1.0 RESOURCES GENERAL
The Implementation Plan for abatement, prevention, and control of
air pollution within the State of Alaska will be of little use unless
there are adequate resources available to execute the tasks outlined. This
section presents a summary of these tasks, the resources available and the
resources required to fully implement the plan.
1-1
-------
2.0 RESOURCE APPLICATION
2.1 PROGRAM OBJECTIVE SUMMARY
It shall be the objective of the State of Alaska to ensure that
Federal Ambient Air quality Standards are (net within this State by
implementing and operating a Statewide Air Pollution Abatement Prevention
and Control Program. This program is designed to elicit the combined
resources and talents of local and State personnel in an integrated assault
on air pollution.
2.2 WORK STATEMENT SUMMARY
The task of air pollution abatement prevention and control may be
subdivided into functional units or areas of responsibility which will
facilitate the implementation of the plan as follows:
2.2.1 Management Services
2.2.1.1 Policy, P/R, Strategies, etc. Management Services
At present there are three separate Air Pollution Control Agencies
within the State of Alaska. The State Department of Environmental Conser-
vation (DEC) has the overall responsibility for ensuring that the Federal
Ambient Air Quality Standards are met. This responsibility can be defined
as that of supervision of local air pollution control agency activities
where such agencies exist and of actually administering and operating an
air quality control program in those areas of the State where there are no
local programs. The DEC management shall review and adopt rules and
regulations applicable to the entire State of Alaska; ensure enforcement
of these rules or of rules having an equivalent effect promulgated by the
local districts, and coordinate with the management of the local air
pollution control agencies on such matters as financing, control activities,
statewide standards, data storage and record keeping; releasing information
to the public; and other problems associated with the operation of an air
pollution control program.
The. management of the local air pollution control agencies shall be
responsible for the procurement of adequate technical, professional and
support personnel, scheduling of inspections and field patrols, arranging
2-1
-------
for and conducting public hearings as necessary and supervising the
enforcement of the rules and regulations adopted by the local and State
air pollution control agencies. Proposed rule changes will require review
and evaluation as new technology warrants an update on emissions limitations.
Administrative procedures for the processing of permit applications,
issuing notices of permit approvals or rejections, processing request for
variances and issuing notices of the approval or denial of these requests
must be established.
It can be anticipated that the manpower requirements for this task
will decrease as the programs become operational.
2.2.1.2 Staff Training
New personnel employed by the air pollution control agencies will
require some training and orientation in air pollution control work, the
objectives of the Authority and the plans for achieving these objectives.
It shall be the responsibility of the Chief Air Pollution Control Officer
of the air pollution control agencies to see that all personnel are fully
briefed on the operations of the agency and are fully prepared to execute
their assigned tasks. These task briefings will include but not be limited
to the Authority jurisdictions, Rules and Regulations of the Authority and
Federal Ambient Air Quality Standards.
Technical training programs sponsored by the Environmental Protection
Agency's (EPA) Office of Air Programs (OAP) and the associated instructional
materials available through EPA will be utilized where possible to facilitate
this effort.
2.2.1.3 Coordination with the Environmental Protection Agency
It shall be the responsibility of management in the Department of
Environmental Conservation, primarily, to communicate with and coordinate
with the Environmental Protection Agency in order to keep abreast of
changes in Federal policy, standards and rules. Coordination by the DEC
with EPA will also be required for processing grant requests for Federal
financial assistance to the State and/or local air pollution control agencies
and for making revisions to the Implementation Plan. Coordination with the
EPA on a State and Local level will be required to control and abate
emissions from sources under the sole jurisdiction of the EPA within the
2-2
-------
State of Alaska. Management of the appropriate Air Pollution Control
Agencies should review the latest technical announcements published by EPA
on analysis methods and technological developments for the abatement of
various types of air contaminant emissions.
2.2.1.4 Administrative and Clerical Support
This function entails the generation of interoffice and intra-
office communications, typing and reproduction of reports, maintenance of
files and other activities in support of the Air Pollution Control Agencies.
Permit and Variance applications must be received, logged in and dispersed
for proper disposition.
2.2.2 Engineering Services
2.2.2.1 Reports, New Legislation, etc.
Activities of each APCA during specified reporting periods must be
summarized and presented in. the form of reports to the management of that
Agency. These reports will contain, as an example, control actions, the
average ambient air contaminant levels of the area during the month, new
analysis methods developed, compilations of test data from various sources
tested or budget expenditure summaries.
As data are acquired from each source required to monitor its emission
levels, these data may upon review and evaluation necessitate a change in
the rules and regulations. Engineering will draft proposed changes to the
established Rules and Regulations or new procedures to facilitate the
enforcement of existing Rules and Regulations for the abatement and control
of Air contaminants.
2.2.2.2 Permit System/Source Testing
2.2.2.2.1 Registration of Existing Sources
All sources emitting in excess of 5 tons per year of air contaminants
except those refered to in Section 2.2.2.2.2 must be registered with the
appropriate APCA. Data submitted by the owner/operators of these sources
will be reviewed by an employee of the Agency for the purpose of making
emission estimates to ascertain if the facility is in compliance with
State and Local emission limitations.
2-3
-------
2.2.2.2.2 Granting of Operation Permits
Participate matter sources in excess of 25 tons of sulfur oxides and/
or 100 tons of any other pollutants are required to submit Permit to
Operate applications. Engineering services will be required to review the
plans and specifications contained in these applications to ascertain if the
equipment contains provisions for abatement of emissions to comply with the
emission limitations set out in Section ISAAC 50.050.110 of the proposed
Rules and Regulations. An on-site inspection may be conducted to verify
the accuracy of the application materials.
