I.    INTRODUCTION
      A.  BACKGROUND OF PROGRAM
         A primary purpose of the Federal Air Quality Act of 1967 was to
provide for planning and control programs on a regional basis.  More recently,
the Environmental Protection Agency has required the preparation, adoption
and submittal of implementation plans for meeting national ambient air stan-
dards by each of the states.
         An important first step in implementation planning is the carrying
out of an emissions inventory to determine the principal pollution sources
in the state.  The present report presents the results of an emissions in-
ventory for the state of North Dakota.
      B.  DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM
         The study program is concerned directly with establishing annual
emission levels for the following five pollutants:
                         Particulates
                         Sulfur Dioxide
                         Carbon Monoxide
                         Hydrocarbons, and
                         Nitrogen Oxides
         The annual emission levels for each of these pollutants are estab-
lished for each of the 53 counties in North Dakota as well as for the four
principal metropolitan areas:   Bismarck/Mandan, Fargo/West Fargo, Grand
Forks, and Minot.  In addition, totals for these pollutants are presented
for the two Federal Air Quality Control Regions in North Dakota.  These
regions are No. 130 consisting of Cass County and No. 172 consisting of the
remaining 52 counties.   Figure 1 presents a North Dakota map which shows the
geographic locations of these regions.
         For each geographic area discussed above (region,  county, city),
the emission levels for each of the 5 pollutants are presented by source
category.   These categories are:

         1.  Stationary Fuel Combustion Sources - These include power
             plants, as well as industrial, institutional, commercial,
             and residential facilities.
         2.  Transportation Sources - These include both gasoline and
             diesel-powered motor vehicles, aircraft and railroads.
             In addition, tractors, the major off-highway consumer of
             both distillate fuel oil and gasoline, are classified in
             this source category.  Also included are evaporative losses
             from gasoline marketing.
         3.  Solid Waste Disposal - Municipal and private dumps which
             practice open burning, together with residential, commer-
             cial - institutional and industrial incineration and open
             burning comprise this source category.  There are no
             municipal incinerators in North Dakota.
         4.  Process Losses - These include stone crushing and pro-
             cessing, various minerals industries, asphalt and concrete
             batch plants, meat packing and over 650 grain elevators
             spread throughout the state.  Included here are evaporative
             losses at petroleum bulk storage terminals, solvent evapo-
             ration from surface coating operations, and solvent evapo-
             ration from dry cleaning.
     C.  USE OF THE INVENTORY
         The data presented in this survey are not to be interpreted as
absolute values.  The pollutant emissions obtained should be considered as
estimates to be used in defining the extent and distribution of air pollu-
tant emissions in North Dakota.  The data are accurate enough to be used in
conjunction with ambient air quality measurements in the preparation of ari
implementation plan for meeting national ambient air standards.

 II.  SUMMARY
     The  results  of  the  statewide  emissions  inventory  program  for North
 Dakota  are  summarized  in Tables  1  through  6.  Emissions  from all pollutant
 source  categories  are  presented  and  totalled  for both  of the Air Quality
 Control Regions as well  as  for the four  principal urban  centers; Bis-
 marck/Mandan,  Fargo/West Fargo,  Grand Forks,  and Minot.  A  general dis-
 cussion of  the results for  each  of the five  pollutants of interest is  pre-
 sented  in the  following  sections.
     Both the  computer program,  which handled the source data, and the
 emissions summary tables on which  the reduced data were  to  be  presented,
 were based  on  fuels  most commonly  used throughout the  nation.  Hence,  the
 only coal types shown  in the computer printout and summary  tables are
 anthracite  and bituminous.  However, North Dakota has  enormous reserves
 of low-sulfur  lignite coal, and  coal-burning  installations  use this fuel
 almost  exclusively.  As  a consequence, all references  to coal use in North
 Dakota  imply lignite coal.
     A.   PARTICULATES
          1.  The  principal  sources of particulate matter statewide are
 stationary  fuel combustion  and process losses, the former accounting for
 about 43  percent of  the  total and  the latter about 53  percent.  The process
 losses are  due chiefly to grain  elevator operations, but asphalt batching
 plants may  pose local problems.  The principal combustion source is coal-
 burning at  steam electric power  plants.
          2.   The source distributions for the two regions are markedly
 different.  In Region 130,  about 12 percent of the emissions result
 from combustion and 86 percent are due to processes, while in Region 172,
 these values are 50 percent and 46 percent, respectively.  This is due chiefly
 to the lack of any large coal-burning steam electric power plants in Region 130.
          3.   Stationary fuel combustion and process losses constitute the
major particulate sources for the four urban centers, but,  as the table
below indicates, the percentage distributions vary widely:

