ABSTRACT
Ambient ozone concentrations in the New York Metropolitan area,
encompassing portions or the States of New Jersey. Nev. York and Connecticut.
often exceeded the ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) of 0.12
DDtp during the 198C ozone season. To address this orob'em. a study entitled
"Gx'aant Modeling ~or tne i\iew ', or\ ,vietrcDo" ~ tan nrea Project , GMNYMA?> nas Deer
unaertaken. The goals of this modeling study are to orovide information on (a)
tne extent and magnitude o^ tne ozone pros!err ir tne New Yon Metrooolitan area
during the 1988 ozone season; (b) the impact/benefit achieved with imposition of
soecific control strategies to which the three states committed themselves ir,
tneir State Implementation Plans (SIPs); (c) the role of pollutant transport
~rom the upwind regions into the modeling domain; and (d; meaningful and
effective control strategies to meet and maintain ozone NAAQS in the New York
Metropolitan area.
In this study, the urban AIRSHED model (DAM) has been used to simulate five
high ozone days in the 1980 oxidant season. Typical characteristics of the five
high ozone days were as follows: wind flow generally from the south to
southwest at about 4 to 5 m/s, daily maximum surface temperature in the range of
30 to 35°C (86 to 95°F) and measured ozone concentrations exceeding 200 ppb
within Connecticut. The emissions input data base consisted of major and minor
point sources, area sources, and mobile sources. The inventory was compiled for
the region on an nourly oasis for I\IO(/, CO. and VOC emissions in terms of
A
speciatea components characterized by the Carbon Bond II (CBII) chemical
mechani sm.
The model results have been analyzed to assess the performance of the model
in simulating the observed ozone concentrations. Various statistical measures
wei"e aoolied to the data for each of the five simulated days as well as for the
enserriL
-------
categories. However, the model has a tendency to underpredict the peak or the
maximum concentrations over the modeling domain. These results are consistent
with evaluations of the DAM performance at other urban areas by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency.
The UAI^ was then apsliec tc assess tne Tmoact of emissions cor-'-c's
implemented unaer me State Implementation ?"ans (SIPs] of trie tnree states ~or
1988 together with appropriate reductions in the pollutant concentrations at the
upwind boundary fo~ two of the ^ive days during wnich UAf oerformed the best.
The modeling results indicate that although there is a decrease in the 1988 peak
ozone levels, the predicted maximum concentrations are well above the NAAQS for
ozone. Even with the imposition of all the extraordinary emissions control
measures committed to under tne SIPs, the results of a one day simulation reveal
that the peak ozone level continues to be well above the NAAQS.
Analysis of the sensitivity of the model output to specific model input
conditions discloses that pollutant transport into the modeling region is
extremely important. Hence, serious consideration should be given to this
feature in addition to other emissions reduction plans for developing meaningful
and effective strategies to meet and maintain the ozone NAAQS in the New York
Metropolitan area. Additional modeling analyses are necessary to quantify the
level cf reduction in the precursor emissions required to meet the ozone NAAQS
in this area.

INTRODUCTION
Pursuant to the 1970 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAA), the U.S. Environmental
Di"ctectior Agency (USEPA) has promulgated the primary and secondary Nationa"
Ambient Air Quality Standard ^ NAAQS) for ozone. As stated in the 36 -edera1
Reg-ste^ 8186 (Ao^1 1971;. this standard was "0.08 DDIT maximurr one-nou-

information on the health effects of ozone in the atmosphere, the USEPA revised
the NAAQS to 0.12 pom in 1979 with the standard being attained wher "tne
expected number of days per calendar year with maximum hourly average
concentration above 0.12 parts ne^ million is equal to or less than 1" (-10 CFR
50.9). Under Section 110 of CAA, state and local air pollution control agencies
are required to specify tne metnoas that are to be imolemented to reduce
precursor emissions in urban areas to the extent necessary to comply with the
NAAQS. These measures are to be identified in their State Implementation Plans
(SIPs). To accomplish this in an equitable manner, the regulatory agencies must
be able to relate the existing emission patterns from specific urban source
areas to air quality at downwind receptor locations, expressed in terms of
ground-level ozone concentrations.
Ozone is not usually emitted directly into the atmosphere, but is insteaa a
secondary pollutant that is formed over a period of time "ronri a var'ieti of
atmospheric reactants. The USEPA nas specified a numoer of modeling tecnmques
for estimating the required percentage reduction of precursor (hydrocarbon and
oxides of nitrogen) emissions from an urban source area necessary tc meet the
air quality standards. Since implementation of an emission control strategy may
require tremendous economic commitments and may cause severe social dislocation.
reliable estimates of ozone concentrations due to tne imoact of precursor
making a decision to adopt a particular control strategy for the area.
Downwind ozone levels are related to a specific area's precursor emissions,
and transported ozone and precursor concentrations, by the mathematical models
which predict these relationships in such a manner that various control
-------
strategies can be evaluated. Confidence can be placed in the impact evaluation
process only if reliable ozone prediction relationships are employed.
Approaches for determining the level of emission reductions necessary to attain
the NAAOS include, in the orde1" of increasing cornel exity. Tinea1" ro^back. the
"Appendix J" method, empirical kinetics moae1 , and numerical models for
ohotochemi ca1 oxidants. The cno^ce c~ aoD^oacr net only a*"ects tne sc^erv~"c

"imited or none of the required input data, and/or the expertise ^ecui^ed to
ut~1~ze the approach .
Rollback models, wr.icn are now unacceptable, assume $ c^ect
proportionality between air quality and emissions. Thus, a reduction cf a
secondary pollutant concentration such as ozone, is assumed to be directly
proportional to a reduction in source emissions for an entire region. This
method may be used for regions only wnere very little detailed aata are
available, and then, too, only for screening purposes. Hence, this highly
simplified approach to ozone modeling is largely outmoded.
The "Appendix J," or upper limit oxidant - hydrocarbon concentration
approach, is a technique developed in the early 1970' s which attempted to
develop a simple relationship between afternoon oxidant levels and morning
hydrocarbon concentrations. Since the model complete"1 y disregards the
site-specific or local effects of nitrogen oxides, meteorology, and ozone
transport, tnis aoproacn also is no longer considered valia D> L'3EP^.
Empirical kinetics models represent an attempt to develop the relationships
between ambient ozone concentrations and precursor emissions, based on smog
chamber simulations. Initial concentrations of various precursor mixtures are
Introduced into the smog cnamoer and are subjected to sunlight tc induce
photocnemi cal activity. Resulting ozone concentrations are observed as a
in an isopleth form as functions of initial concentrations of non-methane
hydrocarbons (NMHC) and oxides of nitrogen (NO ). This information was utilized
X
to develop the USEPA Model, Empirical Kinetics Modeling Approach known as EKMA.
The EKMA model is probably the most reasonable model currently available for
-------
relatively widespread use. There are, however, some limitations to the model.
For example, ambient precursor concentrations within the urban area are assumed
to be directly proportional to emissions. Differences may exist between
NMKC/NC "atios fy>oir measurec concentrations and those deduced from emissions
x
inventory data. Another proolem is related to the treatment of background
concentrations. Because of ve^y raoid reactions Detweer NC and C7. the

instantaneous complete mixing in the vertical direction as the height of the a-:"
column (mixing height) increases. Furtnermore, EKMA is unable to predict ozone
concentrations at locations not represented by physical monitors. Mnally, fo»-
a large urban area such as New York the trajectory approacn is inadequate to
describe the physical mechanisms of the large plume and the effects of a variety
of meteorological conditions.
Numerical photochemical transport and dispersion models such as the Urban
Airshed Model, (JAM (Reynolds, 1979), and Livermore Regional Air Quality Model,
LIRAQ (McCraken, et al., 1975) and the Cal Tech photochmeical grid model (McRae,
et al., 1982) are among the most sophisticated of the approaches, and are
well-suited for predicting tne spatial and temporal distributions of ozone
concentrations downwind of urban areas. In theory, numerical modeling approach
is the best choice. However, in practice, numerous proolems arise. Tnese
include the following: the difficulty of numerically solving tne complex
conservation of mass equations accurately; the high computational costs and
expertise required for model implementation and interpretation; the unknown
effects of treatments of the transoort. diffusion, and reaction orocesses in the
model due to limitations of available data and knowledge: the Targe data
^eauirements for testing critica1 features of the model and its validation: and

