Enclosed is a copy of -an IE/ample Scope of Work for Contracts
to Prepare SIP Revisions to/wttVin and Maintain NAAQS". Comments received
from reviewers of ari earlier draft have been incorporated.
The purpose of this example is to assist the Regional Offices in
providing guidance to States developing Air Quality Maintenance Plans or
other SIP revisions.
Parts of the example were developed from portions of completed con-
tracts provided by Tom Williams, Program Resources Section, Control Pro-
grams Operations Branch, CPDD. However, these contracts did not contain
extensive information on strategies or plan development, and material from
other sources was therefore used to develop portions of the example con-
tract dealing with those subjects. In the case of the section on
Preparation of SIP Revisions, the material is basically a summary of
the requirements of 40 CFR Part 51 Subpart D regulations.
We believe that many States which need (contractual) assistance are
still in the early stages of developing SIP revisions, and the RO should
find this material helpful in assisting those States. The material may
also be helpful in preparing (contractual) assistance for upgrading
emission inventories, providing modeling assistance, etc., and preparing
SIP revisions, in the future.
It is anticipated that in many cases States and Regional Offices will
want to focus on certain aspects of analysis and plan development at a
particular time or in a specific contract. For that purpose, portions of the
example can be excerpted as needed.
We would like to thank those who have commented on the previous draft.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
EXAMPLE SCOPE OF WORK FOR CONTRACTS
TO PREPARE SIP REVISIONS
I. PURPOSE OF EXAMPLE
This example Scope of Work is intended to show what tasks should
be considered in preparing contracts to develop SIP revisions for
attainment and/or maintenance of the NAAQS where the provisions of
40 CFR 51 Subpart D apply.
As specified in 40 CFR Part 51 regulations, the State has
responsibility for developing the SIP revisions for attainment and
maintenance of NAAQS (hereafter referred to as "SIP revisions"), and
in many cases, the State may perform all of the tasks themselves.
However, it is assumed for purposes of this example that a contrac-
tor will develop the SIP revisions for the State under the direction
of an EPA Project Officer.
The tasks and procedures described in this example are based
on 40 CFR Part 51 regulations, with emphasis on the provisions of
Subpart D published Kay 3, 1976 (40 FR 18382). Some of the indivi-
dual tasks and procedures are not specifically required by the
regulations, but are based on recommendations contained in the Air
Quality Maintenance Guidelines or related guidelines. These tasks
and procedures are included here in order that the contract Project
Officer may consider them in writing a scope of work to meet spe-
cific needs as well as to complete the detailed tasks necessary to
comply with the regulations.
-------
The extent to which elements of this example are used will depend
on the relative severity of the problems being confronted and the re-
sources which are available. A metropolitan area with complex attain-
ment/maintenance problems will need detailed analyses performed and
comprehensive strategies developed if the air quality problems are to
be effectively resolved. Other areas where problems are less corrplex
may not need as much effort spent on analyses or strategies and the
level of detail will be less.
The general work areas to be considered are baseline data collec-
tion, emission problems, emission allocations, modeling, analysis of
modeling results, strategy testing and preparation of the revisions
themselves.
References which may be helpful to Project Officers and contrac-
tors are included in an Appendix.
II. PROCEDURES
Once a contract to develop a SIP revision is awarded, the fol-
lowing general procedures should be used.
A. Detailed Work Plan
Before a contractor performs any extensive data gathering,
compiles emissions and air quality data, performs any modeling cal-
culations, or undertakes any other major tasks, he should meet with
the Project Officer or his representative, during the first week or
two of the contract to outline a detailed work plan. This work plan
should include a time schedule for completion of major steps; identity
-------
of persons who will perform the work; hours to be spent by each; de-
tailed costs, Including labor, travel, printing and overhead; and a
complete description of the specific methodologies to be used, in-
cluding a discussion of any necessary computer work. After the work
plan is developed, the contractor should meet with the Project Officer,
State and local pollution control agencies, describe the plan, and
solicit comments and suggestions on the applicability of the plan for
meeting the specific needs of the area. Comments should be incorpora-
ted into the plan, and additional elements of the plan should be
developed to resolve any remaining problems. Once the work plan is
approved by the Project Officer, the contractor should be required to
follow it completely and no changes should be allowed without the
written approval of the Project Officer. If any changes are necessary,
the contractor should describe the details in writing together with
the amount of additional work required.