      B.    SULFUR DIOXIDE
           Fuel combustion is responsible for over 80 percent of all the
 sulfur dioxide emissions in North Dakota with coal combustion accounting
 for about  70 percent of the total.  This generalization holds true for
 both  regions and for three of the four urban centers, the Bismarck/Mandan
 area  being the lone exception.  Neither Bismarck nor Mandan have any large
 coal  burning operations within their city limits, and both depend heavily on
 low sulfur natural gas for process heating and space heating.
      C.    CARBON MONOXIDE
               Gasoline powered off-road and highway vehicles produce about
 87 percent of all the carbon monoxide emissions in North Dakota.   The only
 other major source is a petroleum refinery outside Mandan which produces
 8.9 percent of the state total.
     D.    HYDROCARBONS
           The principal sources of hydrocarbon emissions in North Dakota
 are evaporative losses from processes (13 percent) and transportation-related
 losses (68 percent).   The process losses are chiefly due to dry cleaning
 operations, surface coating processes, and evaporation from petroleum
 storage tanks.   The transportation losses are principally derived from evap-
 oration of gasoline from vehicles and gasoline marketing operations.'
     E.    NITROGEN OXIDES
           The two most important sources of nitrogen oxides are coal combustion
 and gasoline engine operation, which contribute 47 percent and 35 percent,
 respectively, to the state total.   Only the Bismarck/Mandan urban area,
where negligible amounts of coal are burned, differs significantly from
 these values.  In this area,  67 percent of the nitrogen oxides are emitted
 by gasoline engines and 16 percent by diesel motor vehicles.
                                  11

III. AREA DESCRIPTION
     North Dakota is the 17th largest state in the Union.  Its 70,665 square
miles are divided into three geographic regions.  From east to west these
are the Red River Valley, the Young Drift Plains and the Great Plains.  The
Red River Valley Region is noted for its highly fertile land.  Separated
from the Young Drift Plains by escarpments, its main products are wheat and
dairy products.  The Young Drift Plains' main industry is also agriculture.
These plains are bordered on the east by the Pembina Mountains, on the north
by the Turtle Mountains and on the west by an escarpment.  The Great Plains
are in the Western part of the state.  The soil here is not of as high a
quality as it is in the rest of the state; hence, it is used for cattle
grazing.  This area is also rich in mineral deposits, and coal, natural gas,
petroleum, sand and gravel are produced here.  The main agricultural products
of these regions are wheat and flaxseed with lesser amounts of oats and
potatoes being produced.  The major industries are cattle, meat packing, and
dairy products.
     The meteorological data of the area show  that it is basically a cool
dry area with weather patterns which indicate good ambient air circulation.
The average low temperature is 0 degrees in January while the average high
is 84 in July.  For a given year,the average number of degree days ( a
measure of heating requirements in buildings) is 9300.  The average yearly
precipitation is 18 inches.  Due to the different regions in the state, no
single statement can be made about prevailing winds; however, from the air
pollution standpoint it is important to note that the average percentage of
days with calm winds is 3 percent.  When this is compared to Los Angeles'
value of 13 percent, North Dakota should have significantly less trouble
with photochemical smog formation.
                                    12

IV.  METHODOLOGY
     A.  DEFINITION OF POINT AND AREA SOURCES
         Emissions inventories consider two types of emissions sources,
point and area sources.  Point sources are generally large establishments
which have emissions great enough to warrant individual consideration.  The
other source classification, area sources, has emissions which are too small
to consider individually and are accounted for collectively.
         1.   Definition of Point Sources
              The Federal Register (Volume 36, No. 67, Part II, Appendix C)
lists those major pollutant source categories which are to be classified as
point sources, independent of size.  North Dakota contains the following
industrial categories which are included in the Federal listing:
                   Charcoal Manufacturing
                   Alfalfa Dehydrating
                   Feed and Grain Handling and Processing
                   Meat Smoke Houses
                   Gray Iron Foundries
                   Asphalt Roofing
                   Asphaltic Concrete Batching
                   Bricks and Related Clay Refractories
                   Concrete Batching
                   Paperboard Manufacturing
                   Rock, Gravel and Sand Quarrying and Processing
                   Steam Electric Power Plants
                   Petroleum Bulk Storage Terminals
                   Petroleum Refining and Production
                   Natural Gas Refining and Production
              In addition to the above industrial classifications,  all
fuel combustion sources were considered point sources if one or more of the
following air pollutant emission criteria were met:
                                    13

