    Slide 1:PM2.5 Implementation ProgramNew Jersey Perspective Sandra Krietzman, Bureau Chief New Jersey Dept. of Environmental Protection Bureau of Air Quality Planning sandy.krietzman@dep.state.nj.us

    Slide 2:Outline Characterization of the PM2.5 Problem in New Jersey Identification of Strategies NJ Workshop Regional Discussion of Strategies Conclusions

    Slide 3:New Jersey

    Slide 4:

    Slide 5:

    Slide 8:Results of CAIR modeling

    Slide 9:

    Slide 10:Key Pollutant = Sulfates

    Slide 13:2002 MANE-VU Region SO2 Emission Inventory Top 10

    Slide 14:2002 MANE-VU Region NOx Emission Inventory Top 10

    Slide 15:2002 MANE-VU Region PM2.5 Emission Inventory Top 10

    Slide 16:NJ OutreachReducing Air Pollution Together June 29, 2005 - First Workshop Six workgroups formed Diesel initiatives Gasoline Cars and Trucks Homes and Restaurants Non-Automobile Gasoline Engines Stationary Combustion Sources Volatile Organic Compounds

    Slide 17:Reducing Air Pollution Together (Continued) Summer of 2005 Workgroups meet - brainstorming sessions Fall/Winter 2005 Workgroups submit reports to NJDEP Air workshop - November 14, 2005 ~ 250 potential control measures May 17, 2006 – Second Workshop 60 white papers www.nj.gov/dep/airworkgroups/docs/wp_summary_table_web_2007.xls

    Slide 18:Regional Strategies OTC Reasonable Measures Workgroup Control Strategy Workgroup HEDD Regional Effort MARAMA Refineries

    Slide 19:Areas of Control Strategies under Consideration Electric Generating Units Heating Oil and Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers Residential Wood Combustion Diesel Fugitive Emissions - BMP

    Slide 20:EGUs – Oil and Gas HEDD (High Energy Demand Day) Mostly turbines/some oil boilers NOx reductions Short term 5/1/09 Long term 5/1/15 Sulfur in Oil

    Slide 21:EGUs – Coal Multipollutant Performance Standards SO2/NOx/PM2.5 – new rule Hg – existing rule CAIR NOx allocations Output-based Rule being adopted Greater CAIR retirement ratios Under consideration

    Slide 22:Low Sulfur Oil + ICI Boiler Strategy Distillate 500 ppm by 2012 (2010 if possible) 15 ppm by 2016 (2015 if possible) #4 Residual 0.5% by 2012 #6 Residual 0.3 to 0.5% by 2012

    Slide 23:Wood Combustion PM and VOC emissions contribute to Regional Haze Not as great an impact as sulfate More local impacts Nuisance and health reasons in addition to regional haze for addressing this category

    Slide 24:Wood Combustion - Control Options Public outreach and education programs Woodstove changeout programs to promote replacement of old equipment with cleaner burning equipment State requirements for new sources, stricter than federal NSPS State requirements for outdoor wood boilers/hydronic heaters Existing “no visible emission” requirement being enforced.

    Slide 25:

    Slide 26:Regulated Vehicles School Buses Solid Waste Vehicles Publicly owned or in a contract w/public entity Public & Private Commercial Buses Publicly-owned on-road vehicles Publicly-owned off-road equipment

    Slide 27:School Buses NJDEP adopt regulations Summer 07 Install closed crankcase technology Summer 09 Study to determine if tailpipe controls also necessary – Summer 07 If so, additional rules prioritized.

    Slide 28:Idling Enforce 3 minute idling limit for diesel powered vehicles. Extensive outreach and education campaign. Adopt rule amendments. Provide alternatives such as truck stop electrification. Encourage school districts, bus companies and parents to sign “No Idling pledge.”

    Slide 29:Idling - continued Local police can enforce Bus owner, school district and driver liable. Phase out exemption for sleeper berths in 2010. Tighten language for other exceptions.

    Slide 30:Diesel Inspection and Maintenance Inspection and maintenance program since 1998 for diesel vehicles. NJDEP limits amount of visible emissions or “smoke.” Reducing allowable smoke – proposal in July 2007. Diesel vehicles greater than 18,000 pounds must go to annual emissions inspection at Diesel Emissions Inspection Center. State police also pull over vehicles on highways to check emissions (and safety issues).

    Slide 31:Summary of Strategies Point sources: EGU Performance strategies Point and area sources: Fuel strategies Area sources: Wood combustion Onroad and nonroad sources: Diesel idling reductions, Diesel idling law, I/M program