emissions inventory.
Thus, it is evident from the above discussion that advanced models are
required to properly identify the relationship between emissions and ozone
concentrations. Equitable and effective control strategies can only be
developed based on the numerical models since the photochemistry, transoort, and
-------
-a-
diffusion of ozone are treated In detail by these state-of-the-science models.
However, it is imperative that the emissions data base as well as the aerometric
data used in the model are accurate to ensure that the modeling results are
usefu"1 anc credible. ^irthe". the uncertainties associated with the mode"
results must also be taken into account in the development of meaningful contrc'
st^atscr as *o" ozone.
The goals of this project are to assess and quantify the ozone problem in
the New York Metropolitan area, to evaluate the available control options and
to develoo effective and equitable strategies for reducing the ozone levels in
the region through the application of the (JAM photochemical oxidant model. The
New York Metropolitan area includes portions of the states of New Jersey,
New York, and Connecticut. As a part of tnis study, meteorological and amoient
air quality data were analyzed to characterize those conditions that are
conducive to the formation and production of peak ozone levels in the region.
Based on this analysis, five typical high ozone days in the 1980 oxidant season
were selected for detailed modeling analysis. The pertinent emissions and
meteorological data were assembled to execute -the UAM for these selected days
for the base year, 1980. The model predictions were compared with the
measurements to assess the model performance. These results indicate that the
UAM performance in this study is similar to its performance in other urban areas
such as Tulsa, St. Louis and Philadelphia.
Evaluation of tne control options inciuaea emissions projections of ~ne
1980 baseline to future scenarios (such as tne 1982 SIP for 1988 j in order to
determine whether these measures will reduce the ozone concentrations to the
level of the NAAQS in the region. These projections included changes in
emissions arising from changes in population and activity levels, as well as
specific changes in emissions associated with regulatory actions that are
already mandated under the current laws and regulations and projected oollution

meteorological features observed in 1980, model simulations were performed to
assess the impact of selected emissions reduction scenarios for two of the five
days. Although the predicted peak concentrations in 1988 in the New York
Metropolitan area are reduced from the base year levels, the predicted peaks are
still well above the ozone NAAQS. Simulation of the UAM for one day with the

Finally, the sensitivity of the model to various input parameters was evaluated
and the results suggest that transport of ozone and its precursors into the
mooeling domain significantly affects tne ozone concentration field over me
tri-state region. Additional modeling analyses are necessary to document

These exceedances are found region-wide, indicating that ozone is a pervasive

August, tne so called "ozone season". In oraer to understand prevailing
meteorological characteristics during the days of nigh ozone concentration.
ambient air quality measurements ••'rom the states of New Jersey, New York, and
Connecticut were examined for a six year period frorr> 1978 to 1983. The
criterion adopted to select a day as a high ozone day was that the maximum
hourly concentration at a monitoring station be equal to or greater than 200
ppb. The days thus selected are listed in Table 2.1. The number of days range
from a minimum of 5 days in 1982 to a maximum of 16 days in 1983 with a majority
of them occurring over Connecticut. It should be noted that the number of
monitoring stations and their locations often varied from year to year, and
therefore a subset of high ozone days from Table 2.1 was selected such that
there be at least two stations in Connecticut and at least one station in the
New York-New Jersey area exceeding the 200 ppb concentration value. A general
description of tne meteorological features that are representative of tnis class

2.3 Selection of Modeling Days
By virtue of its design, the UAM requires the detailed input of various
aerometric data sets for simulating the concentration field (Ames, et a"!..
1985a, 1985b). In a majority of the applications, the required input data are
not available f^om ^outine measurements and nave to be aeve"ooec ^"om soeci a'
mon'i-crinc networks. One sucr netwo^K ^s tne 193C Nortneast Cor"~->ao" Reg: one.
Modeling Project (NECRMP, 1982a) conducted by USEPA, which provided a detailed
and extensive aerometric data base for this region. An examination of the
NECRMP data base for aircraft measurements (NECRMP, 1982b) and Table 2.1 reveals
that of the 12 days only 5 days could be considered for the application of the
UAM. The five days are 0080198(071680), 0080203(072180), JD80204(072280),
0080219(080680). and JD8022K080880).
A brief description of the synoptic weather oattern for tnese five Gays is
given in Table 2.3. These days appear to fit the characteristic pattern
discussed earlier for the high ozone day with a frontal array across the
northeastern U.S. border, slightly disturbed west-southwesterly to
west-northwesterly flow aloft, a weak surface trough east of the Appalachians,
and a surface high pressure ridged from the Atlantic Ocean westward across the
southern U.S. In Table 2.4 are listed the local cl imatological data for the
•five days. Most stations exhibit the typical conditions, namely, temperature
maxima in tne upper 80's and 90's °F, minima in the upper 60's and 70's °F, a
p- =v£."ier;ce cf smoke, naze, some ~og anc occasional occurrer.ee cf thunderstorms.
Average SKV cover (sunrise to sunset) is generally five tenths or greater, anc
surface winds are generally south to southwesterly with wind speeds in the range
2-7 m/s.

C.I Grid Cal1 Size
The UAM program utilizes the modeling region as a volume subdivided into an
array of three-dimensional grid cells. The horizontal, i.e., the east-west,
north-south plane is divided into cells of equal size. The vertical cell size
is dependent upon the fixed number of layers into which the layer between the
ground and the top of the simulation region is subdivided. In this study, an
8 km cell equal in east-west and north-south directions, was selected. This
yielded 31 cells in the east-west direction and 25 cells in the no^th-south
direction. The 8

The geographic distribution of the ozone monitoring stations is snown in
Figure 3.2. In general, monitoring data over the northwest quadrant are sparse,
with the majority of the stations oriented along a southwest-northeast line. In
addition to the routine monitoring stations, data are available at four other
sites from NECRMP. These locations are also shown in Figure 3.2. On a state-
by-state basis, the number of stations in Connecticut, New York and New Jersey
were 10, 13 and 10, respectively with the majority of the New York and
New Jersey stations located in the southwest quadrant of the model domain.

in Figure 3.3. It should be noted that no routine monitoring was performed for
these pollutants and that the sites shown in Figure 3.3 represent the special

The monitoring stations reporting nitrogen oxides, shown in Figure 3.4,
were a1! located in the soutnwestern portion of the modeling domain. In addi-
tion ro tne data from 15 to 20 routine monitoring stations, data from tnree

2.2.2 Ca^bor Monoxide ''CO'
The majority of the CO monitoring stations, shown in Figure 3.5, were
located in the urban areas. The data from these stations were used to provide
estimates cf the distribution of the pollutant concentrations in the moae'ing
domain.
3.2.5 Ancillary Ambient Air Quality Data
Ambient air quality data from stations located outside the domain, listed
in Table 3.1, were assembled to provide the required input data at the
boundaries of the modeling domain. Also, aircraft data collected under the
NECRMP study were utilized to provide information on the pollutant distribution
in the vertical plane. The flight paths over the domain consisted of horizontal
traverses witn spirals at the fixed locations shown in Figure 3.6.
5.2.6 Surface anG upper Air Kieteorologi ca'i Data
The routine NWS station network in the domain, shown in Figure 3.7, provided
the surface wind speed and direction, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure and
temperature measurements. The upper air data were obtained from the NWS station
at JFK Airport, New York City and NECRMP stations shown in Figure 3.7, and the

The available data for the determination of the hourly mixing heights

and pollutant concentration measured by aircraft obtained at the locations shown
in r:igures 3.6 and 3.7. The methods by which the hourly, mixing neignts were

Garrett (1981). Also, the information on the vertical gradients in the ozone
concentration and the extent or" ozone scavenging were utilized in estimating the
spatially invariant hourly mixing heights for each of the selected days.
3.2.2 Top of the Modeling Region
An nourly variable neignt for the region top was selectaa for this stucy.
Tne region too was assumed to rise at a rate slower tnan that of the mixing
height in the morning hours, and by midday both of them became equal. The
region top was assumed to remain constant at that height, while the mixing
height decreased in the late afternoon hours. The top of the modeling region
was set at a minimum height of 1000 m with a minimum depth of 500 m for the
layers between the top of the modeling region and the level below. Figure 3.8
shows schematically the diurnal profile of the top of the modeling region along
with mixing heights ^or the modeling domain.
0.3.3 Surface Temperature
The distribution of the surface temperature within the domain was derived
through an inverse-distance-squared weighting interpolation scheme utilizing the
measurements available at the NWS stations shown in Figure 3.7 for each hour of
the model simulation.
Sea-level atmospheric pressure values, obtained from the NWS stations shown
in Figure 3.7, for each hour are averaged to yield a value over the domain for
that hour.

