1.0 INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND
States with areas classified as nonattainment with respect to the
National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) were required by the Clean Air
Act (CAA) Amendments of 1977 to submit attainment plans in 1979 which
demonstrated attainment by 1982. Although attainment plans were submitted and
control strategies implemented, several areas failed to demonstrate compliance
with the carbon monoxide (CO) and ozone standards by the 1982 deadline. In
response, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) extended the deadline
for attainment to 1987. In 1987, the EPA determined that despite the 10-year
effort, many of these nonattainment areas were still unable to comply with the
NAAQS requirements. In addition, new areas were being classified as
nonattainment for ozone and CO.
In order to assist these areas in achieving the NAAQS, the EPA proposed a
post-1987 policy that set forth conditions and provided guidance that States
must meet to revise their State Implementation Plans (SIPs) and demonstrate
compliance with the ozone and CO NAAQS. The proposed policy was published in
the Federal Register on November 24, 1987. In the June 6, 1988 Federal
Register, the EPA published a 11st of areas proposed to be designated as
nonattainment for ozone and CO. The September 7, 1988 Federal Register
contained a 11st of areas that the EPA formally designated as nonattainment
for ozone and CO and Issued SIP calls for these areas.
As a part of the proposed post-1987 policy and as a result of their
status as nonattainment areas, the areas receiving SIP calls were required to
submit revised SIP emission inventories for either the 1987 or 1988 base year.
These base year Inventories are to be used for emissions projection purposes
and as a starting point for defining control strategy options for getting the
areas into attainment. The EPA has put a significant amount of attention and
resources into the revision of the existing SIP Inventories for nonattainment
areas because it recognizes that without a sound base year Inventory from
which to begin, effective control and attainment strategies cannot be
formulated.

-------
To assist States with the preparation of revised inventories, the EPA has
developed a large complement of inventory guidance materials. A listing of
the guidance materials published for implementing the post-1987 policy is
given in Table 1-1. With dozens of inventories being prepared all across the
country, the EPA is concerned about consistency, quality, and adherence to the
published guidance. To this end, this document has been developed to serve as
a common basis for quality review of revised SIP inventories in all ten EPA
regions.
PURPOSE OF DOCUMENT
The primary purpose of this document is to provide EPA regional offices
with a standard set of guidelines to use in conducting formal reviews of
revised SIP inventories received from ozone and CO nonattainment areas.
Having a standard set of inventory review guidelines will help ensure national
consistency in the level of scrutiny that submitted inventories will undergo.
These guidelines will also ensure the proper documentation of review
activities to allow for serial review with minimal overlap. A third use of
this document and the review guidelines is to provide State agencies preparing
the inventories with information to use as a self-check prior to submitting
the inventories to EPA.
This document provides review guidelines that address whether States
followed the overall requirements for inventory preparation published in the
guidance material shown in Table 1-1 and whether the Inventories meet
developed specifications for completeness, consistency (both internal and with
national trends), reasonableness of emission values, and overall documentation
requirements. The review guidelines given in this document are not meant to
be used to determine the absolute accuracy of an Inventory or whether values
are "right or wrong." Instead, the guidelines should serve as a mechanism for
promoting timely feedback to the preparing agency on ways they need to revamp
their inventory to be acceptable for the purposes of post-1987 SIPs.

2.0 OVERVIEW OF INVENTORY GUIDELINES
The quality review program for post-1987 SIP nonattainment base year
emission inventories presented in this document contains three levels of
review. These levels are known simply as Level I, Level II, and Level III.
The levels are successively more detailed and specific as one goes from Level
I to III. The levels are designed to be performed sequentially. There are,
for example, questions in Level I that if answered negatively would require
the reviewing agency to send the inventory back to the preparers for revision
before further review could be performed. Failure to meet minimum standards
set forth in Level I would dictate that Levels II and III would not even be
attempted.
Level I is Intended to be a global check of the inventory to ensure that
it meets the minimum requirements and quality standards set forth in the
guidance document Emission Inventory Requirements for Post-1987 Ozone State
Implementation Plans (EPA-450/4-88-019). Purposes of the Level I checks
include:
- ensuring that the whole inventory was prepared according
to the specified procedures (e.g., seasonal adjustment,
rule effectiveness) and that all essential data
elements (e.g., point, area, and mobile sources, VOC, NO,,
and CO emissions) are present,
- flagging obvious omissions for the purpose of providing
immediate feedback to the preparing agency, and
- providing the bases for making decisions regarding whether
or not Inventory review should continue in the event
problems are discovered.
Level I 1s explained in detail in Section 3 as is the guidance for using the
Level I checklist. The complete Level I checklist 1s given in Appendix A,
Table A-4.
c»o.02J«
2-1
-------
The Level II quality review process is slightly more detailed and
specific than Level I. Its purpose is to check the inventory with respect to
completeness of source coverage, the correct application of procedural
requirements, and overall consistency both within the inventory and with
nationally-based representative values. Level II checks have been developed
for stationary point sources, stationary area sources, highway mobile area
sources, and nonhighway mobile area sources. Detailed descriptions of the
Level II checks for these sources can be found in Sections 4, 5, 6, and 7,
respectively.
The Level II checklists are contained in Appendix A according to the
following schedule.
Table A-5: Stationary Point Sources
Table A-6: Stationary Area Sources
Table A-7: Highway Mobile Area Sources
Table A-8: Nonhighway Mobile Area Sources
The Level III quality review checks pertain to a collection of
reasonableness ranges that have been developed for many of the point and area
source categories. These reasonableness ranges have been determined for
parameters such as emissions, activity levels, production throughputs, and
control device efficiencies. The ranges have been developed using several
sources of nationally-based data such as the National Emissions Data System
(NEDS), the National Add Precipitation Assessment Program (NAPAP) data base,
and U.S. Department of Transportation data. The Level III values represent
ranges in which the comparable inventory values should fall if they are in the
5th to 95th percentile of such data in the U.S. The Level III reasonableness
range checks are located in Appendix B of this document. [NOTE TO THE READER:
LEVEL III REASONABLENESS RANGES HERE STILL BEING DEVELOPED AS OF THE
AVAILABILITY OF THIS DRAFT DOCUMENT. ONCE COMPLETED, THE RANGES HILL BE
CONTAINED IN LATER VERSIONS OF THIS DOCUMENT.]