2.2.2.2.3 Negotiation of Variances
If a Permit to Operate application is rejected either because the
equipment is shown to or believed to exceed the emission limitations of
Sections ISAAC 50.050.110 of the Proposed Rules and Regulations, the
operator may alter his equipment and resubmit his application or negotiate
with the appropriate APCA for a Variance to Operate in violation of the
established Rules and Regulations. This process will require conferences
between the operator and the engineering service personnel to discuss the
schedules for eventual compliance by the operator with the established
Rules and Regulations.
2.2.2.2.4 Evaluation of Stack Sampling Data
Source operators may be required to submit stack sampling data as a
part of the Permit to Operate. Engineering services will be required to
witness these tests and/or evaluate the data acquired.
2.2.2.2.5 Authority to Construct New Sources
Persons desiring to build a new source or modify an existing source
are required to apply for Authority to Construct which contains detailed
plans and operational specifications for the proposed facility. The
appropriate APCA will review these plans, make emission estimates and issue
an Authority to Construct if the proposed construction is believed to be
capable, when completed of complying with the existing Rules and Regula-
tions. Periodic non operational inspections of the construction progress
will be conducted to assure adherence to construction plans.
2-4
-------
2.2.2.2.6 Issuance of Permit to Operate New Sources
When construction of anew source has been completed, upon notification
by the operator that he is ready for final inspection, a representative of
the appropriate APCA will, prior to the granting of a Permit to Operate,
witness the operation of that source and its emission test.
2.2.2.3 Air Quality Surveillance
Engineering talents are required to supervise and direct the technical
efforts of the Air Quality surveillance programs conducted by each APCA. An
ambient air quality surveillance network must be designed in that the types
of equipment required to acquire the data and the proper locations for
these instruments must be established. Some personnel training will be
required where the monitoring equipment is to be operated and maintained
at a remote site by part-time employees of the Authority or volunteers.
Data acquisition or retrieval schedules shall be specified and
provisions for collection of these data established.
Data analysis methods specified in the Federal Register and/or the
Implementation Plan shall be detailed and explained to the technical
personnel assigned to conduct analysis of the data acquired.
Ambient air surveillance data acquired during each monitoring period
shall be examined and evaluated to ascertain if the implemented control
strategies and emission limitations are achieving their intended purposes.
2.2.2.4 Special Studies
Air quality surveys within the State of Alaska have indicated that
the particulate levels within the State are quite high. In order to
develop a control strategy for the abatement'of particulates, studies of the
problem will be conducted. These studies are intended to identify the
sources of the problem, the nature of the particulates and provide data
which can be used in developing programs to abate the particulate contami-
nant. Engineering talents are needed to supervise and direct these studies.
2.2.3 Enforcement Services
2-5
-------
2.2.3.1 Scheduled Inspections
Sources which have been granted Permits to Operate may be inspected
on a regular basis or at random in order to ensure continued compliance
with the permit provisions and emission limitations. It shall be the
responsibility of the management of the appropriate APCA establish an
inspection policy for each source commensurate with the nature of that
source.
2.2.3.2 Field Patrol
Visual standards may be enforced by persons trained to observe and
read smoke emissions with the aid of a Ringelmann Chart or other equivalent
methods of determining opacity. This task may be assigned to public
officials such as firemen and policemen.or it may be accomplished by
agents of the appropriate APCA on Field Patrol. The frequency of the
patrols, required to accomplish the objectives of the Air Pollution Control
Prevision and Abatement Program, will be established by considerations of
the nature of the problem and the resources available.
2.2.3.3 Prosecutions
Sources which owners or operators have been found to be in violation
of the Rules and Regulations shall be subject to fines as prescribed by
law and/or imprisonment. It shall be the responsibility of agents of the
appropriate Air Pollution Control Authority for the area in which the
violation occurs to cause the person believed to be responsible for the
alleged violation to answer to the Authority for the alleged violation.
2.2.3.3.1 Issuance of Citations
An inspector or a person on field patrol who observes a source which
in his opinion, has violated some section of the Rules and Regulations
shall issue to the owner or operator of such source a citation which gives
him notice that he has been accused of a violation of a specific section/
paragraph of the Rules and Regulations. The citation shall provide a time
and place for the person cited to appear and answer to the charge.
2.2.3.3.2 Assessment of Penalties
Owners or operator of sources found to be in violation of sections
of the Rules and Regulations either by judicial actions or by admissions
2-6
-------
shall be assessed function shall be discharged by the joint actions of the
appropriate judicial agency and agents of teh appropriate APCA.
2.2.3.3.3 Procurement of Injunctions
When an officer of the appropriate APCA deems the emissions from a
source to be of such a nature as to necessitate immediate cessation of the
operation to prevent immanent and substantial endangerment to the health
and welfare of the public in the area or when a source is found to be contin-
ually in violation of the provisions of the Rules and Regulations, the
authority may seek a court injunction to enjoin the operator from further
operations which cause to be or release air contaminants into the atmos-
phere. This task will entail the preparation of documents which contain the
justification for the judicial relief sought.
2.2.3.3.4 Appeal Hearings
When a Source which is cited for a violation of the Rules and Regula-
tions, denied a Permit to Operate, or denied a Request for Variance, chooses
to appeal the decision of the appropriate APCA that agency shall be
required to grant a hearing to the source and present justification for
its actions at this hearing. Engineering and technical testimony may be
required.
