(c) Comment: The Kentucky Environmental Foundation et al commented “...because this 

request is based on inadequate modeling, it is arbitrary. Thus, the waiver cannot be granted 

and KY DAQ must design its monitoring plan to include source specific monitoring for lead 

for Superior Battery, AEP Big Sandy Plant, Newpage, TVA Shawnee Fossil Plant, North 

American Stainless and LG&E Mill Creek.” 

Elizabeth Crowe, James Gignac, Robert Ukeiley, John Belanger, and Joan Moore, Kentucky 

Environmental Foundation et al. 

(d) Response: The division does not concur. The division followed 40 CFR Part 51 

Appendix W and guidance “AERMOD Implementation Guide” revised March 19, 2009, 

provided by EPA. EPA also provided comments on the proposed lead waiver document. 

The division worked with EPA to provide the best possible modeled data available of the 

lead waiver request. 

(e) Comment: The Kentucky Environmental Foundation et al commented “... there is no 

evidence presented that the meteorological data used for the modeling that forms the basis 

of the waiver request is site-specific... Modeling that is based on meteorological data from 

an area other than area that was modeled is not valid...Furthermore, for Superior Battery, 

TVA Shawnee and Newpage, the modeling was based on upper air station meteorological 

data for just 26 days rather than 5 years of meteorological data...There is no rational basis 

to assume that the 26 days of upper air station meteorological data in any way presents a 

rational approximation of actual ambient lead level impacts from these three sources...DAQ 

admits that it relied on outdated meteorological data because “The cost for more recent data 

for this particular project would be in excess of $2200. Unfortunately, funding for those 

data is unavailable.”... Thus, not only is the failure to require source specific monitoring for 

these sources arbitrary because the waiver request is based on outdated data, DAQ should 

not be allowed to implement the Clean Air Act with regard to lead at all...the modeling that 

DAQ is relying upon is arbitrary because it relies on airport meteorological data which is 

invalid and is contrary to EPA’s modeling guidance...For air dispersion modeling purposes, 

airport data are among the least desirable.” 

D-13
 

Elizabeth Crowe, James Gignac, Robert Ukeiley, John Belanger, and Joan Moore, Kentucky 

Environmental Foundation et al. 

(f) Response: The division concurs in part. The meteorological data used in the model was 

not current. However, the division has obtained more current meteorological data and has 

re-run the model for the lead sources. The new model demonstrates that all of the previous 

sources, requesting a waiver for lead monitoring, still do not contribute to the lead ambient 

concentrations by more than 1⁄2 the lead NAAQS with the exception of the Superior Battery 

source located in Russell Springs, KY. The division will be locating a monitoring site near 

the Superior Battery source location. 

The division does not concur that “Modeling that is based on meteorological data from an 

area other than area that was modeled is not valid...” or that “the modeling that DAQ is 

relying upon is arbitrary because it relies on airport meteorological data which is invalid and 

is contrary to EPA’s modeling guidance...” The division has followed modeling guidance 

provided by 40 CFR Part 51 Appendix W, “AERMOD Implementation Guide” revised 

March 19, 2009, and through personal correspondence with EPA. The guidance provides for 

meteorological data to be used from multiple sources including airports and not limited to 

site-specific data.

Introduction

The Lake Michigan Air Directors Consortium (LADCO) States are conducting 

photochemical modeling to support the development of State Implementation Plans 

(SIPs) for ozone, PM2.5, and regional haze. A new round of modeling is planned with a 

more recent base year (2005). To support this modeling, an emissions inventory for 2005 

(and relevant future years – 2009 and 2018) is needed on an expeditious schedule. 

To address this need, Alpine Geophysics (Alpine) and MACTEC have teamed together to 

deliver and prepare a number of base and projection year emission files for regional 

planning organizations outside of the Midwest state domain. These RPOs include the 

Mid-Atlantic/Northeast Visibility Union (MANE-VU), Visibility State and Tribal 

Association of the Southeast (VISTAS), Central Regional Air Planning Association 

(CENRAP), and Western Regional Air Partnership (WRAP). Alpine and MACTEC were 

uniquely qualified to provide these files having already prepared or obtained base year 

and emission projections for each of these RPOs under other contracts. 

