                        1.0  INTRODUCTION

     Air pollutant emission inventories have been made for
every major metropolitan region in the United States pursuant to
submittal of State Implementation Plans under the Clean Air Act.
Additional emission inventories are undertaken to implement the
control efforts of various state, regional, and local agencies
and to provide a base for research and development of air pollu-
tion control technology.
     This report describes a Source Inventory and Emission Factor
Analysis (SIEFA), a program designed to determine the precision
of emission inventories.  Through application of the SIEFA pro-
gram, users of the data generated in an emission inventory will
have at hand not only the values derived from emission calcula-
tions but a definition of their quality; that is, a statement of
the statistical precision of each value and the precision of the
overall emission inventory.  Throughout this report these words
have the following meaning:
     Precision - A measure of variability, due to unknown factors
                 which affect a measurement made on similar
                 elements from a population.  This variability

The precision values generated herein are not actually "true"
precision, but rather the best estimate of precision that could
be obtained.
     The SIEFA program is based on and is compatible with the
National Emissions Data System  (NEDS) of the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency  (EPA).  As the national repository of air pol-
lution-related data, NEDS provides the format for virtually all sub-
stantive emissions inventories performed by agencies, groups, and
individuals nationwide.  NEDS computer programs and coding forms,
together with the EPA "Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission
Factors"(AP-42), are the basic tools of an emission inventory.
SIEFA is able to accomodate changes to the program, such as a
change in an emission factor or an additional Source Classification
Code (SCC).  For specific instructions regarding changes, refer to
the SIEFA Users Manual.
     In formulating the SIEFA program, PEDCo has calculated or
estimated a precision value for each individual emission factor
used in the NEDS.  In this report we show how each precision
value was derived and document the basis for each assumption or
estimate involved.  Where an emissions value is based on several
parameters, such as control device efficiency, process thruput,
or sulfur/ash content of fuels, a statistical or engineering
analysis is applied to determine the precision of each parameter.
By statistical scrutiny of each component of input, the SIEFA
program thus indicates the level of confidence that can be assigned
                                  1-2

to an emission inventory.  The output from SIEFA presents
precision in terms of the standard deviation (S) of the
estimated emissions.  For computational purposes it is
necessary to use the variance (i.e., Var (E) = S ).  The
variance of an emission value is calculated by the equation:
                  I"   9      2           2l
                  I PI + P2* +  ••• + Pn  I
     Var(E) -
     where E = emissions in tons/yr.
           P., P-, etc. = Precision of the various factors used
to calculate E.
     Precision is defined as follows:
    where
           S: - standard deviation
           Xv " arithmetic mean
The variance of the total emissions in any source category is the
sum of the variances of the individual emissions.  The measure
of error or precision associated with an emission value is stated
in terms of standard deviation.  Standard deviation is the square
root of variance.  A flow chart  (Figure 1.1) outlines the basic
steps followed by the SIEFA program in calculating the precision
of an emission inventory.
     SIEFA provides an indication of both precision and accuracy
of emission values, but in different ways.  The output format gives
precision values quantitatively, as standard deviations.  Similar
quantitative values for accuracy cannot be determined, however,
since any known methods of finding a 'true1 emissions value are
                                 1-3

either impractical or are themselves subject to error, or both.
Efforts in the direction of finding 'true1 emissions values, such
as auditing of company records or supervision of source testing,
are beyond the scope of the SIEFA program.
     With respect to the accuracy of emission factors, it is widely
recognized that some are based on very meager data and in fact
could not be representative of all sources in a category to which
they are applied.  In efforts to maintain the best possible array
of working data, EPA updates the AP-42 emission factors whenever
new information obtained in source testing or by some other reliable
method provides a basis for revision.   In addition, SIEFA increases
the accuracy of emissions reporting by providing approximated values
where elements of data are missing.  Since the SIEFA output clearly
shows how many values are thus approximated, it provides the user
with an index to the relative accuracy of the values.  Methods
of determining and applying the approximated values are discussed
in Section 4.
     This report is presented in three major parts:  Section 2
develops precision values for data on emissions from point sources;
Section 3 deals with emissions from area sources; and Section 4
presents a system for computerizing the quality analysis of
emissions data.

        2.0  PRECISION OF POINT SOURCE EMISSIONS DATA

     In the EPA procedure for preparing emissions inventories,
emissions from point sources are calculated from data recorded
on the NEDS point source coding form (Figure 2.1).  Precision
of the emission estimates is determined by the precision of these
input data.  For point sources the factors used to calculate
emissions are the emission factor, control device efficiency,
thruput, and sulfur or ash content of fuels.  Code numbers that
indicate the method used to estimate the emission factor are
entered, by pollutant, on card 4, columns 66 through 70, of the
point source form.  Values for control efficiency are entered
on card 3, columns 53 through 67; for thruput (annual operating
rate), on card 6, columns 26 through 32; and for sulfur and ash
content, on card 6, columns 40 through 45.
     In the following sections we analyze the methods by which
these values are derived and develop a precision value to charac-
terize each entry.  These precision values then are entered into
the SIEFA program for use in evaluating the precision of source
inventories and emission data to meet the needs of the requestor.
2.1  PRECISION OF EMISSION FACTORS
     Card 4 of the NEDS point source form indicates the method
used in estimating emission factors.  Codes are provided for

     All five estimation methods are considered as providing

emission factors.  Source test data and material balances are

given in pounds per hour (Ib/hr) or pounds per ton (Ib/ton);

these rates are essentially emission factors.  Methods 3 and 5

entail use of values that are emission factors by definition.

Values determined by guess, Method 4, are often based on

emission factors determined for similar processes.

     Precision values for emission factors determined by each

of these methods are calculated in the following sections.  The

results provide a precision value for each emission factor by

SCC; values are given in Tables G-l through G-5 of Appendix G.

2.1.1  Precision of Emission Factors Determined by Method 1

     In effect, the number obtained in a source test is an

emission factor for that specific source.  PEDCo therefore studied

the source test data on file with EPA Emissions Measurements

Branch to determine the precision of these data.  This was done
                                 2-3

-------
by calculating the standard deviation of each test series for
various processes and pollutants.  These calculations indicated
that precision
of the values obtained in source tests appears
to depend on the pollutant.
     We therefore selected at random 20 test series for each
pollutant and calculated an average precision for each pollutant.
Data obtained from the Emissions Measurements Branch were supple-'
mented by test data from PEDCo files to complete a 20-test series
for each pollutant.  Results of the calculations are shown below.

Calculations of these values are shown in Appendix D.
2.1.2  Precision of Emission Factors Determined by Method  2
     In Method 2 emissions are calculated by a material balance.
A material balance can be made for some processes that emit particu-
late, SO-, or HC.  A material balance cannot be made  for any
process emitting NO  or CO.  Material balances were classified
as involving either a chemical process  (i.e. oxidation of  sulfur
contained in fuel) or a product loss  (i.e. determined by amount
of catalyst purchased for makeup for FCC units).  The precision

2.1.2.1  Material Balance for SO., Emissions - The pollutant for
which the majority of sources are amendable to material balance
is SO-.  All of the S02 material balances are for oxidation of
sulfur contained in fuel.  For some sources an AP-42 emission
factor was also available; in these cases the material balance
was assigned the same precision value that is assigned to the
emission factor, since the AP-42 emission factor incorporates
the percent conversion from sulfur to SO-.  For the processes
that are not assigned an AP-42 emission factor, an engineering
analysis was performed to determine the precision of the material
balances, as described in the following paragraphs.
     Lignite boilers - Lignite contains sulfur in the form of
pyrite and organic sulfur compounds, such as mercaptors.  Pyrite
sulfur content ranges from 30 to 80 percent.  Organic sulfides
are easily oxidized, whereas the pyrites are more difficult to
oxidize.  The high moisture content (30 to 60%)  of some
sulfur compounds also hinders oxidation.  Some of the sulfur
is converted to calcium sulfate, but most is oxidized to SO-
or SO-.  Sodium oxide content of the lignite also has a profound
effect on SO  emissions.  Low-sodium lignite emits almost all
                                 2-5

-------
 (90% or greater) of the sulfur as SOX, whereas high-sodium
lignite emits only half the sulfur as S0x>  It is, therefore,
very difficult to generalize a percentage conversion of sulfur
in lignite to sulfur oxide.  Under good combustion conditions
 (i.e. the lignite is pulverized), yields of 90 to 98 percent
SOX are expected; under poor conditions (the lignite is moist,
has high sodium content, occurs in large lumps), the SO  yields
can be as low as 50 percent.  Most lignite boilers incorporate
a pulverization system and/or a moisture-reducing process.  Conver-
sion is estimated to be around 90 percent, with a possible range
of 50 to 98 percent.  Assuming at least five observations:

      Precision of conversion estimate  =  -  QQ%  =  + 0.102

     The sulfur content of lignite may range between 0.3 and 2.3
percent by weight.  ASTM Designation: D271-48  specifies the
precision of determination of sulfur content to be within the
following limits:
                    % S  < 2.0       error  =  0.1
                    % S  > 2.0       error  =  0.2
                                 2-6

-------
Therefore the precisions are:



                    0 <  % S  < 2.0       p  =





                    2.0 <  % S            p  =





     Process gas boilers - Several types of processes produce



a gas with sufficient heating value to be utilized in a boiler.



Process gases include refinery gas, coke oven gas, etc.  Most



of the sulfur in these gases appears as H_S, with some thiols



present also.  The compounds oxidize readily and should show



approximately 98 percent conversion to SO  compounds.  Assuming
                                         A


that the majority of process gas boilers operate under good combus-



tion conditions, the standard error should be no more than + 5



absolute percent.  Thus, the precision of the conversion value



will be 5/98 = + 0.051.



     The sulfur content of process gas may vary from 0 to 300



grains per 100 cubic feet.  ASTM Designation: D1072-56 specifies



an absolute precision of + 0.1 grain per 100 cubic feet for deter-



mining the sulfur content of manufactured gases.  Assuming an



average molecular weight of the gas to be 30, an error of 0.1


                                                    —4
grain per 100 cubic feet is equivalent to + 1.7 x 10   percent
of sulfur by weight.  Therefore, the precision of the sulfur

                                —4

content values equals +  ' %*	.




     Coke boilers - Little of the sulfur present in coking coals



is removed through the coke oven gas.  The remaining sulfur is



usually of pyritic form and averages 1 percent by weiaht.  In



the combustion of coke, high temperatures are maintained and
                                 2-7

-------
around 90 percent conversion of sulfur to SOX compounds is expected,
Based on six observations cited in Reference 3, a precision may
be calculated.

mination of the sulfur content of coke as + 0.05 absolute percent.
The precision is then +  _•••-  .

     Boilers fueled by solid waste and coal - Some boilers are
fueled by refuse mixed with coal.  The sulfur content of the
coal is easily determined, but that of the refuse depends on
the type of refuse burned.  If the refuse is garbage, the sulfur
                     A
content is negligible  and the sulfur content of the coal determines
SO  emissions.  Assume that such is the case.  For most types
of coal boilers, the mean conversion is 95 percent.  On the basis
of data for boilers burning wet, pulverized fuel  (from Reference
3) and the method used in calculations for coke boilers, the
precision is + 0.118.
     ASTH Designation: D271-48  specifies the following permissible

Sulfur content of United States coals range from 0.5 percent
to 4.9 percent.  Since solid waste/coal boilers are usually employed
in power plants that burn coals having relatively high sulfur
content, the precision is:
                  0 <  % S  < 2.0          0.1/% S
                  2.0 <  % S               0.2/% S
     Open burning of jet fuel - Open burning is not as efficient
as combustion in a jet engine.  Expected conversion is less,
probably in the range of 70 to 90 percent.

     The sulfur content would be as precise for engine testing.
The precision equals  ^ s  for 0 < % S < 0.5.
     Flare stacks - Analysis of determinations by material balance
of emissions from flares indicated a high conversion from sulfur
to SO-.  The maximum percent sulfur content that can be entered
on the NEDS point source form is 9.99 percent.  The sulfur content
of flow to many petroleum flares, however, is much higher than
                                 2-9

-------
this value.  Therefore, sulfur contents above 9.99 percent remain
unreported on the NEDS forms  (for purposes of computer calcula-
tions) .  The ASME Power Test Codes do not give a precision value
for determination of sulfur in refinery gas.  Since both the
flow to the flare and the sulfur content vary greatly during
the year, sulfur content of the flare gas as reported by the
refinery is not regarded as very precise.  Because a material
balance cannot be calculated from data on the NEDS form, it is
assumed that the precision of a material balance for SO, emissions
from flares is equal to the precision of the least precise emission
factor in that category.
     The precisions assigned to material balances for coal boilers
that are not given an AP-42 emission factor are determined by
Method 4 (guess), since the precision of a guess is equal to
the precision of the least precise emission factor in a particular
category.  The precision assigned to material balances for pro-
cesses designated by NEDS as "other/not classified" are also
the precisions of a guess.
2.1.2.2  Material Balance for Particulate Emissions- Particulate
emissions could be determined by material balance for three pro-
cesses:  sand handling operations in iron production, and FCC
or TCC catalytic cracker operations.
     The material balance for sand handling operations involves
the amount of make-up sand purchased to replace sand lost to
the atmosphere.  The amount of make-up sand purchased, however,
is not normally reported to a high degree of precision.  Preci-
                                 2-10

-------
sions would be in the range of 50 + 10, 25 + 5, or 10 + 2, giving
a precision value of + 0.200.
     Material balances for particulate emissions from the catalytic
crackers were based on the amount of catalyst purchased to make
up losses of catalyst to the atmosphere.  Some of the TCC catalyst
losses, hGwever, are due to discarding pellets that have been
broken up but were not expelled to the atmosphere.  Further,
the thruput value entered on the NEDS forms is in thousands of
barrels of fresh feed through the crackers, a value not related
to the amount of catalyst purchased or lost.  Therefore, since
the thruput data in the computer is not compatible with catalyst
make-up, the precision assigned to the material balance method
is the same as that assigned to the AP-42 emission factor.
2.1.2.3  Material Balance for HC Emissions - The processes for
which HC emissions could be determined by material balance are
dry cleaning, degreasing, surface coating, and printing.  These
processes all involve product losses, and precision is related
to the thruput.
     HC emissions from dry cleaning are considered equal to the
amount of solvent purchased, since the solvent is reused, and
all losses of solvent are considered due to evaporation.  On
the NEDS form, however, emissions from dry cleaning are reported
as tons of clothes cleaned; since these units do not reflect
the amount of solvent purchased, the precision assigned to the
material balance method is the same as the precision of the envis-
ion factor.
                                 2-11

-------
     Degreasing emissions also equal the amount of solvent purchased,
since the solvent is reused and the only losses are due to evapora-
tion.  The units on the NEDS form for degreasing are tons of
solvent used, which can be interpreted as tons of solvent purchased
each year.  Since the amount purchased equals the evaporation
losses, precision of the material balance is based entirely on
thruput, for which precision values are calculated separately
(Section 2.3) .  The precision of the material balance estimate
for degreasing, therefore, is zero.
     Material balance calculations of HC emissions from surface
coating include the HC content of the coating material.  The
precisions of the AP-42 emission factors are essentially the
precision of determining the solvent content of the coating
materials.  Therefore, the precision of material balance estimates
for surface coating is equal to the precision of the AP-42 emis-
sion factor.  Since AP-42 gives no emission factor for surface
coating operations designated as "other/not classified", values
for these operations are assigned the precision value of the
least precise emission factor in the category.
     Emissions from printing can be calculated by material balance
because, as in degreasing, the solvent is recovered and reused
and the amount of solvent purchased is used to make up the amount
lost by evaporation.  The NEDS units for printing emissions are
tons of solvent so the amount of solvent purchased is entered
on the form.  The only imprecision is in the thruput, and the
material balance method itself is considered precise.  Therefore,
the precision of the material balance estimate for printing
                                 2-12

-------
operations is zero.