3.3.5 Concentration of Water Vapor
Following Byers (1971) and Hull (1974) the specific humidity of saturation,
q_. was obtained as follows:

E,. = 6.107S
P = atmospheric pressure (mb)
T = dew point temperature (°C)
In this study, the specific humidity of saturation for each hour was
calculated from the data collected at the NWS station located at JFK airport in
New York City, which was then multiplied by 10 to yield the water vapor
concentration in ppm as a representative value for the domain.
3.3.6 Exposure Index
This parameter is a measure of near ground level stability due to surface
neating or cooling and is estima.teo frorri insolation as snown in Table 3.3. In
tris stud;-, the date jt'"1 ized to estimate the exposure inder included the sc^a"
•~ac~ s.tior. aata f^orr the -Ismingtcr and i'ar'bc-c sites i ~ the southwestern part
of New Jersey and the hourly sky cover conditions reported from the NWS stations
shown in Figure 3.7. An estimate of the exposure index for each hour was made
using these data as well as synoptic weather information.
3.S.7 Oiurna1 Photolysis Rate Constant
A computer program that incorporates the data of Demerjian, et. al., (1980)
was used to calculate layer-averaged N02 photolysis rate constants based upon
the latitude, longitude, month, day and time of day, mixing height, and solar
radiation data. Assuming clear sky conditions and using the mixing height
information, the layer-averaged N02 photolysis rate constants were obtained for
the modeling domain.

UAM reauires the soecification of a gridded three-dimensional flow field.
Attempts were made to generate a gridded wind field based uoon the available
surface and 'jpper air data from the stations shown in "igure 3.7, using the
Cla*"k and Eskridge (1977) non-divergent algorithm. However, the spatial
representativeness of the available upper air observations for the entire
modeling domain was found to be questionable because of the influence of
land-sea breeze circulations. Application of a bi-cubic splines interpolation
technique to the surface level winds produced too much smoothing in the derived
wind field. Thus, it was decided to use only the surface based observations and
generate the three-dimensional non-divergent gridded wind field, assumed
invariant in the vertical direction. However, examination of such a wind field
and trajectory patr.s revealed an undue influence from the coastal NWS stations

compromise for capturing the transport characteristics prevailing in the
modeling domain.
3.3.10 Initial Ai^ Quality and Region Top Concentrations
The following procedures were adopted to obtain the gridded pollutant
distribution at the surface and in the vertical. For each of the pollutants the
concentrations measured at the ambient air quality monitoring stations shown in
Figures 3.2 to 3.5 for the period 0300 and 0400 Hrs were averaged and formed the

basis for generating gridded surface concentrations. The methods consisted of
an inverse-distance-squared weighting scheme or the population distribution as a
surrogate parameter, particularly when there were very few or a limited number
of surface stations ^rom wnich date, were available tc make a meaningful ir.te1"-
polatior over the modeling domain. cor the grids over the Atlantic Ocean, the
"cT'iitant concentrations we1"5 assumed tc be tne same as those ;i 1av9v" - arc!
assumec to oe umformlv distributee in tne vertical.
The pollutant measurements made with tne aircraft over the domain were used
to provide the concentration estimates at the top of the modeling domain for
each of the collutants as we"1! as for the layer 4. For the intermediate "levels
between the surface and the base of the layer 4, the concentrations were deter-
mined as follows. If the grid cell was classified as urban, the concentrations
were assumed to be uniform from the surface up to the base of layer 4; and if it
was rural, tne concentrations were obtained using the gradient determined from
the aircraft spiral data. This is shown schematically in Figure 3.9.
Listed in Table 3.4 are the CBII chemical speciation factors which were
developed from the ambient NECRMP data base and applied to the NMHC concentra-
tions in this study. The NO^-NO ambient concentrations were assumed to be in
the ratio of 2 to 1.
3.3.11 Boundary Concentrations
Tne surface concentrations along tne boundaries for eacn nour were
estimated based upon measurements from the monitoring stations listed in Table
3.1. Attempts were made to take into account the wind direction for each hour
in arriving at the surface boundary concentrations considering the "iocation of
the monitoring station and availability of data. The vertical gradients of the
pollutants determined from the aircraft measurements were applied to all four
layer. In those cases where the ozone concentrations in any one of the surface
boundary grids was determined to exceed that of the region top value before the
mixing height entrenches into the layer 4, such grids were assumed to be
uniformly mixed up to the layer 3. In the case of the 4th layer, it was assumed

soeciated into the hydrocarbon classes used in the Carbon Bond II Chemica1
mecnanism. Since each state covered by the modeling domain has a di^fe^er.t
emissions inventory system, a new emissions data management system was required
to me^ge these data into a form compatible with UAM. To assist in this task,
NYSDEC contracted with Engineering Science (ES), Fairfax, VA for the installa-
tion of computer coaes required for this purpose. ES had ceveloped simi'ar
codes for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for the Philadelphia
metropolitan area study (USEPA, 1982).
The system of programs accepts emissions data in the format used by the
National Emission Data System (NEDS). It also makes use of modules from the
Emissions Inventory System (EIS), which provides emissions calculation
procedures. These procedures allow a user to estimate emissions using process
rates or activity levels and emission factors. The emission factors are stored
in a user-maintained table which is arranged by Source Classification Code (SCC)
and pollutant identification number.
The installed system provides tne means 1:0 cisaggregate annual emission
estimates to an hourly basis using specific or typical operating schedules, and
to speciate total hydrocarbons into several classes depending on the composition
of emissions from the source category (see Appendix A). After performing these
calculations, the system formats the data to the specifications of UAM.
sources: major and minor point sources, area sources, and mobile sources.
Major and minor point sources are those sources which emit significant amounts
from smokestacks or other readily identifiable emission points and for wnich
detailed operating data are available. Area sources include residential
emissions and others which are too small and too numerous to handle
individually. Mobile sources are generally considered to be motor vehicles on
established roadways.
-------
-38-
In this study, major point sources were defined as those with annual
emissions greater than 100 tons and a stack height greater than 65 meters and
the remaining were classified as minor point sources and are individually
formatted by the system. However, minor point sources falling within a gr:>d
were comoined aue to the computational limitations imposed by DAM moael . Area
source emissions we-^e calculated and maintained seoa^ately for UD re 5^ source

generally tabulated by grid cell. The installed system handles all four source
categories and oe^forms the necessary combinations. In addition, other modules
have been provided for the conversion of data from NEDS to EIS format,
allocation of county-level area source data to the grid cell level and for
calculation of area source emissions. Figure 4.1 illustrates schematically the
flow of aata through the system. Once the data are in the EIS ^ormat. taoles
are developed consisting of factors organized by SCC that indicate the seasonal,
aaily, and hourly variations in emission rates and proportion of the tota1
hydrocarbons into the corresponding hydrocarbon category. The program performs
a simple multiplication of the annual estimate of each pollutant and the
appropriate factors to yield 24 hourly emission rates per source. A
post-processing program takes the factored data and formats it to the
specifications of UAM. Emissions from mobile sources, which are not stored in
EIS format and which have been prepared on an hourly basis, require a separate
factoring and formatting program.

required as input to the processing programs. For example, point source aata
may be obtained more readily in the NEDS format, while the area source
activities are tabulated at the county level instead of at the grid-cell level.
For this reason, some additional computer codes were used to distribute
county-level activities to the grid cells, to calculate emission estimates based
on activity levels and emission factors, and to re-arrange the data into EIS
Thus, the EIS programs convert point and area source data in NEDS format to
EIS transactions, sort the transactions, insert emission factors into the
transactions, calculate emission estimates if requested and create or modify an
EIS master file, and create an emission factor table based on SCC.

