Daily averages of PM10 concentrations measured at 3 air monitoring sites (Milano, Brescia and Cantu) in Jan- Mar 2006 in comparison with the EU daily limit value. POMI kick-off meeting 7 March, 2008
WPG 1. Identification of Air pollution origin - Source apportionment WPG 2. Transport Emissions Abatement – Technological options WPG 3. Air Quality Monitoring WPG 4. Integrated Assessment Collaborative research project in support to the reduction of atmospheric pollution in REGIONE LOMBARDIA. (2006-2010) Work-packages: POMI kick-off meeting 7 March, 2008
Identification of pollution sources in the Lombardy Region: Source apportionment by Chemical Analysis and Receptor Modelling WP1 Source Apportionment POMI kick-off meeting 7 March, 2008
WPG 1 Source Apportionment The work-package activities on particulate matter will be focused on two major activities, namely: i) a present state source apportionment of PM10 (PM 2.5) ii) a follow up source apportionment of PM10 after 2 years. The methodology to be used has developed and tested within the Integrated Krakow Project and is based upon exhaustive chemical and physical characterization of samples from ambient air and from major emission sources - combined with multivariate receptor modelling.

KRAKOW source apportionment Emission abatement strategies developed by Polish Authorities should focus on Coal (heating) POMI kick-off meeting 7 March, 2008
WPG 2. Transport Emissions Abatement Technological options. Research programme: -> Assessment of PM emissions reduction options for heavy-duty trucks -> Testing of advanced/innovative vehicle concepts -> Study of fuels, additives and retrofit systems for passenger cars -> Study of lube oil impact on 2-stroke moped emissions POMI kick-off meeting 7 March, 2008

1.1 Analysis of the existing Monitoring Network 1.2 Measuring and inter-comparison campaigns: 1.3 Quality Control of RL Network WPG 3 Air Quality monitoring • Quality control of PM measurements in the Lombardy Region Air Quality monitoring network POMI kick-off meeting 7 March, 2008
2) Support RL in the developments of new air quality assessment technologies and strategies: • Testing and development of new instrumentation and techniques, focusing on: • Evaluation of new sensors for continuous PM10/PM2.5 measurements with reduced sampling artefacts (e.g. TEOM-FDMS) • Semiconductor micro-sensors for gaseous pollutants • Potential use of remote sensing e.g. for emission inventories control 3) Impact of road transport on air pollution levels and on human exposure Measuring campaigns in urban hot spots, to be defined based on preliminary results obtained within the project.

WPG 4. Integrated Assessment Objectives: • Develop methodologies for the integrated assessment of the Regional Plans for the Air Quality • To assist the regional tools for Air Quality • emission inventories (INEMAR) • AQ models • Collaboration with other Regions of Po Valley and other European groups POMI kick-off meeting 7 March, 2008
WP4 Integrated Assessment • Integrated assessment • Air quality (POMI) POMI kick-off meeting 7 March, 2008
RIAT (I) The Regional Integrated Assessment Tool should be: • A tool to bring together data on pollutant sources (emission inventories), their respective contribution to atmospheric concentrations (S/R relationships) and human exposure, together with information on potential technological and other measures that may be used to reduce concentrations and their costs. • The RIAT will be built as a self-consistent IT tool, set-up in a modular way to facilitate further updates, flexible enough to be geographically versatile and user-friendly. It should be efficient in supporting the air quality decision making process. POMI kick-off meeting 7 March, 2008