-------
A diagram illustrating the overall review process and the sequencing of
all three levels is shown in Figure 2-1. The complete quality review
checklist package is provided in Appendix A. It consists of Tables A-l
through A-8. The Appendix A forms can be duplicated for use in as many
inventories as needed. [NOTE: THE LEVEL III REASONABLENESS RANGES ARE NOT
CONTAINED IN THE PACKAGE AT THIS TINE. THEY HILL BE ADDED TO THE PACKAGE WHEN
COMPLETED.]
Special attention should be paid to the first three tables of Appendix A.
These tables are part of the review package but are not part of either the
Level I, II, or III checklists. These tables more administrative in nature in
terms of properly documenting how the quality review was performed. Table A-
1 documents such items as:
- what agency submitted the inventory,
- what agency prepared the inventory, and
- what is the geographic area represented by the inventory.
Table A-l should be filled out for each unique inventory submitted.
Table A-2 documents the quality review process carried out at the
regional level. It records the original receipt of the inventory and
chronicles who reviewed it, when they reviewed it, and what parts were
reviewed. Table A-3 is used to provide a record of the correspondence between
the region and the States on discussions relating to inventory preparation and
quality. Table A-3 only requires that a copy of all such correspondence be
attached as a part of the quality review package.
Section 8 of this report discusses how the entire inventory review
process should be summarized and follow-up activities that should occur. It
describes what activities should take place once the Appendix A checklist
package has been completed. Essentially, the Region should transmit the
completed package back to the submitting agency and supply them with a write-
up describing all inventory deficiencies. To complement the summarization

3.0 LEVEL I REVIEW
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this section Is to define Level I quality review as It
pertains to State Implementation Plan (SIP) nonattainment Inventories and
describe the kinds of specific data quality checks it entails. Level I is
essentially the Initial level of broad review that should be performed on
inventories. Level I checks parallel the inventory preparation guidance
requirements found in the report Emission Inventory Requirements for Post-
1987 Ozone State Implementation Plans (EPA-450/4-88-019). The questions found
in the Level I checklist in Appendix A, Table A-4 are designed to quickly and
easily allow a determination to be made on whether the basic inventory
requirements specified by EPA have been met.
The Level I checks also have the purpose of serving as a way to flag
obvious omissions such that Immediate feedback can be provided to the
preparing agency. The checklist can be used as a decision tool to determine
whether an inventory contains sufficient Information to even bother going
through an entire review procedure. The Level I process may uncover Inventory
flaws that make continuing with the review process an unproductive venture.
Flagging such flaws early helps get the Inventory back into the preparer's
hands for revision.
Level I ensures that the key "big picture" Inventory Items have been
satisfactorily addressed before more detailed review takes place in Levels II
and III. For example, it addresses such items as were point, area, and mobile
sources included; were VOC, NO,, and CO emissions estimated; was the
nonattainment area of the inventory clearly defined; were key procedural
requirements such as rule effectiveness and ozone season adjustment followed;
and was some type of quality assurance performed. Level I review 1s not a
measure of whether a specific number is right or wrong.,
eao.023 -> i
-------
The remainder of this section provides a set of detailed instructions
for inventory reviewers to follow 1n using the Level I checklist found in
Appendix A. In addition to the instructions, a copy of the associated
checklist sections are also provided for clarification purposes and to avoid
having to Jump back and forth between Section 3.0 and Appendix A when reading
the instructions.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING LEVEL I REVIEW CHECKLIST
This section contains detailed Instructions for completing the Level I
Review Checklist in Appendix A, Table A-4. The Instructions are keyed to the
checklist numbering system found in the appendix. The Instructions contain
text describing how to use the checklist, tables with examples of the kinds of
information the reviewer should be looking for in the inventory, and a copy of
the actual checklist sections being described to give the reviewer a quick
reference tool as they are reading the Instructions. If the guidelines in the
instructions are not met by the Inventory, the box for that question should be
checked No.