2.2.4 Technical Services
2.2.4.1 Operation of Monitoring Networks
Each APCA establish a network of monitoring stations to acquire
ambient air quality data. These stations shall be operated by technicans
from APCA or by a local resident trained by the agency to see that the
monitoring equipment is in operation and the data samples are collected in
accordance with the prescribed schedule and procedures.
2.2.4.2 Instrumentation Calibration and Maintenance
Each APCA shall be responsible for the calibration and maintenance
of the instrumentation used to monitor the ambient air quality and conduct
source tests. Maintenance and calibration schedules shall be established
as required to ensure the acquisition of data of sufficient quality to
accomplish the objective of the programs. Technicians working under the
direction and supervision of engineering personnel will be utilized to
accomplish these tasks.
2-7
-------
2.2.4.3 Laboratory Operations
Technical services will be required to establish and maintain
laboratory facilities in each APCA to analyze the data acquired during
source tests and monitoring operations. Laboratory equipment must be
calibrated and maintained, analysis reagents prepared and chemical analyses
conducted as the samples are collected. Test procedures outlined by EPA
will be followed where possible.
2.2.4.4 Special Studies
Instrumentation utilized in the collection and analysis of data for
the Special Studies Programs conducted throughout the State shall be
operated and maintained by technicians under the direction and supervision
of engineering personnel. Data acquired during these tasks shall be
analyzed and processed in a manner similar to that utilized for data
acquired during the execution of the ambient air surveillance and source
testing tasks.
2.2.4.5 Data Processing
Test results obtained from analyses of air samples and source tests
acquired during a test period will require compilation for presentation in
reports and storage in the Air Pollution Data Banks. There may be computer-
ized storage to facilitate easy access to and/or transmission of data to
other authorities within the State or to the Environmental Protection Agency.

-------
3.0 RESOURCE REQUIREMENTS
3.1 GROUND RULES FOR MANPOWER REQUIREMENT ESTIMATES
It was determined that the standard manpower models are not applicable
to the situation in the State of Alaska. Therefore, an analysis of the
requirements on a task-by-task basis was performed. These manpower
estimates reflect this analysis.
3.1.1 Existing Sources
3.1.1.1 Registration of Existing Sources - 2 Hours per Source
Time estimate includes the time required to record, review, and
compute emission estimates from each source description submitted to the
appropriate APCA to ascertain which sources will require permits to operate.
3.1.1.2 Granting of Operation Permits - 16 Hours per Source
Sources emitting air pollutants in excess of the prescribed limits*
are required to submit Permit to Operate applications. These applications
must be reviewed and the equipment may be inspected. This function may
consume 16 hours, depending upon the location of the source, the complete-
ness of the application and the results of the inspection.
3.1.1.3 Negotiation of Variances
Applications for Permits to Operate which have been rejected may be
resubmitted after negotiations between the owner or operator of the source
and the appropriate APCA for the granting of a variance to one or more of
the Rules and Regulations. This process may take conferences to discuss
those schedules for eventual compliance by the owner or operator with the
established Rules and Regulations.
3.1.1.4 Evaluation of Stack Sampling Data - 16 Hours per Source
Data acquisitions from stack sampling operations submitted to the
authority by various source operations must be evaluated. This task may
entail on-the-spot witnessing of the data acquisition procedures on a
random basis.
* 25 tons per year for sulfur oxides and particulate matter
100 tons per year for hydrocarbons, carbon monoxice, nitrogen oxides
3-1
-------
3.1.2 New Sources
3.1.2.1 Granting of Authority to Construct - 80 Hours per Source
Applications for construction of new sources must be submitted to
the appropriate APCA for review and evaluation. Estimated emissions will
be calculated to ascertain if the proposed construction will comply with
existing regulations prior to the issuance of a construction permit.
3.1.2.2 Issuance of Permit to Operate New Source - 20 Hours per Source
A representative of the appropriate APCA will, prior to the granting
of a Permit to Operate to a new source, witness the operation of that
source and its emission tests. Following this operation, a permit may
then be granted.
3.1.3 Enforcement Services
3.1.3.1 Scheduled Inspections
An agent of the appropriate APCA will travel to appropriate sources
to ascertain if the abatement equipment is in operation and in good working
order. The time required will vary depending upon the nature and location
of the source inspected.
3.1.3.2 Enforcement
Agents of the appropriate APCA will make field patrols to detect
visual violations of the established Rules and Regulations and prosecute
the offenders as provided for in the appropriate statutes.
3.1.3.3 Source Testing - 80-100 Hours per Source
Source testing is a time-consuming operation which may require the-
transportation of men and equipment to the source location. Actual test
setup time will vary with the nature of the source, i.e., its construction
features, output characteristics, etc. Travel to remote test locations
will require more time.
3.1.4 Technical Services
Manpower estimates required to perform the technical services have
been made for each APCA within the State assuming that the operations
will be essentially independent. This assumption involves the establishment
3-2
-------
and operation of chemical analysis laboratories in each agency which will
be utilized for analysis of air samples collected within its jurisdiction.
It should be pointed out, however, that considerable savings in manpower
efficiency can be realized via the establishment of a single laboratory
for the analysis of all air samples collected within the State.
The time estimates are based on typical sample retrieval times and
average State operations in an analysis laboratory and do not contain
allowances for travel to and from the points of data acquisition.