2.1.3  Precision of Emission Factors Determined by Method 3



     Method 3 entails use of the emission factors given in EPA's



"Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors," Publication



No. AP-42.  (Research Triangle Park, N.C., 2nd Edition, April



1973).  These emission factors are referred to as AP-42 factors.



     Because of the large number of emission factors used in



NEDS, priorities were assigned to those processes and pollutants



that account for the major portion of total emissions.  These



priority groupings, developed by EPA, are shown in Table 2.1.



Because it is not practical for the system to consider only prior-



ity process/pollutants in determining precision of an overall emis-



sion inventory, an average precision for AP-42 emission factors



was calculated by standard statistical methods.



     The statistical analyses were based on the AP-42 factors



and the observed values, as reported in references given in AP-



42, on which the factors are based.  Analysis of the references



showed that the observed values are not reported consistently.



Three basic inconsistencies appear:  (1) the observed value was



a controlled emission, i.e., a value measured or estimated down-



stream from an air pollutant control device, (2) the observed



value was reported as negligible, and (3) the observed value



was reported as a range.  To account for these inconsistencies,



the following rules were developed:



  0 A value reported for a controlled emission is not used



    in the statistical analysis, since efficiency of the



    control device is unknown.

  •  A value reported as negligible is not used in the sta-



    tistical analysis since it cannot be equated to a value



    of zero.



  •  A value reported as a range is considered as one obser-



    vation whose value is the mean.  If no other observations



    are reported in the references, the range is considered



    as two observations (maximum and minimum) in calculating



    a standard deviation (S) and coefficient of variation



    (C.V.).



    In calculating the standard deviation of an emission factor,



one must consider that the emission factor (EF) is not always



the mean (X) of the observed values.  While we are not certain



which data were used in developing an emission factor, it is



a reasonable assumption that the coefficient of variation of



the emission factor  (C.V.f) is approximately equal to the coeffi-



cient of variation of the mean of the observations  (C.V.-).  Thus:
                                                        A



         C.V.5  =  SX  =  C.V.,  =  Sf         (eq. 1)
             A       "         I     —.

                    X               EF



Upon calculating Sr: then, Sf is found thus:




          Sf  =  EF x C.V.s                      (eq. 2)
           £              41




The precision of the emission factor depends not only on the



standard deviation but also on the number of observations upon



which the standard deviation is based.  In other words, the con-



fidence level for an emission factor derived from 15 observations



is greater than that for a number derived from 2 observations.



The statistical expression for the variability of the emission
                                 2-16

-------
           c
factor is -*~, which is also known as the standard error of  the
         V"
mean, or the standard error of the emission factor  (E).   Since
emission factors are expressed in various units, E must be  con-
verted to a dimensionless number.  This number is known as  the
precision (P) where:
    P  -  |p                                     (eq.  3)

     In some instances the SCC used in the NEDS  includes
more than one emission point, and emission values are
the summation of emissions calculated from more  than  one
emission factor.  The standard deviation of the  combined
emission factor  (EFgmn) is expressed as follows:
          S—  it* * _i_ e? ^ !-*•/ *"                     /n*»   A \
     _„_  =  (S,  + S,  1                        (eq.  4)
     sum     \ i     2 _/
    Where S, and S_ are the standard deviations of each of  the
    separate emission factors.
    Likewise, where the emission factor is expressed as a range,
an average standard deviation  (S=.) must be estimated thus:
                                avg
           1/2 (S,2 + S,2)1/2                    (eg.  5)
s    - i/i 
-------
    For 2 to 12 observations, the standard deviation is determined
from the following equation:

    SX * (xmax - Xmin)/d2
    where x    is the highest observation
          x .   is the lowest observation
          d« is an adjustment factor used to estimate the
          standard deviation of a universe and is given,.
          for each corresponding n for n = 1 to n = 12.
    For more than 12 observations, a normal distribution equation
is used:
    S-
    S
     X       n (n - 1)
2.1.3.2  Standard Deviation of AP-42 Emission Factors Based on
Less Than Two Observations - Some AP-42 factors are based on
only one observation; for others, not even one observation could
be found in the references.  In these cases the standard deviation
can best be estimated by assuming that C.V.'s for all AP-42 factors
tend to average,  and that the emission factor is the mean of
any observations that could have been made.  The standard devia-
tion then may be expressed thus :
    Sf = C.V.    x EF                           (eq. 8)
    C.V.    is determined by taking the average C.V. of all AP-
42 factors based on five or more observations .  These values are
shown in Tables 2.2 through 2.6.  Before the C.V.'s were aver-
aged, selected values were discarded as nonrepresentative.
For example, if the mean of the observations was outside the EF +
50% range, the resultant C.V. was not used.  Also we rejected
                                 2-18

Calculation of Precision of Each AP-42 Emission Factor
Having determined the standard deviation, and knowing the number
of observations upon which the AP-42 factor is based, we calculated
a precision value for each priority emission factor by use of
eq. 3.  These precision values are shown in Tables 2.7 through
2.11.
     Precision values for nonpriority emission factors were
not calculated as a part of this study.  In order to estimate
precision of an overall emission inventory, then, we calculated
and applied the average precision of all priority emission factors.
These calculations are shown in Table 2.12 through 2.16.  The
average precisions of AP-42 emission factors as shown below by
pollutant:

2.1.4  Precision of Emission Factors Determined by Method 4
     Although it is not possible to calculate the precision of
a guess, it is reasonable to estimate such precision.  For example,
given a specific process category, a guess cannot be any more
precise than the most precise AP-42 factor within that category.
As a practical matter, one cannot assume that a guess will be
more precise than the least precise emission factor for the given
category — it may even be less precise.  Since the exact precision
cannot be determined, the unit emission factors used in calcu-
lating emissions by Method 4 were estimated to be as precise
as the least precise AP-42 factor within that category.
2.1.5  Precision of Emission Factors Determined by Method 5
     There is no basis for stating that an emission factor developed
by, for example, a state air pollution control agency is any
more precise than the corresponding AP-42 factor.  Therefore
an emission factor developed by a state or other agency is estimated
to be as precise as the corresponding AP-42 factor.  Where no
AP-42 factor is given, but the process emits the pollutant in
question, precision of the emission factor is estimated to be
the same as that of a factor determined by guess  (Method 4).
2.2  PRECISION OF CONTROL DEVICE EFFICIENCY VALUES
     The precision of any value given for control device efficiency
depends on how the number was derived by personnel completing
the NEDS form.  Methods for determining this three-digit number
include the following:
     a) Stack measurements before and after a control device.
     b) Use of manufacturer's data.
                                 2-41

-------
     c) Use of graphs for specific control devices relating
        efficiency to unit size, pressure drop, power
        requirements, and other parameters.

     d) Estimation or guess.

     Since there is no way of telling which of these methods

led to the value entered on the NEDS data sheet, one must take

a conservative approach in determining precision of values for

control device efficiency.

     The following guidelines were established:

     1)  All numbers not ending in .5 or .0, such as 92.3
         or 76.6, have a precision of + 0.1.

     2)  Numbers ending in .5, such as 75.5, have a preci-
         sion of + 0.3.

     3)  Numbers ending in .0 but not 0.0 or 5.0, such as
         58.0, have a precision of + 0.5.

     4)  Numbers less than 80 ending in 5.0, such as 55.0,
         have a precision of + 5.0.

     5)  The numbers 85.0 and 95.0 have a precision of
         + 2.5.

     6)  Numbers ending in 0.0, such as 50.0 or 90.0,
         have a precision of + 5.0.


     Statement 1) assumes that any number in this category
     must be fairly precise since it contains three signifi-
     cant figures.  A properly conducted emission test yields
     values that are precise to the third significant figure.

     Statement 2) considers values ending in 0.5, which can
     possibly be accurate to three significant figures, but
     also can be the average of two numbers  (such as 84 and
     89).  A precision factor of + 0.3 represents a conserva-
     tive approach.

     Statement 3) suggests that these numbers, usually from
     control system manufacturer's literature, are precise
     to the nearest unit, or + 0.5.

     Statement 4) and 6) assume conservatively that the entry
     may have been a guess or that the literature source  states
     values in increments of 5 or 10.  Therefore these numbers
     are assigned a precision of + 5.0.
                                2-42

-------
     Statement 5) assumes that even though these numbers end
     in 5.0 and may have been determined by guess, entries of
     80.0 or 90.0 would have preceded guesses of 85.0 and 95.0.


2.3  PRECISION OF THRUPUT VALUES

     Instead of determining precision of a thruput value for

each SCC, we assigned one precision to each major SCC category.

Although the major categories include many different types of

processes or fuels, the precisions are applied to the entire

category .

     A literature search was made to determine how specific indus-

tries in the major categories normally report their production

or thruput.  In addition, questionnaires were completed by the

Directors and Executive Committee of the Air Pollution Control

Association.  These questionnaires provided estimates of typical

thruput or production numbers for "average" installations in

the major industries, along with the units and magnitudes in

which the thruput or production is usually reported.  With this

information and engineering judgement, we developed precision

values for thruput in each major SCC category.

     The first major SCC category encompasses generation of elec-

tric power by burning of coal, gas, and oil.  For various thruputs,

X, the following precisions, P, were determined:

                  X > 200,000        P  =  ± 0.001

         10,000 < X < 200,000        P  =
                  X <  10,000        P  -  + 0.001
                                2-43

-------
     Numbers greater than 10,000 in this category represent coal
usage in major power plants; the precisions therefore reflect
the precision of coal thruput values.  The precision of numbers
reported in this range is approximately + 200.  Thruput values
greater than 200,000 have precisions less than 0.001, but the
precision value was rounded to 0.001 since the precisions of
emission factors are given only to three decimal places .  Thruput
values less than 10,000 usually indicate gas and oil usage.
Since the reported thruputs of these fuels are quite precise,
on the order of , v QQQ* a precision of + 0.001 is specified.
                , v
     Another major SCC category is industrial boilers , whose
reported thruputs are assigned the following precision values:
                  X > 200,000         P  =  + 0.001
         50,000 < X < 200,000         P  -  + 5£°-
                —                           ™  A
          1,000 < X <  50,000         P  -  + 0.020
                  X <   1,000         P  =  + 0.001

     Again, the small thruputs are considered precise since they
represent mainly gas, oil and small coal boilers.  The consumption
of gas and oil can be known and reported very precisely.  As
the thruput values increase, coal usage begins to dominate and
the precisions reflect the change.  Thruputs in the range of
                                        500
1,000 to 50,000 have a precision of + 25 Q'Q'O" or 0.020.  Thruputs
in the range of 50,000 to 200,000 are precise within + 500.
For very large thruputs, the values should be known and reported
precisely.  Thruputs in this range are also ± 500; rounding off
                                 2-44

-------
to three decimal places gives a precision of + 0.001.  Two other
major categories, commercial/institutional boilers and in-process
fuel usage, are assigned the same thruput precision values as
industrial boilers.
     The precision of thruput values for all stationary internal
combustion sources is + 0.002.  This value is based on engineering
judgment and consideration that the thruput is likely to be
small, but not necessarily reported to the same precision as
thruput of industrial boilers .  The fuel normally used is gas
or oil and the thruput is reported with a precision of ?^-r or
     t which equals + 0.002.
     The precision of thruputs for all chemical processes is
estimated to be + 0.010.  The category of chemical manufacturing
encompasses a wide variety of types of processes and a large
range of thruputs .  Although the thruput or production in these
industries is likely to be known to a high degree of precision,
many operators are reluctant to divulge precise production figures
because of competition within the industry.  It is assumed, there-
fore, that the precision to which thruput is generally reported
is ....Q0 for small operations, 7QO 'QQQ for medium-sized processes,
and f nmlimii for large operations; these values yield an overall
         f U v U
precision of + 0.010.
     The precision of thruput reported in the food/agricultural
category is estimated to be 0.100.  Again, the category encompasses
a wide variety of types of processes and it is judged that the
thruput values reported for these processes are not as precise
                                2-45

aa those of some other Industries.  Country elevators often report



their thruput with a precision of gnn' nnn bushels and terminal
                                     t UUU

gory.



     Precision of thruputs for metallurgical  (primary and secondary)



processes is specified as follows:




                  X > 500,000         P  =  + 0.001




         50,000 < X < 500,000         P  =  + 522.

                  X <  50,000         P  =  + 0.010





     Precision of thruput values for large metallurgical processes



is judged to be good, and for small installations, not as good.



Thruputs of the magnitude 50,000 to 500,000 are reported within



± 500.  Thruputs larger than 500,000 are still within ± 500,



but the precision for this category is rounded to three decimal



places, or 0.001.  Thruputs less than 50,000  are as precise as



those at 50,000.  That is, thruputs of 25,000 have a precision




of
     The precision of thruputs for mineral product installations



follows a similar trend:



                  X > 1,000,000       P  =  +  0.001




         50,000 < X  <  100,000       P  -  +  1>°°°




         10,000 < X  <    50,000       P  =  i  0.020




                  X  <    10,000       P  *  +  0.050
                                 2-46

-------
     The large installations know and report their thruputs to



a higher degree of precision than do the small ones.  Thruputs



greater than 50,000 are reported + 1,000; precision of thruputs



greater than 1,000,000 are rounded to 0.0001.  Thruputs between



10,000 and 50,000 are generally reported with precisions in the



range of Or .mr» or + 0.020.  Included among the small installa-
         4bD , UUU     —


tions are seasonal rock crackers, for which the accounting of



thruputs is not very precise, usually in the range of 5 OQO or



± 0.050.



     Precision of thruput values for the petroleum industry is



as follows:




                  X > 200,000         P  =  + 0.001




          1,000 < X < 200,000         P  =  +




                  X <   1,000         P  «  + 0.002





     This category includes both refinery operations and process



heaters.  Thruputs less than 1,000 represent the process heaters,



whereas the larger thruputs represent refining operations.  The



larger the refinery capacity, the more precisely the thruput



is reported.  This trend was determined from analysis of informa-



tion presented in National Petroleum News Factbook Issue.  Preci-



sions given for thruputs greater than 1,000 reflect the finding



that the refinery capacities are generally reported + 1,000 barrels



per day.  The precision values take into account conversion from



barrels per day to thousands of barrels per year.  Precisions



of thruput values for the process heaters are all on the order
                                2-47

of 500 or + 0.002.



     Precisions of thruput values for the wood products industries



are:



                  X > 10,000          P  =  + 0.010



                  X < 10,000          p  =  + 0.050




This category includes both paper pulping and sawmill operations.



With a break point of 10,000, a precision of + 0.010 represents



mainly pulping operations and a precision of + 0.050 represents



various sawmill operations.  Thruputs for pulping operations



are generally reported with a precision of g-QQ''pQQ- or ± 0.010.



Thruputs for sawmill operations are generally reported in board-



feet and are then converted to tons for entry on the NEDS form.



This conversion entails some additional imprecision.  The



thruputs entered on the NEDS forms therefore are assigned a



precision of approximately I -.„ or + 0.050.
                           D , UUU    —


     The precision of thruput values for metal fabrication, leather



products, textile manufacturing and "other/not classified" cate-



gories is estimated to be + 0.050.  These are small, diverse,



and relatively low-polluting industries.  It is estimated that



the precision of thruput values reported by any of these industries



would not be better than the precision of the smallest thruput



reported in any of the other major categories.  Therefore, the



precision assigned to these categories is an average of the preci-



sions of the smallest thruputs of the other categories.