B. Development of SIP Revisions
The contractor should be required to perform all work on the SIP
revisions in accordance with applicable 40 CFR Part 51 regulations,
including Subpart D published May 3, 1976 (40 FR 18382), and applicable
Guidelines for Air Quality Maintenance Planning and Analysis. The
Project Officer should specify which of the guidelines are applicable.
In order to ensure that the SIP revisions will be effectively imple-
mented and enforced, it is important that the contractor, under the
direction of the Project Officer, consult and coordinate with State
-------
and local agencies and other agencies identified under Section 51.58
of the 40 CFR Part 51 regulations, during the entire development of
the revisions.
The contractor should also maintain contact with the Project
Officer during the entire period of the contract, and meet with him
as necessary. Any difficulties that may affect completion of the
project tasks on schedule should be indicated to the Project Officer
as soon as they become evident.
C. Model i ng Requi rements
Recommended simulation models are given 1n Volume 12 of the Main-
tenance Guidelines. The models actually used will depend upon the re-
sources, and technical expertise, as well as the detail and accuracy
of emissions, meteorological and air quality data which are available.
Before preparing a scope of work for a specific contract involving
modeling, the Project Officer should check with the Source Receptor
Analysis Branch, Monitoring and Data Analysis Division of OAQPS for
the latest guidance on recommended models.
Whenever possible, the Project Officer should specify in the
scope of work the number of strategies which are to be tested, as well
as the number of air quality projections required, in order that the
number of modeling runs can be determined.
A minimum of 3 modeling runs will be required for air quality
analysis per 40 CFR 51.51, plus a run for each strategy to be tested
for the last year in which the plan is to be effective, and any other
Intermediate year which may be specified per 40 CFR 51.53.
-------
D. Review of Past Studies
The Project Officer should provide copies of any pertinent past
studies conducted in the area, as well as copies of all available
emissions and air quality data from NEDS and SAROAD. The contractor
should thoroughly review these studies and data for use in the con-
tract.
E- Definition of the Area
In order for a SIP revision to be realistic and effective, the
area to which it applies should be specifically defined. Although
168 areas have been designated as Air Quality Maintenance Areas (as
described in Volume 14 of the Guidelines), a State may develop an
attainment/maintenance plan for any other area which is found to
need one, in accordance with the provisions of Section 51.12. How-
ever, in each case the jurisdictional boundaries of the area should
be clearly identified, in order that the correct emissions data will
be used as input to the models, and effective strategies can be
developed. Where important sources and/or receptors are outside of
the study area, provision should be made to explicitly consider them
in the study area analysis.
F. Level of Detail
Updating of the emissions inventory, projecting emissions, and
allocating emissions can be performed using Level or Order 1, 2, or
3 procedures as described 1n Volumes 7 or 13. It is assumed for
the purpose of this example that the most detailed and accurate level
(or order) 3 procedures are used. However, the Project Officer may
specify levels (orders) 1 or 2 in accordance with the requirements of
the models to be used, and the resources available.
5
-------
G. Modular Sections
This example Scope of Work is written in sections, and the Project
Officer may select only those sections or portions of sections which
apply to his needs. Some tasks, such as updating the emission inven-
tory, may have already been completed, in which case, the Project
Officer will want to use only the applicable sections. Other tasks
may not be required if the Project Officer considers them to be un-
necessary to a particular project or if resources do not permit them.