Each State was responsible for collecting and preparing the necessary data
for processing by the ES programs. A description of the procedures used for
each generating State's inventory is provided below.
4.2 Connecticut 1980 Emissions Inventory
Connecticut's available emission inventory was in NEDS format on a
state-Gesignea grid system. NEDS activity levels were summed into tne grids Dy
Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection (CTDEP) and orovidea to New
York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC). Also provided
were the aoprcpriate emission factors based on AP-&2 (USEDA, 1984) T"or eacn
source category. ES programs are then used to process the data into DAM format,
ana in Tao'ie 4.1 emissions are listed'by 3CC category for 1980.
4.2.2 Point Sources
CTDEP provided their point source emission inventory in NEDS format. ES
programs are applied to separate major and minor sources and process the data
into proper format for DAM.
4.2.3 Mobile Sources
Connecticut mooile source emissions of VCC, CO, NC (K.g/aay> were

modeling domain. Appropriate emission factors were also provided. Since most
area source emissions are based on population, the same basis wa**s used for
dividing these emissions into the modeling grid. NJDEP supplied 1980 U.S.
Census population data for each murncioality and the oercentage of the
municipality located in each grid. Factors were tnen developed to apportion
tcta" county emissions into eacr gric. lf a grid contained emissions ^rom one
or more counties anchor states, tne emissions were comoinec aur'ing a ",ate^
processing operation. The ES programs were applied and in Table 4.2 are
summarized the area source emissions for 1980 by SCC category.
4.3.2 Point Sources
New Jersey's point source data were in a format that could not ^eadily be
converted to the EIS format. Therefore, it was determined that an emission
inventory prepared for tne NECRMP was compatiole with tne ES programs, using
this NECRMP inventory, the ES programs were applied to separate major and minor
sources and the data was processed into proper UAM format.
4.3.3 Mobile Sources
NJDEP provided mobile source VOC emissions (kg/day) using MOBILES, for each
county ir the modeling region. Utilizing the population distribution, these
county-wide emissions were allocated to the corresponding grids using the ES
prog-ami. Emissions of NC ana CC were then octainee b\, scaling tnese VCC aata
using composite emission factors (g/mile) for each of these pollutants. NVSDEC
developed factors which were applied to daily values to create hourly emission
levels. Once on a gridded basis, ES programs processed the mobile emissions
into the UAM format.

As with the New Jersey data, population was used as the basis to distribute
most county level emissions to the modeling grids. Two source categories were
deemed to have more appropriate methods of disaggregation - Vessels and Aircraft
emissions. Vessel emissions are v>estricted to waterways in each county and
aircraft emissions a^e limited to tnose grids which contained airports.

'-ansDortatior, Counc' '. ' NYMTC ; are usec oC prooortion tne counc;> errrssior -eta's
into the approoriate grids. Population for each grid was calculated from 1980
US Census data. NYMTC orovided this data at 1 km grids for most New Yort:
counties which are then summed into the appropriate UAM grids. NYMTC had no
data for Sullivan and Ulster counties so the procedure which New Jersey followed
was used to apportion those counties' emissions to the modeling grids. The ES
orograms were applied and the 1980 area source emissions from New York are
listed in Table 4.3 by SCC category.
4.4.2 Point Sources
New York's point source data were also in a format that could not be
converted to the EIS format. Therefore, NY data had to be processed
independently and subsequently combined with that from the other states. A
search of the NYSDEC Source Management System (SMS) identified those sources
meeting the major point source criteria. Only utility boilers and one
correctional facility Doiler were classified as major point sources. All others

A survey was sent to each utility requesting actual hourly electricity
generation values for the five modeling days. The five hourly values were
averaged and emissions calculated using the average 1980 heat rate (Btu/kwhr)
and aporooriate emission factors based on AP-42, unless unit specific factors
were available. Hourly emissions from the correctional facility's boiler are
Operate permit. Those hourly emissions from the major point sources were then
divided into the 'JAM species and processed into the correct format. Only NO
A
emissions are used for this exercise. VOC emissions from these boilers were
deemed negligible and not included in the model.

The minor point source data required additional evaluation. Since the data
could not be processed (divided into model species by hour) by the ES programs,
NYSDEC undertook the task. The SMS tracks pollutant emissions on a chemical
basis, referenced to the Chemical Abstract Series (CAS1) identification number.
The 1980 emissions data were examined and it was determined that over 98% of the
VOC emissions in tne area were classified as one of 35 distinct ool H'tants.
-actors were aeve'iooec using tne CBII cnermca" ssec'ation for eacr, of tnese 55
pollutants. The remaining 2% of VOC emissions were assigned a default
soeciatior arrangement corresponding to that for the category Miscellaneous
Organics (CAS No. NY990-00-0). The speciation breakdown for these 35 pollutants
for the New York point source inventory is shown in Appendix A.
4.4.3 Mobile Sources
New VorK Metropolitan Transportation Council (NYMTC) provided 1980 daily
mileage estimates for each of its 60 analysis areas in the New York City
Metropolitan area. Mileage for each analysis area was given for five vehicle
types - light duty gas vehicles (LDGV), taxis, light duty gas trucks (LDGT),
heavy duty gas vehicles (HDGV), and heavy duty diesel vehicles (HDDV). For each
vehicle type, mileage was given for three roadway types - freeway, arterial and
local streets. Percentage hot/cold starts were also included for each roadway
type by analysis area.
Trie assignment moae'i tnat generated tne aoove data computes tne venicle
type aistrioution ana percentage not/cold starts on a county-wioe basis. A
review of these data, including comparisons of MOBILES emissions on the county
level, revealed that each borough (county) of New York City should be modeled
separately, while the suburban or surrounding counties had similar enough
characteristics to use a single MOBILES emission simulation. Also, since taxi
mileage was given for only Manhattan, Bronx, Queens and Brooklyn and taxi
the taxis separately.
Table 4.4 shows the vehicle type distribution and percentage hot/cold
starts used in the MOBILES program. The MOBILES version used by the NYSDEC
included all USEPA suggested modifications to the model up to June 1985.

Typical speed scenarios were developed for rush hours, daytime, and
nighttime for the three roadway categories. These are listed in Table 4.5. The
data used in the analysis were obtained from the reports published by the NYS
Deoartment of Transoortation which orovided the hourly percentage of traffic for
15 locations within New York City as well as reports from othe1" "local agencies.
The d">st*"iout"1 or, of total VMT ^or the tn^ee "oaaway tyoe catego^es a^e ""stec

Hourly emissions for each grid we^e ther comouted by summing fo^ each
roadway type the appropriate emission factor times the daily mileage of each
analysis area within the grid, multiolied by the hour"iy percent of traffic and
the percentage of the analysis area in the grid. The appropriate emission
factor denended on the time of day (night, rush nours. in-oetween) and county
(Manhattan, Rest of NYC) which in turn determined the speed, percentages of
not/co id start and the vemcle mix.
4.5 1980 Emissions for the Modeling Domain - Summary
The annual VOC and NO emissions from the three states are summarized in
A
Table 4.7 for the four source categories. These emissions were further
disaggregated as listed in Table 4.8, in g-moles on a daily basis (0400 to 2000
hours), and in terms of CBII species assuming the carbon ratios of 1,2,1,6 and 2
for Paraffins. Olefins, Carbonyls, Aromatics and Ethylenes, respectively. On a
3b;"-centaqe oasis trie moo lie sources contrioute aooiit oC% OT tne i\io Duraen ana
approximately 45% of tne VOC's for a typical day covering the nours of
simulation for the base year 1980. The next important contribution to NO and
VOC's are the area sources, with approximately 28% and 44%, respectively.

factors from 1980 to 1988 for each county were calculated and are listed in
Table 4.9 for the three states. One exception to this method is the category of
gasoline marketing. In the case of New York and Connecticut, the 1982 SIP
regulations reauire the implementation of Stage II vaoor recovery for 1988.
Since such controls were already in place for New Jersey, they were accounted
•""or ir 1980 base year emissions for New Jersey.
-.6.1 Area Sources
Applying the factors listed in Table 4.9 to the 1980 area source inventory,
orojected VOC and NO emissions were calculated for 1988 and are listed ^r
X
Tables 4.10a through 4.10d for Connecticut, New Jersey, New York, and the
•nodeling region respectively.
4.6.2 Point Sources
The 1988 point source emissions were projected based upon control
regulations expected to be in effect prior to 1988. Since the majority of the
major point sources are mainly utility boilers, emission levels are not expected
to change significantly from these sources. However, Connecticut expects the
addition of several resource recovery facilities which will result in a slight
ircrease in emissions under this category.
ociuStantia" emission reauctior.s are expectea, however, from tne minor point
sources. Connecticut proviaea a 1985 inventory in tne format required oy tne
processing programs. It was considered by CTDEP to represent the emission
levels expected to occur in 1988. Therefore, no projection factors were
required for this 'data.
NJDEP utilized the 1930 emission inventory summary by SCC code and
degree of control expected. These factors were then used to project the 1980
inventory to 1988. A similar approach was adopted to project the New York minor
source emissions.

