  2. CMAQ visibility modeling. BART Modeling. Data transfer and Data archiving. Budget Update. Plans for 2008. 2007 Task Updates

  3. Completed CMAQ 2018 Preliminary Reasonable Progress Case, results available at: www.cert.ucr.edu/aqm/308/cmaq.shtml CMAQ 2002 Planning Case Version D is in progress. CMAQ Modeling

  4. BART modeling was completed spring 2007. Have had to redo several simulations because of: Changes in emissions from states. Undocumented limitations in CALPUFF model inputs. Limited CALPUFF results to within 300 km of source in most cased Exception South Dakota where CAMx was also used Results similar to CALPUFF so fill back to CALPUFF Subject-to-BART screening modeling completed Some sources wanted to update modeling with corrections Not necessarily WRAP’s issue BART Modeling

  11. Data transfer: continuing to respond to requests. Not many requests in the last few months. Data archiving in progress. All critical data sets are being archived to hard disks. Copies of data will be available at 2 locations. Disks can be used to distribute data to states and tribes. The data archive plan is posted on the RMC webpage: www.cert.ucr.edu/aqm/308/data_transfer.shtml Data Transfer/Archiving

  12. Total 2007 Budget was $119k. Initial funding and amount remaining are: UCR: $52k, $10k remaining. ENVIRON: $41k, $11k remaining UNC: $26k, $8k remaining. Remaining funds budgeted for data transfer, completing current CMAQ simulation, TSS support and project management. Budget Status

  13. Possibility for future work include: Performing MM5 and visibility modeling for other years. Providing support for ozone and PM2.5 modeling. Evaluating changes and updates in emissions data, e.g., changes in ammonia and in biogenic NOx and VOC. Evaluating updates in model science algorithms, including new CMAQ release in 2008 with SOA updates. 2008 Work Plan