H. Alternative Procedures
The Project Officer may wish to add tasks not included in this
example or substitute other tasks. As provided for in 40 CFR 51.63,
a State may request the approval of the Regional Administrator to
use alternative procedures for conducting certain portions of the
analysis and development of proposals for SIP revisions. For any such
tasks, the Project Officer should specify in the scope of work exactly
what requirements must be met and what problems are to be addressed
by the contractor.
I. Forthcoming Techniques
A feasibility study has been started (as of August 1, 1976) by
Argonne National Laboratory for the development of a Computerized
Emissions Projection and Allocation System (CEPA). The existing sys-
tems being evaluated are:
1. Manual System, using Volumes 7 and 13 of the Guidelines Series,
2. Automated System using entirely new software based on Volumes
7 and 13 of the Guidelines Series.
-------
3. Automated System incorporating all or some of the following,
in whole or in part:
a. Computer-Assisted Area Source Emission Gridding Proce-
dure (CAASE)
b. Regional Emission Projecting System (REPS)
c. Air Quality for Urban and Industrial Planning (AQUIP).
The feasibility study is due to be completed by April 1977. If
EPA decides to develop CEPA based upon the feasibility study results,
the model will be ready about December 1977. In that case, this ex-
ample scope of work will be modified to include the CEPA material.
J. Distribution of Report
When the contractor has completed the report, he will submit an
appropriate number of copies to the Project Officer. The contractor
will also submit detailed data and calculations used in analysis and
development of the SIP revisions. The Project Officer should then
send copies of the report, and the detailed data and calculations to
the appropriate State and local agencies responsible for submitting
the SIP revisions to EPA. These agencies can retain the data and
calculations and modify the contractor's report as they desire for
submittal to EPA.

EXAMPLE SCOPE OF WORK
I. INTRODUCTION
The scope of work shall identify the area for which the SIP
revisions will be developed. Important sources outside the area shall
also be included in the analysis. All work shall be performed in
accordance with the 40 CFR Part 51 regulations concerning require-
ments for preparation, adoption, and submittal of implementation plans
and the Guidelines for Air Quality Maintenance Planning and Analysis
as appropriate. In case of a conflict between the Guidelines and the
regulations, the regulations shall govern. The Project Officer will
specify those guidelines or parts thereof which are applicable. Vari-
ance from the methods and procedures specified shall be made only with
his concurrence. If any tasks are affected by changes in the Guide-
lines or regulations, the contractor shall negotiate any additional
costs with the Contracts Office.
II. WORK PLAN
Prior to starting work on the SIP revision, the contractor shall
meet with the Project Officer, and all State and local agencies spe-
cified by the Project Officer, and prepare a detailed work plan. The
work plan shall describe the major tasks to be performed, a time
schedule for completion of each task, cost breakdown by tasks, and
a complete description of the specific methodologies to be used, in-
cluding any computer work. The contractor shall present this work plan
to the Project Officer and the agencies specified by him. Any changes
-------
suggested by them and considered necessary by the Project Officer,
shall be incorporated by the contractor insofar as allowed by the gen-
eral scope of work. Any additional costs shall be handled through the
Contracts Office. Once the work plan is approved by the Project Officer,
no deviation from the plan will be permitted without written approval
of the Project Officer.
III. BASELINE DATA
A. Emission Inventory
1. For the pollutants specified by the Project Officer, the con-
tractor shall update (or develop) an inventory of annual emissions for
point, area, and line sources using the National Emission Report (NER)
P
format, (Table 7.1 in Volume 7 ) and using the updating procedures des-
cribed in Volume 7. Level 3 procedures described in Volume 7, (the most
detailed and accurate) shall be used unless otherwise specified by the
Project Officer. The contractor shall submit summaries of baseline emis-
sions in accordance with 40 CFR 51.51.
2. For those pollutants being studied the point source inventory
shall include any facility which has the potential to emit 100 tons or
more per year of any pollutant. The contractor shall obtain (or develop)
the information needed to model these point sources such as stack height,
diameter, temperature, and velocity of stack gases, etc.