using MOBILES with uodated VMT (vehicle miles travelled) data and emission
factors. New York's 1982 SIP assumed a 2% annual growth rate to project future
years' mileage. The actual annual growth rate through 1985 by county, listec in

type and region are listed in Table 4.12a and in Table 4.12b, along with tne
soeciated emissions summary for the model application. The percentage change
from the 1980 base year (see Table 4.12a) shows that there is an overall
reduction of about 32% and 14% in "the VCC's and NO emissions, respectively.
A
4.7 1988 Emissions Inventory Including Extraordinary Measures
The 1988 projection inventory included only those control strategies that
are implemented to date. Other SIP mandated measures such as Stage II gasoline
vapor recovery, controls on architectural surface coating, automobile
refinishing and consumer/commercial solvent and small source RACT have not been
fully implemented. Thus, each of these measures are assessed separately and
collectively. In Table 4.13a are listed the emission summaries by state and
source type with the imposition of Stage II controls which has effectively
achieved anotner 2« reduction in tne v/OC emissions. «aoption of the otner
control measures noted earlier would result in a furtner reduction of aoout 6>0
in the VOC emissions (see Table 4.13b) or a total reduction of 40% from the 1980
base year.

simulation oeriod (0400 to 2000 Mrs; using the methodologies described in
Chanter 3. The detailed descriptions o* the input data for eacn day a^e given
below.
5.1 Input Data for JD80198(071680) Simulation
On the synoptic scale weatner map for this day, shown in Figure 5.la. ~ne
"Bermuda1' type high pressure area extenaea from the Atlantic Ocean westward
through the southern states. A cold front lay from the Canadian Maritimes
west-southwestward to western Lake Erie, where it became a warm front; the
latter turned west-northwestward into western Wisconsin, where an occluded-cold
frontal structure ran nearly north-south. Weak low pressure was located to the
west of the Lakes, while weak high pressure was found to their east.
The hourly vector-averaged wind speeds and directions for this day are
listed in Table 5.1. The winds were generally from the south-southwest around 4
to 5 m/s. Tne other meteorological parameters are listed in Taoles 5.Z ana 5.5.
Tne mixing neignt reacnea a maximum of 1460 m. The pollutant gradients in tne
vertical and the concentrations at the top of the modeling region are listed in
Table 5.4. The initial surface distributions of the pollutants are shown in
Figure 5.2. The hourly highest and second highest measured ozone concentrations
are listed in Table 5.5. A peak value of 291 ppb occurred over Connecticut.
The diurnal variation of the pollutant concentrations in the southwest corner

The highest and second highest measured hourly ozone concentrations for
this day, listed in Table 5.15, indicate a maximum of 240 ppb at Hartford,
Connecticut with concentrations in excess of 200 ppb at other locations over
Connecticut. The concentrations adopted for the pollutants at the southwest
boundary cell are shown in Figure 5.7.
5.4 Input Data for JD80219(080680)
On this day the synoptic situation, shown in Figure 5.Id, is slightly
different from the previous cases. A break-off extension of the "Bermuda" high
was centered over West Virginia. A frontal zone was draped north of the border
to a low pressure near James Bay.-
The vector-averaged hourly winds are listed in Table 5.16, with speeds
ranging from about 3 to 5 m/s from a south-southwest to southwesterly direction.
The other input meteorological parameters are listed in Tables 5.17 and 5.18.
The pollutant gradients and the concentration at the top of the modeling region
are listed in Table 5.19. The initial surface distributions of the pollutants
for the simulation day are shown in Figure 5.8. The highest and second highest
measured hourly ozone concentrations are listed in Table 5.20 with the highest
value of 249 ppb. The hourly boundary concentrations for the southwest corner
grid are shown in Figure 5.9 to provide an example of the typical values used in
this simulation.
5.5 Input Data for JD80221(080880)
The synoptic weather pattern for this day, shown in Figure 5.1e, consists
3f a aouoi e-structured 'Bermuda'1 mgn with canters over :he Atlantic ana ,'i'est
Virginia. A frontal system arched across the northern part of the country. A
high pressure center was found over James Bay, with a weak low pressure on the
stationary portion of the front over Lake Superior.

CHAPTER 6
MODEL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION
The results of the UAM simulation for the five selected high ozone days are
tne basis of its overa,: predictive capaoiiity and its aoiiity to capture t.-.e
high concentration values through the application of various statistica1
measures recommended by the AMS workshop (Fox, 1981).
6.1 DAM Simulation of the Ozone Concentration Field for the Five Days
Us~'ig the 'node 'lout data described """! the orevious c"aota°, r>e !jAM -/as
executed to provide hourly averaged ozone concentration fields for each of tne
five days. In Figures 6.1 to 6.5 are shown the isopleths of predicted ozone con-
centrations for selected hours when concentration maxima are expected to occur
for each of the five days. One of the characteristic features of the five days
simulated is the occurrence of a double peak over the modeling domain around the
time of the occurrence of the ozone maximum with one peak over the northeastern
portion of Connecticut and the other over the border areas of northeastern
New Jersey-New York. Only in the case of J080219 (080680) was there no clearly
defined double peak. This may be due to the lower advection rate, and limited
mixing in the vertical which could result in the merger of the two peaks. Also,
in some instances, the peak concentration formed over the New Jersey-New York
region is higher than the peak occurring over the Connecticut region suggesting
a strong influence of pollutant transoort through the southern and western
Dounaaries.
5.2 Paired ^omoar-sons - All Data
It should be noted that whereas the UAM predictions represent volume-
averaged hourly concentration values (averaged over the cell volume specified in
the program], the measured concentrations are at monitoring stations ^ecresentea
by points in space. Hence, perfect agreement between measured and predicted
concentrations should be considered as fortuitous. To assess the model per-
formance, the grid point nearest to the monitoring station is located and the
oredicted concentrations at this grid point are compared with the measurements

from the monitoring station. Diurnal plots of the observed and predicted concen-
trations at the monitoring stations are presented in Appendix B. Several
standard statistical measures (Willmott, 1981; Fox, 1981; Rao, et al., 1985) are
computed, and the results are listed in Table 6.1. The high correlation
coefficients (r ., Ql- > 0.098) indicate that the model predictions are reason-

concentrations by about a factor of two as indicated by the mean of ratios of
predicted to the observed concentrations. Of the five days, the two that show
the highest correlation coefficient and index of agreement are 0080203(072180)
and JD8022K080880).
A scatter plot of the observed and oredictsd concentrations *or all data
for each of trie days considered is snown in ?igure 6.5. In addition to :re
one-to-one line (perfect prediction), an envelope of ±30% of the observed
concentrations is shown in the figure by dashed lines. The percentage number of
points lying within ±30%, greater than 30%, and less than 30% are provided in
Table 6.2. The percentage of data within the ±30% envelope for each of the days
is about 30% or better, while the percentage of underprediction is about 10%.
Figure 6.7 is a histogram of the difference between the measured and
predicted concentrations for each of the simulation days. The percentage of
data falling within ±0.03 ppm ranges from 45 to 51% depending upon the simula-
tion day, with the majority of the remaining data generally in the over-
prediction category (OBS-PRED < -0.03 ppm). The exception for this is the
performance on JD80204(072280), (see Figure 6.7) for which about 27% of the data
are in the overprsdiction category. However, examination of the model
oerformance measures listed in Table 6.1 for this day indicates that its slone
and correlation coefficient are sligntiy "ower in comparison vith other days.
For each of the simulation days, the diurnal variation of the mean
difference between the observed and the predicted concentrations along with the
standard deviation of the difference is shown in Figure 5.3. It is interesting
to note that up to about 1300 Hrs the difference is confined to rO.03 ppm, and
for the remaining hours of simulation the mean differences exceed 0.05 ppm,
indicating an overprediction by the model. Also, the error spread in the
afternoon hours is considerably larger than during the morning hours for each of
the days.