3.2 GROUND RULES FOR COST ESTIMATES
3.2.1 Department of Environmental Conservation Program
3.2.1.1 Salaries
The salaries for the Alaska program office as exhibited in the
ensuing schedules are developed from the manpower requirements stated in
other sections of this report. The salaries are based on current salaries
of personnel already assigned to the program and the anticipated salaries
for those people to be acquired at a later date. These anticipated
salaries are based on salaries paid to individuals in comparable positions
in other states, plus a consideration for the higher cost of living in
Alaska. The salaries include those having both State employees and
personnel assigned to the State from EPA. It is anticipated that an
average of 3% per year increase in salary will be given to all employees
in the State agency. Fringe benefits, which are a function of the
salaries paid, are calculated at 17% of the gross payroll. This is in
keeping with the fringe benefits currently being paid by the State of
Alaska.
3.2.1.2 Office Equipment and Supplies
Office equipment consists of those items of furniture and equipment
necessary to equip offices for use by personnel of the agency. The cost
estimates for these items (Tables 6A, 7A and 8A) are to equip the offices
needed for additional personnel only. Office supplies are those materials
expended by the personnel and the estimated costs are based on current
budgets considering the anticipated growth of the agency.
3-3
-------
3.2.1.3 Travel
Travel is based on requirements for personnel to visit outlying and
sometimes remote stations and also to communities within the State as part
of the overall surveillance. This travel is necessary due to the broad
expanses of the State of Alaska and, in some cases, the lack of accessi-
bility by any travel other than air. It is also anticipated that travel
costs for the agencies within the State of Alaska will be higher than
normal due to travel requirements to the contiguous 48 States.
3.2.1.4 Other Operating Expenses
These expenses are a function of the growth of the office as related
to its present budget.
3.2.1.5 Capital Equipment
The technical equipment for the State under Technical Services
(Tables 6, 7 and 8) is that capital equipment which has been determined
necessary to operate the State Surveillance Program and the Episode
Avoidance equipment as indicated in the Surveillance and Episode Sections
of this Implementation Plan (I.P.). The capital equipment under Engineering
Services represents the costs of two EPA sampling trains and two ASME
sampling trains. The EPA sampling trains are required due to the more
sophisticated type of source sampling. It is also assumed that the ASME
trains will have to be replaced every two years, and, therefore, acquisi-
tion of new trains has been scheduled accordingly throughout the 5-year
period. It is anticipated that all source sampling performed by agency
personnel will be performed by the DEC: therefore, source test equipment
will be acquired by the DEC only.
3.2.1.6 Contract Funds
Contract funds under Engineering Services (Tables 6, 7 and 8) are
set up in anticipation of incidental studies required to fund programs
which are deemed advisable by the State agency to study in further depth
the particulars of the State air pollution problem.
3-4
-------
3.2.2 Tri-Borough Agency
3.2.2.1 Salaries (Table 7A)
The Tri-Borough Agency is closer to its full staff of personnel
and, therefore, all salaries are based on current levels with the exception
of one engineer, who has been indicated as a future requirement. These
salaries are increased by an average of 3% per year as in the State agency.
3.2.2.2 Office Equipment (Table 7A)
There are currently in use in the City of Anchorage by the Tri-Borough
agency adequate office facilities and equipment. Inasmuch as this agency
is relatively new, projected repair and replacement costs during the next
five years are expected to be minimal.
3.2.2.3 Travel (Table 7A)
Travel requirements for the Tri-Borough Air Pollution Control District
personnel are based on the need to collect samples from various locations
within the Boroughs, conduct source inspections and attend meetings within
the State for the purpose of coordination with the DEC. It will be
necessary to travel to the contiguous 48 states to attend seminars and
training programs conducted by EPA.
3.2.2.4 Other Expenses (Table 7A)
Other expenses are based on the current rate of expenditure as
requested in the Federal Grant Application for Fiscal 1972 with increases
according to anticipated growth.
3.2.2.5 Capital Equipment (Table 9)
Capital equipment for this agency has, for the most part, already
been procured; therefore, none is scheduled in the upcoming 5-year period,
as indicated in the schedules.
3.2.2.6 Contract Funds (Table 7)
The current cost estimates provide for contract funds for two source
tests per year. This agency is currently performing all other required
tasks with its own personnel. Future needs may be supplied through
coordination with the DEC.
3-5
-------
3.2.3 North Star Borough Agency
3.2.3.1 Salaries, Travel and Operating Expenses (Table 8A)
The operating costs arrived at for the North Star Borough were
arrived at in essentially the same manner as were the costs for the State
Agency. The two additional engineers in this Agency are assumed to be at
the same level as the new engineer for the State level. Contract funds
have been included for the procurement of two source tests per year.
3.2.3.2 Capital Equipment (Table 9)
Capital equipment under Technical Services is as required in the
Surveillance Program and the Episode Avoidance Plan.
3.2.3.3 Office Equipment (Table 8A)
Office materials and equipment for the North Star Borough Agency
will also have to be acquired. Cost estimates are based on projected
manpower requirements.
3.2.4 Summary
The costs presented in the following tables represent the optimum
air pollution program for the State of Alaska and would allow a complete
and comprehensive enforcement and surveillance system for the State, as
required in the Clean Air Act (1970) and Code of Federal Regulations. It
was considered in the development of these costs that there would be
frequent and complementary interactions between the State and the local
agencies in order to maintain an efficient statewide air pollution control
program.
3.3 SUMMARY OF SOURCES
Emission inventory studies have indicated that there are approxi-
mately 151 sources of air contamination within the State of Alaska which
will require registration in that they are emitting in excess of five tons
of air contaminants of one sort or another per year. Only a fraction of
these sources will require operation permits in that the total emission
levels of most sources are less than that established as an upper limit
beyond which operation permits are required. A tabulation of sources by
region location which fall within the jurisdiction of either the local or
State Air Pollution Control agencies is presented in Table 1.