Through other contracts recently completed or currently in place with the 

Alpine/MACTEC Team, 2002, 2005, 2009, and 2018 emission inventories (in NIF3.0 or 

SMOKE IDA format) were in-house for each of the non-LADCO States and for each of 

the major source sectors (EGU, non-EGU point, stationary area, nonroad MAR, 

NONROAD sources, and onroad activity and input files). These data sets were either 

developed directly by the Study Team (VISTAS and MANE-VU all years, CENRAP 

2009, WRAP 2009) or obtained directly from the RPOs for processing emissions on the 

national 36km domain.

Provision of Unmodified Files 

1.1 EGU, Non-EGU and Stationary Area Sources for MANE-VU and VISTAS 

Several of the required files required no additional work other than to compile the files and make 

them available to LADCO for their use. MACTEC gathered the EGU, non-EGU, and stationary 

area source files for both MANE-VU and VISTAS and placed them on the AirToxics FTP site as 

delivery to LADCO. No modifications of these files were made. Files delivered included EGU, 

non-EGU and stationary area source files for 2002, 2009 and 2018 for VISTAS and MANE-VU. 

Each of these files was in National Inventory Format (NIF) version 3.0. In addition, each of 

these files contained the annual emissions estimates only and did not provide seasonal emission 

estimates. 

Provision of Modified Files 

2.1 Nonroad 

As part of the proposal provided to LADCO by MACTEC and AG, the team had indicated that 

while not prepared in this manner, seasonal and monthly emission estimates for the nonroad 

sector (excluding commercial marine, aircraft and railroads – [MAR]) could be prepared from

the NONROAD05/NMIM model runs used to develop these emissions. In addition the team had 

indicated that 2005 emission estimates at the seasonal/monthly level could also be created from

these runs by interpolation of the 2002 and 2009 files. This section describes the development of 

the nonroad emission files for 2002, 2005, 2009 and 2018 for each RPO. The development of 

the 2002, 2005, 2009 and 2018 MAR component of the inventory at an annual level is described. 

The temporal level developed varied by RPO. 

For VISTAS and the WRAP, the initial and resulting modeling files had been prepared at the 

seasonal level, thus only seasonal estimates were prepared for this work. For MANE-VU, the 

initial annual estimates had been prepared using NMIM which generates estimates at a monthly 

level. Thus MANE-VU estimates were developed at the monthly level. CENRAP emissions 

were available at an annual level and therefore provided as such. The approaches used for each 

RPO are described below. 

2.1.1 Development of MANEVU Monthly Nonroad Estimates 

As indicated above, the original annual NIF files prepared for MANE-VU for NONROAD 

model sources were developed using the NMIM model, with the exception of emissions for 2002 

from Maine and the District of Columbia, which were prepared using the NONROAD model. 

For 2009 and 2018, all NONROAD model sources were estimated using NMIM. MACTEC’s 

2
task was to convert the raw files developed from NMIM into monthly emissions in NIF format 

for 2002, 2009 and 2018. From those files, MACTEC would then use the 2002 and 2009 files to 

provide an interpolation of emissions to obtain an estimate for 2005. 

NMIM output is stored in MySQL database tables. The first step was to obtain the raw output in 

MySQL. Since MACTEC had prepared the 2009 and 2018 files for MANE-VU those tables 

were already in-house. However another contractor prepared the 2002 estimates for MANE-VU. 

MACTEC/AG contacted MANE-VU and obtained the MySQL data tables for the 2002 NMIM 

run for MANE-VU. However, since Maine and the District of Columbia 2002 emissions were 

not developed using NMIM, we also obtained the 2002 annual estimates in NIF format. These 

annual estimates were later converted to monthly estimates. Details on that conversion are 

described later in this section. 

The native output of the NMIM model is to produce monthly emissions. Thus the MySQL tables 

already contained the monthly emission estimates. However the MySQL format is not NIF 3.0. 