6.2.1 Paired Comparison - Data from Connecticut
Since the measured ozone measurements for the five days indicate that the
peak concentrations occur over the Connecticut region, assessment of the model
performance in this region would be of particular interest. Figure 6.9 is a
envelope. In Table 6.3, the percentages of points within, below ana aoove ~ne
±30% envelope for each simulation day as well as the ensemble are listed. ~he
percentage of underprediction is about 10%, with about 50% of the data lying in
the ±30% envelope. In terms of the model performance, the day JD80203(072180)
has 60% of its predictions within the ±30% envelope followed by JD80221(080880)
i.-nth 50%, and in both cases about 9% or "ess of the data are •'n the
jiidsrpraai cti on category.
6.2.2 Paired Comparison - Concentrations Greater Than 100 ppb
It is important to analyze the model performance in simulating high ozone
concentrations in order to provide an assessment of the model's ability to
capture the peak concentration values. Toward this end,' any hourly measured
concentration greater than or equal to 100 ppb and its corresponding predicted
value were examined as a set for (a) the domain as a whole, (b) the Connecticut
region alone, and (c) New York and New Jersey. Scatter plots of the observed
and predicted concentration for each of the five days are shown in Figures 6.10
and 6.11 for the latter two cases, respectively. The percentage of points lying
within, above and below the ±30% envelope are listed in Tables 6.4a, 6.4b, and
6.AC for the entire domain, Connecticut, and New York and New Jersey.
respectively. The model appears to perform quita well, with at least 60% of the

five days over the domain when measured concentrations exceed 100 ppb. The
systematic bias evident when all data are considered (see Figure 6.8) is absent
in this case, and the mean differences between the observed and predicted are
within ±0.05 ppm.
6 . 3 Urea1' yqd Cons arisen
Another way to assess the model performance is through an unpaired com-
parison of the daily maxima of the measured and predicted concentrations at each
of the monitoring stations independent of their time of occurrence. The ratio
between the predicted and measured peaks ranges from 1.29 to 1.72 for the ozone
monitoring network over the tri-state region. The difference in the time of
occurrence of the measured and oredicted oeaks ranges from ±2 hrs Tor the
New Jersey stations to ±5 Hrs for locations in Connecticut with the New York
sites falling in between. A similar analysis of the second rpgnest measured and
second highest predicted concentrations at each of the monitoring stations yields
a ratio in the range of 1.36 to 1.82 with a time difference of ±2 to ±5 Hrs.
However, it should be recognized that, in general, the location of the model
predicted ozone maximum may not necessarily be associated with those locations
where ambient air quality measurements are available. Hence, for the purpose of
comparison, the maximum measured and predicted ozone concentrations (independent
of time and space) for all the five days are provided in Table 6.5. It should
be noted that the measured ozone maxima for these five days are reported from
the monitoring stations in Connecticut, as are the predicted values. The ratio
of predicted to measured hourly maximum concentrations are in the range of 0.70
to 1.00 with a time lag of 0 to 3 Hrs. This indicates that the Tiodel under-
predicts tne pea< vaiue over the modeling domain as well as lags in terms of the

factors SUCH as the uncertainty in tne specification of the initial and boundary
pollutant concentrations, space and time variation in the adopted mixing height,
and the wind fields as well as the lack of day-to-day variations in the emis-
sions data. It should also be noted that meteorological data summarized in
"Taole 2.4 indicate the occurrence of precipitation over portions of :he
simulation region, presumably resulting in some scavenging of the pollutants in
the real atmosphere, while the UAM does not include such processes.

6.4 Model Performance - Summary
The results from the above analysis suggest that the model has performed
reasonably well with about 60% of the predictions in the ±30% envelope about
the perfect prediction line when measured concentrations are greater than 100
oob. Both temooral and soatial comcarisons of the measured aid oredicted
concentrations indicate tnac tne UAH overpreaicts on the average, ,-iowever, t,: =
model is found to underpredict for the subset comprised of measured concentra-
tions greater than or equal to 200 ppb. The model performance for the days
JD80203(072180) and JD80221(080880) is, in general, better than the other three
days with a tendency to underpredict the peak concentrations. Simulation
studies conducted for Tulsa (Reynolds, et al., 1982), St. Louis (Cole, et al . ,
1983), and Philadelphia (Haney and Braverman, 1985) using the DAM have reoortec
similar results. The fact that the model does not reproduce tne measured
maximum concentrations in tne modeling domain should not aeter its application
in emissions control strategy evaluations, as long as the estimated ozone
concentrations due to the imposition of specific controls are assessed in a
relative sense.
6.5 Modeling Limitations
It is well known that several sources of uncertainty exist in air quality
modeling that could affect the predicted concentrations of the pollutants.
These uncertainties can be broadly categorized as "reducible" and "inherent"
uncertainties. Errors in the input data to the model as well as inadequate
formulation of the physical and chemical processes in the model lead to
reducible uncertainty since uncertainties associated with these can be minimized
tnrougn -riore accurate ^nout aata as .veil as 'moroved noae i "ormuiat^on.
Inherent uncertainty stems ^om the stochastic nature of the atmosphere. Mo
matter how perfect the model and the input data are, the imprecision cannot be
reduced below a fundamental level because of the lack of predictability of the
transport and diffusion processes in the atmosphere. Therefore, the model
estimates will almost always differ ^rom the measured concentrations. yowever.
an understanding of the input uncertainty arising from errors in measurements,
errors in estimation, non-representativeness of the data, etc., will enable
proper interpretation of the modeling results.
-------
-123-
As mentioned before, the the numerical modeling approach adopted here is
data-intensive. It should be recognized that errors stemming from sparsity of
available data and the approximations used to generate information at each grid
point for each variable will propagate through the model and affect the
predicted concentrations. Quantification of the modeling uncertainty due to the
proolem. No attempts are made in mis report to quantify the JAM limitations or
uncertainties associated with the DAM application to the New York Metroooiitan
area because of the complexity of the problem. Evaluation of the modeling
uncertainty is beyond the scope of this study.

CONTROL STRATEGY SIMULATIONS

attainment of the NAAQS for ozone in the New York Metropolitan area. ~o
this end, the (JAM has been applied for five high ozone days occurring in "he
1980 ozone season. Evaluation of the model performance in predicting the
measured ozone levels revealed best performance of the model on two days -
JD80203(072180) and J080221(080880). Hence, these days were selected for
assessing the impact of emissions control strategies on 'the ambient ozore
concentrations. An emissions ;nventory oasea ^pon :.'ie I35Z C;a;e I,np . ementa;'. ::•
°lans (SIPs) for 1988 was prepared and the 'JAM simulation was oer^orTied for
these two days with appropriate modifications to the initial and boundary ai^
quality conditions, keeping the meteorological conditions the same as those for
the 1980 base year cases. In this section, the results of the various control
strategy scenarios are presented and are compared with the base case(s) to
evaluate the effect of emissions reduction plans on the ambient ozone
concentrations in the study region.
7.1 Initial and Boundary Conditions
The methodology adopted for defining the initial and boundary conditions
for the control strategy simulations was as follows. For the initial
conditions, a comoarison was made between the projected 1988 NO and '/OC
A
emissions and those of the 1980 base case, and the percentage Deductions *or

applied to scale the base year initial NO, and VOC concentration fields f^om the
/\
surface up to the top of vertical layer 3 (tnrough the mixed layer), under the
assumption that the changes in the precursor emissions have a similar effect on
the ambient concentration fields. The 1988 VOC and NO concentrations at the
boundaries were obtained by reducing the base year boundary concentrations of
VOC and NO by 40% and 20%, respectively, based upon the upwind region SIPs.
A
In the case of ozone, no direct methods are available to estimate the

emissions levels. Given that the ozone concentrations at the top of the
modeling region for the five simulated days in the base year are in the range of
60 to 85 ppb, the proposed changes in the emissions both upwind and in the
domain could result in a reduction of about 20 to 30% or in the 40 to 60 ppb
range for ozone levels at the top of the modeling domain. These estimates are
consistent with the suggested background levels (Wolff and lio«. 19~8: '<<*', ' <.
et. a!., 1984). Another metnoa is to apply tne E.KMA procedure (E.?n, ^9c-+; :o
estimate the expected changes in the ozone concentrations from changes in the
VOC and NO levels. This procedure, results in a reduction of about 18% in
X
ozone for an assumed change in the VOC and NO levels of 40% and 20%,
A
respectively. In this study, as a first approximation, a 20% reduction from the
ambient 1980 ozone levels was adopted for estimating the 1988 ozone concentra-
tions for the region too and the initial and boundary fields. As an examo"1- of
the 1988 boundary conditions, the changes in the NMHC and ozone concentrations
for the southwest corner surface grid ceil for the two days JD3G203f072150) ana
JD80221(080880), are shown in Figure 7.la and 7.1b, respectively.
7.2 Control Strategies
A set of six control strategy scenario simulations (CSSS), listed in Table
7.1, was performed to evaluate five control strategies proposed by the project
(OMNYMAP) Policy and Technical Committees with three of the five strategies
utilizing measures implemented and/or proposed in the current SIPs of the three
states. The CSSS Runs 1 and 2 are based upon the projected 1988 emissions with
the meteorological conditions prevailing on the days JD80203(072180) and
JD80221(080880), respectively. The changes in the emissions resulting from the
various control strategies are listed in Taoie 7.2. In che case of C333 Runs 1