3-6
-------
3.4 SYSTEM STARTUP AND CONTINUING OPERATION COST ESTIMATES
3.4.1 System Startup Source Registration
and Permit Approval
3.4.1.1 Manpower Estimates
Sources deemed to emit air contaminants in excess of the criteria
levels for registration and that established for operation without a
permit shown in Table 1 will require processing in order to initiate the
air pollution control program. An estimate of the total manpower require-
ments in manhours (MH) and manmonths (MN) for the initiation of the program
is presented in Table 2.
The work load for the existing sources can be expected to decrease
after all sources have been registered and Permits to Operate have been
granted. However, the continued operation of the program and the
permitting of new sources will require manpower as shown in Table 2,
Paragraph B.
3.4.1.1.1 State of Alaska Programs
The Department of Environmental Conservation will be responsible
for the administration and operation of an air pollution abatement and
control program in all areas of the State with the exception of Area 08,
for which the Tri-Borough Agency is responsible, and that portion of
Area 09 for which the North Star Borough Agency is responsible. Manpower
estimates for the execution of this task are shown in Table 3. Projec-
tions for future operations are based on an estimated increase in sources
and changes in existing sources.
3.4.1.1.2 North Star Borough
The North Star Borough Air Pollution Control District located in
Fairbanks, Alaska, is in its formative stage. There is not at present an
ongoing air pollution control program in the Borough. The manpower
estimates for this Agency (see Table 4) are based upon the number of
sources within the area of its jurisdiction which will require registra-
tion and control.
3-7
-------
3.4.1.1.3 Tri-Borough Air Pollution Control District
There is currently in existence in the Anchorage area an Air Pollu-
tion Control Agency which has completed the initial startup phases.
Sources within the jurisdiction of this Agency have been registered and
granted permission to operate. Manpower estimates for this Agency were
based on the existing work force (see Table 5).
3.4.1.2 Equipment Requirements
The equipment requirements is that equipment which is necessary to
bring Alaska air pollution control activities to their full complement as
expressed in this Plan. This would include capital equipment required for
both the Air Surveillance and the Episode Plans. It also includes necessary
office and laboratory equipment which has not previously been acquired.
3.4.1.2.1 State Facilities
The Department of Environmental Conservation will procure the
equipment necessary to establish the air surveillance network throughout
the State with the exception of those areas where local air pollution
control agencies exist. This equipment is as stated in the Air Surveillance
section of this Plan. The DEC will also procure the necessary source
sampling equipment to perform all source testing not contracted for by
the local agencies or by the owners of the sources.
3.4.1.2.2 North Star Borough
The North Star Borough Air Pollution Control Agency will procure
that equipment necessary to establish a surveillance program in the North
Star Region. These requirements are as outlined in the Air Surveillance
section of this Plan. It is also anticipated that a small chemistry
laboratory will be established within the Agency.
3.4.1.2.3 Tri-Borough Agency
This Agency is already established, and it is considered that no
additional equipment will be required.
3.4.1.3 Costs
The costs for startup of the statewide air pollution programs are
as shown in Tables 6 and 7. It is considered that there will be no
3-8
-------
reduction in manpower after startup as the maintenance of the program
will require this level of effort.
The equipment costs are based on verbal quotes from various vendors
of the equipment listed. There are no replacement costs considered for
the equipment as the expected life will be at least five years.
3.4.2 Continuing Operations
3.4.2.1 Manpower Estimates
Once the program has been initiated by registration of existing
sources and Permits to Operate are granted as required, a steady State
mode of operation will be entered into. Manpower estimates for this type
of operation are summarized in Paragraph D of Table 2. The following
paragraphs show the rationale for the estimates presented in Table 2.
3.4.2.1.1 Statewi de Operations
The DEC's responsibility for the overall supervision and operation
of an air quality control program for the State of Alaska plus the
construction of new sources will necessitate a continuous effort which
should not be significantly affected by the change in the operation from
a startup to steady State mode. Manpower resources formerly used to
*
review permit applications and grant variances will be required for
continued surveillance, special studies and coordination with the local
and Federal agencies. Other factors which have been considered in
projecting the manpower requirements of the DEC, shown in Table 3C, are
the scheduled emission inventory update exercise and the effect it may
have on the need for a revision of the Rules and Regulations for Air
Pollution Control and Abatement within the State.
3.4.2.1.2 Tri-Borough Air Pollution Control District
This agency is essentially in a steady State operation mode. The
manpower projections shown in Table 5 reflect some modification to the
current program to incorporate the provisions of the Ambient Air Surveil-
lance Plan and coordination with DEC and EPA.
3.4.2.1.3 North Star Air Pollution Control District
Manpower projections (Table 4) for this District when operating in
a steady State mode are based primarily upon the incorporation of the
3-9
-------
features of the Implementation Plan as presented. Allowances were made
for changes due to the acquisition of results from the Special Studies
conducted within the area and for updating the emission inventory every
two years.
3.4.2.2 Equipment
It is difficult at this time to identify additional equipment
needed for the continuation of the Alaska Air Pollution Program. It is
not practical, however, to expect the Program to continue for a period of
five years without some requirements arising during this period; there-
fore, monies have been put into the projections to take into account these
unidentified requirements.
3.4.2.3 Costs
There is no anticipated growth in the size of the Program;
therefore, the costs projected beyond 1973 are to maintain the program
at the 1973 level. The growth in costs is only a reflection of rising
costs during the five-year period.

