  3. Emission Inventory Types • Versions of 2002 EI for Performance Evaluation Modeling • Optional 2000-04 EI refinement for Baseline Visibility Conditions Modeling • 2018 EI for Projection Base Case Modeling • 2018 EI Control Strategy Scenarios (multiple versions, up to 5)

  4. 2002 Performance Evaluation Modeling EI Initial 2002 Performance Evaluation Modeling • Complete end of 2004 • Use "2002-like" interim EIs • Geographic Source Apportionment • Initial Natural/Anthropogenic

  5. 2002 Performance Evaluation Modeling EI, continued • Final 2002 Performance Evaluation Modeling • Complete first half 2005 • Use actual 2002 EIs • Final (revised) Geographic Source Apportionment • Final (revised) Natural/Anthropogenic • Basis of Relative Reduction Factors • Estimate to compare to 2002 monitored values • Compare to 2000-04 monitored baseline values • Last use of actual emissions

  6. 2000-04 Baseline Visibility Conditions EI Baseline Visibility Modeling • Complete mid-2005 • Use 2000-04 representative baseline period EIs for selected source categories (keep final 2002 for others) • Fire • Windblown Dust • Optional, may be done as sensitivity cases • Products • Estimate to compare to monitored baseline values • Substitute as basis for RRFs • Refined Geographic Source Apportionment • Refined Natural/Anthropogenic

  7. 2018 Base Case Projection EI 2018 Base Case Modeling • Complete mid-2005 • Prepare/Use emissions projections accounting for: • 1) emissions control rules/programs "on the books" as of 2004 • 2) Extrapolating from: • Final 2002 Performance Evaluation results, or • Baseline Visibility results • Is intermediate year (2009, 2010, 2015) needed for regional haze?

  8. 2018 Control Strategy EI Scenarios 2018 Control Strategy Modeling Scenarios #1, 2, 3 … • Exact names & purposes TBD by RPO region • Multiple versions, up to 5 • Complete early 2006 • Prepare/Use emissions changes accounting for: • 1) Emissions control program options (to be implemented by 2018) • 2) Extrapolating from 2018 Base Case Modeling results • Is intermediate year (2009, 2010, 2015) needed for regional haze?