-------
              a.   Annual Particulate Emissions of 5 tons or
                   Greater.
              b.   Annual Sulfur Dioxide Emissions of 10 tons
                   or Greater.
              c.   Annual Nitrogen Oxide Emissions of 25 tons
                   or Greater.
         2.   Definition of Area Sources
              Area sources are defined as those combustion and process sources
which in themselves are too small to constitute a point source, but when con-
sidered collectively, will significantly contribute to the total emissions of
the study area.
              The following presents a listing of those categories considered
as area sources in North Dakota.  However, these categories exclude those in-
dividual sources which have emissions large enough to classify them as point
sources.
              a.   Fuel Combustion - Stationary Sources
                   (1)  Residential - Combustion of distillate oil, natural
gas, and liquified petroleum gas (LPG) accounts for pollutant emissions from
residences.  A negligible amount of coal is used in North Dakota for resi-
dential purposes.
                   (2)  Commercial and Institutional - Area source emissions
in this category result from the combustion of distillate and residual fuel
oil, natural gas and LPG.  The coal used in North Dakota in this category
is virtually all accounted for by point sources.
                   (3)  Industrial - Area source  emissions in this category
result from the combustion of distillate oil,  residual oil and natural gas.
Essentially  all the industrial coal utiliEed  is  accounted for by point
sources.
              b.   Process Losses
                   (1)  Dry cleaning establishments.
                                   14

-------
                    (2)   Surface coating  operations.
                    (3)   Grain Elevators  - This category only includes those
 elevators  that  did  not  return questionnaires.  For these non-responding
 sources, emissions  were estimated, based on  information obtained from returned
 questionnaires.
              c.    Solid Waste Disposal
                    (1)   On-site open burning of refuse.
                    (2)   On-site incineration of refuse.
              d.    Transportation
                    (1)   Motor Vehicles - Both gasoline and diesel powered
 vehicles are included.
                    (2)   Locomotives.
                    (3)   Aircraft - Only  commercial flights are considered.
                    (4)   Tractors - Tractors  are the major off-highway con-
 sumer of both diesel oil and gasoline.
                    (5)   Evaporative losses from gasoline marketing.
     B.  POINT SOURCE METHODOLOGY
         1.   Data  Collection
              a.    Preparation of Mailing List
                    Using the previously discussed list of point sources, a
 mailing list of potential point sources  in North Dakota was prepared.  A
 questionnaire and cover  letter, which gave a brief description of the pro-
 gram, were mailed to each of the potential sources.  The references used in
 compiling the mailing list, the cover letter, and sample questionnaires are
 shown in the Appendix.
                   As discussed earlier, a fuel combustion source,  other
 than those specified in  the Federal listing of major industrial categories,
was classified as a point source if its annual emission level  for particu-
 late, SOh,  or NO  was equal to or greater than 5,  10, and 25 tons,  respectively.
        <—       X
                                    15

-------
                   In compiling this mailing list, however, there were
 several categories (such as schools, hospitals, hotels, a variety of resi-
 dential, commercial, institutional, Federal and civic buildings, together
 with many miscellaneous industries) which, because of a lack of information
 pertaining to the type and quantity of fuel consumed, could not definitely
 be classified as point sources.  Working criteria for the completion of the
 point source mailing list were then established and are presented below:
     Manufacturing & Commercial Establishments - more than 25 employees
     Schools and Colleges                      - more than 100 students
     Hospitals                                 - more than 50 beds
     Hotels and Motels                         - more than 100 rooms.
                   These criteria were modified as required in the light of
 knowledge of either State or GCA personnel as well as data available from
 the individual sources.
              b.   Questionnaire Follow-up
                   The follow-up to the questionnaire mailing phase of the
 program consisted of two parts: (1) the determination of the significant
 potential point sources which had not responded or which had responded with
 insufficient data, and (2) the recontacting of these sources.  Recontacting
 was by telephone, personal contact or by another letter.  Emphasis was placed
 on those sources which appeared to be large emitters of pollutants such as
 power plants, but other categories were contacted as well.
                   In many cases, returned questionnaires indicated that the
 source emitted less than 0.5 tons of uncontrolled pollutant.   Because input
 to the computer program used for the emissions inventory compilation requires
 that emissions be rounded to the nearest ton, such emissions  were considered
 zero.
                   Table 7 presents a summary of the number of potential
point sources to which questionnaires were sent,  the final number of res-
ponses and the percentage response for the various categories.   Telephone

