1 Session VII: Fugitive Dust Area Sources Paved and Unpaved Roads

2 PAVED ROADS Overview »SCC: »Pollutants –PM 10, PM 2.5 »Activity Data »Emission Factors »State-level Emission Calculations »Emissions Allocation to Counties »Control Factors

3 PAVED ROADS NEI Method  Activity Data [vehicle miles traveled (VMT) on paved roads] »State-Level Activity Data State/road type level VMT from paved roads = Total State/road type-level VMT - State/road type-level unpaved road VMT –Because of differences in methodology between the calculation of total and unpaved VMT, there may be cases where unpaved VMT is higher than total VMT. –In these cases, unpaved VMT is reduced to total VMT, and paved road VMT is assigned a value of zero. »Paved road VMT temporally allocated by month using NAPAP temporal allocation factors for total VMT.

4 PAVED ROADS NEI Method (Cont’d)  Emission Factor »Empirical emission factor equation from AP-42 PAVED = PSDPVD * (PVSILT/2) 0.65 * (WEIGHT/3) 1.5 where:PAVED=paved road dust emission factor for all vehicle classes combined (grams per mile) PSDPVD=constant for particles of less than 10 microns in diameter (7.3 g/mi for PM 10 ) PVSILT=road surface silt loading (g/m 2 ) WEIGHT=average weight of all vehicle types combined (tons)

5 PAVED ROADS NEI Method (Cont’d)  Emission Factor (continued) »Paved road silt loadings assigned to each of the twelve functional roadway classifications –Local functional class roads = 1 g/m 2 –Road types with average daily traffic volume (ADTV) < 5,000 vehicles per day = 0.20 g/m 2 –Road types with ADTV > or = 5,000 vehicles per day = 0.04 g/m 2 »Average vehicle weight assumed to be 6,360 pounds »Fleet average emission factor includes PM from tailpipe exhaust, brake wear, tire wear, and ambient background particulate concentrations.

6 PAVED ROADS NEI Method (Cont’d)  Emission Factor (continued) »Adjustments for precipitation Emission factor multiplied by a rain correction factor, calculated as follows: (365 - p * 12 * 0.5) / 365 where:p = the number of days in a given month with greater than 0.01 inches of precipitation. »Precipitation data used in the paved road emission factor calculations were taken from stations representative of urban areas in each state »Final emission factors developed by month at the State and road type level for the average vehicle fleet

7 PAVED ROADS NEI Method (Cont’d)  Emission Calculation EM s,r,m = VMT s,r,m * EF s,r,m where:EM=PM 10 emissions, tons per month VMT= VMT, miles per month EF=tons per mile M=month S=State R=road type class PM 2.5 = PM 10 emissions x 0.25

8 PAVED ROADS NEI Method (Cont’d)  Allocation of State Emissions to County Level »Paved road emissions are allocated to the county level according to the fraction of total State VMT in each county for the specific road type. PVDEMIS X,Y = PVDEMIS ST,Y * VMT X,Y /VMT ST,Y where:PVDEMIS X,Y =paved road PM emissions (tons) for county x and road type y PVDEMIS ST,Y =paved road PM emissions (tons) for the entire State for road type y VMT X,Y =total VMT (million miles) in county x and road type y VMT ST,Y =total VMT (million miles) in entire State for road type y

9 PAVED ROADS NEI Method (Cont’d)  Controls »Control efficiency of 79 percent applied to: –Urban and rural roads in serious PM NAAs; and –Urban roads in moderate PM NAAs l Corresponds to vacuum sweeping on paved roads twice per month »Rule penetration varies by road type and NAA classification (serious or moderate).