4.0 RESOURCES CURRENTLY AVAILABLE
4.1 MANPOWER/ORGANIZATIONS/POWERS
The newly created Department of Environmental Conservation has the
primary responsibility for the operation of an supervision of all
Environmental Programs within the State of Alaska. This task formerly
was assigned to the Environmental Health Division of the Department of
Health and Welfare within the DEC is the Department of Water and Air
Quality. Under the Control of the Department of Water and Air Quality
is the General Engineering Section and this section is in turn responsi-
ble for the Air Quality Control Program. The only Air Pollution Control
Program capable of being characterized as established and operating is
that conducted by the Tri-Borough Air Pollution Control District with
offices in the City of Anchorage. The following paragraphs describe
these organizations, their areas of jurisdiction, general powers and the
support available from other governmental agencies.
4.1.1 Department of Environmental Conservation
This Department was created by SB75. Its principal executive officer
is the Commissioner of Environmental Conservation. Inasmuch as the Depart-
ment has been in existence for less than one year, it is still within its
formative stages; no formalized organization structure is available. The
Department is expected to employ approximately 60 persons when its forma-
tion is complete.
The DEC through the Air Quality Control Program Office has primary
jurisdiction for the operation of all air pollution control programs in Air
Quality Areas 009 (excluding the North Star Borough), 010 and Oil of the
State of Alaska where there are no local air pollution control agencies
established or planned. Its responsibilities include the supervision of
local air pollution control agencies where such agencies are in existence.
The authority of the DEC does not extend to Federal sources located within
its jurisdiction but all federal sources must comply with applicable state
and local regulation.
The Commissioner of Environmental Conservation reports directly to
the Governor and has the power to request the assistance of other State
departments as necessary to accomplish the objectives of the Department.
4-1
-------
Powers granted to the DEC are enumerated in Chapter 46, Article 2,
of the Alaska Statutes. These powers are deemed adequate to accomplish
the stated purpose of the Department, given the support of other departments
within the State and the cooperation of the local air pollution control
(minicipal and borough) agencies.
4.1.2 Fairbanks North Star Borough Agency
The Fairbanks North Star Borough Pollution Control Commission has
been recently formed to serve the North Star Borough, which is located
within Air Quality Region 009. The Commission consists of seven (7)
voting members selected from the community which it serves. This commission
was responsible for the creation of the Office of Pollution Control headed
by the Pollution Control Officer. No formalized organization structure has
been established. The current projections are for this office to acquire
four (4) additional employees who will conduct the air pollution control
program adopted by the Fairbanks North Star Borough Pollution Control
Commission.
The Pollution Control Office within the Fairbanks North Star
Borough has jurisdiction over all sources of air contaminants located
withi'n the North Star Borough with the exception of those sources under
the jurisdiction of EPA (Federal Sources).
The Borough Pollution Control Commission has been granted all powers
required to:
1. Propose ordinances or amendments to ordinances for consideration
by the Borough Assembly which would serve to protect and enhance
the quality of the air within the borough;
2. Promulgate appropriate rules and regulations;
3. Investigate nuisances, health hazards and other harmful effects
related to or caused by air pollution; and
4. Develop comprehensive plans for the prevention, abatement and
control of air pollution in the Borough.
4.1.3 Tri Borough District
Effective 1 October 1970 the Tri-Borough Air Resources Management
District was created. This District is-supervised by a Commission of six
(6) persons elected from each of the boroughs within the District. The
4-2
-------
District is headed by a Director who answers to the Commission. There are
currently four (4) air pollution control functional positions which report to
to the Environmental Health Director of the Greater Anchorage Area Borough
(See Figure 5). Projected manpower requirements call for the acquisition
of two additional full time technicians to complement the existing staff
of three professional engineers and one technician.
The Tri-Borough District is supported by other borough agencies as
required to accomplish the objectives of the District (See Figure 2). Its
jurisdiction extends to those areas within the boroughs of Kenai and
Matanuska-Susitna, and the Greater Anchorage Area.
Powers granted to the Tri-Borough Air Resources Management District
by enabling legislation passed by each of the Borough Assemblies have been
specified in Article 111 Section 3.07 of Regulation I. of the Tri-Borough
Air Resource Management District which became effective 4 January 1971.
4.1.4 Other Agencies
4.1.4.1 State Agencies
Each of the Air Pollution Control Agencies within the State of Alaska
will require the assistance and cooperation of other state agencies from
time to time in order to accomplish their assigned tasks. The following
list of state agencies may be called upon to carry out the provisions of
the State I.P.
4.1.4.1.1 Office of the Governor
The Governor as chief executive officer of the state has overall
responsibility for the administration of all programs within the state.
His concurrence is required to effect certain provisions of the A/P
program such as the Episode Abatement Plan.
Within the office of the Governor is the Local Affairs Agency
administered by a director of local affairs. This agency administers
a state program to provide assistance to local communities, including
assistance in fiscal problems,...legal matters, engineering, purchasing,
planning and the recruitment of technical and specialized personnel. This
agency is available to assist the DEC as well as the local Air Pollution
-Control Agencies as needed. For a more detailed description of the
powers of this agency see AS Section 44.19.205.
4-3
-------
4.1.4.1.2 Department of Administration
Inasmuch as the DEC is a state agency its payroll and general accounts
shall be administered by the Department of Administration. This department
under AS Section 44.21.020 has complete responsibility for conducting the
fiscal affairs of the State for all departments of the state. It will
administer any contracts entered into by Departments of the State with the
Federal Government for financial assistance of all kinds. Lines of com-
munication and policies of cooperation between the Commissioner of
Administration and the Commissioner of Environmental Conservation are
critical to the effective implementation of the Air Pollution Control and
Abatement Program.