evaluation are considered as responses.  In general, the percentage response
reflects the relative importance of the source category.  However, one cate-
gory with a poor percentage response, grain elevators, is a large pollution
source and emissions from non-responding sources in this category were esti-
mated using average emission levels obtained from the respondents.  As pre-
viously noted, these estimated emissions were then included as an area source.
                   The overall response of 62.5 percent is considered quite
good in view of the voluntary cooperation required of the contacted sources.
The percentage of total emissions accounted for by this survey is believed
to be much greater than the percentage response, because virtually all of
the known major emission sources were contacted.
         2.   Data Analysis
              Analysis of the data from the completed questionnaires con-
sisted of two essential phases:  a. the choice and use of a coordinate system
for defining the locations of point sources, and b. the transforming of raw
data from the questionnaires into the form required for input to the com-
puter program used by the Office of Air Programs (GAP) for the final emis-
sions inventory calculations.
              a.   Coordinate System
                   The Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinate system
was chosen for North Dakota because:  (a) the system is widely used in meteo-
rological modeling, (b) maps with the UTM grids denoted are readily available
from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS),  and (c) the UTM system does not suffer
from grid irregularities to the same extent as do most other systems, notably,
the township/section system used in North Dakota.  In general, the locations
of individual point sources were determined to within one kilometer in either
(flat projection) dimension.
              b.   Computer Input Forms
                   The details of the data manipulation required for data
transformation will not be discussed here.   Instead,  some critical assump-
tions and statements of policy regarding data treatment will be reviewed in
the following material.
                                     18

-------
                    (1)   Stack  Parameters  -  Information concerning stack
heights,  diameters,  and  flow conditions are given only for sources emitting
50 tons or more  per  year of  any  pollutant.   In most cases where such data
are given, they  are  based on estimates using GAP recommended procedures.
                    (2)   Process  Weights - In most cases, the respondents
gave this information, but grain elevators  generally did not.  To obtain
process weights  for  these sources, a grain-handling time of 1000 hours per
year was assumed for country elevators, and 2000 hours per year for terminal
elevators after  talks with some  operators.   In some cases, a lack of suffi-
cient data required  that the maximum process weight be set equal to the
normal process Weight.
                    (3)   Fuel Characteristics - In almost all cases, these
were given on the returned questionnaires.   In those few cases where such
data were not given, either  State Laboratory Commission data^  ' or data
from other similar point sources were used.
                    (4)   Pollution Control Efficiency - Major point sources
gave control efficiencies  almost without exception, but many smaller sources
did  not have such data.   The values given by McGraw and Duprey ^  ' were
normally used where  the  data ware missing.  However, because of the usual
operating procedures at  grain elevators, the dust houses frequently used
were  assumed to have a zero percent particulate removal efficiency.
                   (5)   Emissions - Some respondents included estimates of
actual emissions on  their  returned questionnaires.   These data were used if
they  showed reasonable agreement with estimates obtained by the use of emis-
sion  factors.  Otherwise,  the estimated values based on emission factors
were used.
                   (6)  Allowable Emission - Legally permissible emissions
                                                           /I Q\
of sulfur dioxide and particulates by both North Dakota lawv   ' and the
                       (19")
Federal model standardsv   ' were hand calculated for all regulated point
sources in the state.  The Federal model sulfur dioxide emission was  cal-
culated for combustion sources  by assuming 80 percent  removal.
                                    19

-------
     C.  AREA SOURCES
         1.   Area Source References
              References used to compile data for the consumption and appor-
tionment of area source fuel, solid waste and evaporative losses in North
Dakota are summarized in Appendix C.  These references include both local
and state data together with data compiled by private companies and by
Federal agencies such as the Census Bureau and the Bureau of Mines.
         2.   Data Analysis
              The following section discusses the methodology utilized in
estimating and apportioning fuel, solid waste, and process area source
emissions.
              Because a variety of area source categories utilize a number
of different types of fuels, Table 8, which summarizes these fuel consuming
area source categories and the types of fuels utilized, has been prepared.
The ensuing discussion of stationary fuel combustion and transportation
area sources  is  based upon this table.
              a.    Stationary Fuel Combustion
                                                  (25)
                   (1)  Coal - The Bureau of Minesv  ' has published data
for coal consumption in North and South Dakota combined, but no values were
available for the states individually.  However, consumption totals obtained
from the point source questionnaires of these states exceed the combined
total published by the Bureau of Mines.  Therefore, it was concluded that
all coal consumption in North Dakota is accounted for by point sources and
that area source coal consumption is essentially zero.  This was confirmed
by communications with various state officials familiar with coal usage in
North Dakota.
                   (2)  Residual Oil - Returned questionnaires indicate
that residual  oil consumed by point sources exceeds the Bureau of Mines
                 ( 26^
consumption total^ •' for North Dakota.  Hence, it was concluded that  resi-
dual oil consumption in North Dakota is accounted for by point sources and
                                   20