10 PAVED ROADS Revisions to AP-42 Equation  EPA posted revisions to AP-42 Paved Roads Emission Factor Equation in December 2003 »New version of the emission factor equation only estimates PM emissions from resuspended road surface material »PM emissions from vehicle exhaust, brake wear, and tire wear are now estimated separately using EPA’s MOBILE6.2 »Eliminates the possibility of double counting emissions

11 PAVED ROADS Improvements to NEI Method  VMT on paved roads for local area (Source: State Dept. of Transportation, Mobile Source Section of Environmental Dept)  Local registration data representing the average weight of vehicles (since this variable is weighted most heavily) (Source: State Dept. of Motor Vehicles, Mobile Source Section of Environmental Dept)  Perform sampling to refine value used for silt content »Only consider if you can collect enough samples to give a good representation of roads in your area  Obtain and use local precipitation values (Source: National Weather Bureau)

12 UNPAVED ROADS Overview  SCC  PM10-PRI/FIL and PM25-PRI/FIL  No condensible material, so PM-PRI = PM-FIL  NEI Method »Activity (VMT on unpaved roads) »Emission factor (tons per mile)

13 UNPAVED ROADS NEI Method  Activity »State level VMT from U.S. DOT, Federal Highway Administration allocated to counties by population »Activity Data (VMT on unpaved roads) »State-level activity for urban and rural local functional classes

14 UNPAVED ROADS NEI Method (Cont’d) Unpaved VMT Roadtype = Mileage Roadtype * ADTV * DPY Where: Unpaved VMT= road type specific unpaved VMT (miles/year) Mileage= total number of miles of unpaved roads by functional class (miles) ADTV= Average daily traffic volume (vehicle/day) DPY= number of days per year

15 UNPAVED ROADS NEI Method (Cont’d)  Non-local functional classes including: »Rural minor collector, rural major collector, rural minor arterial, rural other principal arterial, urban collector, urban minor arterial, and urban other principal arterial »ADTV not available for non-local roads, estimated from local urban and rural VMT and mileage:

16 UNPAVED ROADS NEI Method (Cont’d) ADTV = VMT/Mileage Where: ADTV=average daily traffic volume for State and federally maintained roadways VMT=urban/rural VMT on county-maintained roadways (miles/year) MILEAGE=urban/rural state-level roadway mileage of county-maintained roadways (miles)

17 UNPAVED ROADS NEI Method (Cont’d)  Add Non-local functional class VMT to local functional class VMT to determine State total unpaved VMT by road type  Unpaved road VMT temporally allocated by month using NAPAP temporal allocation factors for total VMT

18 UNPAVED ROADS NEI Method (Cont’d) where: EF=size specific emission factor (tons per mile) k=empirical constant (2.6 lb/mile for PM10-PRI, 0.38 lb/mile for PM25-PRI) s=surface material silt content (%) W=mean vehicle weight (tons) M dry =surface material moisture content under dry, uncontrolled conditions (%) d=number of days in a particular month p=number of days in month with > 0.01 inches of precipitation EF = (k/2000) * (s/12) 0.8 * (W/3) 0.4 * [(d – p)/d] (M dry /0.2) 0.3  Emission Factor »AP-42 emission factor equation

19 UNPAVED ROADS NEI Method (Cont’d)  NEI Default Emission Factor Input Values »Surface material silt content(s) –Average state-level values developed available at ftp://ftp.epa.gov/EmisInventory/finalnei99ver2/criteria/documentation/xtra_sources/ ftp://ftp.epa.gov/EmisInventory/finalnei99ver2/criteria/documentation/xtra_sources/ »Mean vehicle weight (W) –National average value of 2.2 tons (based on typical vehicle mix) »Surface material moisture content (M dry ) –1 percent »Number of days exceeding 0.01 inches of precipitation (p) –Precipitation data from one meteorological station in state used to represent all rural areas of the state –Local climatological data available from National Climatic Data Center at

20 UNPAVED ROADS Revisions to AP-42 Equation  EPA posted revisions to AP-42 Unpaved Roads Emission Factor Equation in December 2003  New version of the emission factor equation only estimates PM emissions from resuspended road surface material  PM emissions from vehicle exhaust, brake wear, and tire wear are now estimated separately using EPA’s MOBILE6.2  Vehicle exhaust, brake wear, and tire wear component relatively much less for unpaved roads than paved roads

21 UNPAVED ROADS Improvements to NEI  Summary »Review NEI defaults for representativeness »Use local data when possible for activity and emission factor inputs »If resources are limited, focus on collecting data for: –Local precipitation data –Local VMT estimates