     The precision of thruput values for all point source evapora-



tion operations is + 0.010.  This category includes petroleum

storage and surface coating  (i.e., painting) among others.  The
precision of +0.010 is valid of all thruputs in this category.
For small thruputs, the precision is r Q0^; for large thruputs
the precision is         or        oa'  The precision of all
these thruputs is + 0.010.
     The precision of thruput values for all solid waste disposal
operations is estimated as follows:
                  X > 10,000          P  =  + 0.100
          1,000 < X < 10,000          P  =  + 0.200
                  X <  1,000          P  =  + 0.500
Sources disposing of more than 10,000 tons per year usually are
municipal incinerators, whose operations maintain records of
the quantities burned.  The precision of values for the amount
burned is not very good, however, generally about 25*000 or
+ 0.100.  Industrial and commercial incinerators burn less waste,
and operators keep few, if any, records of the amounts burned.
Generally, the less waste incinerated, the less precise the
thruput.  Thruputs for industrial incinerators often range from
1,000 to 10,000, with an approximate precision of + - 'QQQ or
+ 0.200.  Thruputs of smaller units (generally commercial units
or small industrial incinerators) are often estimated when re-
ported for NEDS purposes.  The resulting precision is in the
           OCA
range of + |^- or + 0.500.
     Precisions assigned to thruput values for all categories
are summarized in Table 2.17.

2.4  PRECISION OF VALUES FOR ASH AND SULFUR CONTENT OF FUEL
2.4.1  Anthracite and Bituminous Coal
     Users of large quantities of coal periodically test the
fuel's sulfur content by a procedure developed by the American
Society for Testing Materials (ASTM).  Even though the test proce-
dure is relatively simple, results vary because of retention
of sulfate sulfur in the ash and degree of precision with which
the sample is weighed.  The ASME Power Test Code for Solid Fuels,
PTC 3.2-1954,  Par. 69 specifies that reproducibility of results
of ash and sulfur content determinations shall be as follows:
                              Permissible differences when

Smith and Gruber report that the average ash content of coals
from the major producing districts is always less than 12 percent
and that two carbonate compounds occur frequently in coal.   It
is assumed that carbonates are present in all coals represented
on the NEDS form.  Precision of reported ash contents can then
be expressed as follows:

        3.0  PRECISION OF AREA SOURCE EMISSION VALUES

     Emissions from area sources are calculated by use of
the appropriate AP-42 emission factors and data entered on
the NEDS area source coding form (Figure 3.1).  In this
section, the emission factors, categorized as nonautomotive
and automotive, and the NEDS input data entries are analyzed
to determine the precision values.
3.1  PRECISION OF NONAUTOMOTIVE AREA SOURCE EMISSION FACTORS
     The area source emission factors used in the NEDS
computer program are taken from EPA Report AP-42.  Where the area
source emission factor (or category) corresponds to a point
source emission factor, the precision determined for the
corresponding point source emission factor is also applied
to the area source emission factor.  Precisions of the area
source emission factors are tabulated in Table 3.1.
3.1.1  Priority Pollutants
     The priority area source pollutants (nonautomotive)
are particulate, SO , and NO  from industrial combustion of
bituminous coal, NO  from commercial and institutional
combustion of natural gas, HC from solvent evaporation and
gasoline marketing, and HC and CO from off-highway gasoline
usage.

3.1.1.1  Area Source Combustion - The priority pollutants
from area source combustion are also priority pollutants
from point sources of combustion.  Calculations determining
the precision of the area source emission factors (as in the
section on point source emission factors), are shown in Table
3.2.
3.1.1.2  Evaporation - The emission factor for solvent
evaporation is 2000 Ib/ton, which means that the amount of
solvent purchased for a given operation is equal to the
amount needed to make up evaporation losses.  Therefore, any
imprecision is entailed in the estimate of the amount of
solvent purchased, and the emission factor of 2000 Ib/ton is
considered precise.
     An AP-42 emission factor is given for HC from gasoline
marketing.  Since this is a priority area source emission
factor, it is handled in the same manner as a priority point
source emission factor.  Calculation of precision of these
factors is given in Table 3.2.
3.1.1.3  Off-Highway Gasoline Usage - Emission factors for
off-highway gasoline usage are assumed to have been derived
from factors for emissions from heavy-duty, gasoline-powered
(HDG) highway vehicles.  Using the HDG emission rates as the
source of the emission factors for off-highway gasoline
usage may affect the accuracy of the off-highway emission
factors, but does not affect the precision.  Therefore, the
precision values for HDG emission rates are used in cal-
culating the precision of off-highway gasoline emission
factors.

     Precision of emission factors for CO from off-highway
gasoline usage is assumed to be equal to that of the emis-
sion factor for uncontrolled  (pre-1970 model year) HDG
exhaust.  This precision value, discussed in detail in a
later section on automotive factors  (Section 3.3.2.1), is
calculated as follows:
  Precision_o =
Var (C.) 1/2            . ..
        1     = [Q.00081]^
(C.)
                             0.028
     The emission factor for HC from off-highway gasoline
usage is calculated as the sum of the HC in uncontrolled HDG
exhaust and combined HC emissions from crankcase and evap-
oration.  Thus the variance of the off-highway HC emission
rate is equal to the sum of the variances of the uncontrolled
HDG exhaust and combined crankcase and evaporation HC emis-
sion rates:
   Var  (Off-Highway HC) = Var  (C^.^) + Var  (fHDG_HC)
                        » 0.272 + 0.952
                        - 1.224
     The precision of the emission factor for HC from off-
highway gasoline usage is therefore:
  Precision
           HC
Var (Off -Highway HC)
(CHDG-HC + fHDG-HC^ 2

                                         =  0.044
3.1.2  Non-P.riority Pollutants

factor.  When there is no corresponding point source emis-
sion factor, the area source is assigned the average pre-
cision that was determined for point source emission
factors.  Precision values are given in Table 3.1.
3.2  PRECISION OF AREA SOURCE CODING FORM ENTRIES
     The purpose of this section is to define a precision
for every entry on the NEDS area source coding form, ex-
cluding the emission estimates.  The coding form and the
entries are discussed in detail in EPA's "Guide for Com-
piling a Comprehensive Emission Inventory" , published as
APTD-1135.  When used in conjunction with the precision
ratings of the emission factors, the precision values for
NEDS entries will define a quality rating of the area source
emission values in an emission inventory.
     For all entries on the area source coding form, the
method of determination is assumed to be correct.  The
precision of the entry is then dependent on the precisions
of the factors used to determine the entry.  For instance,
if an entry X is a function of factors A, B, and C according
to the equation:
          X = (A)(B)(C) then the precision of X  (P ) is a
function of the precisions of the individual factors as
follows:
     For the cases in which APTD-1135 provides several
methods for determining a single entry, precisions are
                                 3-10

-------
calculated only for the method believed to be  most.


widely used.  For a factor whose precision varies over a


wide range of values dependent on the size of the factor, a


median value is used in determining precision.


     All entries entail rounding errors.  The units of each


information field on the coding form define what rounding


off, if any, must be performed.  For example, if values to

                                                  4
be entered in a field are expressed in units of 10  gallons,


the entry should be considered precise within + 5 x 10


gallons.  In addition to the rounding errors, the precision


of the data-gathering techniques must be considered.   When


the precision of data-gathering techniques is zero, the


precision of rounding is used.  When a precision other than


zero is assigned to the data-gathering techniques, that


precision is used for the entry on the coding form.


     Precisions of entries on the NEDS area source coding


form are summarized in Table 3.3.


3.2.1  County Data


3.2.1.1  Population - County population figures are obtained
                                   g
from the 1970 Census of Population.   The Bureau of the Census


reports almost complete coverage in the 1970 census.   They

report the population to an exact number, much more precise

than the nearest thousand coded on the NEDS form.  The


precision therefore depends only on the significant figures


reported.  For this field the precision equals +500 divided


by the entry.

3.2.1.2  Density Code - The 1970 census also classifies
urban and rural populations in a county as a percentage
urban.  This percentage is precise based on the classifi-
cation specified by the Bureau of Census.  Since APTD-1135
defines a code for each percentage, no variation is intro-
duced, and the density code is a precise number.
3.2.2  Sulfur Content
     APTD-1135  specifies using a weighted average for
sulfur content of fuels consumed in a county.  This aver-
aging creates serious problems in determining precision.  To
simplify the determination, assume that fuels consumed by
different categories of users have the same sulfur content
countywide.  This is a logical assumption, since most coal
used in a given area is mined from the same general region.
3.2.2.1  Anthracite and Bituminous Coal - The precision of
tests for determining sulfur content of coal is discussed in
Section 2.4.1, which specifies that precisions of the sulfur
content of solid fuels can be expressed as follows:

of fuel oil can be expressed as follows:

     Again, APTD-1135  specifies using a weighted average to

determine ash content of coals over an entire county.  In

this case, also, assume that the ash content is constant

over the county.  The ash contents for anthracite and

bituminous coal are determined in the same manner if ASTM

procedures are followed, as discussed in Section 2.4.1.

Accordingly, precision of the ash content value reported on

3.2.4  Residential Fuel
     For most fuels, residential fuel usage is determined by
apportioning statewide fuel totals to residential categories
and then apportioning the residential categories to counties
on the basis of dwelling units per county heating with the
fuel.
3.2.4.1  Anthracite Coal - Residential consumption of an-
thracite is usually determined on the basis of the number of
dwelling units heating with coal as enumerated by the
                       9
1970 Census of Housing.   The average consumption per
dwelling unit is the product of the coal heating requirement
factor , the average annual heating degree-days from Local
Climatological Data  , and a correction factor for the
median number of rooms per dwelling unit in the county
                                                          9
versus the national median of 5.0 rooms per dwelling unit.
The calculated residential usage of coal must be compared
with the statewide area source totals, determined by sub-
tracting the point source consumption of anthracite from the
total state consumption of anthracite given by the Bureau of
Mines.    If the calculated residential usage of coal should
exceed the statewide area source usage of anthracite, con-
sider the statewide usage as the residential consumption of
anthracite.  Assume that the difference between the cal-
culated residential usage of coal and the area source con-
sumption of anthracite represents the residential consump-
tion of bituminous coal.  The precision of the entry for
                                3-17

-------
residential consumption of anthracite coal will depend on

precisions of the factors used in the determination.

     Number of dwelling units heating with coal - This
                                                  n
figure is obtained from the 1970 Census of Housing  under

"House Heating Fuel".  This source gives a county-by-county

enumeration of houses heated with various types of fuel.

The figure is obtained from a 5 percent sample of all the

housing units nationwide.  The Census of Housing provides

tables for'calculation of the approximate standard error

based on the percent sampled and the number of housing units

in the area.  Since the standard error varies from county to

county, we generalize a precision value based on data from

the states of Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, and Iowa.  See

Appendix A.

          precision = + 0.14

     Coal heating requirement factor - This factor repre-

sents the coal required to heat an average 5-room dwelling

for one degree-day.  The factor cited in APTD-1135 is 0.0012

ton coal per dwelling unit per degree-day.  Calculating by

the method in Appendix B we obtain:

          Type House          Factor

          Insulated           0.001097 ton coal/D.U.-D.D.

          Noninsulated        0.00161 ton coal/D.U.-D.D.

     Analysis based  on these values indicates that the

factor cited in APTD-1135 was derived by assuming that  80

percent of households heating with anthracite coal are

insulated.
                                 3-18

-------
     Factor - 0.8  (0.001097) + 0.2  (0.00161) * 0.0012



     Assume that 66.7 percent of the values occur in the



range from 100 percent insulated to 60 percent insulated and



that this range represents two standard deviation units.



                              Factor



          100% insulated      0.001097

           -    precision^ ^01026 =± o.084




     Annual heating degree-days - Degree-days are obtained



from local meteorological data on average 24-hour temper-



atures by defining a degree-day as a day where the average



24-hour temperature is 1 degree below 65°F.  Temperature may



be measured very precisely.  Considering a 0.5-degree error



in the significant range of 10 degrees or greater below 65°,



we get a maximum error of + 0.05.



     Correction factor for number of rooms per dwelling unit



in the study area - This factor is based on a 20 percent



sample of all households and therefore should be precise



within the limits of the reported units.  Since this value



is reported to the nearest tenth, rounding off errors would



give +_ 0.05 or less.  The precision would then be +^ -£— .



The 5.0 in the denominator is a precise figure since it is



the basis for calculation of heat loss.  Therefore, precision



- + 0.01.



     Total statewide area source consumption of anthracite



coal - The precision of this factor depends on the precision
                                3-19

-------
of the state consumption totals in Minerals Yearbook   and
the precision of the state point source totals.  The state
totals are reported to the nearest ton and at least four
significant figures.  Consider this as a precise number,
since the worst case is precise within + 0.0001.  The
reported point source consumption is based on information
from each point source.  The precision depends on the number
of significant figures reported.  Most point sources report
at least three significant figures.  Assuming this is the
case, the precision equals + y^- = + 0.005.  Assuming that
                           — j.uu   —
the point source total accounts for no more than 90 percent
of the state totals, the precision of the area source totals
is + 0.045.
     Overall precisions - Two cases must be considered in
determining the overall precision of the anthracite coal
entry.
     Case 1:  Anthracite coal is the only coal used as
     residential fuel  (a zero will appear for residential
     bituminous coal consumption) .  The consumption of
     anthracite is the product of the factors developed
     above.  Overall precision  (P ) is determined as fol-
     lows :                       °
     P 2 =  (0.17)2 +  (0.084)2 +  (0.05)2 +  (0.01)2

     P 2 -  0.03856

     P  « + 0.196
      o   —
     Case 2 ;  Both anthracite and bituminous coals are used
     by residential sources.  In this case the residential
     anthracite consumption equals the difference between
     the Bureau of Mines figure and th$ point source totals.
     This precision,  calculated above, equals +_ 0.045.
                                3-20

-------
3.2.4.2  Bituminous Coal - Essentially the same procedures

and factors are used for calculating residential consumption

of bituminous coal as for calculating residential consump-

tion of anthracite coal; the same precisions apply.  Two

cases are considered for bituminous coal:

     Case 1;  Bituminous coal is the only coal used as
     residential fuel (a zero will appear for residential
     anthracite coal consumption.   This  total is  determined
     by the product of the factors defined in Section
     3.2.4.1.  The precision will be the same as determined
     for Case 1 in Section 3.2.4.1 and equals + 0.196.