that area source residual oil consumption is essentially zero.  This is
confirmed by communications with various state officials familiar with
residual oil usage in North Dakota.
                   (3)  Distillate Oil - Total distillate oil utilized in
North Dakota in 1969 was obtained from Bulletin No. 158 of the North Dakota
State Laboratories Commission   .  This total included kerosene and jet
fuel as well as distillate oil.  Distillate oil consumed by railroads in
North Dakota is not included in this figure.  After subtracting the kero-
sene and jet fuel consumed in the state in 1969, the remaining distillate
oil was apportioned to the following use categories, utilizing Bureau of
                                                / r\ f \
Mines fuel oil consumption data for North Dakota^  ':
                        (a)  Commercial and Institutional Distillate Oil -
The Bureau of Mines fuel oil consumption data did not distinguish between
residential and commercial/institutional usage.  Residential heating re-
quirements were estimated, based on the 1970 Bureau of Census data for
housing units, the number of degree days per year, and the average annual
heating requirements per home.
                             The quantity of residential heat supplied by
natural gas was then subtracted to give residential fuel oil consumption.
The resulting value was subtracted from the total residential, commercial
and institutional fuel oil consumption to obtain the distillate fuel oil
consumed by commercial and institutional establishments in the state.
                             This total was apportioned to the counties
(as well as the four principal metropolitan areas) by the number of whole-
sale plus retail establishments, which was   obtained from the North Dakota
Business and Industrial Development Department   .  These figures were then
adjusted to reflect those establishments NOT being serviced by natural gas.
                             Emissions were calculated by means of the
emission factors presented in McGraw and Duprey's Compilation of Air Pol-
lutant Emission Factors, 1971    .   An average sulfur  content of 0.279 per-
cent was assumed,  based on data from the State Laboratories Department   .
                                    22

-------
                         (b)  Residential Fuel Oil - The state consumption
 of kerosene was  included in this total.  The state usage was apportioned
                                                            (13}
 to the counties  and  the  four major urban areas by population     .  The
 county and city  populations were adjusted to reflect the population NOT
 being serviced by natural gas.
                             Emissions were calculated utilizing the emis-
 sion factors presented in McGraw and Duprey's Compilation of Air Pollutant
 Emission Factors, 1971    .  An average fuel sulfur content of 0.279 per-
 cent was assumed, based  on data from the State Laboratories Commission   .
                         (c)  Industrial Distillate - State totals were
 apportioned to the counties and the four major cities by the number of
 manufacturing establishments after subtracting the industrial point source
 consumption.  Again, these apportioning figures were adjusted to reflect
 those industries NOT being serviced by natural gas.
                             Emissions were calculated using the emission
 factors of McGraw and Duprey
                         (d)  On-Highway Diesel Fuel - Because this category
 is classified as a transportation source, the methodology discussion is
 presented in Section C.2.b.
                         (e)  Off-Highway Diesel Fuel - Because this cate-
 gory is also classified as a transportation source, the methodology dis-
 cussion is presented in Section C.Z.b.
                   (4)  Natural Gas - Natural gas is utilized in 21 coun-
 ties  in North Dakota including Burleigh/Morton, Cass, Grand Forks, and
Ward  counties, which contain the respective metropolitan areas of Bismarck/
Mandan,  Fargo/West Fargo, Grand Forks,  and Minot.  Natural gas consumption
data for 1970 were available by use category (residential, commercial/
 institutional, and industrial) for these areas as well as the counties.
The data were obtained from the three companies (Montana Dakota Utilities
Co., Great Plains Natural Gas, and Northern States Power Co.) supplying
gas to North Dakota^1»
                                   23

