Background Prior to EPA/ORD effort, no temporally spatially resolved inventory prepared for Fairbanks (focus was on CO and spatial resolution not needed/addressed) ORD defined the modeling domain, grid structure and 2007/2008 episodes Assessor database provided GIS information on building size (ft 2 ) FMATS travel model provided GIS information road links Telephone surveys conducted in 2006, 2007, 2010 and 2011 provide perspective on zip code specific residential space heating fuel use shifts over time ORD allowed us to define data gaps and options for collecting information needed to project emissions within defined modeling domain

Data Collection Activities Initial focus on collecting activity data for selected Jan/Feb and Nov 2008 Base Case modeling episodes for each source category Testing programs undertaken to quantify on-road and space heating emission rates Completion of PCA requires development of inventories for each day between 2006 – 2010 with speciation measurements (total of 228 days) Year to year trends become an issue for first time Access to activity data becomes more problematic Forecast to 2014 requires identification of surrogates for both growth and control as well as operating constraints and permit limits

Temporal/Spatial Allocation Issues Numerous SMOKE limitations encountered in processing source specific estimates into gridded temperature dependent emissions – lots of new ground MOVES integration tool not initially available Space heating temporal resolution not accepted for each episode day Airports represented as point sources Data collected at different levels of geographic resolution (e.g., GIS, zip code, county, census tract, etc.), methods developed to integrate disparate data sources Different approaches taken for spatial resolution of emissions for CMAQ versus PCA

Key Issues to be Discussed Inventory development methods/assumptions – CMAQ episodes Inventory development methods/assumptions – PCA calibration Inventory sensitivity testing Inventory forecast assumptions Space heating energy/fuel use