3. Potential emissions shall be defined as being the emissions
that would occur if any existing control equipment were removed or
deactivated. (Potential emissions are calculated by dividing the exis-
ting annual emissions estimate by the factor one minus the efficiency
of the control device, if any).
-------
4. For interstate areas, unless alternative procedures are approved
by the Administrator under § 51.63, the same regional emission inventory
shall be used as the basis for analysis in the constituent states as
specified in 40 CFR 51.48.
5. All emissions data collected and updated under this contract
that have not been previously sent to EPA shall be submitted in machine
readable format to the EPA Regional Office Aeros contact. This data
shall also be made available to the State if the Project Officer deter-
mines that it is needed to update their files.
6. Coding and keypunching errors shall be checked by the contractor
prior to submission and all errors found by EPA in edit checks must be
corrected by the contractor. All data rejected by EPA. shall be cor-
rected and resubmitted by the contractor. The cost to perform these
tasks shall be separately identified by the contractor.
7. The Project Officer shall specify if the existing state and
local data are to be updated or if a completely new inventory is to be
developed.
8. The area source emission inventory for TSP and S02 shall include,
in addition to annual estimates, estimates in tons per season as defined
below.
a. Winter - Dec., Jan., and Feb.
b. Spring - March, April, and May
c. Summer - June, July, and August
d. Fall - Sept., Oct., and Nov.
The contractor shall consult with the Project Officer and agree
on the sources of data to be used. The contractor shall reference
-------
all sources of data used in development of the plan and work through
the Project Officer in arranging initial contacts for sources of data.
[References 2-10 can be used in compiling and updating the
emission inventory.]
B. Air Quality Data
1. Air quality data used in the data base shall conform to the
requirements of 40 CFR 51.48. For interstate areas, unless alternative
procedures are approved by the Project Officer, the same regional air
quality baseline shall be used for analysis in the constituent states.
2. Only data obtained in accordance with monitoring methods speci-
fied in 40 CFR 51.17a shall be used.
3. All air quality data used in the baseline which has not been
previously submitted to EPA will be identified in accordance with the
forms specified in 40 CFR 51.7(a)(2).
4. The contractor shall gather, review and evaluate air quality
data from all available sources, including SAROAD, and State and local
agencies, through Regional Office Aeros contacts. The contractor shall
evaluate the data for:
a. Reliability - To determine if samples have been collected
and processed according to acceptable quality control practices.
[See "Quality Control Practices in Processing Air Pollution Samples
APTD 1132.]]1
-------
b. Suitability for calibrating dispersion models - The contrac-
tor shall ensure that when possible the air quality data used are
for the same baseline year as for the emission inventory and that
all data are for the same year. Substitute data may be used, if
necessary, with the approval of the Project Officer.
c. Representativeness - The contractor shall obtain data for
specific areas, including hot spots, background concentrations, and
areas with the highest population density or total population -
1?
[see page 31 of Volume 11, "Air Quality Monitoring and Data Analysis". ]
5. To ensure that air quality data used are representative of the
area, the contractor shall, as required by the Project Officer, review
monitoring methods and site characteristics, including distances from
major pollutant sources and the location of the instrument probe, its
height above ground, and distance from surfaces and minor sources includ-
ing chimneys, incineration flues, laboratory hood vents, etc. Only data
obtained by acceptable monitoring methods and instruments which are cor-
rectly sited, shall be used. [Siting guidelines are shown on pages 25-
32 of reference 13 and acceptable measuring methods are described on
page 31 of Volume II.12]
6. When data for averaging times specified in the NAAQS are not
available, the contractor shall estimate concentrations using Larsen's
statistical methods as detailed in AP-89.
7. The contractor shall point out any deficiencies in the air
quality data or in the procedures for acquiring reliable, accurate air
quality data to the Project Officer 1n the appropriate progress reports
together with suggestions for specific corrective actions.