-------
                        Emissions were calculated through use of the emis-
 sion  factors presented in McGraw and Duprey's Compilation of Air Pollutant
 Emission Factors  - 1971(20\
                   (5)  Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) - State consumption
                                             (27)
 totals were obtained from the Bureau of Mines     and apportioned by popu-
           (13)
 lation datav    ,  adjusted to reflect those NOT serviced by natural gas.
 Emissions were calculated utilizing the emission factors for domestic and
 commercial propane as presented in McGraw and Duprey's Compilation of Air
 Pollutant Emission Factors - 1971^   .  The emission factor for nitrogen
 oxide was assumed to be 23 pounds per thousand gallons, based on the assump-
 tion that 80 percent of the LPG was utilized by domestic sources and 20
                             (27)
 percent by commercial sources
              b.   Transportation
                   (1)  Gasoline-Powered Motor Vehicles - Urban and rural
 vehicle mile data for 1969 were available by county and for the four major
                  (9)
metropolitan areas   .  It was assumed that 98 percent of the vehicle miles
                                                  (19)
were attributed to gasoline powered motor vehicles     and the emission
 factors presented by McGraw and Duprey     were utilized to obtain county
and city emissions from on-highway gasoline consumption.
                   (2)  Off-Highway Gasoline (Farm Tractors) - Total off-
highway gasoline sold in 1970 (that quantity of gasoline which is tax
                                    (8)
 exempt) was available from the state    and was assumed to be essentially
all consumed by tractors.   Therefore, this fuel was apportioned to the
 counties by crop-acres   .  Emissions were calculated based upon the emis-
sion factors for gasoline powered motor vehicles traveling at 25mph as pre-
sented in McGraw and Duprey's Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors,
1971    .   However,  the values presented in this text were adjusted by a
factor of 12.5 v-m/gal to ob tain units of Ibs pollutant/1000 gallons of
gasoline.
                   (3)  Diesel Powered Motor Vehicles - As stated earlier,
on-highway diesel consumption was derived by utilizing Bureau of Mines
                                   24

-------
 data      to apportion  the  state consumption of distillate fuel oil in 1970
 by  use category.  On-highway diesel consumption using this technique agreed
                                                                      (Q\
 well with state  totals obtained directly from the State Tax Commissionv   .
 The value obtained  from  the state was felt to be more reliable and was
 utilized  in this  study.
                         On-highway diesel fuel was apportioned to the coun-
 ties and  the four metropolitan areas under investigation by motor vehicle
                                                       (9)
 miles obtained from the  North Dakota Highway Department   .  Emissions were
 calculated by means of the emission factors for heavy duty trucks and buses
 with engines built  prior to 1970 as presented in McGraw and Duprey's Com-
 pilation  of Air Pollutant  Emission Factors - 1971    .
                    (4)   Off-Highway Diesel Fuel (Farm Tractors) - As men-
 tioned earlier, off-highway diesel fuel consumption was derived by utili-
                               f o f \
 zing Bureau of Mines statistics     to apportion the state consumption of
 distillate fuel oil in 1970 by use category.  The resulting off-highway
 diesel fuel was assumed  to be essentially all utilized by farm tractors
 and was apportioned to the counties by crop-acres   .  Emission factors
 similar to those  used for  on-highway diesel fuel were utilized here.
                    (5)  Aircraft (Commercial Only) - Emissions from air-
 craft at  the seven major municipal airports were based on the number of
 landing and takeoff cycles (LTO) and aircraft types employed at each loca-
 tion, as  described by McGraw and Duprey^   .  Airline schedules (effective
                     (19)
 dates April 25, 197l)v   ' :for the three commercial airlines operating in
North Dakota (Frontier, North Central, and Northwest Orient)  were utilized
 to determine the annual LTO's per airport and the type of aircraft employed.
 The pertinent data  for aircraft operations are listed in Appendix D.

                    (6)  Railroads - The quantity of fuel oil  utilized by
railroads in North Dakota was obtained from Bureau of Mines data^  '  and
adjusted  to reflect the difference between annual fuel oil sales as reported
                      tnf\                         fQ\
by the Bureau of Mines     and by state statistics^   .   This  value was then
apportioned to counties by track-miles as determined from a recently pub-
 lished detailed map of the state.
                                   25