4.1.4.1.3 Department of Law
Enforcement provision of the Rules and Regulations for the State of
Alaska when violated shall necessitate in some instances prosecution by the
state. This task will fall upon the State Attorney General when the viola-
tions occur within those areas that are under the jurisdiction of the DEC.
When the violations occur within areas under jurisdiction of the local Air
Pollution Control Agencies, local law enforcement authorities will
prosecute the violators.
Additional assistance in the carry out of the provision of the State
Implementation Plan shall be acquired from the Department of Law via the
rendering of legal opinions, review of proposed rules and regulations and
assistance in the promotion of uniform laws for enforcement of air pollu-
tion control regulations throughout the State.
4.1.4.1.4 Department of Revenue
This department will only be indirectly involved in the operation of
a Statewide Air Pollution Control Program in that it has the responsibility
of enforcing the tax laws of the state. Funds collected by the department
are administered by the Department of Administration.
4.1,4.1.5 Department of Health and Welfare
The Department of Health and Welfare will provide assistance to the
DEC as required to facilitate the assessment of the effects of the DEC'S
air pollution contrpl program on the public health. This department is
4-4
-------
4.1.4.1.9 Department of Economic Development and Planning
It shall be the policy of the Department of economic Development
and Planning to coordinate with the DEC prior to exercising its duties to'
promote the economic and industrial growth of Alaska. Coordination will
be required to ensure that inducements are not made to these industries
which when in operation will adversely effect the quality of the ambient
air. Close cooperation between these departments will serve to avoid
conflicts in law where promises are made by the department which will result
in a violation of the Rules and Regulations of the DEC.
4.1.4.1.10 Alaska Industrial Development Authority
The charter of this department is similar to that of the Department
of Economic Development and Planning. Here too the interest of the DEC may
conflict with that of the Industrial Development Authority. Cooperation
and coordination between the departments will be required to balance the
equities involved.
4.1.4.2 Local Agencies
Each of the Air Pollution Control Authorities within the State of
Alaska will be able to call upon various local agencies to assist in the
implementation and enforcement of air pollution control programs.
Assistance will be solicited when in the opinion of the appropriate Air
Pollution Control Agency it is needed. The following list of local govern-
mental agencies may be involved in various phases of the program.
4.1.4.2.1 Local Police
Visual emission standards may be enforced by the use of local police
as a supplement to the field patrol activities of the appropriate Air
Pollution Control Authority. Local police may be employed to enforce
restraining orders or injunctions issued to arrest an activity in viola-
tion of the Rules and Regulations. Local police powers may be required
to collect penalties imposed on sources found in violation of specified
sections of the Rules and Regulations.
Fairbanks currently has a law enforcement force of 45 officers. In
Anchorage the law enforcement force consists of approximately 110 persons.
4-5
-------
responsible for the administration of the states health programs which
include the operation of laboratories, medical facilities and other pre-
ventive medical services. Statistical data collected by the Department
of H&W will be invaluable in the analysis of the effects of air contamination
levels on the public health.
4.1.4.1.6 Department of Commerce
One of the principal functions of the Department of Commerce, that of
the registration of corporations, when executed will be of assistance to
the DEC in its program of source registration. Coorperation between the
DEC and the Department of Commerce will ensure complete registration of
all air pollution sources within the State of Alaska.
The Department of Commerce also has the responsibility for power
development (Title 44 Chapter 33 Article 2) within the State of Alaska.
Inasmuch as power plants are among the major sources of air pollution
emissions, an effective
-------
4.1.4.2.2 Fire Departments
Local Fire Department personnel may be utilized in the air pollution
control programs in the capacity of inspectors, and as monitoring station
operators in remote locations. The personnel would require instruction
and training in the task to be performed by agents of the appropriate Air
Pollution Control Agency.
4.1.4.2.3 Borough Planning and Zoning Directors
Coordination between the various Borough Planning and Zoning Directors
and the Air Pollution Control Agencies will be a regular part of the pro-
gram to present and control, air pollution on a local and state wide basis.
4.1.4.2.4 Borough Public Works Directors
Lines of communication between the state and local Air Pollution
Control Agencies and the Public Work Directors of each incorporated borough
will be established. Decisions to use or not to use certain fuels during
periods of high air quality readings will be the outgrowth of such
communications.
4.1.4.2.5 Local Prosecuting Attorneys
Violations of the local and state rules and regulations which are
detected within the jurisdiction of the local Air Pollution Control Agencies
shall be processed by the local city or borough attorneys office. Viola-
tions occurring within the jurisdictions of the DEC shall be processed by
the State Attorney General's Office.
4.1.4.2.6 Medical Director
In these boroughs having a Medical Director, coordination channels
between this office and the appropriate Air Pollution Control Agency to
provide public health information to the air pollution analyst shall be
established. Data acquired via the Medical Director on the state of the
public health will be utilized in the air pollution program evaluation
studies.
4.1.4.2.6 Other Manpower
Because of the vastness of the State of Alaska, and the prevailing
climatic conditions it will be impossible for the appropriate Air
4-7
-------
Pollution Control Agencies to operate a comprehensive air monitoring
network without the aid of part time assistance from local citizens. Air
samples may be operated by local residents trained by the Authority to
collect the data samples and store them for eventual collection by agents
of the local or state agency. These helpers may be the local operator of
a general store, a teacher, forestry official or citizens who reside in a
remote area.

-------
5.0 RESOURCES TO BE ACQUIRED
5.1 MANPOWER
The projected manpower estimates required to implement this plan are
shown in Section 3.4 of this document. It can be concluded from these
estimates and a survey of the current manpower available, as shown in Section
4, that a recruitment program will have to be launched to adequately staff
two of the three Air Pollution Control Agencies (State DEC and North Star
Borough).