     Case 2;  Both anthracite and bituminous coal are con-
     sumed by residential sources.  The figure is calculated
     by determining total coal usage and subtracting the
     total area source consumption of anthracite (assuming
     only residential sources).   The precision is dependent
     on the factors in Section 3.2.4.1, but since a sub-
     traction is involved, an assumption must be made as to
     the contribution from each factor.  The equation used
     to determine bituminous coal usage is:

                    B = T - A

          where     B = bituminous coal usage

                    A = anthracite coal usage

                    T = total coal usage

          From Section 3.2.4.1 the precision of T = + 0.196
          and

          the precision of A = + 0.045

          If it is assumed that anthracite consumption
          accounts for no more than 80 percent of the total
          coal consumption (A <_ 0.8T), the maximum error
          possible would be:

               + 0.196T + 0.045 (0.8T)

               or + 0.241T

          The precision of B, based on the maximum error and
          B + 0.2T, is

               ± 0-241T =
                  0.2T    - -i
                                3-21

-------
3.2.4.3  Distillate Oil - Residential consumption of dis-
tillate oil is determined by the same procedures outlined
with regard to anthracite coal.  The only factors that
differ are the number of dwelling units heating with fuel
oil and the oil heating requirement factor.
     Number of dwelling units heating with fuel oil - This
figure is obtained by the same procedure outlined for
anthracite coal calculations.  The calculation of standard
error is based on a generalization of data from Ohio,
Michigan, Kentucky, and Iowa, as in Appendix A.
               precision = + 0.06
     Oil heating requirement factor - This factor represents
the amount of oil required to heat an average 5-room dwell-
ing for 1 degree-day.  The value is given as 0.18 gallon oil
per dwelling unit per degree-day.  According to Appendix B
(ASHRAE Handbook values):
          Type House          Factor
          Insulated           0.16847 gal oil/D.U.-D.D.
          Noninsulated        0.26578 gal oil/D.U.-D.D.
     Most oil-heated homes are insulated; upon analysis, the
factor appears to represent a distribution of 88 percent
insulated and 12 percent noninsulated homes.  Since we have
no data on the actual ratio of insulated to noninsulated
homes for different counties, an assumption must be made.
If we assume that for 68 percent of the counties the range
is 75 to 100 percent insulated homes and that this range
represents two standard deviation units, we get:
                                 3-22

                 0
     precision =  p     = ± 0.068



     Overall precision - Precision of the value for resi-



dential consumption of distillate oil is equal to the



product of precisions of the factors for degree-days (0.05)



and rooms-per-dwelling (0.01, both from Section 3.2.4.1) and



the factors for number of dwelling units heating with dis-



tillate oil and oil heating requirements as just calculated.



The precision is then:

     P 2 - 0.010824

     P -  - + 0.104
      o    —



3.2.4.4  Residual Oil - Residual oil is not usually burned



in residential furnaces.  If it is used within the area of



the inventory, however, contact the local fuel dealers to



determine what percentage of their customers are sold residual



oil.  The percentage is applied to the total amount of oil



consumed by residential users (with precision of 0.104,



determined above) to calculate gallons of residual oil.



Assume that the dealers are precise within 10 percent when



reporting the distribution of oil.  Precision of the value



for residual oil consumption is then determined as follows:
                                 3-23

3.2.4.5  Natural Gas - Natural gas consumption by residential



users is reported by state in Reference 13.  The Bureau of



Mines states that these reports are obtained by direct



contact with dealers and others; they assert that these



contacts account for 80 percent of the gas produced and that



most of the remaining gas is accounted for in marketing



reports of the companies contacted.  The statewide totals



are apportioned to the county by the ratio of county/state



dwelling units heating with natural gas.  If we assume that



the Bureau of Mines statement implies that at least three-



fourths of the remaining 20 percent of natural gas usage is



accounted for, then the precision of the value for resi-



dential natural gas consumption per state is + 5 percent.



The precision of the number of dwelling units per county



heating with natural gas, calculated according to Appendix



A, is + 0.02.  The precision of the number of dwelling units



per state heating with natural gas is also calculated according



to Appendix A by using the average number of dwelling units per



state and consulting Reference 10.  The precision is + 0.001.



The overall precision  is then:

3.2.2.6  Wood - The procedures outlined with regard to
anthracite coal consumption are used again in determining
residential consumption of wood.  The two factors that
differ are the number of dwelling units heating with wood
and the wood requirement factor.
     Number of dwelling units heating with wood - This
figure is obtained by the same procedure used earlier for
other fuels.  The calculation of standard error is based on
a generalization of data from Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, and
Iowa, as in Appendix A.
               precision = + 0.42
     Wood heating requirement factor - This factor repre-
sents the wood required to heat an average 5-room dwelling
for 1 degree-day.  The value given in APTD-1135 is 0.0017
ton of wood per dwelling unit per degree-day.  According to
Appendix B (ASHRAE Handbook values) :
          Type House          Factor
          Insulated           0.00189 ton wood/D.U.-D.D.
          Noninsulated        0.00286 ton wood/D.U.-D.D.
     These factors are higher than that given in APTD-1135.
If it is assumed that the APTD value is the result of two
observations, the precision may be calculated:
     a'  ~ 0.00286^0.00189  =8.6xlQ-4

     a   - 8'6 * 10"4  = 6.1 x la'4

                                3-25

-------
     Overall precision - Precision of the value for resi-
dential consumption of wood is equal to the product of
precisions of the factors for degree-days (0.05) and rooms-
per-dwelling (0.01, both from Section 3.2.4.1) and the
factors for number of dwelling units heating with wood and
wood heating requirements, as just calculated.  The precision
is then:

3.2.5  Commercial and Institutional Fuel
     For most fuels, commercial and institutional use is
determined by obtaining statewide totals from Bureau of
Mines publications and apportioning to county on the basis
of population.
3.2.5.1  Anthracite Coal - Commercial institutional use of
anthracite coal is determined by subtracting statewide
residential use of anthracite from the total statewide area
source consumption of anthracite and apportioning the
balance to county on the basis of population.  The pre-
cisions of the values for statewide residential consumption
and total area source consumption of anthracite were deter-
mined in Section 3.2.3.4.  Also, the precisions for county
and state population figures were determined earlier, and
both are precise values.  The overall precision is then the
                                 3-26

-------
precision of the number representing the difference between
residential usage and total area source usage.  Assuming
that residential sources consume 75 percent of the anthra-
cite, the precision is determined as follows:
               T » A - R
     where     T = commercial institutional consumption
                   of anthracite
               A * total area source consumption of
                   anthracite

This precision value applies only to cases where no anthra-
cite is consumed by industrial sources.  For cases where
                                3-27

-------
anthracite is consumed by industrial sources, first subtract



statewide residential usage from total area source usage,



then assign 60 percent of that balance to the commercial



institutional category and 40 percent to the industrial



category.  Multiplying by 60 percent reduces the precision



of the entry.  Assuming that 60 percent is precise within 10



percent gives an overall precision as follows:

3.2.5.2  Bituminous Coal - The value for commercial insti-



tutional consumption of bituminous coal is the difference



between the Bureau of Mines figure for statewide consumption



of bituminous coal  (obtained from retail dealers) and the



residential consumption of bituminous coal, apportioned to



counties on the basis of population.



     The Bureau of Mines figure represents almost complete



coverage of coal producers.  The figure should be precise



within the nearest thousand tons as reported.  The error



would be + 500 tons.  Based on a median value of 193 thou-



sand tons for retail dealers distribution of bituminous coal



in the state, the precision equals 193,000 or + 0.003.  The



precision of the population figures is zero  (Section 3.2.1).



The precision of the value for residential usage of bitu-



minous coal has also been determined; assuming no anthracite
                                3-28

-------
ooal consumption, it is + 0.196.  The overall precision is

dependent on precision of the percentage of coal consumed by

residential sources.  Assuming that residential consumption

represents 60 percent of the retail dealers figure gives the

following precision:


               T - D - R

     where     T = commercial institutional consumption
                   of bituminous coal

               D = retail dealers figure from Bureau of

3.2.5.3  Distillate Oil - Commercial and institutional

distillate oil consumption is the difference between resi-

dential consumption and the sum of the figures given for

"distillate-type heating oils", "kerosene used for heating",

and "distillate used by the military" from Tables 5, 6, and

     The Bureau of Mines totals represent essentially complete
coverage of oil producers.  The figures should be precise
within the nearest thousand barrels for each category.  The
median values for each category are 532,000 barrels  "kero-
sene used for heating"; 3,339,000 barrels - "distillate-type
heating oils"; and 96,000 barrels - "distillate used by the

For most cases  the totals  are  essentially precise figures.
Imprecision  is  introduced  in determining the  difference
between the  totals and  residential  consumption.   Assuming
that residential  sources account  for  75 percent  of the
distillate used for heating, the  precision  is calculated as
follows:

     C - I = commercial institutional area  source con-
             sumption of distillate oil

should be precise within + 500 barrels for each category.



The median values for each category are 561,000 barrels - "re-



sidual-type heating oils" and 103,000 barrels - "residual

equal to the standard deviation in each case, the  precision

Again calculation  of  the  residential  consumption  of residual
oil introduces  imprecision into  the totals  for  commercial
institutional consumption.  Assuming  that residential
sources account for 50  percent of  the residual  used for

apportioned to counties on the basis of population.
     The Bureau of Mines figures should be precise within +
5 percent.  Apportioning to counties on the basis of popu-
lation should add no imprecision.  Therefore, the overall
precision is + 0.05.
3.2.5.6  Wood - A figure for commercial institutional con-
sumption of wood can be entered only if adequate local data
from fuel dealers or other reliable sources are available.
Quantities of wood are usually reported in units of cords.
Since cords measure volume rather than weight, any vari-
ability in density of the wood would affect the precision of
the weight reported.  Reference 22 reports that densities of
wood vary by more than 20 pounds per cubic foot.  Assuming
that the wood in a given location differs by only 10 pounds
from an average density of 40 pounds per cubic foot gives a
precision equal to -rx or +_ 0.25.  The quantity of wood
reported also entails imprecision.  Fuel dealers should give
figures precise within 10 percent.  The overall precision of
the value for commercial institutional consumption of wood
is then:

source consumption from Bureau of Mines data and apportion-
ing the balance to counties according to a ratio of the
number of manufacturing employees in the county to the total
number of manufacturing employees in the state.
3.2.6.1  Anthracite Coal - The total consumption of an-
thracite coal by industrial users per state is determined in
the same manner as consumption by commercial institutional
users except that the factor for industrial usage is 40
percent rather than 60.  The total is then apportioned to
counties on the basis of the total number of manufacturing
employees per county.
     Industrial area source consumption of anthracite per
state - Precision of this figure is calculated in the same
way as the value for commercial institutional usage with the
exception of the 40 percent factor:
     P2 = (0.615)2 + (Jg)2
     P2 - 0.4407
     P  « + 0.664
     Number of manufacturing employees - This figure is
obtained for county and state from Bureau of Census data
(Reference 15).  This census encompassed all establishments
employing one or more persons during the census year (1967)
and thus includes all sources considered as industrial in
the scope of the NEDS system.  Since an industrial firm can
accurately report the number of employees, and since all
firms were contacted, the census figure should be accurate.
                                 3-35

-------
But the Census Bureau reports employees to the nearest
hundred, leading to a maximum error in the county total of +
50 employees.  If we assume that the error is random, the
state total will also have a maximum error of + 50 employees.
Because of the variability of numbers of employees in
different counties and states , we assume that the precision
of median values will apply to all cases.  The median value
for a state is 175,000 employees.  The precision of this
value is    50   or + 0.0003.  The median value for a county
         175,000                                     5Q
is 2150 employees.  The precision of this value is
or £ 0.023.  Since the factor for number of employees is
county totals divided by state totals, the precision of the
factor is:


     P2 -  (0.0003)2 +  (0.023)2

     P  m + 0.023
     Overall precision - The overall-precision figure for
industrial usage of anthracite coal is the product of
precisions of the factors just calculated for industrial
area source consumption and number of manufacturing em-
ployees.  The precision is then:
     P 2 -  (0.664)2 +  (0.023)2

3.2.6.2  Bituminous Coal - First the total statewide industrial

consumption of bituminous coal is determined by consulting

the Minerals Yearbook   Table 40, pg. 357, under the category

"All Others."  To determine industrial area source consumption,

use the value for statewide industrial point source usage,

taking care that coal used for processes (i.e. coke oven

charge) is not included.  Subtract that value from the total

statewide industrial coal combustion to determine the amount

of bituminous coal burned by industrial area sources over

the state.  This figure is then apportioned to counties by

assuming that industrial fuel usage in a county is pro-

portional to the total number of manufacturing employees in

that county.  The number of manufacturing employees  for

state and county is obtained from the 1967 Census of Manu-

facturers , "Area Statistics."

     In summary, industrial area source combustion of

bituminous coal for a county is determined as follows:

                                   EC

           D • C •     B • C •    B • C •   E

            "  *    industrial users

          PB c  = point source combustion of bituminous coal

                                 3-37

-------
     Industrial source consumption of bituminous coal by



state   - This figure is based on data collected quarterly



by the Bureau of Mines from coal handlers who normally sell



or produce 100,000 tons or more of coal annually.  Reports



from these coal handlers are said to cover 94 percent of all



coal shipped or produced.  The balance is estimated by



statistical methods, and the data should be reliable, at



least within the limits of the units reported in the table



(1,000 tons).    For any one state, the maximum error in



I_ _  would be + 500 tons.
 B.C.          —


     Point source combustion of bituminous coal by state -



This factor is the summation of the coal usage reported by



all industrial point sources.  Reports of the amount of coal



burned are usually in round figures.  Since a source usually



has accurate figures for the coal burned,  precision depends



on the number of significant figures reported, which is



usually two or three.  In such cases the maximum error would



be:



     + 5%   for two significant figures



     + 0.5% for three significant figures



For consistency with the units of I_ _ , consider that the
                                   D • \* •


point source usage is reported to the nearest 1,000 tons.



Assuming random error distribution, the maximum error is +^



500 tons.



     Number of manufacturing employees per county and

(1967) and this includes all sources considered as industrial
in the scope of the NEDS system.  Since an industrial firm
can accurately report the number of employees and since all
firms were contacted, the census figure should be accurate.
But the Census Bureau reports employees to the nearest
hundred, leading to a maximum error in E  of + 50 employees.
If we assume that the error is random, the state total will also
have a maximum error of + 50 employees.
     Overall precision - To determine the overall precision
for area source industrial consumption of bituminous coal

3.2.6.3  Coke - Consumption of coke by area sources can be

determined only when local information is available.  These

data usually come directly from the companies using the

coke, who should have reliable figures for annual consump-

tion.  Estimating the figures to be precise at least to within

+ 15 percent, the precision is + 0.15.

3.2.6.4  Distillate Oil - The industrial area source use of

distillate oil statewide is the sum of figures given for

"industrial" and "oil companies" in Tables 8 and 9 of

Reference 12 (Bureau of Mines) minus the amount consumed by

industrial point sources.  State totals are then apportioned

to counties on the number of manufacturing employees.

     The Bureau of Mines totals should be precise within the

limits of the nearest thousand barrels for each category.

The median values for each category are 662,000 barrels for

"industrial" and 74,000 barrels for "oil companies".  Assuming

that the precision of the median cases applies to all cases

gives:

3.2.6.6  Natural Gas - To determine total area source con-

statewide industrial consumption of natural gas is deter-

mined from Table 5, p. 734 of the Minerals Yearbook under

the category "Industrial".  Next we consult the point source

inventory to obtain industrial point source consumption for

the state.  The difference between total statewide industrial

usage and statewide industrial point source usage is the

statewide industrial area source usage of natural gas.  This

figure is apportioned to counties by assuming that county

industrial fuel usage is proportional to the number of

manufacturing employees per county.  The number of manu-

facturing employees for state and county is obtained from

the 1967 Census of Manufacturers "Area Statistics."

     In summary, the determination of industrial usage of

natural gas attributable to area sources is as follows:
     where
             *N.G. " PN.G.  _s
A,, G  = industrial area source combustion
        of natural gas per county
               I  _  = total statewide usage of natural

               P  _  = statewide point source combustion

               E     = number of manufacturing employees

               E     = number of manufacturing employees

     Statewide usage of natural gas by industrial firms -

These data are based on annual surveys of the companies that
                                3-44

-------
distribute natural gas; these surveys account for  80 percent



of the natural gas produced.  Most of the remaining natural  gas



usage is covered in the purchase listings of the reporting



companies.  Assuming that the figure reported covers 95



percent of the natural gas consumed, the precision is +



0.05.