7.3 Results and Discussion
The spatial distributions of ozone for CSSS Runs 1 and 2 for the hours when
peak concentrations are expected to occur are shown in Figure 7.2. For both
days, the isopleths show the occurrence of a double peak similar to the base
case although the oeak value over the modeling domain has decreased "^om
JD80221(080880) case. The relative reduction in the peak concentration is
approximately 19% in both cases for an emissions reduction of 32% in the VOC's
and 14% in the NO over the modeling domain from the base year. The areal
X
extent of the decrease in the level of ozone exceedances was examined by
counting the number of cells equal to or exceeding the concentration of 125 ppb
r"or each nour starting at 0900. This is snown as a nistogram plot in Figure 7.3
ooth for the entire modeling domain (667 cells/ as weii as for trie Connecticut
region alone (203 cells). Cn a percentage basis for the peak czcne rcur ;f
1500, the decrease in the number of ceils (areal extent) is aoout 50% for
JD80203(072180) compared with about 20% for the JD80221(080880) case for the
entire domain as well as for the Connecticut region for the peak ozone hour of
1500. This may be due to the differences in the prevailing meteorological and
initial/boundary conditions on these two days.
The runs, CSSS Run 5 and Run 6, are an extension of the control strategies
to further reduce the 1988 emissions with tne imposition of additional controls
on gasoline vapors in New York and Connecticut (marketing and motor vehicles -
CSSS Run 5) and the implementation of controls on (a)architecture coatings,
(b)auto body refinishing, (c)consumer/commercial solvents, and (d) small source

effects of emissions reductions on ozone levels, the predicted concentration
^ields for CSSS Run 5 were subtracted from those of CSSS Run 1 ^or the hours of
highest concentrations (1400 and 1500 Hrs) and are shown in Figure 7.4. The
differences are of the oroer of 1 oob over the Connecticut region wrnch -: s
essentially within the noise range and, therefore, the additional controls in
New York and Connecticut arising from CSSS Run 5 have very little impact on the
reduction of the ozone levels in the domain on this day.

is shown in Figures 7.3a and 7.3b for the entire domain and for the Connecticut
region only. Comparisons between the results of CSSS Run 1 and CSSS Run 6
10% for tne entire domain, as well as for the Connecticut region alone.
Although the controls identified under CSSS Run 6 are not explicitly evaluated
with the meteorological conditions prevailing on JD80221(080880), from a
comparison of the results of CSSS Run 2 with the corresponding base case it
should become evident that these emissions reductions cannot result in ozone
concentrations below the level of the ozone NAAOS. Thus, while the reduction in
9.7ii~34cns under CS2o "Run 5 has 'esulted "n a ^r-ther "eduction •" t~e ?. re~~
extent of the ozone exceedances, these strategies cannot reduce the peak ozone
concentration in the New York Metropolitan area to the level of the ozone MAAQS.
Two other runs, CSSS Run 3 and CSSS Run 4, were performed to evaluate the
effects of emissions controls imposed over the Connecticut region only. In CSSS
Run 3 the 1980 base year inventory was utilized to exclude all VOC emissions
from the Connecticut region, and CSSS Run 4 was based upon a 50% reduction in
the 1988 NO emissions from Connecticut. The results of these two simulations
/\
are presented in terms of the difference maps in Figures 7.6a and 7.6b. In the
case of CSSS Run 3, the decrease in the ozone levels is on the order of 6 to 8
ppb over the northeast portion of the domain, while in the case of CSSS Run 4,
the change is ±3 ppb. Thus, these reductions of VOC and NO emissions in the
X
Connecticut area alone have minimal or no effect on the predicted ozone levels
over the modeling domain.
In summary, the UAM simulations for the two days with the control measures
identified in the SIPs for the New /ork Metropolitan area demonstrate that
(a) there is an overall improvement in the ozone concentration levels from the
1980 base year, and (b) the peak ozone concentrations would not likely be
Deduced to levels at or below that of the ozone ^AAQS in the 1988 ozone season.

NAAQS for ozone during tne 1988 ozone season. To anaerstano how some or ~~~
input variables affect the predicted ozone concentrations, six sensitivity runs
were performed with this data base. For each of these runs, meteorological
conditions prevailing on JD80203(072180) were considered, since model evaluation
results indicate "best" model performance on this day, with variations in the
(JAM input data bases of initial and boundary concentrations and emissions. In
this section the methodology aaootea to oerform the sensitivity runs 15
presented along with the results and tneir implications.
8.1 Initial and Boundary Concentrations
A set of initial concentrations for the pollutants NMHC, NO , CL, and CO
A O
was selected to be representative of "clean" background conditions and is
reflective of "minimum" ambient concentration levels. The pollutant concentra-
tions for the "clean" conditions, listed in Table 8.1, are assumed to be uniform
across the domain. Similarly, when a "clean" boundary condition was desired,
the concentrations in Table 8.1 were used for the boundaries as well as for the
region top.
The sensitivity tests were designed to evaluate the influence of initial
ana boundary concentrations ana emissions on the predictea ozone concentrations
:n the -nodeling domain. A :ota"i of six sensitivity -uns. "isted 4-n "aoie 3.2.
were performed and the ^esuits are discussed below.
8.1.1 Sensitivity Run 1
This simulation was designed to evaluate the effects of initial conditions
with "clean" air influx into the modeling domain; the emissions in the domain
were "turned off". The initial conditions at the beginning of the simulation
reflect the interaction of the base year emissions in the domain up to the start

of the simulation as well as pollutant transport from upwind regions. A peak
ozone value of 107 ppb was predicted in the Connecticut region with lower
concentrations over the rest of the modeling domain. This run demonstrates that
even with the exclusion of emissions and pollutant transport into the modeling
domain, reasonable initial conditions alone could produce ozone levels of the
order of 100 opb.
8.1.2 Sensitivity Run 2
In this simulation, the effect of 1988 emissions alone was evaluated by
imposing "clean" pollutant levels both for the initial concentration fields and
for the boundary (transport) conditions. The peak value of ozone formed under
tnese conditions was 43 ppb over me Connecticut region, far below the ieveis
projected from CSSS Run 1, indicating the importance of tne roie of tne initial
as well as pollutant influx "hrougn cne lateral boundaries arc region ~op.
8.1.3 Sensitivity Run 3
In contrast to the previous run where "clean" conditions were considered
for the initial and transported pollutant fields, this run incorporates
"realistic" initial and transported pollutant concentrations from CSSS Run 1
with the emissions "turned off". The effect of these "realistic" conditions is
that over the Connecticut region an ozone peak value of 158 ppb was predicted
with concentrations exceeding 125 ppb for parts of New York and New Jersey. The
area! distribution of ozone for 1400 Hrs., shown in Figure 8.1, has the
characteristic double peak formation, revealing the importance of the
"realistic" initial and boundary 'ields.
3.1.4 Sensitivity Run ^
In this run, the influence of the peak ozone levels formed from the lateral
transport of pollutants into the domain is examined by setting the
concentrations at the too of the region to the "c1ean" "'evel while retaining the
boundary conditions to reflect those of CSSS Run 1. Also, the initial pollutant
fields were set to the "clean" conditions with no emissions in the domain. This

simulation, shown in Figure 8.1, indicates ozone concentrations exceeding
125 ppb over New Jersey, and levels reaching 100 and 50 ppb over New York and
Connecticut, respectively. This suggests that the boundary fields play a role
in the generation of the peak over the New Jersey - New York area in addition to
contributing to the peak over the Connecticut region.
5.1.5 Sensi ti vi ty RLII 5
This run complements the previous run such that the pollutant
concentrations at the top of the region were set to those of CSSS Run 1, or to
the "realistic" levels. There were no emissions within the domain and the
initial pollutant fields were set to the "clean" conditions. The areal
distribution of ozone for this simulation, shown in Figure 8.1, nas wide areas
exceeding 125 ppb over much of New Jersey, New York and portions c~ southwestern
Connecticut. This simulation, in contrast to sensitivity Run 3. demonstrates
the role of the initial conditions on the prediction of peak ozone levels over
Connecticut.
8.1.6 Sensitivity Run 6
In this run, the effect of inclusion of emissions with realistic initial
conditions and "clean" concentrations for the region top and boundaries was
examined. This run can be compared with Sensitivity Run 2 in which the initial
conditions and transported pollutants were set to the "clean" level. This
simulation yields no exceedances of the ozone NAAQS over New Jersey or New York
but predicts a peak ozone value of 158 ppb over the Connecticut region. In

and "TiDortance of the "nitial oollutant fields.