5.1.1 Department of Environmental Conservation
At present the DEC has one full-time air quality engineer, a state
asignee and secretarial support. In order to meet the projected requirements
the DEC will have to acquire at least 3 professional employees, and two
technicians. One of the technician positions may be filled by several part-
time employees or volunteers in remote locations.
5.1.2 Tri-Borough Air Resources Management District
This district is currently in operation with four full-time and four
part-time employees. The full time employees; are two Sanitation Engineers
and two are technicians. Four sanitation aides spend 20% of their time
involved in the activities of the Air Pollution Management District.
5.1.3 North Star Air Pollution Control Office
At present there is only one full time employee working in the Air
Pollution Control Office of the North Star Air Pollution Control Office. In
order to implement the plans for an Air pollution control program in the
borough two addition professional employees, a technician and a secretary
will have to be acquired.
5-1
-------
6.0 REVENUE SOURCES
Total cost estimates for the implementation of the Alaska State Air
Pollution Control Program were shown in Section 3.4 of this document. Funds
to meet these requirements may be obtained from a combination of the
sources listed below.
6.1 LOCAL TAXATION
The Tri-Borough Air Pollution Control District and the North Star
Air Pollution Control Commission are located within boroughs which have the
power to assess local property and levy taxes to finance the operations
of the borough for the welfare of the citizens of the borough. Borough
assemblies may authorize the levying of taxes, charges, or assessments
within a service area to finance the special services of the borough.
6.2 STATE ASSISTANCE
Section 46.03.230(a) of Title 44 as ammended indicated that state aid
for air pollution control programs is available for up to 75% of the locally
funded operating cost of the programs. In the case of a state wide program,
state aid is available for the cost of the entire program. These funds are
appropriated by the state legislature.
6.3 FEDERAL ASSISTANCE
Alaska Statue 44.46.03.230(b) authorizes municipalities of the state
and regional air pollution control agencies established under sections
140-240 of that chapter to apply for, receive, administer and expand federal
aid for the control of air pollution subject to approval of the DEC.
The Federal Clean Air Act of 1967 provides for federal assistance to
states for 4 types of air pollution control programs. They are (1)
Development Projects, (2) Establishment Projects (3) Improvement Projects
and (4) Maintenance. Detailed information on these programs can be
obtained from the Region Office within the Environmental Protection Agency.
6.4. PERMIT FEES
Some portions of the cost of each program will be borne by the fees
collected via the administration of the Permit System. These fees are
not expected to make the operation self sustaining.
6-1
-------
6.5 PENALTIES
While the purpose of imposing penalties for violations of the Rules
and Regulations of the Authorities is not to finance the operation, it
is obvious that the collection of fines and penalties will contribute to
the financing of the operation cost.

GROUND RULES FOR AIR POLLUTION IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
MANPOWER REQUIREMENT ESTIMATES
A. Existing Sources
1. Registration of Existing Sources - 2 hours per source
Time estimate includes the time required to record, review, and compute
emission estimates from each source description submitted to the
appropriate Air Pollution Control Authority to ascertain which sources
will require permits to operate.
2. Granting of Operation Permits - 16 hours per source
Sources emitting air contaminants in excess of the specified limits are
required to submit permit to operate applications. These applications must
be reviewed and the equipment may be inspected. This function will consume
16 hours, depending upon the location of the source, the completeness of
the application and the results of the inspection.
3. Negotiation of Variances -
Applications for Permits to Operate which have been rejected may be
resubmitted after negotiations between the operator and the appropriate
Air Pollution Control Authority for the granting of a variance to one or
more of the rules and regulations. This process may take conferences to
discuss those schedules for eventual compliance by the operator with the
established rules and regulations.
4. Evaluation of Stack Sampling Data - 16 hours per source
Data acquisitions from stack sampling operations submitted to the authority
by various source operations must be evaluated. This task may entail on-
the-spot witnessing of the data acquisition procedures on a random basis.
B. New Sources
1. Granting of Authority to Construct - 80 hours per source
Applications for construction of new sources must be submitted to the
appropriate Air Pollution Control Authority for review and evaluation.
Estimated emissions will be calculated to ascertain if the proposed
construction will comply with existing regulations prior to the issuance
of a construction permit.
2. Issuance of Permit to Operate New Source - 20 hours per source
A representative of the appropriate Air Pollution Control Authority will,
prior to the granting of a permit to operate to a new source, witness thi:
operation of that source and its emission tests. Following this operation,
a permit may then be granted.
7-3
-------
C. Enforcement Services
1. Scheduled Inspections
An agent of the appropriate Air Pollution Control Authority will travel to
appropriate sources to ascertain if the. abatement equipment is in operation
and in good working order. The time required will vary depending upon the
nature and location of the source inspected.
2. Enforcement
Agents of the appropriate Air Pollution Control Authority will make field
patrols to detect visual violations of the established rules and regulations
and prosecute the offenders as provided for in the appropriate statutes.
3. Source Testing - SO - 70 hours per source
A time-consuming operation which may require the transportation of men and
equipment to the source location. Actual test set-up time will vary with
the nature of the source, i.e., its construction features, output characteris-
tics, etc. Remote test locations will require more travel time (Region Oil).
D. Technical Services
Time estimates for the acquisition and analysis of the test data from the
sampling networks are based on the types of equipment utilized. Typical
time estimates for the following operations are based on steady state operations
and do not allow for travel to and from the instrument location.