-------
                      Fuel oil consumption by  railroads in the four
                                                                  (28)
major metropolitan areas was obtained directly from the railroads.
The chief concern in this category was fuel oil consumption utilized for
switching operations as this is the major source of emissions from rail-
roads within the city limits.
                      Emissions were calculated using the emission factors
for railroads as presented in McGraw and Duprey's Compilation of Air
Pollutant Emissions Factors - 1971.   '
                  (7) Evaporative Losses from Gasoline Marketing - Total
gasoline sold both for highway and off-highway use in 1970 was available
from the State Tax Commissioner's Office.  The quantity of highway gaso-
line marketed was apportioned to the counties and cities under study by
total vehicle miles as obtained from the Highway Department.   Off-highway
gasoline marketed was apportioned to the counties by farm acres.   The
emissions were calculated based upon 21 pounds of hydrocarbons for each
1000 gallons of gasoline sold.
              c.  Solid Waste Disposal
                  The state of North Dakota does not have a recent survey
of solid waste disposal available at this time.   However, an earlier report
                                                      (12)
and discussions with State Health Department personnel     indicated that
at least 75 percent of the state population is served by sanitary landfills.
The larger towns with refuse collection facilities generally have landfill
operations,  while considerable on-site open burning takes place in rural
areas.   There are no municipal incinerators in the state and no other in-
cinerators were found which constituted point sources.   Because of the lack
of better data,  it was necessary to treat solid  waste disposal as an area
source.
                  The OAP-suggested value of 7 pounds per person per day
of municipal refuse generation from residential,  commercial,  and institu-
tional sources was assumed.   It was further assumed that 75 percent  of this
refuse (5.25 Ib/person per day) was landfilled and that  the remaining 25
percent (1.75 Ib/person per day) was distributed such that two thirds was
open-burned  and one-third was incinerated.

                                 26

-------
                  All of the four metropolitan areas of interest in the
survey, Bismarck/Mandan, Fargo/West Fargo, Grand Forks, and Minot, are
served by municipal collection facilities and landfills.  Further, they
all have ordinances against open-burning.  Therefore, it was assumed that
all residential waste (5.5 pounds/person per day, reference 20) was land-
filled.  The remaining 1.5 pounds/person per day was assumed to be split
equally between landfills and commercial-institutional incinerators.
                  Emissions were calculated by means of the emission factors
of McGraw and Duprey     and assuming that multiple chamber incinerators
were used.
               d.  Process Losses
                  (1) Grain Elevators
                      As mentioned earlier, some grain elevators did not
return questionnaires.  These non-respondents were treated as area sources
in their respective counties.   Average emissions for both the country and
terminal elevators were determined from those questionnaires that were
returned.   The appropriate emission was then assigned to the non-responding
elevators on the basis of the elevator type,  i.e. country or terminal.
                  (2) Dry Cleaning
                      McGraw and Duprey     have estimated that hydrocarbon
emissions from dry cleaning operations in cold climates,  such as that of
North Dakota, average 2.7 pounds per person per day.   This value was  used
for the determination of emissions from this  source for the counties  and
four major urban areas of North Dakota.

                   (3) Surface Coating Operations
                      This category includes chiefly the application of
paints and varnishes  for protective and/or decorative purposes.  No state
surface coating consumption data were available  for North Dakota, but a
national  total for paint and varnish was obtained from the U.S. Paint and
                   (24)
Varnish Association.   ' From this total and the national population, it was
                                   27

-------
determined that per capita consumption of paint and varnish is 0.0243
tons/person per year.  This value was used with North Dakota population
                                                                        iph-
                                                                            (24)
    (13)
data   ' to determine the paint and varnish used in the pertinent geograph-
ical areas in the state.  Information from the Paint and Varnish Association
indicated that the solvent content of these coatings averaged about 62.5
percent.  In determining the hydrocarbon emissions from solvent evaporation,
it was assumed that all of the solvent was hydrocarbon and that it all evap -
orated.
                                   28

V.  COMPUTER PRINTOUT
    The detailed results of the emissions inventory are presented in the
computer printout which is enclosed in a separate binder.
    The printout is arranged by Air Quality Control Region, and for each
region, there is a point source printout and an area source printout.
The point source printout presents detailed data and also summaries of
annual emissions by source category for each political jurisdiction
(county) within the region; these summaries are tabbed, "#8".  Similarly,
the area source printout presents detailed data and also summaries of
annual emissions by source category for each political jurisdiction
(county) within the region; these summaries are tabbed, "#18".
    Detailed notes on the data provided in the printout are now pre-
sented.  They are arranged to follow the sequence of the printout sheets
and should be read in conjunction with general explanations given in
the Methodology section of this report.  Numbered tabs are attached to
the printout pages to indicate the first page of each listing.
    A.  POINT SOURCE PRINTOUT

            a.  Standard Industrial Classifications (SIC) and Process
Codes were assigned to each source as shown in Table 9.  If more than
one source had the same classification and process code, consecutive
Site numbers were assigned to such sources.
            b.  The counties corresponding to the Political Jurisdiction
numbers listed are shown in Table 10.
            c.  Each source was classified by Type as either Process,
Boiler or Solid Waste.  With the exception of flares and gas engines
                                  29