     Statewide point source combustion of natural  gas by



industrial users - This value is the summation of  the



natural gas usage reported by all the industrial point



sources in the state.  It is usually reported in round



numbers in units of 10  cubic feet.  Since the amount of gas



used is a readily available, accurate figure, precision will



depend on the number of significant figures reported.  A



value reported to the nearest million cubic feet gives

3.2.6.7  Wood - Usage of wood by industrial sources not



classified as point sources must be estimated from data



supplied by these sources.  Although a company may provide  a



good estimation of the feed rate to their boiler, error may



be introduced if the density of the wood is not constant.



Accounting for this type of error, assume that the esti-
                                 3-46

-------
nation is precise within 25 percent and precision is + 0.25.
3.2.6.8  Process Gas - Use of process gas by industrial area
sources can be determined only from local information.  The
most common users of process gas are petroleum refining
operations and natural gas production plants.  They usually
cannot provide a measurement in cubic feet but can supply
their heater or boiler capacity.  Because of the varying
heat content of process gas, the volume of gas required to
fire the heater or boiler to capacity also varies.  At best
the number provided by the user is an estimate, which should
be precise within 20 percent.
          P - + 0.20
3.2.7  On-Site Incineration
     On-site incineration refers to the disposal of solid waste
 in small incinerators, such as backyard burners, industrial incin-
erators, and incinerators at food and department stores,
hospitals, and schools.  Per-capita generation rates are
derived from the 1968 National Survey of Community Solid
Waste Practices  '   which provides a good indication of the
methods of solid waste disposal but a poor indication of the
quantities involved.  Analysis of the data gives a precision
for each category in the range of + 10.00.  Assume that this
precision applies to all categories of users, i.e., in-
dustrial, residential, and commercial institutional.
3.2.8  Open Burning
     On-site burning refers to the unconfined burning of
waste such as leaves, landscape refuse, or other rubbish.
                                 3-47

-------
Factors for per-capita generation rate were also derived
from the 1968 National Survey of Community Solid Waste
Practices  '  .  Again, determination of the quantity of
waste based on this survey is very imprecise.  Based on the
data examined for on-site incineration, a precision of +
10.00 is estimated for residential, commercial institutional,
and industrial sources of open burning.
3.2.9  Measured Vehicle Miles
     Entries are made in these fields of the NEDS form only
if a transportation study is available giving the measured
vehicle miles traveled.  The vehicle miles are categorized
by roadway types based on average speeds.  Since the data
for all roadway types are from the same source, the data for
each type should have the same precision.  The Bureau of the
Census reports that data gathered in the Census of Trans-
portation has a standard deviation of 3.2 percent.
     Assume that all transportation studies are as precise
as the Census of Transportation.  On the basis of Bureau of the
Census data, precisions of values for measured vehicle miles
on all types of roadways  (limited access, rural, suburban,
urban) is + 3.2 percent.
3.2.10  Gasoline Fuel
     Three methods are used in calculating consumption
of gasoline by on-highway vehicles.  Since two of the
three methods are interrelated, consider only two methods
for calculation of precisions.  Method 1 is applied
only when there is available a transportation study that
                                 3-48

-------
provides measured vehicle miles.  The study should classify



mileage by light- and heavy-duty gasoline vehicles and by



heavy-duty diesel vehicles.  Method 2 involves obtaining the


                                                      18
total statewide gasoline sales from Highway Statistics   and



apportioning values to counties on the basis of population.



     Off-highway gasoline usage is calculated by applying a



factor for annual consumption by farm tractors along with a



population-based factor to include other off-highway sources.



3.2.10.1  Light-Duty Vehicle - In Method 1 the value for



total light-duty vehicle miles is divided by 13.6 miles per


      19
gallon   to obtain total volume of gasoline consumed by



light-duty vehicles.  Both factors are obtained from trans-



portation studies and each should have a precision of +



0.032 (see Section 3.2.9).  The overall precision is then:



       222

     P  - -I- 0.0453
      o   —


     Method 2 involves obtaining the statewide sales of



gasoline for highway use, apportioning the gasoline to



counties on the basis of the ratio of county service station



sales to state service station sales, calculating total



gasoline vehicle miles traveled (VMT) by assuming an average



12.2 miles per gallon, assuming that light-duty vehicles
                                 3-49

-------
account for 89 percent of the total VMT, and assuming that



light-duty vehicles obtain 13.6 miles per gallon to obtain



gallons consumed by light-duty vehicles.  The precision of



each factor employed must be calculated to obtain the over-



all precision.



     Published gasoline sales totals by state - This figure


                                    18
is obtained from Highway Statistics.    it is compiled from



reports by state tax departments and should be a precise



figure since tax records are precise.



     County service station sales and state service station



sales - These figures are obtained from the 1968 Census of



Business.    The Bureau of Census reports that 80 percent of



all stations were canvassed by mail and data for the remain-



ing were obtained by consulting records of the IRS and



Social Security Administration.  Assuming that the records



are accurate, there should be no imprecision other than that



introduced by rounding off to the nearest $1,000.  Con-



sidering the magnitude of sales at service stations, an



error of + $1,000 is insignificant.  Therefore consider the



sales totals as precise numbers.



     12.2 miles per gallon average for all vehicles - This


                                         18
figure, obtained from Highway Statistics,   represents the



total vehicle miles in the nation divided by the total



gasoline consumed.  The total VMT is precise within 4-3.2



percent, and the value for gasoline consumed is a precise



number.  Therefore, the result is also precise within +



0.032.
                                 3-50

-------
     89 percent of total vehicle miles are contributed by
light-duty vehicles -  This  figure is obtained from Highway
Statistics18 by finding the ratio of light-duty vehicle
miles to heavy-duty vehicle miles.  Since each value has a
precision of 3.2 percent, the overall precision is deter- .
mined as follows:

     13.6 miles per gallon average for light-duty vehicles -
This value, also from Highway Statistics,   is obtained by
dividing the total light-duty VMT by the gasoline consumed
by light-duty vehicles.  Since the same precisions are
involved as before, the precision of this value is also +
0.032.
     Overall precision - Multiplying precisions of the five
factors just calculated gives the overall precision of the
value for off-highway gasoline consumption as obtained by
Method 2:
     PQ =  [(O)2 +  (0.032)2 +  (0.032)2 +  (0.045)2 + (0.032)2]1/2

-------
3.2.10.2  Heavy Vehicle - The methods for determining
gasoline consumption by heavy vehicles are exactly the same
as those for light vehicles.  The values of the factors
change slightly, but the sources are the same and the
precisions are the same.  For Method 1, with values obtained
from a transportation study, the precision is + 0.045; for
Method 2, which involves apportioning, the precision is +
0.071
3.2.10.3  Off-Highway - The total off-highway consumption of
gasoline is the sum of that used by farm tractors and the
amount consumed by other miscellaneous off-highway sources.
     Gasoline usage by farm tractors - The total gasoline
used by farm tractors is obtained by finding the total
                                                                 23
number of farm tractors in a county in the Census of Agriculture,
assuming that 60 percent are gasoline powered, and applying
a factor of 1,000 gallons per tractor per year.  Assuming
that all these factors are derived from Department of
Agriculture figures, and that only counties with 100 or more
                                                           23
farms are significant, Table C of the Census of Agriculture
may be used to estimate precisions.  Using the Table's
levels of reliability for fuels and machinery, the precisions
for both the fuel consumption factor and the percentage of
tractors powered by gasoline are +0.10 and the precision of
the number of tractors is + 0.042.  The overall precision is
then:
           Po
           PQ =~U2(0.10)2+ (0.042)2

                                 3-52

-------
     Miscellaneous off-highway gasoline consumption - This
figure is obtained by using a consumption factor of 13
gallons per capita-year and multiplying by the county
population.  APTD-1137  gives no reference for the factor of
13 gallons per capita-year; therefore we assume that the
factor is significant only to the nearest ten.  This would
give a standard error of + 5 or a precision of + 0.385.
Since the county population is a precise figure, the pre-
cision is + 0.385.
     Overall precision - The total off-highway gasoline
consumption is the sum of farm tractor usage and miscel-
laneous usage.  Therefore the overall precision is as
follows:

           T -  F + M
where      T =  total  off-highway  gasoline  consumption
           F =  gasoline  consumed  by  farm tractors
          M =  gasoline  consumed  by  miscellaneous  off-highway
               sources

          a(F) = 0.148  F
          a(M) = 0.385 M
          Var  (F) =  0.022 F2

3.2.11  Diesel Fuel
     This category includes on-highway  heavy vehicle  use,
off-highway use by miscellaneous  sources,  and  rail loco-
motive use.   The various methods  used for  calculating each
case are explained in the  following sections.
3.2.11.1  Heavy Vehicle -  Methods of calculation are  the
same as those for calculating gasoline  consumption.  The
first method  involves dividing the measured vehicle miles
traveled by diesel-powered vehicles by  a factor of 5.1 miles
per gallon.   Both  figures  are obtained  from transportation
 studies  and should have the precision indicated earlier,
 0.032.   The overall precision is then:


      P 2 = (0.032)2 +  (0.032)2
       o

      po  ~ ± °'045
                                 3-54

-------
     The second method involves apportionment of statewide
diesel fuel sales to counties on the basis of service
station sales.
     Statewide diesel fuel sales - This figure is given as
                                                        18
"on-highway use of special fuels" in Highway Statistics.
It is obtained from data reported by state tax agencies and
should be a precise figure.
     County service station sales and state service station
sales - These figures for sales of diesel fuel are from 1968
Census of Business and are precise numbers.
     Overall precision - The factors used in calculating
diesel fuel use are precise, but the coding form requires
rounding off to the nearest thousand gallons.  The precision
is then:
     P = ± °-5
         Mo. in field
3.2.11.2  Off-highway - Off-highway diesel fuel consumption
is the sum of that used by farm tractors, construction
equipment, and other miscellaneous sources.
     Diesel fuel usage by farm tractors - The method de-
scribed for calculation of gasoline usage by tractors
applies to calculating diesel fuel usage except that 35
percent of the tractors are assumed to be diesel-powered.
The same precisions apply.
     P « + 0.148
     Diesel fuel usage by construction equipment - The value
for diesel fuel usage by construction equipment is the
                                3-55

-------
product of the number of non-building construction employees



in the county and a factor of 5,000 gallons per employee-



year.  The number of non-building construction employees,



reported in County Business Patterns   is obtained by con-



sulting data from the Social Security Administration and, if



needed, by a special multiunit survey.  It should be a



precise number.  The fuel consumption figure should be



precise within the limits of significant figures.  Precision



is then ±|^j or + 0.10.



     Diesel fuel usage by miscellaneous sources - This



figure is calculated by applying a factor of 7.4 gallons per



capita annually.  Since no source is listed for the factor,



assume that it is significant only to the nearest unit.



Since population is a precise figure, the precision equals



Y~j or + 0.07.



     Overall precision - It is difficult to determine a



precision for all cases without deriving an equation in



terms of factors that do not appear on the NEDS area source



coding form.  Therefore, assume that the precision applying



to a median case applies to all cases.  The median value for



diesel fuel consumed by farm tractors is 792,050 gallons.



The median value for diesel fuel consumed by construction



equipment is 970,000 gallons, based on 194 non-building



construction workers per county.  The median value for



diesel fuel consumption by other miscellaneous sources is



105,235 gallons gased on a county population of 14,221.

3.2.11.3  Rail Locomotive - Sales of fuel oil to railroads by



state are given in Reference 12, Table 10.  County fuel


totals are obtained by apportionment on the basis of miles



of track per county.


     The Bureau of Mines totals may be considered precise


within the reported units of 1,000 barrels.  Assuming that


the median value of 1,231,000 barrels applies to all cases



gives a precision of v ?3l 000  or — °"4 x ^


     Values for miles of track per county are obtained from



detailed state maps or may be supplied by the railroads.

3.2.12  Aircraft


     This category includes all aircraft operations except


operations on dirt airstrips.  The required values for landing


and takeoff (LTO) cycles are obtained from three Federal Aviation


Administration (FAA) publications,  ~   which report the number of


"operations" performed by civil, commercial, and military aircraft


at all FAA-regulated airports and military airfields.  The number
                                 3-57

-------
of "operations" is divided by 2 to obtain the number of LTO
cycles.
3.2.12.1  Military Aircraft - The exact number of operations
performed by military aircraft is reported in Military Air
                       26                             7 ^
Traffic Activity Report   and FAA Air Traffic Activity  .
Therefore, the LTO cycles may be determined precisely.  The
units of the NEDS form field limit precision, in that the
figure must be reported to the nearest 100.  Precision is
then equal to
               No. LTO cycles
3.2.12.2  Civil Aircraft - Civil aircraft operations are
also enumerated in FAA Air Traffic Activity   and Military
Air Traffic Activity Report.    Since these reports do not
include operations at non-FAA-regulated airfields, figures
for these operations must be obtained from the appropriate
airfield officials, who should provide an exact figure.
Therefore, precision of the number of LTO cycles is limited
only by rounding to the nearest 10 as required on the NEDS
coding form.  The precision will be _ — _ .
                                    No. of LTO cycles
3.2.12.3  Commercial aircraft - The number of LTO cycles  for
commercial aircraft is detemrined in exactly the same manner
as that for civil aircraft  and has the same precision, which  is
No. ofLTO cycles
3.2.13  Vessels
     This category, which includes vessels and small craft, is
sub-categorized according to type of fuel.
3.2.13.1  Anthracite Coal - No reliable method for estimating
emissions from these vessels on a local basis is currently
known, because only nationwide fuel totals are available.
                                 3-58

-------
Thus  information on  local  fuel consumption can be obtained
only  from estimates  made by port authorities or ship operators.

     Anthracite coal usage should be assigned to counties
with major ports, according to tonnage handled in the ports.
These data are available from Waterborne Commerce of the
              28
United States,   published by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
     The nationwide  totals are reported to the nearest

limitation; for 1969 the precision is *~ ^nn or 0.03.

