15 What if you don’t have local data? MOBILE6.2 includes national defaults for almost all inputs MOBILE6.2 includes national defaults for almost all inputs Minimum data requirements Minimum data requirements temperature, fuel volatility, and year of evaluation temperature, fuel volatility, and year of evaluation This will give you a less exact estimate for your area This will give you a less exact estimate for your area Use all local data that is available to you and supplement with defaults where necessary Use all local data that is available to you and supplement with defaults where necessary

16 Federal programs Do you need to worry about Tier 2, low sulfur gasoline and the Heavy-Duty Diesel Rule? Do you need to worry about Tier 2, low sulfur gasoline and the Heavy-Duty Diesel Rule? No. MOBILE6.2 already accounts for Federal rules. No. MOBILE6.2 already accounts for Federal rules. However, areas required to implement reformulated gasoline must specify this input into MOBILE6.2 However, areas required to implement reformulated gasoline must specify this input into MOBILE6.2

18 Completing the Analysis Average Speed vs. Link-Level Analysis Average Speed vs. Link-Level Analysis Average Speed Average Speed Treats each road functional classification as a whole Treats each road functional classification as a whole Example: One MOBILE6.2 run for freeways with single average freeway speed and VMT mix Example: One MOBILE6.2 run for freeways with single average freeway speed and VMT mix Freeway EF X Total VMT on Freeways = Emissions from freeway vehicles Freeway EF X Total VMT on Freeways = Emissions from freeway vehicles Repeat for arterials, collectors, etc…and sum the totals Repeat for arterials, collectors, etc…and sum the totals

19 Completing the Analysis Link-Level Link-Level Multiple MOBILE6.2 runs at different speeds for each roadway classification Multiple MOBILE6.2 runs at different speeds for each roadway classification Create a look-up table of EF based on speed and roadway type Create a look-up table of EF based on speed and roadway type Calculate emissions for each segment of roadway (link) based on classification and speed Calculate emissions for each segment of roadway (link) based on classification and speed Sum all of the link emissions together Sum all of the link emissions together