-------
8. The contractor shall, at the discretion of the Project Officer,
analyze air quality for the base year with regard to correlations with
specific sources or classes of sources, and meteorology.
[References 16 through 19 may be used in compiling a complete air
quality data base.]
C. Meteorology
1. The contractor shall collect meteorological data for the area of
interest for the purpose of applying dispersion models, for identifying
the frequency and duration of meteorological conditions affecting short
term high concentration levels, and for estimating emissions from space
heating.
2. For the purpose of accurately calibrating models, the contrac-
tor shall ensure that when possible the meteorological data used are for
the same baseline year as for the emission inventory and air quality data.
3. The contractor shall use data from the National Climatic Center
(NCC) in Asheville, N.C. for wind speed, wind direction and atmospheric
stability, temperature and pressure, cloud cover, ceiling height, and
degree days, unless it is clearly inappropriate or more reliable data
collected by State and local air pollution control agencies, meteoro-
logical data centers, airports, or local weather stations are available.
[Other sources of data are:
a. AP-101 "Mixing Heights, Wind Speeds and Potential for Urban
20
Air Pollution Throughout the Continguous United States."
-------
b. Maintenance Guideline Volume 10 "Reviewing New Stationary
Sources."9
21
c. The "Workbook of Atmospheric Dispersion Estimates."
d. A list of the meteorological inputs required for the various
?2
dispersion models is given in Volume 12 . [The Air Quality Work-
shop Volume I - Manual also discusses, on pages 30-36, meteoro-
logical data needed to establish a complete data base.]
IV. EMISSION PROJECTIONS
1. For the purpose of estimating emissions in future years,
unless otherwise specified by the Project Officer, the contractor
shall use the most detailed and accurate procedures (Level 3 in Volume
7,2 and Order 3 in Volume 1323) in accordance with 40 CFR 51.44, 51.45 and
51.49. The contractor shall estimate future activity levels, assuming
most probable growth, and project baseline emissions for at least 20 years,
or if specified by the Project Officer, for lesser periods to conform to
the requirements of 40 CFR 51.51.
2. The contractor shall identify sources of growth projections, as
well as the parameters used in projections, in accordance with 40 CFR
51.47.
3. The contractor shall demonstrate that emission projections are
consistent with activity levels used by agencies responsible for planning
under the following programs, as specified in 40 CFR 51.58:
a. The Federal Highway Administration (FWHA) Act of 1962 (as
amended) and the Urban Mass Transportation Act of 1964 (as
amended).
-------
b. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Section
701 Comprehensive Plans.
c. State Plans for meeting requirements of Section 208 of the
Water Pollution Control Act amendments of 1972.
d. State plans for meeting requirements of the Coastal Zone
Management (CZM) Act of 1972 (as amended in 1976).
e. Regional, State and local planning projections affecting the
area under study.
4. The contractor shall examine the projection variables of the
above programs for consistency with the projected growth of emissions
and report any conflicts to the Project Officer with recommended solu-
ti ons.
5. The contractor shall submit summaries of emissions projections
for the tenth year following the date of the Administrator's identifica-
tion of the area, for at least one Intermediate year, and for the end of
the analysis period 1n accordance with the requirements and format given
in 40 CFR 51.51.
6. With the approval of the Project Officer, OBERS24 growth
projections may be used wherever local growth data are not available.
7. In projecting emissions, the contractor shall consider any
plans for fuel switching under the Energy Supply and Environmental
Coordination Act of 1974 (ESECA),25 and recommend fuel switching, where
possible.
8
-------
8. For projection of emissions, the contractor shall coordinate
with appropriate State and local air pollution control and planning
agencies to obtain and project expected growth patterns for 20 years,
or a period of time compatible with the plans of other agencies in the
same area, as agreed to by the Project Officer.