To obtain NIF 3.0 format, the reporting tool in NMIM must be used to generate monthly 

emissions. MACTEC used the MySQL tables from the 2002, 2009 and 2018 emission 

projections along with the NMIM reporting tool to format the data into NIF 3.0 format. These 

files are TXT format files that correspond to the CE, EM, EP, PE and TR tables in the NIF 

format. Once the files were output into TXT format, MACTEC used the NIF version 3.0 

Microsoft Access database shell to import the files into Microsoft Access for additional 

manipulation and in order to perform quality assurance checks on the data. Output 

2.1.1.1

2.1.1.2

Conversion of 2002 Annual Emissions for ME and DC to Monthly 

As mentioned above, the 2002 NMIM MySQL tables did not include Maine and the District of 

Columbia since they were estimated using NONROAD05. As a consequence, before a 2005 

estimate could be prepared, the annual ME and DC estimates had to be converted to monthly 

values. In order to do this, MACTEC developed MANE-VU wide monthly fractions from the 

2002 file. These fractions were then applied to the annual values for DC and ME to obtain a 

monthly record from the annual value. Monthly entries for each pollutant for the EM table were 

generated from an average monthly fraction from all other MANE-VU States for 2002. In 

addition, monthly records were added to the PE table. 

Calculation of the 2005 Estimates for MANE-VU 

Once DC and ME monthly emissions had been calculated and added to the monthly emissions 

available for the other MANE-VU States from the NMIM runs, the remaining step was to 

calculate 2005 emissions based on an interpolation of emissions between 2002 and 2009. In 

order to calculate these emissions the State, County, SCC and Pollutant in each EM table was 

3
matched in 2002 and 2009. In doing this, MACTEC identified that there were over 700 records 

in the 2009 file that did not exist in the 2002 file. All of these records were for DC and ME and 

all were for the pollutant NH3. As a consequence, MACTEC decided to add the 2009 records to 

the 2002 file for these missing records with no change in emissions levels. The records are 

marked in the database using one of the BLANK fields in the EM table. Thus they can be easily 

identified. 

Once the records matched between 2002 and 2009 at the State, County, SCC and Pollutant level, 

the interpolated emissions were calculated. The calculation was as follows: 

((2009 – 2002) * (3/7)) + 2002 

Where: 

 2002 = 2002 emissions 

 2009 = 2009 emissions 

3/7 = multiplier to determine 2005 emissions as a linear interpolation between 

2002 and 2009 

Once the 2005 emissions were calculated, appropriate changes were made to the EM, PE and TR 

table to reflect a 2005 emission inventory year. In addition, a similar calculation was applied to 

throughput values in the PE table. 

Finally, when all changes to the Access tables had been made, the NIF tables were exported into 

TXT format, compressed using WinZip and placed on AG’s FTP site for delivery to LADCO. 

2.1.2 Development of VISTAS Seasonal Nonroad Estimates 

VISTAS seasonal estimates were prepared in a similar manner to the MANE-VU monthly 

estimates. In the preparation of the 2002, 2009 and 2018 files for VISTAS, the NONROAD05 

model had been utilized to estimate seasonal emissions. During preparation of the annual NIF 

files the fractions for each season found in the EP table were determined from the seasonal 

emissions calculated by the NONROAD05 runs. Thus the seasonal percentages in the annual 

files in the EP table were not based on defaults but were based on actual calculated seasonal 

emissions. As a consequence, these seasonal percentages were used to calculate seasonal 

emissions for 2002, 2009 and 2018. 

Thus to calculate seasonal emissions, the annual value was multiplied by the seasonal percentage 

to obtain a seasonal value for winter, spring, summer and fall. 

4
However, because the winter season includes December, January and February, two entries for 

the EM and PE tables were prepared for winter estimates, one for December and one for the 

January through February portion. In order to calculate these separate values, the number of 

days of the total season in each of these portions was used to apportion the winter season 

emissions to each entry. For example, the winter season for each year (none of which are leap 

years) contains 90 days total (31 in December, 31 in January and 28 in February). Thus to get 

the December winter value, the annual emission value was multiplied by the winter seasonal 

fraction and by 31/90 (the number of days in December divided by the total number of days in 

the season). Similarly for the Jan/Feb entry the annual value was multiplied by the seasonal 

percentage and by 59/90 (the number of days in Jan/Feb and the total number of days in the 

season). Matching seasonal records for each entry were added to the PE table and seasonal 

throughput values were calculated in a similar manner. 