4.1.2 Each nonattainment area contains a certain number of affected
counties. The counties in the nonattainment area that are
addressed 1n the Inventory should be clearly Identified. The
September 7, 1988 Federal Register lists these counties.
4.1.3 The guidelines for SIP nonattainment base year Inventories
requires that all 100 ton/yr emission sources found In the
geographic area extending 25 miles out from the boundary of the
designated nonattainment area be Included In the base year
Inventory. The 25-mile zone should be defined In some way either
descriptively or by the use of a map.
4.1.4 The Inventory should address VOC, NO,, and CO emissions. If any
one of the three are not Included for a source type where It is
applicable (e.g., NO, from mobile sources was not covered), the
box should be checked No. Table 3-2 should serve as an aid in
determining which pollutants are associated with what categories.
4.1.5 Summary emission tables should be provided that are specific to
each pollutant (I.e., VOC, NO,, and CO). An example of what such
tables should look like 1s provided in Table 3-3.
4.1.6 Summary emission tables for each pollutant should be provided on
an Individual county basis. For example, 1f the nonattainment
area has three counties, there should be three summary tables for
VOC emissions, three for NO,, and three for CO.

Emissions from these sources may occur from source categories
identified elsewhere in Table 2.2-1. For example, carbon monoxide and
oxides of nitrogen are emitted from industrial boilers at organic and
inorganic manufacturing facilities. Likewise, carbon monoxide and
oxides of nitrogen are emitted from reciprocating engines at oil and
gas production facilities, and volatile organic compounds are emitted
from many industries involved in degreasing operations. An effort
should be made to avoid double counting from these sources.

4.1.7 The calendar year on which the inventory data are based and
applicable to should be stated somewhere in the inventory report.
4.1.8 The inventory should address stationary point sources, stationary
area sources, highway mobile sources, and nonhighway mobile
sources. These should be included for each county in the
nonattainment area.
4.1.9 For each pollutant, the reviewer is asked to calculate the percent
contribution to emissions from each of the four major source
types: stationary point sources, stationary area sources, highway
mobile sources, and nonhighway mobile sources. Enter the percent
contributions on the lines provided. The percentages should be
for the total area included in the inventory and not individual
counties.
4.1.10 The reviewer should check the emission estimates and the
calculations to verify that emissions are specific to the ozone
season and that daily activity has been incorporated into the
estimate. Examples of seasonal adjustment factors for area
sources are given in Table 3-4.

4.1.11 The reviewer should check the inventory and the documentation to
ensure that non-reactive VOC have not been included in the VOC
emission totals. Non-reactive VOC are not allowed to be counted
as VOC for the purposes of SIP ozone nonattainment inventories.
The list of non-reactive VOC is given in Table 3-5.
4.1.12 The emission inventory estimates should have been determined by
taking into account existing regulatory requirements. The
specific requirements applicable to each source category should
have been denoted. Examples of the types of regulations that
should have been included are given in Table 3-6.
4.1.13 The reviewer should check the inventory documentation and
calculations to make sure that rule effectiveness and rule
penetration were incorporated where applicable. These conditions
are applicable for any source category that has existing
regulatory requirements on it to reduce emissions and that is not
an uncontrolled source. In cases where rule effectiveness was
applied, the reviewer should check to see if an effectiveness
level other than the 80 percent EPA default was used. If so,
documentation should be provided for the alternative level used.
4.2 POINT SOURCES
4.2.1 Emission estimates should have been developed for all VOC point
sources with actual emissions of at least 10 tons/yr. The
reviewer should check the inventory documentation to determine how
point sources were identified for inclusion in the inventory.
Source types such as those shown in Table 3-7 would need to have
been evaluated for inclusion in the inventory. The method of
source identification should be delineated as a part of the
documentation. Identification methods might include: 1) existing
State permit files, 2) NEDS source listings, 3)NAPAP source
listings, 4) industrial directory listings, 5) existing SIP
inventory listings, and 6) source survey results.

area have been addressed in the inventory. These sources should
all be in the inventory and should have process, point, and
segment level data requirements met as shown in Table 3-8.
4.2.4 The reviewer should determine how emissions estimates were derived
for VOC sources in the 10-25 tons/yr range. If the estimates were
determined by using facility-specific data gathered through a
written survey, phone survey, or other means, check Yes to this
question. If facility-specific data were not used (e.g., a
category emission factor was used or extrapolations were made from
similar sources), check No.
4.2.5 If the reviewer determines that facility-specific data were not
used to estimate emissions for 10-25 ton/yr VOC sources, a check
should be made of the documentation to see if a statistical
extrapolation approach was used. This approach involves
determining emissions or an emission factor for a subset of
sources within a category and extrapolating this emission rate to
the other members of the category based on an activity level or
other surrogate parameter.