9. Traffic data for modeling HC, CO, and NOV emissions shall be
A
obtained from the State Departments of Transportation, the State High-
way Administration or other appropriate organization.
10. The contractor shall consult with the Project Officer and
State and local agencies as to the programs which must be accounted
for in projecting emissions, including, but not limited to, the following:
a) The Employer Carpool Incentive program.
b) Traffic flow improvement programs.
c) Mandatory inspection/maintenance programs (using procedures and
factors given in Appendix D of AP-42 ).
d) New Source Performance Standards.
e) The Federal Motor Vehicle Control Program.
f) Vapor recovery control programs.
g) VMT trend data (including that required by EPA to be collected
in TCP areas).
[Information on projection techniques is given in references 5 and 26.]
-------
V. EMISSION ALLOCATIONS
1. The contractor, for the base year and for all projection years,
shall allocate projected emissions for all categories of emission
sources given in the errission inventory above, in conformance with 40
CFP. 51.45, 51.49, and 51.51, as directed by the Project Officer. The
27 2"?
contractor shall apply the procedures detailed in Volumes 8 , 13 and
2P
the supplement to Volume 13 to the extent that they are appropriate and
within the resources available, as determined in consultation with the
Project Officer.
2. The contractor shall develop and submit a master grid and map of
23
emissions for each pollutant using Volume 13 (pages 133-139) as speci-
fied in Section 51.51(b). Grid sizes shall be 1km minimum as recommended
in Volume 13. Generally the maximum grid size should be 8km for urban areas,
but may be larger for rural areas.
3. The master grid system used shall be suitable for input to any
point and area source dispersion models to be used in relating emissions
and air quality.
4. All distribution functions used in the emission allocation pro-
cedures shall be clearly identified.
5. The contractor shall summarize emissions allocations for the
tenth year following the Administrator's identification of the area, for
the intermediate year chosen in IV(5) above for projected emissions, and
for the end of the applicable analysis period, to conform to the require-
ment and format given in 40 CFR 51.51.
VI. MODELING
1. The contractor shall employ the models and procedures given in
Volume 12 as specified in 40 CFR 51.46.
10
-------
2. The contractor shall present projected ambient air quality
concentrations in tabulations and isopleth maps with a narrative
interpretation for each pollutant for the target years under study con-
sistent with the requirements of 40 CFR 51.51.
??
3. Models other than those listed in Volume 12 may be used if
they are shown to be appropriate and approval is obtained from the
Project Officer.
4. Multi-source models shall be validated and calibrated by the
contractor if sufficient data, such as the latest full year of air
quality data from SAROAD, or suitable data from State and local air
pollution control agencies, are available. The Project Officer will
specify the method to be used for calibration. Once a model is cali-
brated, each application of the model thereafter must make use of a
data base similar to that on which the calibration was based.
5. For those pollutants modeled with AQDN, a source-receptor file
(culpability list) as shown on pages 130 and 133 of the Workshop Manual
shall be developed as directed by the Project Officer who will specify
the configuration of the matrix.
6. Both short term and annual concentrations shall be estimated
for the projection years. Maximum short term concentrations shall be
determined both from major isolated point sources and major aggregations
of point sources.
7. In predicting future air quality, the contractor shall use
meteorological data in the models which are representative of historical
conditions, considering worst, average and latest years' data in
11
-------
consultation with the Project Officer. The contractor shall use data
which represent the same meteorological conditions in the projection
years as in the baseline year.
8. Normally, emission rates used in the models shall assume maximum
production capacity and compliance with regulations. In the case of known
problem sources, expected rates may be used with adequate justification.
9. HC reductions shall generally be assumed to be proportional to
VMT reductions, modified as necessary to reflect local conditions, e.g.,
characteristics of the meteorology, traffic and vehicle age distribution.
22
10. Only models described in Volume 12 as being appropriate to
relate HC emissions to Ox concentrations shall be used, except that
relationships based on local data shall be used where available, with
the approval of the Project Officer.