2.1.3 Development of CENRAP/WRAP Nonroad Estimates 

As part of their responsibilities for other modeling conversion contracts, Alpine staff have 

converted emission inventories and associated emissions modeling files into a variety of formats, 

including NIF 3.0, SMOKE IDA, and RPO Data Exchange Protocol. Our proposed and approved 

method was to use the same procedures and scripts used to convert the emission files from those 

contracts in the conversion to the NIF data format in this study. Emissions as provided on 

temporal scales (annual, seasonal, or daily) were used to populate the NIF emission fields in the 

converted file. 

Nonroad emission files for CENRAP and WRAP were converted and aggregated into a single 

nonroad series of NIF tables for each year of conversion (2002, 2009, and 2018). Within each 

EM table provided per year, annual, seasonal, and daily emission periods exist, based on the 

original obtained modeling file from the individual RPO. 

Our quality assurance in this task was dedicated to the assertion that the reformatting of these 

data did not invalidate the integrity of the original inventories. As such, QA on these files 

included the comparison of reformatted data to the original SMOKE IDA files ensuring that 

specific required fields had been appropriately converted to the field type, length, and unit 

requirements of the NIF structure. 

2.1.3.1 Calculation of the 2005 Estimates for other RPOs 

2005 emission values were calculated for VISTAS, CENRAP, and WRAP using the same

equation as in section 2.1.1.2. Values for 2002 and 2009 were interpolated to obtain a 2005 

value for temporal allocation available for the RPO. 

5
2.2 MAR 

For each of the non-MRPO RPOs, 2002, 2009 and 2018 estimates for MAR sources were 

provided at the annual level. The MAR estimates were provided by extracting all MAR sources 

from the annual nonroad files which contained annual emissions from both MAR and 

NONROAD model sources. Appropriate records from the CE, EM, EP and PE tables were 

extracted and placed into an Access database solely containing MAR emissions. Once the files 

were compiled they were then used to calculate 2005 MAR emissions. 

For CENRAP and WRAP emissions, additional conversions were made to convert SMOKE IDA 

formatted files into the NIF 3.0 structure as noted in the sections above. These emissions for 

MAR sources are included for these two RPOs in the nonroad emission converted files. 

2.2.1 Development of 2005 MAR Emissions 

The 2005 MAR emissions were calculated using the 2002 and 2009 emissions and performing a 

straight line interpolation of emissions using the same equation as provided in section 2.1.1.2. 

This approach was also used on the CE table control efficiencies. While the NONROAD model 

sources did not contain any CE entries (NMIM does not generate any CE table entries), CE 

tables did contain some entries in a few of the RPO reported files. These values were given a 

straight line interpolation using the equation in section 2.1.1.2. 

2.3 EGU Point Source Files 

Electric generating utility (EGU) point source files have been prepared by RPOs using a variety 

of methods. For base year emissions data, CEM emissions and heat input values are used to 

derive inventories and other unit level characteristics for modeling. Recently, ICF’s proprietary 

Integrated Planning Model (IPM) has been utilized by many of the RPOs to derive future year 

emission estimates for this source category. In this project, both types of data were obtained from

the RPOs and converted to the NIF 3.0 format for LADCO’s modeling needs. 

2.3.1 2002, 2009, and 2018 EGU Emissions for CENRAP/WRAP 

EGU point source emissions files for CENRAP and WRAP RPOs were obtained for 2002, 2009 

and 2018 in SMOKE IDA format. Identical to the methods identified above, these files were 

translated to the NIF 3.0 format for this project. For both RPOs and all years, annual emission 

estimates were available in the modeling files and were converted to NIF annual emission 

records. 

Similar to the other SMOKE to NIF file conversions, our quality assurance in this task was 

dedicated to the assertion that the reformatting of these data did not invalidate the integrity of the 

original inventories. As such, QA on these files included the comparison of reformatted data to 

6
the original SMOKE IDA files ensuring that specific required fields had been appropriately 

converted to the field type, length, and unit requirements of the NIF structure. 