4.2.6 If question 4.2.5 is answered Yes, the reviewer should determine
if the proper documentation has been provided. The four Hems
listed refer to the types of documentation for the statistical
extrapolation approach that EPA requires in Its inventory
guidance.
4.2.7 The reviewer should check the inventory documentation and
calculations to make sure that rule effectiveness and rule
penetration were incorporated where applicable. These conditions
are applicable for any source category that has existing
regulatory requirements on 1t to reduce emissions and that is not
an uncontrolled source. In cases where rule effectiveness was
applied, the reviewer should check to see if an effectiveness
level other than the 80 percent EPA default was used. If so,
documentation* should be provided for the alternative level used.
4.2.8 The reviewer should check to ensure that NO, and CO sources with
emissions of 100 tons/yr or greater located in the nonattainment
area or in the 25-mile zone extending from the nonattainment area
are addressed 1n the inventory.

4.3 AREA SOURCES
4.3.1 The predominant non-mobile area source categories recognized by
EPA 1n Its SIP Inventory guidance materials are listed here. The
reviewer should go through the 11st and determine which categories
have been Included In the Inventory and which have not.
Documentation should be present in the Inventory describing why
missing categories were not Included.
4.3.2 The reviewer should evaluate the documentation for the area source
emissions estimates and ensure that at a minimum all emission
factors and activity levels used are presented and the sources of
these data are given. If equations are used (e.g., for storage
tanks), the values of all variables, the sources of the values,
and any other assumptions used should be presented. If sufficient
information is not given to independently replicate the emissions
estimates, then documentation 1s not sufficient and No should be
checked.
4.3.3 The reviewer should check to ensure that point source
contributions have been subtracted out from area source category
totals whenever appropriate. Some area source categories, such as
graphic arts, contain both area and point sources. Large
operations are treated as point sources and are handled in the
point source component of the inventory. However, the mechanism
for calculating area source emissions Involves looking at the
entire category, Including the point source component. To avoid
double counting, the point source contribution has to be
subtracted out. The categories most likely to have a point source
contribution are degreasing, graphic arts, drycleaning, and
surface coating.

applied, the reviewer should check to see if an effectiveness
level other than the 80 percent EPA default was used. If so,
documentation should be provided for the alternative level used.
4.4 MOBILE SOURCES
4.4.1 The reviewer should check to ensure that all of the eight highway
vehicle classes shown in the checklist have been addressed for all
counties in the inventory. Failure to address any category
without sufficient documentation should result in that category
being answered No.
4.4.2 The reviewer should determine if EPA's MOBILE4 model was used to
generate VOC, NO,, and CO emission factors for highway vehicle
emissions estimates. The California Air Resources Board has
developed a model called EMFAC70 that Is similar to MOBILE4 but is
more specific to California. The model, however, requires more
detailed and site-specific Information and, therefore, MOBILE4 may
have been used even for California areas. If MOBILE4 was used in
an area, Including California, answer the question Yes. If
EMFAC7D was used in California areas, answer the question No and

4.0 LEVEL II REVIEW - POINT SOURCES
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this section 1s to define Level II quality review
procedures for evaluating the stationary point source component of emission
inventory submittals. The Level II review is presented in a checklist format
and addresses three types of review checks: completeness, procedures and
consistency. Blank checklists for use in performing and documenting the Level
II quality review are included in Appendix A (Table A-5). The remainder of
this section presents detailed instructions on how to use the checklists in
performing a Level II point source review.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING LEVEL II CHECKLIST
This section contains detailed instructions for completing the Level II
review checklist for Point Sources in Appendix A, Table A-5. The instructions
are keyed to the checklist numbering system found in the appendix. The
instructions contain text describing how to use the checklist, and a copy of
the actual checklist sections being described to give the reviewer a quick
reference tool as they are reading the instructions. If the guidelines in the
instructions are not met by the inventory, or if documentation is insufficient
to determine if guidelines were met, the box for that question should be
checked "No".
Reviewers should utilize the comment column to describe specific
findings or to qualify their summary findings as deemed necessary. If
additional comment space is required, reviewers should attach pages as
necessary. The reviewer should also utilize the checklist comment column to
list the location (I.e., page number(s)) in the Inventory document where a
particular Item 1s found or discussed. This page number accounting 1s
important for two reasons: 1) follow-up comments directed to the preparing
agency should be page number specific, and 2) successive reviews performed by
EPA can benefit by avoiding dupHcative review efforts necessary to find the
specific item in question.