11. As new guidance becomes available, the contractor shall
employ 1t at the direction of the Project Officer. Upon approval of
the Project Officer, the contractor shall make any necessary adjust-
ments to the model or to the data base in order to accomodate any pecu-
liar situations, such as exceptionally adverse meteorological or topo-
graphical conditions in the area under study.
VII. ANALYSIS OF MODELING RESULTS
1. The contractor shall conduct an analysis of the modeling
results 1n accordance with 40 CFR 51.50.
2. In accounting for factors which affect the accuracy of projected
concentrations the contractor shall consider, as specified by the Pro-
ject Officer, the following:
12
-------
a) The degree of completion of abatement activities for which
regulations currently exist;
b) Current air quality concentrations, the magnitude of past
year-to-year variations in air quality concentrations, and the
degree to which the national standard is currently being violated;
c) The future date when currently applicable measures will no
longer be able to ensure maintenance of national standards;
d) The stringency and comprehensiveness of existing regulations;
e) The adequacy of the existing emission inventory;
f) The adequacy of the current air quality surveillance pro-
cedures and enforcement activities;
g) The adequacy of the current new source review procedures;
h) The degree of confidence in the projected demographic and
economic data that was used to project emissions;
1) The degree of confidence in the methods used to project
emissions, allocate projected emissions and determine the air quality
concentrations resulting from the projected emissions;
j) Local and regional meteorological and topographical condi-
tions ;
k) The frequency and severity of air pollution episodes since
the adoption of the existing implementation plan;
1) Progress made in reducing pollutant concentrations in the
last three years;
13
-------
m) The adequacy of the manpower and financial resources that the
State will obtain to implement current and future regulations and
the growth of the control program since the adoption of the existing
plan.
3. The analysis of modeling results shall, at the option of the
project officer, also include the following:
a) Relationship of calculated concentrations to both primary and
secondary standards, as well as year to year variations in measured
air quality and frequency of air pollution episodes to determine the
magnitude of the air quality problem.
b) Geographical extent of the problem, to distinguish widespread
problems from those of a local nature and presence of "hot spots" to
determine the need for special application of strategies.
c) Boundary problems, to determine if violations inside the
study area are causing air quality problems outside the area, or vice
versa. In interstate areas, the compatibility of each State's strategy
shall be considered.
d) The variation of the problem with time, whether it is both
an attainment and maintenance problem or either one alone in order
that suitable strategies can be chosen.
4. When models with a source-receptor file are used, the contrac-
tor shall present a summary of the emission reductions needed to meet
the standards at each receptor and a tabulation of the percent of total
concentration contributed by each source. [As illustrated on pages 156
and 157 of the Air Quality Analysis Workshop Manual, Volume I. ]
14
-------
5. If the modeling results indicate that there is no need for
an AQKP or other SIP revision, the contractor shall make an analysis of
all work performed, document it in a form suitable for review and
recording, and present a final report in which such conclusions are
fully supported.
VIII. STRATEGY SELECTION, TESTING AND EVALUATION
1. The contractor shall discuss available strategies with the
Project Officer, develop a priority list of strategies and select
those which may be applicable to the problems in the study area,
including use of all achievable technological controls, existing
source retrofit, fugitive dust controls, increased enforcement, and
land use planning measures. Consideration shall be given, but not limited
to the following, as appropriate:
a) Emission density zoning, a regulatory system in which the
maximum legal rate of emissions of air pollutants from any given land
area is limited by the size of the area and its zoning classification.
b) Emission allocations, a regulatory system in which the maxi-
mum legal rate of emissions of air pollutants from any given political
jurisdiction or other area is assigned by an allocation procedure,
and suitable sanctions, such as a construction ban, are imposed if an
area uses up its allocation.
c) Transportation controls, including encouragement of mass
transit, and measures discussed in the November 6, 1973 Preamble to
State Implementation Plan Transportation Controls (38 FR 30626).
