Sensitivity Analysis Study Considering the Selection of Appropriate Land-Use Parameters in AERMOD Modeling Analyses
In the near future AERMOD PRIME will officially replace the Industrial Source Complex Short-Term model, Version 3 (ISCST3) as the preferred Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) air dispersion model. Unlike the ISCST3 model that requires the simple selection of urban or rural default settings, the AERMOD dispersion model has a meteorological pre-processor (AERMET) that requires the input of ...

Comparison of Two Dispersion Models: A Bulk Petroleum Storage Terminal Case Study
In 65 FR 21506 (dated April 21, 2000), the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) proposed revisions to its air dispersion modeling guidance, found in 40 CFR 51, Appendix W (“Guideline on Air Quality Models”) that included replacing the Industrial Source Complex (ISC) model with the American Meteorological Society (AMS) / EPA Regulatory Model (AERMOD) as the regulatory default ...

U.S. EPA Releases 1-Hour NO2 NAAQS Modeling Guidance
The U.S. EPA Air Quality Modeling Group (AQMG) recently released a new guidance document for NO2 modeling. The document outlines procedures that can be used to calculate the NO2 design values for comparison to the new 1-hour NO2 National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). The new 1-hour NO2 standard of 100 ppb goes into effect on April 12, 2010. This 1-hour NO2 standard is based on the ...

Understanding and Adapting to New Dispersion Models
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has proposed revisions to its air dispersion modeling guidance1 (“Guideline on Air Quality Models”, or simply “Guideline”), found in 40 CFR 51 Appendix W.2 These revisions, once finalized, will create significant changes in the way that air quality analyses are performed in the US, and perhaps the most significant changes since the Guideline was ...

EPA establishes new 1-hour standard for sulfur dioxide
On June 2, 2010, the U.S. EPA established a new 1-hour primary National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for sulfur dioxide (SO2). The new 1-hour standard was set at the level of 75 parts per billion (ppb) calculated as the three-year average of the 99th percentile of the annual distribution of daily maximum 1-hour average concentrations. With the establishment of the new 1-hour SO2 standard, ...

Federal transport rule — the “new cair” round 1
On August 2, 2010, EPA proposed the long- awaited replacement for the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR), which was rejected in 2008 by the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. Now called the Transport Rule (TR) by EPA, the new rule revises the CAIR approach to conform with the court ruling. In this first version (Round 1) of TR, overall emission budgets for NOX are similar to the initial period in CAIR; ...