Question
Instructions
5.1 COMPLETENESS CHECK
5.1.1 The inventory should include small point sources. The absence of
small point sources in the submitted inventory illustrates that
the preparing agency either failed to understand the inventory
preparation guidelines or blatantly refused to follow the
guidelines. An inventory that does not include sources in the 10-
25 tpy size range is incomplete, and results in an underestimate
of the total MSA emissions.
5.1.2 Check the point source documentation to ensure that the listed
small emission source types are represented. Point sources in the
listed categories are expected to be present in all MSA's. If one
or more of the categories are not represented, review the
inventory documentation and describe applicable explanations in
the comment column.
5.1.3 For a typical MSA the point source Inventory is expected to
contain emission sources in each of the listed categories.
5.1 COMPLETENESS CHECKS
5.1.1 Does the inventory include
point sources for VOC in the
10-25 tpy (actual) range?
5.1.2 Are the following VOC point
source categories represented
among the 10-25 tpy plant
listings?
- Graphic Arts
- Coaaercial/institutional
boilers
5.1.3 Are the following broad source
categories represented among

5.1.4 Review the point source documentation and determine if the listed
CO and NOX emission source categories are represented. Utility
and industrial boilers are not necessarily present in all MSAs,
but are expected to be common in many areas.
5.2 PROCEDURES
5.2.1 Review the inventory submittal and determine if documentation was
provided to identify the methodology used for arriving at the
point source inventory. Briefly describe the approach in the
comment column of the checklist (e.g., based on existing 1985
inventory updated to eliminated facilities that have closed, and
updated emissions and production data through permits, quarterly
reports, and plant contacts). In the checklist comment column,
identify the inventory document page number(s) where the requested
information is found.
5.2.2 The point source inventory should reflect a 1987 or 1988 base
year. If a previous inventory was used as a starting point,
documentation should be provided to describe how the previous
inventory was adjusted to reflect the '87 or '88 base year. In
the checklist comment column, identify the base year of the
inventory and identify the location in the inventory document
(page number) where the base year is defined.

5.2.3 The summary emission estimates for point sources should be
adjusted to reflect the ozone season and rule effectiveness.
Ozone season adjustments should be based on point source operating
schedules and quarterly process throughput Information. Ozone
season adjustments should be applied on a production unit level.
Emissions should be presented as ozone season dally emissions.
Rule effectiveness should be applied to all sources that are
subject to SIP regulations (with minor exceptions as noted in
Procedures for Estimating and Applying Rule Effectiveness in Post-
1987 Base Year Inventories for Ozone and Carbon Monoxide State
Implementation Plans -- June 1989).
5.2.4 The inventory documentation should define the month(s) that were
assumed to reflect the MSA ozone season. In the checklist comment
column, 11st the period identified as the ozone season and list
the page number of the documentation where the ozone season
determination is described.
5.2.5 Review the list of emission source categories which are covered by
EPA Control Technique Guidelines (CTGs) (Section 3, Table 3-6) and
determine if rule effectiveness was applied to emission estimates.
5.2.6 If an 80 percent rule effectiveness factor was applied to each of
the categories listed in 5.2.5 check the "yes" box. If the 80
percent was applied only to some of the categories check the "no"
box and make the distinction in the comment column. The
inventory documentation should describe any deviation from the 80
percent rule effectiveness factor. If the preparing agency used
rule effectiveness factors that were different than the 80 percent
default values, show the value used in the comment column. Also
in the comment column, list the page number(s) of the Inventory
document where the alternate factor development procedures are
described.

5.2.8 Select a subset of large (> 25 tpy) point sources for the purpose
of performing a detailed procedures check. Randomly select a
single plant (i.e., record number) as the starting point of the
subset and then review each plant that chronologically follows
until a total of 25 percent of the inventory has been covered.
(For example, detailed review should be performed on 50 plants if
the point inventory contains 200 plants. Detailed review might
cover those facilities with ID numbers between No. 72 and 122.)
The reviewer should list the ID numbers of plants selected for
detailed review in the comment column. The specific information
listed in the checklist should be compiled and presented for each
of the plants. The reviewer should check the "no" box if the
requested information is not provided for more than 90 percent of
the selected plants. To assist the reviewer in locating the
information, Table 5-1 contains an example of how the compiled
information might look if the inventory was prepared using PC-
SAMs.
5.3 CONSISTENCY CHECKS
The following consistency checks are included to provide an
overall rule-of-thumb approach to assessing the quality of the
inventory. The ranges that are provided were developed from a
national perspective and may not necessarily reflect conditions at
any given location. The reviewer will have to perform some
calculations to derive the comparison indices. All calculated
indices should be reported in the comment column.
5.3.1 Calculate the percent of the total point source VOC emissions that
are attributed to small (< 25 TPY) sources. Report the small
point total, the point source total and the calculated value in
the comment column.