associated with petroleum and natural gas production, all fuel combustion
sources were considered boilers.  The flares and engines were considered
processes (Code 08) and were assigned to the Process type classification.
        3.  Listing #3
            a.  The Shifts/Day value is the ratio of the reported total
operating hours from listing #2 to 2920 (the total hours in one-year
of one-shift per day operation).
            b.  The Use Factor is the ratio of the maximum process weight
rate (Ib./hr.) to the normal (or average) process weight rate (Ib./hr.)
for process sources.  For combustion sources, the Use Factor is the ratio
of the boiler capacity (10  BTU/hr.) to the average heat input (10  BTU/hr.),
The latter value is the product of the total fuel consumed and the fuel
heating value divided by the total operating time.
        4.  Listing #4
            This listing is self-explanatory and no further comments will
be included here.
        5.  Listing #5
            This listing gives the totals of fuels consumed during the
year within the region.  Note, for Region No. 172, three tables are
presented for each fuel.   Regional totals are obtained by adding the
values from all of these tables.
        6.  Listing #6
            a.   Computer Calculated emissions were made only for fuel
combustion sources, using the fuel totals and emission factor set num-
bers indicated.   Solid waste and process sources were hand calculated.
These hand calculations were based on annual solid waste and process
totals together with emission factors from McGraw and Duprey (Reference
17,  Appendix A).
            b.   The Uncontrolled emission value is the sum of the com-
puter calculated and hand calculated values.
                                    34

-------
            c.  The Controlled emission value is the uncontrolled emis-
sion value minus the product of the Control Efficiency and the Controlled
value.
            d.  The Device Identification numbers correspond to the
control devices listed in Table 11 of this report.
            e.  The Allowable particulate and S0~ emission values are
those permitted by North Dakota Regulation No. 82 (Reference 18, Appen-
dix A) .
        7.  Listing #7
            The notes for Listing #6 are applicable to this listing, but
neither control devices nor allowable emissions are considered.
        8.  Listing #8
            This listing gives total emission? in tons per year for each
political jurisdiction (county) within the region.  The totals are pre-
sented by source category and fuel totals are included for combustion
sources.  Refuse totals are presented for each of the solid waste cate-
gories.  The industrial-commercial-institutional fuel combustion source
of political jurisdiction 29 (Morton County), Region 172, in the "Other"
category is a petroleum refining operation which consumes large amounts
of high-sulfur content process oil and gas.

         9.   Listing #9
             a.  Allowable  Emissions  - The allowable emissions  of parti-
 culates and SO- based  on the federal  model standards  (Reference 19,
 Appendix A) are presented  for  all regulated point  sources  in North  Dakota.
             b.  The Zone numbers  specify whether  the  point  source  is  lo-
 cated in zone 13  or zone 14  of the Universal Transverse  Mercator (UTM)
 coordinate  system.

        Dear Sir:

              The Air  Pollution  Control  Program of the North Dakota State Department
        of Health requests your  cooperation in providing the information asked for on
        the enclosed questionnaire  concerning the operation of your facilities.  The
        data provided will be  evaluated  and translated into emissions of pollutants to
        the atmosphere and added to the  total emissions from all sources in the State
        of North Dakota.  This source  information will enable the Department to develop
        air pollution  control  programs necessary for compliance with requirements of
        the Federal Clean Air Amendments  of 1970.

              This emission survey  is being conducted under provisions of Section 23-
        25-04 of Chapter 23-25 of the North Dakota Century Code.  Information from
        this survey will be used according  to the  confidentiality provision in Sec-
        tion 23-25-06 of Chapter 23-25 of the North Dakota Century Code or Sec-
        tion 114(c) of the Clean Air Amendments  of 1970 concerning the divulgence of
        methods or processes entitled to  protection as trade secrets.

              If you require additional information or assistance regarding the
        questionnaire, you may contact Mr.  Darwin  W.  Schultz of this office, telephone
        224-2387.  Some receiving the questionnaire may also be contacted by telephone
        by a representative of G.C.A., who  is  assisting this Department in the collec-
        tion of emission inventory  data.

              We would appreciate the return  of  the questionnaire by May 7,  1971.   Your
        cooperation and expeditious completion of  the  inventory forms  is urgently
        requested.

              Thank you.

                                                   Sincerely,
                                                  ^	  _