     Waterborne Commerce of the United States reports the
tonnage handled in the ports to the nearest ton.  Since all
ships are required by law to report their tonnage, this
should be a precise  figure.  The overall precision of the
value for anthracite coal consumption by vessels is then +
0.03.
3.2.13.2  Diesel Oil - Detailed apportioning methods
for determining fuel oil consumption by vessels are given in
APTD-1135.   Assume that all data from Waterborne Commerce
of the United States are precise.
     In-port fuel consumption - The number of vessels
entering a port, obtained from Reference 28, is a precise
number.  Assume that each vessel spends 3 days in port, and
estimate that this figure is precise within 1/2 day or —j^
« 0.167.  The vessel-days in port must be distributed
between ships using distillate (diesel) fuel and ships using
residual fuel.  This is accomplished by using the ratio of
distillate oil vessel-days to residual oil vessel-days.
First, obtain the number of barrels of each fuel consumed in
                                 3-59

the state from Reference 12.  Convert to vessel-days by
assuming that each vessel consumes 660 gal/day of diesel fuel
and 1900 gal/day of residual oil.  Assuming that these
figures are precise within their significant figures gives
precision of the diesel fuel factor equal to  -F^Q or + 0.008
and precision of the residual fuel factor equal to , QOQ-
or + 0.026.  Using median values for total statewide fuel
oil consumption by vessels, with a standard deviation of +

3.2.13.4  Gasoline - This category includes craft operated
by inboard, outboard, or inboard-outboard motors on lakes
and rivers.  Gasoline consumption by vessels can be esti-
mated by using a factor of 160 gallons of gasoline per boat
registration per year.  This factor was derived from in-
formation on average annual operating hours, average horse-
power per vessel, and average fuel consumption per horse-
power-hour of operation.  The estimate also approximately
accounts for any non-motorized boats that may be included in
the state total of registrations and for boats with small
outboard motors that may not be registered.  Boat regis-
tration data should be obtained from the appropriate state
agency, such as the State Department of Recreation of the
Fish and Game Department.
     The total gasoline consumption predicted by use of the
state total of boat registrations should be apportioned to
counties on the basis of inland water surface area.  County
inland water areas may be determined from the Bureau of the
                                 29
Census1 Area Measurement Reports.
     The factor of 160 gallons per boat registration should
be a good estimate of gasoline consumption.  Assuming that it
is precise within 25 gallons for each county, the precision
is j|| or ± 0.156.
     The number of boat registrations is a precise number.
     The surface area of water in a state is reported in square

3.2.14  Evaporation



     This category includes losses of hydrocarbons and other



organic compounds by evaporation at sources not considered as



point sources.  These  sources include gasoline-handling, dry



cleaning, surface coating, and miscellaneous solvent-use opera-



tions .



3.2.14.1  Solvent-Purchased Methods of Determination - Methods



for determining evaporation losses as a function of solvent



purchases entail  (1) a questionnaire survey of all solvent



users, or  (2) the assumption that solvent use is proportional



to population and is dependent on the population density.



     Questionnaire survey of all solvent users - A survey  is



the best and most accurate method of determining solvent



use.  Most companies maintain records  of purchase orders that



show solvent use.  Precision depends on the significant figures



reported on  the  questionnaires.  Although  this  figure  varies



among the  reporting  companies,  one  can assume  that  it  is



reported within  + 50 tons.   Precision  is then:
                                 3-64

                              " No. in field


     Assume solvent use is proportional to population and

dependent on population density - This method is used for most

counties, since surveys require considerable time and effort.

     For dry cleaning operations use factors of 2.0 solvent per

person per year in moderate climates and 2.7 Ib per person per

year for colder climates.

     For other solvent losses apply values from the following

table:
 County  population
     Solvent loss,
Ib per capita per year
     <100,000

100,000 to  500,000

500,000 to  1,000,000

           3
           8

          18
          28
     Since APTD-1135 does not cite references from which these

factors for evaporation losses were obtained, the best possible

precision value is based on an engineering estimate.

     Losses from dry cleaning operations are based on population,

climate, and factors for dry cleaning loss per person.  Since

the population value is a precise figure, all imprecision arises

from the factors dependent on climate; that is, 2.0 and 2.7 Ib/

person for moderate and cold climates, respectively.  Assuming
                                 3-65

-------
that the factors are correct, the usage should cover  a  range

from  2.0 to 2.7, since climate does not change  abruptly  from

moderate to cold.  If errors are randomly distributed,  the  range

2.0 to 2.7 should contain 99 percent of the values.   Assuming

the range is 3 standard deviations, T = + 0.2333.  Related  to

a median value of 2.35 for the use factor, the precision  equals

+ 10 percent.

     Other solvent losses are also considered in this category.

Since the population figure is precise, any imprecision results

from errors in the solvent-use factors.  Estimating the error

in each factor as + 5 and using the median value for  each range,

precision for each range is determined:

        T «  total solvent  loss

        D =  dry  cleaning  loss

        S =  miscellaneous  solvent loss

        X =  population

        a(D) =  0.1  (2.35)(X)

3.2.14.2  Gasoline Handling - This category includes only evapora-

tive losses that occur as a result of service station operations.

Among three possible data collection methods, the most common

method involves totaling the entries for light vehicle, heavy

vehicle, and off-highway consumption of gasoline.  Precision then

depends on the precisions of these entries.  For most counties,

off-highway consumption is negligible in comparison with consump-

tion by light and heavy vehicles.  Assume then that precision

depends only on the precisions of values for light and heavy

vehicle consumption:

            T * L + H

     where  T = gasoline marketed at service stations

            L = light-vehicle gasoline usage

3.2.15  Fugitive Dust Sources


     This section deals with precision  of values reported for


emissions of fugitive dust from sources that include dirt roads,


dirt airstrips, construction sites, rock handling sites,  and


several miscellaneous sources.


3.2.15.1  Dirt Roads - The value  for vehicle miles  of travel


on dirt roads is obtained by using the  figure given by the State
                                   3-68

-------
Highway Department for total mileage of dirt roads in each county



and by estimating the amount of traffic.



     The State Highway Department usually can supply a figure



for the mileage of dirt roads that is precise within the nearest



mile.  Estimating at least 10 miles of dirt road per county



as a median value gives a precision of j^- or + 0.05.



     Estimating the number of vehicles that travel over dirt



roads introduces more imprecision.  If at least some data are



available on which to base an estimate, the figure for number



of vehicles should be precise within 50 percent.



     The overall precision is then:




     PQ2 - (0.5)2 + (0.05)2




     P   = + 0.502
      o    -




3.2.15.2  Dirt Airstrips - Airstrip operators who are contacted



for the required information should be able to supply the exact



number of LTD cycles performed on the airstrip.



     Precision = + 0




3.2.15.3  Construction Sites - This category includes construc-



tion sites and other areas subject to severe soil erosion.  These



areas are estimated by the appropriate state officials, presumably



to the nearest 5000 acres with precision.





               precision =
                           No.in field



3.2.15.4  Rock Handling and Storage - These are sources too



small to qualify as point sources.  For rock-handling operations,



state offices should have registration forms giving thruput
                                3-69

-------
values.  Each source should report thruput precisely at least
to the nearest thousand tons.  The precision of the area source
totals then depends on the units reported.  The figure is rounded
to the nearest thousand tons, giving precision equal to:
                      ±0.5
                   No. in field
3.2.16  Miscellaneous Sources
     Sources in this category are characterized by intermittent
emissions of fugitive dust.  Techniques for collection of data
for estimating emissions generally do not yield precise values.
3.2.16.1  Forest Fires -
     Area - Data on areas involved in forest fires are obtained
from the U.S. Forest Service or from state forest aaencies,
which report acreage to the nearest acre.  It is doubtful that
these acres are measured precisely, without the use of aerial
photography, which yields the most precise value for affected
acreage but is not used by most state forest agencies.  Other
methods of measurement involve estimation of the extent of the
fire by personnel using maps or other indicators to determine
dimensions of the burned area.  These estimates will produce
a precise figure if the outer limits of the burned area are
determined carefully.  Assuming this is the case, the area value
should be precise within + 0.05.
     Quantity  (tons/acre) - A value for tons of wood per acre
is also obtained from the U.S. or state forestry services.
If data are not available, use 40 tons/acre for heavily forested
                                 3-70

-------
areas or 20 tons/acre for thinly forested areas.  Since no data



are at hand on which to base a precision value, assume that



the density of forestation is precise within + 0.15.



3.2.16.2  Slash Burning -



     Area - This category includes areas of slash burning and



agricultural field burning.  Values for slash burning areas



can be obtained from the U.S. Forest Service or the state Forestry



Department.



     Values for agricultural field burning area must be estimated



by the state Agricultural Department.  Precision values vary



from county to county dependent on:  1) whether burning is exten-



sive in the locale; 2) significant figures reported; 3) sources



of the data.  The best precision estimate must be based on several



assumptions to be applied to all counties.



     Where the total slash burning area in the county is less



than 100 acres, assume the number is precise within + 50 percent.



Where the total burning area is 100 acres or greater, assume



the figure is precise within 50 acres.

               precision  =  jj-—•   -> *.,
               r             No. in field




     Quantity (tons/acre) - The quantity of timber that is slash-



burned should be obtainable from the U.S. Forest Service or



the state Forestry Department.  If it is not, use 75 tons/acre.



     For agricultural field burning area use a state Agricultural



Department estimate or a factor of 2.5 tons/acre.



     For counties in which both slash and agricultural field
                                3-71

-------
burning are practiced, use a weighted average.

     Again, a precision value applicable to all counties is

determined on the basis of these assumptions:

     1.  Assume that all counties with a figure in
         this field have both slash and agricultural
         field burning.

     2.  Assume the same precision for values obtained
         for slash and agricultural field burning:  + 0.25.


3.2.16.3  Frost Control

     Number of orchard heaters - County or state Agricultural

Departments probably can indicate the number of orchard heaters

in use.  Local orchard operators can confirm this information

or give a better figure.  Assuming that orchard operators are

willing to supply this information, the figure should be precise

within the nearest hundred as reported on the NEDS area source

coding form.


               precision  =
                             No. of orchard heaters


     Firing days per year - Determine this figure by a repre-

sentative sampling of orchard grove operators.  Assume that

all heaters in a county are fired for the same amount of time

and that the number reported is precise at least within 10 days:


               precision  =  dayS5per year


3.2.16.4  Structure fires - Local fire control agencies can

supply the number of structural fires.  Assume that the number

of unrecorded or unreported fires is 5 or less:  precision is
                                3-72

-------
then equal to No.^f°fires .
3.2.16.5  Coal refuse burning - Coal refuse piles consist of
below-standard coal that has been discarded.  Ignition of these
piles and smoldering cause significant air pollution.
     Size of bank - Three dimensions of the bank are estimated
to obtain the volume.  The area factor should be precise with
10 percent, since maps can usually give detailed outlines of
the bank.  Estimation of depth of the bank introduces more error,
since depths vary according to the terrain on which burning
occurs.  Estimate that the depth factor is precise within 25
percent.  Precision is then calculated as follows:
     P2 = (0.10)2 + (0.25)2
     P  - + 0.27
     Number of burning coal refuse piles - The state air pollution
control agency should provide an exact number of coal refuse
burning operations:
               precision  =  +0

3.3  PRECISION OF AUTOMOTIVE EMISSION FACTORS
     As with emissions from point sources and from other area
sources, we consider emissions from automotive vehicles in terms
of priority and non-priority pollutants.  We did not make a
detailed study and determination of precision of emission factors
for non-priority pollutants from motor vehicles.  Instead, we
apply to this category the average precisions calculated for
emission factors for non-priority pollutants from point sources.
                                3-73

-------
 •These precision values were calculated in Section 2.1.3 and



 are summarized below:

      The balance of this section is devoted to calculations of pre-



 cisions of the priority pollutant emission factors as they are



,related to several categories of motor vehicles.   The priority



 pollutants for light-duty and heavy-duty gasoline-powered highway



 vehicles are NO , HC,  and CO.  For heavy-duty, diesel-powered
                X


 highway vehicles the priority pollutant is NOx.



      Because it is not possible to determine the exact process




 by which the emission factors were calculated for use in the



 NEDS program, several assumptions are necessary.  Using the
                                 3-74

-------
  data and  procedure outlined  in AP-42, we  assume that the  1-year-

  old  vehicles in  the population are  of the 1973  model year and

  apply the emission rates and deterioration factors designated

  for  low-altitude areas  (excluding California) .

  3-3-1  Light-Duty,  Gasoline-Powered  Highway Vehicles^

        Emission factors for light-duty,  gasoline-powered highway

  vehicles  (LOG)  are  calculated  by the method presented in  Section

  3.1.2  of AP-42,  in  which LOG exhaust emission factors for NO ,
                                                                        X
  HC, and CO are  expressed mathematically as:
                                 n+ I
                             enp = Z-     Cj d, itij $j
                                 i = n-12
         enp = Emission factor in grams per vehicle mile for calendar year (n), and pollutant (p)

         Cj =The 1975 Federal test procedure emission rate for pollutant (p) in g/mi for the i1*1 model year
            at low mileage


         d; =The controlled vehicle pollutant  (p) emission deterioration factor for the itn model year
            at calendar year (n)

         mj =The weighted annual travel of the i"1 model year during calendar year (n) The determination
            of this variable involves the use of the vehicle model year distribution

          Sj = The weighted speed adjustment factor for the i1'1 model year vehicles


       The factor  for evaporative and  crankcase emissions  of HC

 is calculated and added to  the exhaust HC emission  factor to

 give  the total HC emissions from LDG's.   The following expression

 for calculating  evaporative and crankcase HC emissions is  also

 from  Section 3.1.2 of AP-42:

           n+l
             n-!2
when:    fn * The combined evaporative and crankcase hydrocarbon emission factor for calendar year (n)

        hj s The combined evaporative and ccankcase emission rate for the i'" model year

        nt| • The weighted annual travel of the 1th model year during calendar year (n)
                                      3-75

-------
     In order to calculate the precision of the emission factor,

the precisions of c., d., m., s., and h. must first be determined.

3.3.1.1  Deterioration factor, d^ - Factors to account for deteri-

oration of exhaust control devices were obtained from Table

3.1.2-5 of AP-42.  To calculate the precision of the deteriora-

tion factors (and also of other terms used to calculate the

emission factor)  we consulted the references used to develop

the factors.  A report of the California Air Resources Labora-

tory   is cited with respect to calculation of deterioration

factors.  This report presents graphs of HC and CO emissions

versus mileage for California automobiles of model years 1966

through 1970.  Deterioration factors for each model year are

calculated by dividing the emissions at a certain vehicle age

(as determined by mileage levels)  by the emissions at age zero.

The relationship between age and mileage3 is given as:

 Vehicle Age (Years)     0123456

 Mileage                4.0   17.5  33.6  46.8  58.2  69.9  79.9
 (thousands of miles)

     In addition to the graphs, the report gives gross regres-

sion data by model year and manufacturer at various mileages.

These data  (value, upper and lower limits) are interpreted to

mean that the upper limit minus the value, divided by two equals

the standard deviation of the value.  We calculated a weighted

average of the standard deviation using the weighting factors

given in the reference as a basis for the graphs of emissions

versus maleage:
a) Data obtained from D. Kircher, U.S. EPA, March  9,  1973.
                                 3-76

-------
                                   Fraction of total sales

     Chrysler                              0.16

     Ford                                  0.34
     General Motors                        0.50


The weighted standard deviation was then based on this formula:


     Vmileage =  [*+ »f» *  *+ «g>*  *

where W , Wf, and W  = weighting factors for Chrysler, Ford,
       c           ^   and GM, respectively.

      S , Sf, and S  = standard deviations for Chrysler, Ford,
                   '   and GM, respectively.


The variance at X-miles was:

     Var (X-miles)  = fs  - miles "I
                     L x         j

Since the formula for the deterioration factor, d, is

                Value x-miles
      d
                Value4000
the formula for variance of the deterioration factor, Var(d), is;


     Var(d) =  (d)2 f  Var(4000)  +  Var  (x-miles)
                   ["
                   L
                     (Value4oooT2


Table 3.5 summarizes the variance of deterioration factors;

Tables 3.6 through 3.11 show the calculations performed  for  model

years 1968 through 1970.

     Reference 31 does not provide enough data for calculation

of precision of the deterioration factors for NO  emissions.

It presents a graph of 1971 model year vehicle emissions versus

mileage, but gives no gross regression data for that graph.

