1 Air Quality Planning Update NJDEP Air Quality Planning Judy Rand, PE Environmental Engineer October 14, 2011

2 FIRST SOME BACKGROUND NAAQS   The Clean Air Act (CAA), requires EPA to set National Ambient Air Quality Standards for pollutants considered harmful to public health and the environment. (40 CFR part 50)   Primary standards set limits to protect public health.   Secondary standards set limits to protect public welfare, including protection against decreased visibility, damage to animals, crops, vegetation, and buildings.   Goal to Attain as Quickly as Practical and Maintain   Six "criteria" pollutants.

3 Pollutants   Criteria 1) 1)Ozone o oPrecursor pollutants primarily VOC and NOx, also CO 2) 2)Particulate Matter 2.5 and 10 o o Precursor pollutants primarily SO2 and NOx, also ammonia and VOC 3) 3)Lead 4) 4)Sulfur Dioxide 5) 5)Nitrogen Dioxide 6) 6)Carbon Monoxide   Regional Haze o oVisibility Goals at Federally Protected Class I Areas o oBrigantine Wilderness Area

4 NAAQS Implementation Steps 1) 1)NAAQS Promulgation 2) 2)Designations 3) 3)110(a) Infrastucture and Transport State Implementation Plan (SIP) 4) 4)Attainment Demonstration SIP 5) 5)Attainment of the Standard 6) 6)Clean Data Determination 7) 7)Redesignation 8) 8)Maintenance Plan

5 Nonattainment Area Requirements (Federal Clean Air Act, Section 172(c))   Emission Inventory   New Source Review (Permitting)   Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT)   Reasonable Further Progress (RFP) Demonstration   Reasonably Available Control Measures (RACM)   Control Measures necessary for attainment and RFP   Attainment Demonstration (modeling)   Transportation Conformity   Contingency Measures

8 New Jersey State Implementation Plan (SIP) Status   Ozone – –0.08 ppm   USEPA approved RFP, RACM, Conformity, RACT and Control Measures;   USEPA proposed disapproval of the attainment demonstration May 2009;   NJ’s Northern NAA: NJ has requested a Clean Data Determination;   NJ’s Southern NAA: NJ received a 1 year extension of the 2009 attainment date. – –0.075 ppm   NJ submitted designation recommendations April 1, 2009;   NJ recommended either a larger multi-state NAA, or the same as the 0.08 ppm NAAs;   EPA put them on hold pending the ozone reconsideration, but is now moving forward with implementation.   PM2.5 – –15 μg/m 3 annual   NJ submitted a final SIP March 2009. We are waiting for EPA action;   EPA promulgated a Clean Data Determination for NJ’s Northern NAA;   We expect EPA to propose a Clean Data Determination for NJ’s Southern NAA; – –35 μg/m3 24-hour   NJ will request a CDD from the USEPA for both NAA’s.   Regional Haze – –Submitted Jul 28, 2009, submitted BART portion in 2011, EPA has proposed APPROVAL on August 11, 2011.
