Hi, Erik,

As we discussed yesterday, attached is a corrected version of the Matagorda_DVf_Contribution 

spreadsheet. I've appended "corrected" to the file name to distinguish it from the original.

Here is a summary of the changes in Matagorda contribution to various HGB monitors, as a 

result of corrections:

Matagorda contribution to MACP in 2006 goes from 1.05 to 0.70 ppb (Figure 26)

Matagorda contribution to HNWA in 2006 goes from 1.86 to 1.54 ppb (Figure 30)

Matagorda contribution to TXCT in 2006 goes from 1.63 to 0.55 ppb (Figure 32)

Matagorda contribution to WALV in 2006 remains unchanged at 0.46 ppb.

Let us know if you need anything else.

Thanks!

Zarena

That will work fine. I'll grab them first thing in the morning and let you know that I have them.

Thanks for the quick turnaround.

Hi, Erik, 

 

I've posted a bunch of APCA-related files on our FTP site that will mirror at 2 AM tomorrow 

morning - unless you want them sooner, just let us know pretty quick. 

 

The address will be ftp://amdaftp.tceq.texas.gov/pub/file_transfer/forEPA/ and within that 

directory will be a folder called "TCEQ Ozone TSD". You should be able to log in 

anonymously. I've included the APCA output files for both HGB and DFW; and 4 spreadsheets 

- 2 wavy bacon (one each for HGB and DFW) and 2 DVf contribution (one each for HGB and 

DFW). 

 

Let us know if you have any questions. 

 

Thanks! 

Zarena

Hi Zarena,

I am writing to request the supporting materials for the comments that TCEQ provided for the proposed 

designations area in Houston and Dallas. Could you provide the source original apportionment files from 

the modeling run (I believe they are csv format). Could you also provide the information used for the 

graphics supplied in the letter. When I looked at the time series plots of the source apportionment, it did 

not appear that the actual county was plotted in the graphics in the color pdf version we received. 

Due to our deadlines, we are trying to turn a summary of comments received around quickly and this 

information would help greatly in this process. 

Please call me to discuss or if you have any questions

Thanks,

Erik