5.0 LEVEL II REVIEW-AREA STATIONARY SOURCES
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this section is to define Level II quality review
procedures for evaluating the area stationary source component of the emission
inventory submittal. The Level II review is presented in a checklist format
and addresses three types of review checks: completeness, procedures, and
consistency. Blank checklists for use in performing and documenting the Level
II quality review are included in Appendix A of this document. The remainder
of this section presents detailed instructions on how to use the checklists in
performing the Level II review.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING LEVEL II CHECKLIST
This section contains detailed instructions for completing the Level II
review checklist for area stationary sources. A blank review checklist
covering the area stationary source category is contained in Appendix A.,
Table A-6. The instructions presented in this section are keyed to the
checklist numbering system found in the appendix. The instructions contain
text describing how to use the checklist, and a copy of the actual checklist
sections being described to give the reviewer a quick reference tool as they
are reading the instructions. If the guidelines in the instructions are not
met by the inventory, or if documentation is insufficient to determine if
guidelines were met, the box for that question should be checked "No".
Reviewers should utilize the comment column to describe specific findings or
to qualify their summary findings as deemed necessary. If additional comment
space is required, reviewers should attach pages as necessary. The reviewer
should also utilize the checklist comment column to list the location
(i.e., page number(s)) in the inventory document where a particular item is
found or discussed. This page number accounting is important for two reasons:
I) follow-up comments directed to the preparing agency should be page number
specific, and 2) successive reviews performed by EPA can benefit by avoiding
duplicative review efforts necessary to find the specific item in question.

For a typical MSA the area stationary source inventory is expected
to contain emission sources in each of the listed categories. The
reviewer can quickly determine if these categories are included by
reviewing the overall inventory summary tables. To assist the
reviewer in locating this information, Table 3-9 shows an example
of a summary table generated using PC-SAMs. If one or more of the
categories are not Included, review the inventory documentation
and describe applicable explanations (and page numbers) in the
comment column.
For a typical MSA the area stationary source inventory is expected
to contain emission sources in each of the listed categories.
6.2 PROCEDURES CHECK
6.2.1
Review the procedures used for developing VOC emissions from each
of the listed area source categories and determine if per capita

6.0 LEVEL II REVIEW - AREA HIGHWAY MOBILE SOURCES
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this section is define Level II quality review as it
pertains to area highway mobile sources. As with the other parts of Level II
review, the goal is to assess the highway mobile source portion of the
inventory in terms of overall completeness, compliance with procedural
requirements, and consistency. The completeness and procedural checks for
highway mobile sources focus primarily on the usage of MOBILE4 and how input
parameters for the model were derived. The consistency checks represent
nationally-based comparison values for the key mobile source parameters such
as vehicle miles travelled (VMT), speed, and temperature.
The Level II checklist for highway mobile sources is given in Appendix A,
Table A-7. These checks, as with all Level II checks, are not meant to assess
absolute data accuracy. Instead, they should be used to probe how well
inventory values were developed, were they developed by the accepted methods,
and do the values appear reasonable relative to surrogate checks. Level II
checks will aid in gauging the overall soundness of how the inventory was
prepared. This level of soundness will serve as an indicator of inventory
quality and acceptability.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING LEVEL II REVIEW CHECKLIST FOR AREA HIGHWAY MOBILE
SOURCES
Instructions for completing Table A-7 are provided below. The
instructions are keyed to the checklist numbering system found in the
appendix. They contain text describing how to use the checklist and a copy of
the actual checklist sections being described to give the reviewer a quick
reference tool as they are reading the instructions. If the guidelines in the
instructions are not met by the inventory, the box for that question should be
checked "No".

Question
Instructions
7.1 COMPLETENESS CHECKS
7.1.1 If the MOBILE4 model was used to determine mobile source
emissions, the reviewer should check to make sure that all input
parameters have been documented. MOBILE4 requires many input
variables. For several inputs, the guidance manual for using the
model recommends that the user apply a MOBILE4 default value
instead of trying to develop local data. For all cases where
local data were used and not MOBILE4 defaults, the reviewer should
make sure that documentation has been provided for the
alternative data.
7.2 PROCEDURES CHECKS
7.2.1
The reviewer should examine the MOBILE4 documentation and
determine if MOBILE4 default values for tampering rates were used
to run the model or was site-specific tampering information used.
7.2.2 If Question 7.2.1 is answered "No," the reviewer should check to
ensure that the alternative tampering rate data were reviewed and
approved for use by EPA. The documentation for the MOBILE4 runs
should describe the basis and source of the rates and if EPA has
approved them for use in MOBILE4.

7.2.3 The documentation for the mobile source inventory should contain
VMT estimates for each county in the metropolitan statistical area
(MSA) by vehicle class. The eight highway vehicle classes are:
- light-duty gasoline vehicles (LDGV)
- light-duty gasoline trucks up to 6000 Ibs
(LDGT1)
- light-duty gasoline trucks from 6000-8500 Ibs
(LDGT2)
- heavy-duty gasoline vehicles (HDGV)
- light-duty diesel vehicles (LDDV)
- light-duty diesel trucks (LOOT)
- heavy-duty diesel vehicles (HDDV)
- motorcycles (MC)
If VMT data are missing for any vehicle class, answer the question
"No."
7.2.4 The reviewer should examine the documentation for MOBILE4 inputs
and determine if the MOBILE4 default values were used for annual
mileage accumulation rates, registration by vehicle type, and
registration by vehicle age. If default values were not used for
any one of these parameters, answer the question "No" and indicate
in the Comments field which used site-specific data.
N/7.2.5 In running MOBILE4, the inventory preparer should have used the
July ASTM volatility class value for estimating ozone season
gasoline Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP). RVP 1s one of the key inputs
to MOBILE4. If something other than the July value was used,
answer the question "No" and indicate In the Comments field what
value was used. This information should be contained in the
documentation for the MOBILE4 inputs.