8.2 Discussion
Six sensitivity runs were performed to examine the effects of transport of
pollutants into the New York Metropolitan area coupled with the emissions from
the region. In all these runs, the adopted boundary conditions refer either to
those included in Table 8.1 as the "clean" influx or to thoss adooted ^rom CSSS
Run 1, as cnscussea in Chapter 7. It ;-,ouia oe cruaent tc assess .jr,et.:er cr.e
ozone concentrations exceeding 125 ppb during 14-00 to 1600 Mrs. at the southwest
boundary will affect the predicted concentration fields in the New Jersey area.
Examination of the isopleths for Sensitivity Run 5 (see Figure 8.1) shows that
the peak value of 156 ppb occurs approximately 120 km from the southwest
boundary. During this period the winds were from a south-southwesterly
direction at 4 to 5 m/s suggesting a travel time of 6 to 8 Hrs. ~or trie admass
from the southwest boundary to reach the location of the peak concentrat1on.
Thus, tnese hign ozone levels at this oounaary snould nave little effect on trie
predicted peak ozone concentration in the New Jersey area. However, the cells
near the southwest boundary could be affected by the transport of ozone
exceeding 125 ppb (Sensitivity Run 4), and perhaps the peak ozone concentration
of 131 ppb in Figure 8.1 could be attributed solely to this high ozone influx.
Sensitivity Run 3, in which the emissions have been "turned off" predicts
concentrations in excess of NAAQS over the modeling domain just from the initial
concentrations and pollutant transport, while Sensitivity Run 6 reveals that
"turning off" the influx of concentrations into the domain but including
emissions will also result in similar exceedances of the NAAQS over the region.
Furthermore, emissions alone within the domain, without the influence of the
initial and boundary concentrations (Sensitivity Run 2), result in a peak ozone
of 43 ppb over Connecticut. Thus, i: is evident tnat controls or reductions ;n

CHAPTER 9
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
In this study, the Urban Airshed Model (UAM) was used to simulate five high
.'rone javs ' "• ~he _9£G :z3'r;3 ^easco "~'T=s3 -----a ^ayc -«er" "hvr ~ ct~'~' is-1. ~
excaedances of tne ozone NAAQS over wide areas of cne New Yorv. Mecrcco ',-a,i
region consisting of portions of the States of New Jersey, New York, ana
Connecticut. Typical meteorological conditions associated with high ozone days
are as follows: (a) winds from the south to southwest at 4 to 5 m/s, (b) surface
temperatures in excess of 80's°F, and (c) a high pressure system over the
Atlantic, ridged westv/ard through the southern states.
The New York Metropolitan area lies within the emissions-rich Northeast
urban corridor with significant inter-urban transport of ozone and its
precursors. All five days simulated show the occurrence of two peaks, one over
central Connecticut attributable primarily to emissions from the NY/NJ area, and
the other over the northeastern New Jersey and New York border areas attribut-
able to the influx of ozone and its precursors into the modeling domain from the
upwind boundary.
The first part of the study was designed to adoot the UAM to the New York
Metropolitan area, and to assess the model's performance in simulating observed
ozone concentrations. Analysis of modeling results revealed that although the
model underpredicts the peak concentrations over the modeling domain, the
performance of the model in predicting within the ±30% envelope of the measured
concentration levels is reasonable both on an individual day basis as well as on
an ensemole oasis. ~he Jer^ormanca stat" sti C3 of concentrations greater :han
100 ppb over the entire modeling domain or over the New Jersey-New vork region
or over the Connecticut region revealed that at least 60% of the model
predictions were within the ±30% of their corresponding observed concentrations.
Of the five days that were simulated, two days, JD80203(072180^ ana
JD80221(080880), were used in the detailed evaluation of the control measures
identified in the State Implementation Plans of the three states for attaining
the NAAQS for ozone. The reductions in the VOC and NO emissions in the
A
modeling region in 1988 were estimated to be 32% and 14%, respectively, from the
-------
-148-
1980 base year emissions. Assuming that the SIP and motor vehicle reductions in
the upwind emissions will occur in 1988, concentration levels at the boundaries
were reduced by 40% in VOC, 20% in NO , and 20% in ozone from their 1980 levels,
A
The UAM simulations for the two selected days with the projected 1988 emissions
indicate that the peak ozone level over the Connecticut region decreases by
about 20% from the 1980 level but is still well above the MAAQS for ozone. The
50% depending upon the simulation day.

under the SIPs, upon such source categories as architectural coatings, auto

these extraordinary control measures result in only a marginal ^morovement "" n
the peak ozone level and in the areal extent of the ozone exceedances. Thus, it
is evident that even with these proposed control measures of VOC and NO
X
emissions in the New York Metropolitan area, the peak ozone levels can be
expected to be well above the ozone NAAQS during the 1988 ozone season.
In an attempt to assess the influence of the initial and boundary condi-
tions, and emissions on the predicted ozone levels, several model sensitivity
simulations were performed using the JD80203(072180) meteorological conditions.
The results indicate that even when the emissions in the New York Metropolitan
area are "turned off", transport into the modeling domain alone could lead to
exceedances of the NAAQS over the region. Peak ozone levels in this scenario
are comoarable to those predicted by a 40% VOC emissions reduction strategy
'CSSS Run 5). Further, hypothetical! y "clean" air ^nfux through the boundaries
and ''realistic" initial conditions and emissions also result in exceedancs of
the MAAQS. However, neither of these extreme cases, "turning off" the emissions
in the modeling domain or having the modeling domain surrounded oy "clean"
boundaries, are realistic assumptions.
-------
-149-
The results presented here strongly suggest that both emissions reductions
within the New York Metropolitan area and further reductions in ozone and its
precursors transport from the upwind areas are necessary to meet and maintain
the ozone NAAQS in the region. Clearly, additional modeling analyses are needed
to document the level of control required to achieve the NAAQS for ozone in the

Temporal and Speciation Factors for Area and Point Source Emissions
The total VOC and NO emission inputs were divided into the DAM required

hydrocarbon species and/or NO-NO,, splits using the data developed by Engineering
Sciences for USEPA ^EPA, 1982. Temporal factors for araa sour;a emissions
detailed in the ES study were adopted in this application.
In the case of point source categories not included in the ES study,
appropriate factors were determined based upon similarities in fuels burned
and/or orocess description. For example, emissions from bituminous coal fired
utility boilers were assumed to have the same component solics regardless of :na
manner in which the fuel was burned, and in the following Tables are listed tne
factors used in the QMNYMAP study:

APPENDIX B
Diurnal Plots of Predicted and Measured Ozone Concentrations
The diurnal variation of the measured and predicted ozone concentrations at
the monitoring stations in the OMNYMAP domain, see Figure B-I, are presentee for
each of the five days. These diurnal plots presented in this manner are helpful
in providing a qualitative assessment of the UAM performance.

SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES
"^ nfeAcq"oal s of the "Oxidant Modeling for the New vor'< Metropolitan Area
MNYMAP)" are to examine (a) the extent and magnitude of the ozone proolem i-1 trip New
rk area; (b) the impact of specific control strategies committed to by New Jersey,
w York and Connecticut in the 1982 State Implementation Plans (SIPs);"(c) the role of
'llutant transport from upwind regions; and (d) strategies to meet and maintain ozone
AQS in the New York area. In this study, the urban AIRSHED model was used to simulate
ve high ozone days in the 1980 oxidant season. The model results were analyzed to
sess'the performance of the model in simulating the observed ozone concentrations.
amining the data set of ozone concentrations greater than 100 ppb reveals that 60% of
e predicted values were within ±30% of their corresponding observed concentrations.
wever, the model has a tendency to underpredict the peak concentrations over the
deling domain. The results of simulating the emissions controls to be implemented by
88 indicate that although there is a decrease in the peak ozone levels, predicted
mcentrations are well above the NAAQS for ozone. Even with the imposition of extra-
•dinary emissions control measures, the results of a one day simulation reveal that
e peak ozone level continues to be well above the NAAQS, Analysis of the sensitivity j
r the ozone predictions to specific model inputs indicates that pollutant transport is
iportant and that additional modeling is necessary to quantify the level of controls
;quired to meet the ozone NAAQS in this area.