EPA used the 1971 California NOV data in the report in compiling
                               X

1973 nationwide (except California) NO  deterioration factors.
                                      X

We estimated that the average precisions of the HC and CO deteri-

oration factors for 1973 model cars at age 1 year would give
                                3-77

-------
a good approximation of the precision of the NO  deterioration


factor for a vehicle of the same model and age.  We analyzed


data from the Six Cities Report   to determine whether a pattern


developed among precisions for HC, CO, and NO  .  Since no trend


was found, we decided to use the average precision of HC and


CO deterioration factors


tion factor, as follows:
CO deterioration factors as the precision of the NO  deteriora-
                                                   X
                                      2

                   I9T30.00060 0.00222 0.00141 X
On this basis, the NO  deterioration factor for 1973 model cars


1 year old is 1.11, and the precision of that factor equals


0.0375,


3.3.1.2  1975 Federal Test Procedure Emission Rate, c. - Exhaust


emission factors at low mileage per model year  (c.) are given


in Table 3.1.2-1 of AP-42.  These factors were calculated with


test data from the Six Cities Report (Reference 32) and the


deterioration factors (Reference 31).


     The exhaust emission rates for pre-1968 vehicles at low


altitudes are the average of test data from pre-1968 model cars


in five of the six test cities  (excluding Denver).  Since these


vehicles were not subject to deterioration of exhaust control


devices, no deterioration factors were applied to  obtain low-


mileage emission rates.   Hence the variance of the emission


rates for pre-1968 model vehicles was calculated from the average


standard deviation of all pre-1968 data and the number of obser-
                                3-85

-------
vations in the Six Cities Report of the corresponding model



y«ar.  Tables 3.12 through 3.14 show the variance of the emission



rates for pre-1968 automobiles, by pollutant.



     The low-mileage HC and CO emission rates for 1968 through



1971 model cars were calculated by dividing emission values



for vehicles in the five low-altitude cities by the appropriate



deterioration factor.  No deterioration factor was applied to



NO  emission rates, since the vehicles had no NO  controls.
  X                                             X


     The precision of the emission rates for 1968 through 1971



model cars inciudes both the precision of the test data from



the Six Cities Report and the precision of the deterioration



factor used to project low-mileage emissions  (except for NO ). We
                                                           X


calculated the precision of the Six Cities Report test data using



the standard deviations, S, of the test results.  We then calcu-



lated the standard deviation of the mean, S-, by dividing S by
                                           X


the square root of the number of observations, and calculated



precision by dividing S- by the emission factor.  These calcu-



lations are summarized in Table 3.15.



     Precision of the deterioration factors were calculated



according to the procedure described in the preceding section.



Calculations of the precisions of deterioration factors not



given earlier are shown in Tables 3.16 through 3.19.

                           Six Cities Data

Table 3.20 gives variances of the low-mileage emission rates,



Var(ci) for vehicles of model years 1968 through 1973.  Since



these emission rates were based upon the relation of low-mileage



emissions to standards for 1971 and earlier controlled vehicles,



the precisions of rates for the 1972 and 1973 models are assumed



to equal the precision of 1971 emission rate.  Note that basing



1972 and 1973 emission rates on the relation of 1971 emission



rates to standards affects the accuracy of the 1972 and 1973



emission rates but does not affect the precision.  The following



equation was used for that calculation:





          Var (C1972}  =  Var (C1971>


           (C19?2)         (C1971)





3.3.1.3  Weighted annual travel, M. - The factors for weighted



annual travel, M., are given in Table 3.1.2-7 of AP-42.  These



factors were calculated by the formula M = ^fir/ w^ere a is the



fraction of total vehicle miles nationwide (by vehicle age)



and b is the average annual miles driven (also by vehicle age).



The precision of M. depends upon the precision of  values for



the fraction of vehicles in use and for the average annual miles



driven.



     Values for the fraction of vehicles in use nationwide are


                                           19
obtained from Automobile Facts and Figures.    These numbers



are very precise, since they are obtained from tabulation of



nationwide registration figures.  Calculation of automobile



emissions for any jurisdiction within the United States could

a Emission rate

b 1972 and 1973 rate based upon relationship of low mileage
  1971 emissions to standards for 1971 and earlier vehicles.
  Therefore precision of 1972 and 1973 emission rates equal
  precision of 1971 emission rate.

  Therefore:
                   (C1972)
                                3-96

incorporate registration data from that jurisdiction in lieu
of the nationwide figures to determine the fraction of vehicles
in use.  The precision of the value for fraction of vehicles
in use, whether calculated from nationwide or jurisdictional
data, is the same since both are based on registration data.
The precision value would be very low, based on the assumption
that registration data are very precise.  Therefore the precision
of the value for fraction of vehicles in use is neglected in
calculating the precision of the annual travel value, since
the precision of the value for annual miles driven will dominate.
     The reference for average annual miles driven is a Nationwide
Personal Transportation Study  of the Department of Transportation.
Data from this study are plotted in Figure 3.2 along with the
results of least-squares straight-line fit.  The variances of
the points on this line can be determined by first calculating
the standard error of estimate, Sy.x, where:
     Sy.x =  f 1   (EY2-aEY  - bEXY)]
             [B=I                 J
                                     1/2
and
         NEXY - EXEY         EY      EX
         NEX2 - (EX)2'    ~  N  " °  N
Performing this calculation yields:
     Sy.x = 1337 miles/vehicle
The variances of the points on the line are  then  calculated
by the equation:
     Var(y) = (Sy.x)2
[l +  (X - X)2]

     The standard error of estimate  (Sy.x)  is  read  from the

graph in Reference 34.  It is one-half  the  range  shown of  plus

two units of the standard error of estimate.   The graphs used

for the correction factors are based on combined  data  from Cin-

cinnati and Los Angeles.

     From the calculations of Sy, the precision of  any point on

the curve is calculated by the formula:

           p = 	i_!=_

where y is the estimated value.  The precision value is the same

for all points along the curve; results of  the precision

calculations are given below.

     The speed correction factors are calculated by dividing

emission rate at 19.6 miles per hour.  The variance of the speed

     It is emphasized that the values given here represent the
precision of the emission factors and not their accuracy.  Although
the large sample size upon which the data were based yields
very good statistical precision, the data could be highly inaccu-
rate as a characterization of a given population.  The accuracy
of the emission factors for any jurisdiction within the United
States cannot be estimated from the available data.

The combined evaporative and crankcase emission rates are given
in Table 3.1.2-3 of AP-42.  The precisions of the evaporative

rately to determine the precision of the combined emission rate.
     The data for evaporative HC emissions from LDG's are from
an interim report of General Motors Corporation.    Interpolating

     Calculation of LOG evaporative emissions also entails  use
of the figure of 26 miles driven per day, a value that approximates
the nationwide average according to data of the Department  of
Transportation (Reference 19, page 57).  Our earlier analysis
of the precision of values for measured vehicle miles on  the
NEDS area source form  (Section 3.2.2.9) indicated that values
for the total annual miles driven by all passenger cars are
precise within 3.2 percent.  Therefore, since the number  of
vehicles registered is considered precise, the values for average
annual miles traveled per vehicle and for average miles driven
per day per vehicle are assigned a precision of 3.2 percent.

     Evaporative emission rates for pre-1971  (uncontrolled)


LDG's are calculated by dividing 77.8 grams/(vehicle day) by


26 miles/day, yielding emissions of 2.99 grams/mile.  The nation-


wide limit on evaporative emissions from 1971 model LDG's was


6 grams/(HEW test).  '    The evaporative emission rate for


that model year is calculated by dividing 77.8 grams/(vehicle


day) by 36.5 grams/(HEW test), multiplying by 6 grams/(HEW test),


and dividing by 26 miles/day.  This procedure gives an emission


rate of 0.49 gram/mile.  Regulations for 1972 and newer LDG's


limit evaporative emissions to 2 grams/(HEW test).    The emission


rate for these vehicles is calculated as outlined above, using


2 grams/(HEW test) instead of 6 grams/(HEW test).  The resulting


emission rate is 0.16 gram/mile.  Calculations of the variance


of the evaporative emission rates are given in Table 3.25.


The results of these calculations are summarized as follows:

The factors in this equation that affect precision are the average
blowby of 1.1 cfm and the average HC concentraton of 15,000
ppm.  The other factors in the equation do not affect precision.
     The average blowby flow rate and its standard deviation
are reported by EPA in Reference 37.  Upon examining the data
in the reference, we interpret the  reported  standard deviation
to be the standard deviation of the mean, S-.  The reported
value of S- is 0.113 cfm.  Precision of the blowby flow rate
          A
is therefore :
     Precisionblowby flo|f      = f  -           - 0.103
     The average HC concentration in blowby gases is given in
                                        o g
a report of Scott Research Laboratories.    By use of data in
this reference and the equations :

     s   =  Max - Min   and S-  -  ^
      x         d_           x      n

the standard deviation of the mean, S-  is calculated to be 746
                                     X
ppm.  These calculations are shown in Table 3.26.  Precision
is then calculated as :

     PrecisionHC concentration = ^  =  13000=   °'0497

     The variance of  the uncontrolled crankcase  emission  rate
is then calculated by the equation :

     Crankcase emissions from vehicles of the 1963 through 1967


model years were controlled by devices considered to be 80 per-


cent effective.    The emission rates for those models are calcu-


lated by reducing the uncontrolled rate by 80 percent; the con-


trolled emission rate therefore is 0.816 gm/mile.  We estimate


that the precision of the controlled emission rate equals the


precision of the uncontrolled emission rate.  Thus:


                  Var(yx)     Var(y2)
                  — i.ri__i__	_ _' -  —      	- - -

                   (yx)         (y2)



and the variance of the controlled rate is:


     Var (controlled)  =  (0.0131)(0.816)2 = 0.00872


     The crankcase emission controls for post-1967 model year


automobiles are considered 100 percent effective, and emissions


are therefore zero.  Precision and variance are also considered


to be zero for the post-1967 model vehicles.


     Calculations for variance of the crankcase emission rates


are summarized as follows:

The factor for combined evaporative and crankcase emissions



is calculated by the .equation presented earlier:



                        Fn  =  Zhimi





The variance of this emission factor is calculated by the follow



ing equations:

     and Var(f )  =   Var(f.)

Calculation of the variance of the combined evaporative and crank-



case emission factor is shown in Table 3.27.




3.-3.1.8 "Total HC Emission factor Exhaust and Combined Evaporative



and Crankcase Emissions - The HC emission factors used in computer



calculations are the sum of the exhaust emission factors  (eHC) and



the combined evaporative and crankcase emission factors  (f) .



The variance of the total HC emission factors therefore is the



sum of variances of the exhaust factor and the combined evapora-



tive and crankcase emission factors,

 3.3.2   Heavy-Duty, Gasoline-Powered Highway  Vehicles

      The  procedures for calculating emission factors  for heavy-

 duty gasoline-powered  highway vehicles (HDG)  are presented  in

 Section 3.1.4 of AP-42.  The HDG exhaust emission  factors for

 CO, HC,  and NOX are calculated  using the expression:


              n + l


            i = n-!2

where    enp = Emission factor in grams per vehicle mtle (g/km) for calendar year (n) and pollutant (p)

         c, =The test  procedure emission rate (Table 314-1) for pollutant (p) in g/mi for the i'" model
            year, at low mileage

         dj =The controlled vehicle pollutant (p) emission deterioration I'jctor for the iln model year at
            calendar year (n)

            mination of this variable involves the use of the vehicle >ear distribution

         s, =The weighted speed adjustment factors for the i'*1  model year vehicles



      Also, a  combined  evaporative and  crankcase  HC emission

 factor is calculated and added  to the  exhaust HC emission  factor

 to give total HC emissions from HDG's.  The  following  expression

 for calculating evaporative  and crankcase  HC emissions  is presented

 in Section 3.1.4 of AP-42:

      To calculate the precision of  the  total HC  emission  factor,

we first determine the precisions of  c.,  d., m.,  s., and  h..

3.3.2.1  Test Procedure Emission Rate,  c.  - Exhaust emission

factors for  all areas except those  of  high altitudes and  Cali-

fornia  are given  in Table 3.1.4-1 of  AP-42.   These factors  were

calculated from data in References  39  through  44  of this  report.

      The pre-1970 emission  rates are  calculated  from dynamometer

                                                     39-41
test  data that simulated on-the-road  conditions.         The  preci-

sion  of these data therefore is the precision  of  pre-1970 emission

rates.   Data from References 39 and 40  are used  in the precision

calculations but  not the data from  Reference 41  which  are not

in usable form.

      The means and standard deviations  by vehicle class are

calculated separately for the two data sources  and then combined.

The mean and standard deviation of  the combined  data are  calculated

according to these formulas:

                      nl  + n2

Emissions of the three vehicle classes  (combined data) are averaged
into one emission rate for all trucks.  Because a straight average
would not realistically reflect the national truck population,
the following weighting factors are used to combine the three
vehicle classes.  These data are from the 1967 Census of Transpor-
ation (Reference 45):

     Emission factors for 1970 through 1973 trucks were compiled
from References 39 through 44 of this report.  The emission
rates are based on both dynamometer and on-the-road testing.  Ref-

43 in terms of grams of pollutant per pound of fuel.  To convert
to road emissions in units of grams of pollutants per mile traveled,
the rate for gm/lb of fuel is divided by a dynamometer-to-road
emission correction factor, multiplied by a fuel density factor,
and divided by an average mile per gallon factor.  The precision
of the value for road emissions in grams per mile is determined
by the precision of the factors with which the value is calculated.
Standard deviations of the emission test data in grams per pound
of fuel are presented in Tables 3.32, 3.33, and 3.34 for CO,
HC, and NO . respectively.  The miles per gallon figure and dynamo-
meter-to-road correction factors for HC, CO, and NO  are based
on test data in Reference 42.  Standard deviations of these
data are given in Table 3.35.
     The emission rate is then calculated using the following
equation :
           r -     lb     „ _ 1 _ Y lb fuel    1
         , i, -            *                               A
                            _ _
               lb of fuel   Dyn/Road Correction     gal      mpg
In this equation, the lb fuel/gallon factor is considered precise
and therefore is not used in calculation of precision of the
emission rate.  The variance of the AP-42 emission rates for
1970-1973 models is then calculated using the calculated variance
and the relationship:
                Var  (Cj^)     Var  (C2)
                 (C^)2         (C2)2

Calculations of variance of the AP-42 emission rates for 1970-
1973 model trucks are shown in Table 3.36.
3.3.2.2  Deterioration Factor, d. - Deterioration factors for
HDG apply only to 1975 and later California vehicles.  The deteri-
oration factor for all other HDG is 1.  Therefore, the deteriora-
tion factor used in this report for HDG calculations is 1.
and the precision of this factor is 0.
3.3.2.3  Weighted Annual Travel, m. - The factors for weighted
annual travel, m^, are given in Table 3.1.4-3 of AP-42.  These
factors were calculated by the formula m = ^— r-» where a is the
fraction of total vehicles in use nationwide  (by vehicle age)
and b is the average annual miles driven  (also by vehicle age) .
The precision of m. , then, depends upon the precision of both
the fraction of vehicles in use and the average annual miles
driven .
     The fraction of vehicles in use nationwide is obtained
from 1971 Motor Truck Facts.    These numbers are very precise,
since they are obtained from nationwide registration figures.
Calculations of truck emissions for any jurisdiction within
the United States could use registration data from that jurisdic-
tion in lieu of the nationwide figures to determine the fraction
of vehicles in use.  Precision would be the same, since both
calculations are based on registration data.  The precision value
would be very low, since registration data are very precise.
Therefore the precision of the value for fraction of vehicles
in use is not used in calculating precision of the annual travel
value .