used, answer the question "No" and Indicate in the Comments field
what speed was used, the road/vehicle type combination it was used
for, and the justification for this speed.
7.3.4 The reviewer first needs to determine the VMT apportionment by
road type in each county on a percentage basis. Once the
apportionments are calculated, the reviewer should compare the
'figures, by each of the eight road types, to the values listed in
the checklist. If the calculated value 1s outside of the stated
range, answer the question "No" and indicate 1n the Comments field
what the calculated apportionment was. If VMT data were not
provided in the inventory or if they were provided but not by road
type, answer the question "No" and indicate such in the Comments
field.
7.3.5 The reviewer should calculate the ratio of VMT/person for the MSA
or nonattalnment area reported in the Inventory. If more than one
county is represented in the inventory, the ratio should be the
sum of VMT in all the counties divided by the sum of population in
all of the counties. If this ratio 1s outside of the range 1505 -
18991, answer the question "No" and enter the calculated range in
the Comments field. If VMT data are not given 1n the inventory,
answer the question "No" and state in the Comments field that
there were no VMT data.

The reviewer should calculate the ratio of VMT/registered vehicle
for the MSA or nonattainment area reported in the inventory. If
more than one county is represented in the inventory, the ratio
should be the sum of VMT in all the counties divided by the sum of
registered vehicles in all of the counties. If the ratio is
outside of the range 9181 - 12,426, answer the question "No" and
enter the calculated range in the Comments field. If VMT data are
not given in the inventory, answer the question "No" and state in
the Comments field that there were no VMT data.
Vehicle registration data should be present in the mobile sources
emissions discussion of the inventory. If registration data are
not given in the inventory, the reviewer has several options.
First, the registration data shown in Table 6-1 could be used.
The reviewer would need to prorate the state registration data
down to the county level using population. The calculation would
be:
(nonattainment area population/state population) x
state vehicle registration data
If this approach is not acceptable, the reviewer should contact
the individual state's transportation, motor vehicle or other
similar governmental agency to obtain county-specific registration
data.

data are not given in the Inventory, answer the question "No" and
state in the Comments field that there were no VMT data.
Gasoline sales or throughput data should be available in the
inventory documentation in either the mobile sources discussion or
the vehicle refueling emissions discussion. If gasoline sales
data are not available in the inventory, the reviewer has several
options. First, the data shown in Table 6-1 could be used. The
reviewer would need to prorate the state gasoline data down to the
county level using population. The calculation would be:
(nonattainment area population/state population) x
state gasoline sales data
If this approach is not acceptable, the reviewer should contact
the individual state's transportation department or other similar
governmental agency to obtain county-specific fuel sales data.

7.0 LEVEL II REVIEW-AREA NON-HIGHWAY MOBILE SOURCES
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this section is to define Level II quality review
procedures for evaluating the area non-highway mobile source component of the
emission inventory submittal. The Level II review is presented in a checklist
format and addresses three types of review checks: completeness, procedures,
and consistency. Blank checklists for use in performing and documenting the
Level II quality review are included in Appendix A of this document. The
remainder of this section presents detailed instructions on how to use the
checklists in performing the Level II review.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING LEVEL II CHECKLIST
This section contains detailed instructions for completing the Level II
review checklist for area non-highway mobile sources. A blank review
checklist covering the area stationary source category is contained in
Appendix A., Table A-6. The instructions presented in this section are keyed
to the checklist numbering system found in the appendix. The instructions
contain text describing how to use the checklist, and a copy of the actual
checklist sections being described to give the reviewer a quick reference tool
as they are reading the instructions. If the guidelines in the instructions
are not met by the inventory, or if documentation is insufficient to determine
if guidelines were met, the box for that question should be checked "No".
Reviewers should utilize the comment column to describe specific
findings or to qualify their summary findings as deemed necessary. If
additional comment space is required, reviewers should attach pages as
necessary. The reviewer should also utilize the checklist comment column to
list the location (I.e., page number(s)) in the inventory document where a
particular item is found or discussed. This page number accounting is
important for two reasons: 1) follow-up comments directed to the preparing
agency should be page number specific, and 2) successive reviews performed by
EPA can benefit by avoiding duplicative review efforts necessary to find the
specific item in question.

Question
AREA NON-HIGHWAY MOBILE SOURCES
8.1 COMPLETENESS CHECK
8.1.1 For a typical MSA the area non-highway mobile source Inventory is
expected to contain emission sources in each of the listed
categories. The reviewer can quickly determine if these
categories are included by reviewing the overall Inventory summary
tables. To assist the reviewer in locating this information,
Table 3-2 shows an example of a summary table generated using PC-
SAMs. If one or more of the categories are not included, review
the inventory documentation and describe applicable explanations
(and page numbers) in the comment column. If emissions estimates
were not developed for all three of the pollutants check the "no"
box and denote in the comment column.

