Update on WRAP Input to NEI Re-Engineering Process

This update discusses the recent NEI Task Force meeting in Spokane, WA, where the focus was on WRAP input to the NEI re-engineering process. Topics covered include SCC code issues, dust emissions, fire emissions standards, using NEI-formatted data for modeling analysis, and next steps.

  1. Update on WRAP Input toNEI Re-Engineering Process Emissions Forum Meeting Spokane, WA October 18-19, 2006

  2. NEI Task Force • Led by Doug Solomon • ~25 people on E-Mail list, 10 of whom are from EPA • NEI_Task_Force@epamail.epa.gov • Chris Ramsdell, Brenda Harpring, Bob Downing, Jeff Stocum from Emissions Forum • Monthly calls • 10/17 Call – discussed: • Business Process Report Comments and Responses • Facility Inventory and Point Emissions Proposals

  3. NEI Task Force – SCC code issues reported • Allow more finely resolved marine SCC codes while keeping the higher level codes active, so that emissions could be reported according to the level of detail available for that geographic area. • Evaluate European approach - the classification system is called “SNAP” codes - Selected Nomenclature for sources of Air Pollution”.  The SNAP list can be found at:http://reports.eea.europa.eu/EMEPCORINAIR4/en/, then click on “Content” tab • Dust emissions level of detail • Fire emissions – content/format standards

  4. NEI Task Force – Using NEI-formatted data for modeling analysis • EGU data – CAMD vs. permitting agency • Speciation profile – assignment by SCC? • Temporal profiles – day of week and diurnal • Processing of files – combining files in SMOKE prevents subsequent analysis at level data were reported • Others?

  5. Next Steps • Participate in calls • Forward write-up of SCC & modeling data applications