     The 1967 Census of Transportation   is the source of data
on average miles per truck.  The value for average miles per
truck is computed by dividing annual truck miles  (according
to year model) by the corresponding number of trucks.  The refer-
ence provides data on the sampling variability of the number
of trucks, but not for the truck miles or precision of average
miles per truck.  However, the Census reports that the sampling
variability of values for truck-miles is larger than the variabil-
ity shown for the corresponding estimate of the number of trucks.
Since it is not possible to determine the magnitude of the differ-
ence in variability, the variability of the truck-miles figure
is assumed to be equal to the variability of the number of trucks .
Therefore the variance of the annual miles driven is:

                   f~S   + S   "I
      where b = — ,  average annual miles driven
                m
            t = number of trucks
            m = truck miles
 Since the precision of truck-miles is assumed to equal the pr
 cision of number of trucks, the equation reduces to:
                 „   [2 X St  ]
      Var (b)  = b2       ~^T
 The variance and precision of values for average annual miles
 driven are given in Table 3.37.
      The variance of the weighted annual travel, Var  (m^) , is
 then calculated:

     Table 3.39 summarizes the precisions of the CO, HC, and
N0x exhaust emission factors for HDG's.  Tables F-l through
F-4, Tables F-5 through F-8, and Tables F-9 through F-12, Appendix
F, show respectively the calculations for precision of CO, HC,
and NO  factors.
     It is emphasized again that these calculations show the
precision of the emission factors but do not reflect their accuracy.
3.3.2.6  Combined Evaporative and Crankcase Emission Rate, h. - The
combined evaporative and crankcase emission rates for HDG's
are presented on page 3.1.4-1 of AP-42.  To determine the precision
of the combined emission rate, we first calculate separately
the precisions of both the evaporative and the crankcase emission
rates.
     Because no information is available concerning evaporative
emissions from HDG vehicles, we assume that the rate is equal
to the LOG uncontrolled rate of 2.99 grams/mile.    Although
this assumption affects the accuracy of the HDG evaporation
rate, the precision is the same as that for the uncontrolled
LDG rate.  The variance of the HDG evaporation rate, therefore,
is. 0.0249.
     The crankcase emission rate for uncontrolled HDG's is calcu-
lated by multiplying the uncontrolled LDG emission rate (4.08
gm/mile) by the ratio of exhaust volumes (HDG/LDG).    This
calculation gives a rate of 5.2 gm/mile.    Calculation of the
precision of the HDG crankcase emission rate includes not only
the precision of the LDG crankcase emission rate, but also the
                               3-133

precisions of the HDG and LDG flow rates.  Since the  references
give no data on determination of LDG and HDG exhaust volumes
we estimate that the precision of each of the exhaust volumes
equals the precision of the LDG blowby rate, which earlier was
calculated as 0.103.
     The variance of the HDG crankcase emission rate  is calculated
by the following equation:

Var ^crankcase' =  (5'2)2

           LDG
 (4.08)
0.927
     Starting in 1968, all HDG's were required to have controls
that were 100 percent effective in eliminating crankcase emissions,
Therefore, the values for crankcase emission rate and variances
for 1968 and later HDG's are zero.
     The combined crankcase and evaporative emission rates  for
HDG's, and their variances, are as follows:

The variance of the emission factor is calculated by the  following



equations:
     Var(fi) = fi

     and Var(fn)  =




Calculations of the variance of the combined evaporative and



crankcase emission factor are shown in Table 3.40.



3.3.2.8  Total Exhaust and Combined Evaporation and Crankcase HC



Emission Factors - The HC emission factors used in the computer



calculations are the sum of the exhaust emission factors  (e...,)
                                                            nL


and the combined evaporative and crankcase emission factors



(f ) .  The variance of the total HC emission factors is therefore



the sum of the variances of exhaust and combined evaporative



and crankcase emission factors,



     Var (total HC emission factor) = Varfe.,,,) + Var(f)
                                          nC


     The precision of the total HC factor is then:





     Precision  -   Var (total HC emission factor) 1/2



                             2




Table 3.41 shows the precision of the total HC emission  factor.



3.3.3  Heavy-Duty, Diesel-Powered Highway Vehicles



     Emission factors for heavy-duty, diesel-powered highway



vehicles (HDD) are given in Section 3.1.5 of AP-42.  These emis-



sion factors apply to all HDD's regardless of vehicle  speeds,



geographical location, or vehicle age.  The reference  cited



in AP-42 for calculation of the emission factors is a  compilation

of data, that gives only derived emission factors.     Since



the reference does not provide enough data from which  to calculate



the-precision of the emission .factors, we assume that  the precision



of the NO  emission factor for HDD's is equal to the precision
         X


of the emission factor for uncontrolled  (pre-1970) HDG's, which



was earlier determined as:



                         1/2
     Precision =
                 Var(C.)

0.00125
                                         1/2
0.035
The precision of the NO  emission factor for HDD's  therefore  is



0.035.

          4.0  COMPUTERIZATION OF QUALITY ANALYSIS

4.1  INTRODUCTION
     SIEFA is designed to prepare an inventory of point and
area sources of air contaminant emissions for a specified
geographical area.  The format for the output is shown in
Figure 4.1.  In addition to showing the total quantity of
emissions from selected categories of point and area sources,
the output provides an indication of both precision and
accuracy of the estimated emissions.
     Development of precision values for point and area
sources has been described in detail in Sections 2.0 and
3.0; these precision values are given in SIEFA format as
standard deviations of the estimated emission values.  As
discussed earlier, a quantitative evaluation of the accuracy
of emission values cannot be performed in the same manner,
since no means are available by which to determine the
'true1  value of a given emissions figure.  We can, however,
enhance the accuracy of emissions estimates by approximating
emission values in cases where data are not sufficient to
yield sound estimates.  Thus, rather than compiling an
inventory in which some values are simply omitted, we supply
an approximate value based on known factors {discussed in
                                4-1

Section 4.5.3).  Then, by indicating in SIEFA output the

number of sources for which these approximate values are

supplied, we are indicating also the degree of accuracy of

the total emissions value.  Stated very simply, we increase

the overall accuracy of emissions reporting by substituting

approximate values for missing data elements, and we in-

dicate clearly the sources to which these approximate values

are applied.

     The user of SIEFA prepares a request card which spec-

ifies the geographical region and the pollutants to be

inventoried.

     Options for geographical area include:

     1. One county
     2. All counties in a state
     3. One state
     4. All states
     5. One Air Quality Control Region  (AQCR)
     6. National Summary

     The user may request an emissions inventory for one or

more of the following pollutants;

     1. Particulates
     2. Sulfur dioxide
     3. Nitrogen oxides
     4. Hydrocarbons
     5. Carbon monoxide

     The NEDS user's file consists of fixed-length records,

each containing 552 bytes.  Figures 4.2 and 4.3 show the

output formats for area and point source records, respec-

tively.  An area source record is identified by an A in

position 9 and a point source by a P in position 9.  For

each county there is one area source record followed by a
number of point source records, which are in sequence by
plant ID number and point ID within each plant.  When a
point ID has more than one source classification code (SCC),
the records are in sequence by SCC.
     The first record for a state is a dummy record con-
taining the State ID number in positions 10-11 and zeros in
positions 12-32.  The last record in the user file is also a
dummy record with a 99 for state ID.
4.3  DATA SELECTION
     The user's request card specifies the geographical area
and pollutant(s) to be inventoried.  The basic output
tabulation provides an inventory of all area and point
source emissions of a single pollutant in a county.  If the
inventory is to include more than one pollutant, the system
outputs data for one pollutant at a time.
     When the retrieval strategy requires an inventory for a
number of counties, as for example when the user wishes to
inventory all counties in a state, the system processes each
county in sequence from the NEDS User File.  If the re-
trieval strategy requires an accumulation of data for a
number of counties, as for example an inventory of an AQCR
or a state or national summary, the system sets up a selec-
tion key appropriate for the geographical area.  The area
and point source data required for the output are accumu-
lated and the totals are printed after data for the last
county have been processed.  Because of the amount of output
                                4-17

and computer time, it would be unwise to request a run for
each county in the entire United States.  Such a project
should be handled as a series of inventories of individual
states .
     Having determined the first county to be included in
the inventory, the system reads the first record for the
county.  This first record should have an A in position 9 of
the record, signifying data for area sources in the county.
Each successive record should have a P in position 9,
signifying data for an individual point source.
4.4  PROCEDURE FOR CALCULATION OF AREA SOURCE DATA
     The program calculates estimated annual emissions and
the variance of the annual emissions value for each area
source category identified by Source Type A on Figure 4.4.
The equation for determining estimated annual emissions is:
     where     E = Estimated annual emissions  (tons/year)
               M = Multiplier to maintain units of measure-
                   ment  (see Table 4.1).
               T = Annual thruput  (see Figure  4.4 for
                   position in record) .
               F = Emission factor
     Note:     Emission  factors for area sources are given
               in Table  4.1.  Emission factors are related to
               the specific area source by the appropriate
               line number on the output listing.  When  the
               pollutant being inventoried is  either par-
                                4-18

4.4.3  Procedure C

     For off highway gasoline vehicle it is necessary to  cal-

culate the precision of thruput (P ) for the specific county

as follows:r      -                   ->iV2
           J0.022T  - 0.572TP + 28.73P  I
     where:

            T = thruput  (position 214-218)

            P = population  (position 232-235)

 4.5   PROCEDURE  FOR CALCULATING  POINT SOURCE DATA

      A point source record has  a  P  in  position 9 of the NEDS

 user  file  record.   A point source is uniquely identified by

 the following:

-------
     For some point sources emissions are assigned to more
than one SCC code.  In this situation the file contains a
record for each SCC code, and the records are in sequence by
code number.
     The point source emission value is read from the file.
Locations of the emission data for each pollutant are as
follows:

      The program incorporates three options depending on the
 value of emission (E) for a point source.
 4.5.1  If E > 0
      (1) Add emission value  (E) to the appropriate point
 source category designated by the SCC code as shown in
 Figure 4.4.  For example, Electric Generation-Anthracite SCC
 « 1 01 001 XX and includes the following individual SCC's.
                                4-46

                         1 01 001 06
                         1 01 001 99
     Note:     The SCC code for Industrial Process  (Point) -
               Evaporation (line 139 of the output  listing)
               is given as 3 08 on Figure 4.4.  In  the NEDS
               User File SCC codes for these sources are
               between 4 01 001 01 and 4 90 999 99.  To
               facilitate calculation of hierarchial totals
               required for the emission inventory, these
               SCC codes are transposed to a dummy  code of 3
               08 XXX XX.
      (2) Calculate the variance Var (E) of the emission
value as follows:
              Var  (E) - E2  |pT2  + pp2  + P(,2  + P
       where  E  = emissions  in  tons/year
              PT = precision  of  thruput
              Pp = precision  of  emission factor
              PC » precision  of  ash  (A)  or  sulfur  (S)  content
              PD * precision  of  penetration(control device efficiency)
                                 4-47

-------
     Precisions of thruput values are presented in Table
2.17.
     In the event that one (or more) of the required precisions
cannot be determined, the value of Var (E)  is set to zero for
the point source.  An error message is then printed indicating
that the appropriate precision term(s) is missing.
     Precisions of emission factors are presented in Tables
G-l through G-5 of Appendix G for the five pollutants.  The
numbers of entries in these tables are 613 for particulate,
293 for sulfur dioxide, 271 for nitrogen oxide, 349 for
hydrocarbon, and 259 for carbon monoxide.  The SCC code
(position 25-32 in record) and the method of estimation
(position 243-247 in record depending upon pollutant) are
needed to determine precision.  Acceptable methods of
determining precision are  coded 1,  2,  3, 4 and 5.  If the
method code is blank use the  precision of the emission
factor for Method  4.  If the  method code is  zero  do not
compute a value  for  Var  (E) but read  the next record.
     Tables G-l through G-5 contain estimates of precision
for the emission factor for the SCC's included in  (give the
name of publication or date of list),  If this list is ex-
panded it is necessary to update the corresponding tables in
the computer program.  Procedures for such an update are
included in the system operating procedures.  In  the event
that a point source in the NEDS User File has an  SCC which is
not included in Tables G-l through  G-2, the  system will
                                4-48

-------
substitute a value of  zero  for P-  (precision  of  the emission


factor) and print an error  message  indicating that  the  emission


factor is not in the appropriate table.


4.5.1.1  Precision of Values for Ash (or sulfur)  content  -


As mentioned earlier the emission factor for some SCC's


includes a suffix of A or S.  In such cases the precision of


A or S (P-,)  is included in the calculation of the Var (E).

     SIEFA is capable of calculating the precision of either



ash or sulfur content only for the SCO's listed above.  In



order to expand this list of acceptable SCC's it is necessary



to develop the appropriate algorithm for calculating precisions.



The algorithm must then be programmed into the system.



Instructions for updating SIEFA for new algorithms are included



in the system operating procedures.




4.5.1.2  Precision of Penetration Values - The precision of



values for penetration (i.e., the number 1 minus the control



device efficiency (%) are presented in Table 4.6.



     If the control device efficiency is:



          >0  see Table 4.6

4.5.3  If E - 0 and Estimated Emission is Blank
     C.  If E = 0 and estimated emissions for the pollutant is
blank, an approximate emission for the source is calculated by
the following equation:
               TFD
          E = 2030" t0nS per year
     where  T = operating rate (thruput) in positions 314-
                320
            F = emission factor for SCC and pollutant.   (SCC
                table should be available in NEDS program.)
            D * 1 minus estimated control efficiency
                (penetration).

next record.
     Having calculated an approximate emission for the point
source,
  1. Add the approximate emissions for this source to the
     total approximate emissions for the point source
     category.
  2. Add 1 to the count of the number of sources for which
     approximate emissions were calculated for the point
     source category.

  3. Prepare a list of each point source for which an
     approximate emission was calculated including:

    Note: Flag each parameter for which an approximated
          value is used.
When the last point source for a county has been processed,
determine from the users request whether an output tabulation
is to be prepared for this single county.  If no output is
required at this point, read and process data for area and
point source records of the next county.  If an output is
required, calculate the hierarchical totals or other values
specified on the output format.
4.6  PREPARATION OF OUTPUT
A.   Calculate sum of estimated and approximated emissions
     for each source category specified in the output format
     (Table 4.1).  Note that because no approximate emis-
     sions are calculated* for area sources, the value for
     estimated and approximated emissions will be equal to
     the value for estimated emissions.
                                 4-55

-------
B.   Calculate the hierarchical totals for estimated emis-



     sions, variance of estimated emissions, number of



     sources for which emissions are approximated, and



     estimated and approximated emissions.



C.   Calculate standard deviation of estimated emissions for



     each appropriate entry on the output format as follows:



                                               1/2
               Standard deviation = [Variance]  '



D.   Print output listing.



E.   Continue to process other geographical areas or other



     pollutants as specified by user's request card.

 15. SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES
 16. ABSTRACT
      This report describes a Source Inventory and Emission Factor Analysis (SIEFA), a
 program designed to determine the precision of emission inventories.   Through appli-
 cation  of the SIEFA program, users  of the data generated in an  emission inventory will
 have at hand not only the values derived from emission calculations but a definition
 of their quality;  that is, a statement of the statistical precision  of each value
 and the precision of the overall emission inventory.  Throughout this report these
 words have the following meaning:
      Precision - A measure of variability, due to unknown factors which affect a
                   measurement made on similar elements from a population.  This
                   variability is assumed to be random.
      Accuracy -  The degree to which data are biased.
 The precision values generated herein are not actually "true" precision, but rather
 the best estimate of precision that could be obtained.