8.2 PROCEDURES CHECK
8.2.1 If agricultural activities occur within the MSA boundaries,
emission estimates should be developed for agricultural equipment.
If the inventory submittal states that no agricultural activities
take place within the MSA area then the reviewer should not check
either the "yes" or "no" box but instead write "N/A no
agricultural activities" in the comment column of questions 8.2.1
through 8.2.5 and reference the page number in the report where
that information is documented, and the reference sources used by
the preparing agency to reach such a conclusion. If the report
simply does not discuss emissions from agricultural equipment and
does not provide rationale for why emissions should not be
included then the reviewer should check the "no" box and write "no
estimate/no discussion" in the comment column of questions 8.2.1
through 8.2.5.
If emission estimates are provided for agricultural equipment,
review the documentation supporting the inventory submittal and
determine if equipment populations were determined from data in
Census of Agriculture. Denote in the comment column the report
page number where the information is documented. If the
documentation does not specify how equipment population were
derived check the "no" box.
8.2.2 Review the documentation supporting the inventory and determine if
an estimate of the number of cultivated acres in each of the MSA
counties was used to apportion agricultural equipment fuel use.
Denote In the comment column the report page number where the
information is documented.
8.2.3 Check the summary tables and determine if estimates of all three
pollutants are included.

8.0 INVENTORY REVIEW SUMMARY AND FOLLOW-UP ACTIVITIES
At the conclusion of the initial quality review process, the Region will
need to communicate its findings back to the inventory preparation agency and
the State. Similarly, the Region will also need to provide the Office of Air
Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS) with feedback on the status of the
inventory review activities. At a minimum, this initial communication should
include a copy of the completed checklist package found in Appendix A of this
document and a transmittal memo that summarizes the deficiencies in the
inventory as identified by the Region.
The language in the transmittal memo should be specific and directed at
the areas needing improvement. The memo should not just list items not
contained in the inventory or just list mistakes. The language should
probably be more positive and directed. For example, the communication needs
to say specifically what is required and where in the Inventory the material
should be placed. The comments should tell the State exactly what they need
to do to change their inventory, how the Region wants it done, and why it
should be done this way. The Region should refer to the guidance materials
listed in Table 1-1 to provide backup support for their comments and
requirements.
When the Region has finished its review process, there will need to be a
coordinator of all review comments. Someone will need to examine Appendix A,
Table A-2 and determine the extent of the reviewers and proceed to gather and
collect all comments. If multiple people reviewed the same sections of the
inventory, the coordinator will have to assess all the comments and composite
them into a single set that represent the Region's position. If different
people were responsible for reviewing different parts of the Inventory (I.e.,
one for point sources, one for area, etc.), then the coordinator may only have
to pull together each set of comments and put them in a common package. The
Region needs to make sure it provides the State with a clear set of comments
that are consistent and non-conflicting.
emo.023*
8-1
-------
Although each Inventory and each Region will be unique, an example
outline for a transmlttal memo to send a Region's quality review comments to
the Inventory preparation agency Is provided In Table 8-1. In general, the
memo should summarize the attached checklist, summarize Inventory
deficiencies, request clarifications, summarize required actions and changes
necessary, and provide a suggested schedule for revising the Inventory. The
memo should also provide a list of Regional contact people for specific
Inventory parts that the State can address questions to If It needs to
reconcile a comment.
Following the submittal of Its comments, the Region should monitor the
progress of the preparing agency In revising the Inventory. Upon receipt of
the revised Inventory, the Region will need to evaluate 1t to ensure that all
previously Identified deficiencies have been corrected to the Region's
satisfaction. If the revised Inventory satisfies the requirements, the Region
should send some type of correspondence to the State Indicating that the State
has met the base year Inventory requirements for that nonattainiment area.
This correspondence should be copied to OAQPS. If the revised inventory still
does not conform to the Region's requirements, additional documentation of
deficiencies will have to be made and sent to the preparing agency. This
process should continue until all requirements have been met.

Required Actions/Corrections
- The Region should state precisely what revisions to the draft
inventory the State should make in order to gain approval of
the inventory
- The required revisions should be clearly tied to the specific
deficiencies outlined previously
- The Region should state clearly what it expects to see in terms
of content and format of the requested revisions
- Use examples as necessary and refer to the published guidance
for support
- In cases where additional documentation is needed, provide
specific guidance on what type of documentation is acceptable.
Do not make vague statements simply requesting more
documentation.
Schedule
- The Region should put forth to the State a tentative schedule
for making the revisions and responding with a revised inventory.
Contacts
- The Region should identify specific contact people at their
offices that should be called to reconcile comments on different
parts of the inventory. It is likely that the State may not
understand all or parts of some comments such that clarification
by the Region will be necessary.
