1. Red Lake Band of Chippewa’s Emissions Inventory Presented by Cody Charwood National Tribal Forum, Spokane, WA 2011 Red Lake Department of Natural Resources

2. Red Lake Band of Chippewa 837,000 acres 2% of Diminished Reservation lands developed 10,000 Band members, 6,500 live on reservation Historically, commercial fishing and logging two biggest industries Red Lake Department of Natural Resources

3. Air Program Development Received GAP funding in late 2007 to begin program, transitioned to CAA 103 funding Began EI in early 2008 for the calendar year 2007 – First step in evaluating Red Lake’s air emissions for future management needs and baseline information – No local monitoring data Red Lake Department of Natural Resources

4. EI Process 1)Training – Also available: ITEP’s online TEISS tutorial http://www4.nau.edu/itep/air/aq_wbteiss.asp 2)Obtain tools – TEISS, GIS 3)Determine objectives 4)Inventory Preparation Plan (IPP) 5)Identify sources 6)Gather and input data into TEISS 7)Peer review 8)Submit to NEI & Report Red Lake Department of Natural Resources

5. Red Lake’s Objectives 1.Evaluate Red Lake’s air emissions by identifying and quantifying air emissions with the Diminished Reservation boundaries 2.Identify point source air emissions within a 50 mile radius of the Diminished Reservation Red Lake Department of Natural Resources

6. Step: Identifying Sources Types of sources to include – point, nonpoint/area, mobile TEISS Calculator List – Look list to get an idea what could be included Phonebook – Local phonebook in digital format or online with search function List from Tribal Secretary’s office of businesses with operating license to do business on Reservation Local Reservation paper – business section Windshield survey with cold Minnesota winter – Easily see exhaust Other DNR staff Other Reservation’s EIs for ideas Red Lake Department of Natural Resources

7. Red Lake’s Sources Small Stationary/Area Sources – Municipal waste combustion – Structural fires – Municipal wastewater treatment – Fugitive dust sources: paved and unpaved roads – Heating: schools/institutions and residential – Gasoline service stations – Prescribed burns and wildfires Red Lake Department of Natural Resources

8. Area Sources Not Included Mobile sources (vehicle emissions) Agricultural activities Road construction General construction Consumer products use Food preparation Open burning – yard waste – leaf and brush species Lamp breakage Red Lake Department of Natural Resources

12. Gathering Data Municipal waste combustion – Transfer Station Structural fires – Fire Department Municipal wastewater treatment – Municipal Sanitation Fugitive dust sources; paved and unpaved roads – Engineering Department and MNDOT Red Lake Department of Natural Resources

13. Gathering Data continued… Commercial and Institutional Fuel Combustion – Fuel supplier and accounting office Residential Fuel Combustion – Energy Assistance Program, US Census Data, Engineering Gasoline service stations – Fuel Supplier, state tax revenue Prescribed burns and wildfires – Wildland Fire Management Information System - DOI Red Lake Department of Natural Resources

14. Enter Data / Calculating Emissions TEISS Sources not having a calculator in TEISS, look to Clearinghouse for Inventories & Emissions Factors (CHEIF) http://www.epa.gov/ttn/chief/index.html http://www.epa.gov/ttn/chief/index.html – AP-42 Calculators http://www.epa.gov/ttn/chief/ap42/index.html – 2002 Nonpoint Emissions Inventory Documentation Documentation For The Final 2002 Nonpoint Sector (Feb 06 Version) National Emission Inventory For Criteria And Hazardous Air Pollutants, including Appendix A: Criteria and HAP Emissions Estimation Methodology Documentation For The Final 2002 Nonpoint Sector (Feb 06 Version) National Emission Inventory For Criteria And Hazardous Air Pollutants, including Appendix A: Criteria and HAP Emissions Estimation Methodology – Emission Inventory Improvement Program http://www.epa.gov/ttn/chief/eiip/techreport/ Always check units! Keep records for review process Red Lake Department of Natural Resources

15. Finishing Steps Peer Review by Angelique Luedeker, ITEP – Emailed: Compressed TEISS file Excel spreadsheets used for emissions not calculated in TEISS and other estimations Narrative explanation of data sources and calculation methods Submit to NEI – Obtain login to review data in database Presenting Results – Narrative Report – Display results via maps, charts, tables and graphs – Keep it simple and know your audience Red Lake Department of Natural Resources