2.3.2 2005 EGU Emissions 

EGU point source emissions files for 2005 for all the non-LADCO RPOs were developed under 

separate contract by Alpine using CEM reported emissions, heat input, and control 

characteristics. For the CEM reported pollutants NOx and SO2, emissions were taken directly 

from the reported values when available. For non-CEM pollutants, the CEM reported heat input 

was applied to 2002 calculated emission rates (from the original RPO 2002 base year EGU files) 

to estimate annual emissions from these pollutants. In cases where it was determined that 

incremental controls had been applied between the 2002 and 2005 base year, control efficiencies 

(as noted by EPA documentation) were assigned to the unit and emission reductions were 

calculated accordingly. For units which were new in 2005 (and not found in 2002 or 2009 

emission inventories), methods established by EPA and published on the NEI development 

website were used to prepare emission estimates and other unit level characteristics for these 

sources. In contrast to the 2002 EGU emissions provided by the RPOs and noted in the previous 

section, the EGU file for 2005 contains only emission sources which reported under the CEM 

program and were found in the EPA CEM databases. 

Identical to the conversion methods identified for other source sectors, these files were translated 

to the NIF 3.0 format for this project. For all 2005 EGU emission sources, annual emission 

estimates were available and were converted to NIF annual emission records. 

Similar to the other SMOKE to NIF file conversions, our quality assurance in this task was 

dedicated to the assertion that the reformatting of these data did not invalidate the integrity of the 

original inventories. As such, QA on these files included the comparison of reformatted data to 

the original SMOKE IDA files ensuring that specific required fields had been appropriately 

converted to the field type, length, and unit requirements of the NIF structure. 

2.4 Non-EGU Point and Stationary Area Source Files 

Non-EGU point and stationary area source emissions files for CENRAP and WRAP RPOs were 

obtained for 2002, 2005, 2009 and 2018 in SMOKE IDA format. Using methods already 

established by Alpine for projects of emission conversion for EPA, the RPOs, and other clients, 

these files were translated to the NIF 3.0 format for this project. For both RPOs and all years, 

annual emission estimates were available in the modeling files and were converted to NIF annual 

emission records. The exception to annual emissions reporting was for some fugitive dust related 

categories in CENRAP and WRAP domains (road dust, agricultural dust, etc.) where seasonal 

emission files in IDA format were provided. In these instances, the seasonal temporal variability 

7
was maintained in the conversion and appropriate seasonal emission records were developed for 

the NIF CE tables. 

Non-EGU point source files were prepared by subtracting out the EGU emissions portion as 

estimated and noted in section 2.3 above. For 2002, 2009, and 2018, this was based on EGU files 

provided directly from the RPOs. For 2005, this subtraction was based on Alpine review of 2005 

CEM-reporting emission sources and removal of CEM reporting units from the non-EGU file. 

Similar to the nonroad file conversion, our quality assurance in this task was dedicated to the 

assertion that the reformatting of these data did not invalidate the integrity of the original 

inventories. As such, QA on these files included the comparison of reformatted data to the 

original SMOKE IDA files ensuring that specific required fields had been appropriately 

converted to the field type, length, and unit requirements of the NIF structure. 

2.5 Quality Assurance Steps 

For the emission estimates and data conversions described above, the following quality 

assurance (QA) steps were performed: 

1. Sample calculations were checked by hand including database calculations. Database 

calculations were performed using a SELECT query before performing an UPDATE 

query to change values 

2. Total region-wide seasonal/monthly emission estimates were checked to compare to 

annual region-wide estimates at the pollutant level to ensure that values closely 

matched. 

3. In most cases, the EPA Basic Format and Content Checker tool was used to QA the 

databases developed prior to export of the files to TXT format. In a few cases this 

could not be performed due to the large size of the databases (the VISTAS seasonal 

database contained over 8 million records in the EM table alone). In all cases at least 

one of the databases was checked with the tool, however. 

4. Summaries of emissions at the State/County/SCC/pollutant level were developed to 

compare 2002, 2005 and 2009 values. 

5. Confirmed that the reformatting of these data did not invalidate the integrity of the 

original inventories. 

6. We compared RPO provided emission summaries to the emission summaries 

generated from the reformatted (NIF 3.0) data sets to ensure that all emissions have 

been accounted for in the conversion process.