15
-------
d) A methodology for controlling proposed new or modified buildings,
structures, facilities, or installations, including municipal waste
water treatment facilities, that induce or otherwise permit the develop-
ment of other land uses and vehicular traffic that emit air pollutants
for which there are national standards.
e) Fuel and energy conservation measures.
f) Regulatory and other types of measures to limit and guide the
development of area, point, and line sources, including measures such
as zoning and subdivision regulations, sewer and water connection bans,
rezoning and building moratoria, capital improvement programming, and
open space reservations.
g) Revision of local or regional development plans, and legal
mechanisms to prevent any development not in accordance with the plans.
h) More restrictive emission controls and new source performance
standards.
1) Progressive phase-out of central power plants and their replace-
ment by remote plants wherever the change would not significant de-
grade air quality in the remote areas.
j) Greater use of district heating.
k) Fuel conversion such as coal gasification.
1) Phase-out of all on-site refuse incinerators.
m) Phase-out of inefficient oil burners.
n) Application of emission charges.
o) Tighter control over construction activities, including grading
and burning.
16
-------
p) Regulations affecting the timing or spatial location of emissions.
q) Specification of special operating conditions.
2. After it has been determined which measures and strategies
are technically adequate, the contractor shall screen them using criteria
which include the scope of the problem, availability and accuracy of data,
social, institutional, and resource constraints and economic considerations.
3. For those strategies which have been selected, projected emissions
shall be modeled and resulting concentrations compared to the standards.
If air quality projections indicate that NAAQS will not be attained and
maintained with these strategies, the contractor shall simulate the effect
of additional control measures, designated by the Project Officer, on
emissions. The contractor shall perform additional modeling runs to deter-
mine the effect of these measures. The contractor shall negotiate any
additional costs with the Contracts Office before performing additional
modeling.
A. Those strategies which are found to meet attainment/maintenance
requirements of the study area will then be analyzed to determine which
are the most suitable based on an evaluation of their social, institutional,
economic and energy impacts, and public acceptability. Weights shall be
assigned to each of the strategies, in consultation with Regional Office,
State and local officials, and the strategy sets shall then be ranked 1n
order. The weighting and ranking of the strategies shall be performed by
one or more of the following procedures, unless otherwise specified by the
Project Officer:
17
-------
00
a. The Delphi panel, described in Volume 5, page 25, and in the
29
Sample Maintenance Plan for San Diego, pages 81-96.
b. The Residual Environmental Quality Management (REQM) system
described in Volume 5, page 104, and in the Trial Maintenance Plan for
Baltimore30, pages 117-148.
31 ?2
c. The Klee decision model described in Appendix B of Volume 2.
5. The contractor shall determine if the recommended strategies are
compatible with the plans of all concerned State and local agencies, in-
cluding those agencies listed in 40 CFR 51.58(b). The contractor shall
obtain (or review) such plans (including those of agencies listed in 40
CFR 51.58(b)), and recommend any changes in the air strategies necessary
for compatibility. The contractor, after consultation with the Project
Officer, shall also recommend to the other non-air agencies involved
(including those listed in 40 CFR 51.58(b)) any changes needed in their
plans in order to ensure attainment and maintenance of the NAAQS.
6. The contractor shall discuss any strategy changes with the Project
Officer and State and local agencies, and if any significant changes are
made the contractor shall retest the strategies, through modeling, to
ensure attainment and maintenance of the NAAQS. The contractor shall
negotiate any additional costs with the Contracts Office before per-
forming these tasks.
7. Those strategies which appear most feasible for implementation,
based on the analysis made in VIII 2, 3, 4 and 5 above, shall be identified
for use in the SIP revision, with a brief discussion of reasons why
these strategies are preferred.
18
-------
IX. PREPARATION OF Sit REVISIONS
A. After the preferred strategies have been selected, evaluated, and
approved by the Project Officer, the contractor shall develop the SIP
