Overview

Ground level ozone KC Region ozone history Form of standard Future steps Contingency measures

Ground Level Ozone

Identical to upper atmosphere ozone Caused by chemical reaction of volatile organic

compounds (VOCs) and NOx

Concentrations higher when conditions are hot,

sunny with light winds

VOCs and NOx from cars, trucks, small

businesses, utilities & large industry

Can trigger breathing problems, particularly in

those with respiratory conditions

KC Region Ozone History

From mid-1970s through early 1990s, KC

exceeded 1-hour ozone standard

In 1992, area was redesignated attainment for 1-

hour ozone standard

KC violated 1-hour ozone standard in mid-1990s KC has met the 1-hour standard in 2000s EPA issued 8-hour standard in 1997--- 084 ppm

(84 ppb)

KC designated attainment for 8-hour standard in

May, 2005

8-Hour Ozone Standard Determination

Design Value for a Metropolitan Statistical Area

is the highest value from any site

Three year average of the fourth highest daily

maximum

Violation occurs if three-year average exceeds

84 ppb

Kansas City would have violated standard in

mid-80s, 90s, 2000 & 2002

Consequences of Nonattainment Designation

RACT rules LAER review for NSR permits Transportation plan conformity with SIP Curtails economic development State Implementation Plan revision Additional inventory and modeling work Potential sanctions for failure to meet

standard

8-Hour Ozone Monitoring Data for Kansas City

4th High (ppm)

**4th high must be equal to or lower than this value for the three-year average (design value) <= 0.084 ppm. *2006 data are current through 8/15/06 and have not gone through final QA/QC

Are We Critical Yet?

*2006 data are current through 8/15/06 and have not gone through final QA/QC **4th high must be equal to or lower than this value for the three-year average (design value) <= 0.084 ppm.

Emissions Source Categories

Point: Permitted sources of pollutant

emissions.

Area: Sources below the permit cutoffs:

dry cleaners, auto body painting, house painting and solvent use.

Mobile On-road and Off-road: autos,

trucks, planes, trains, construction, farm equipment & lawn and garden equip.

Maintenance Plan Contingency Measures

Primary focus on NOx reductions Phased approach

First trigger at 85 ppb Large NOx sources in planning area first Second trigger at 88 or 90 ppb or trend

based

VOC reductions concurrent with Phase 1 and

2 NOx reductions

Idling reduction

Proposed Kansas Phase I Controls

Phase I: Reduce NOx emissions from point

sources > 1000 tons of actual emissions/ year in Wyandotte and Johnson Counties

Wall-fired EGUs in planning area Furnaces

Diesel Idle Reduction Diesel engine computer chip reflash

slide-22

Proposed Missouri Phase I -Controls

EGUs under CAIR that implement controls

early

Ethanol mandate waiver in maintenance area

during the ozone season

Diesel idle reduction

slide-23
SLIDE 23

Phase II - Missouri and Kansas

Selections made from a menu of control

measures

Based on most beneficial controls

according to modeling and inventory growth determinations

slide-24
SLIDE 24

Proposed Kansas Phase II Controls

100 ton NOx sources

Cyclone EGUs in planning area Furnaces EGU units and RICE units outside of planning

area that contribute to KC ozone problem

slide-25
SLIDE 25

25

Phase II - Missouri Point Source Controls

Reductions in NOx emissions from all point

sources >100 tons of actual emissions in Clay, Platte and Jackson Counties

EGUs and cogenerators not included in

CAIR

Other large NOx point sources

Lower major source VOC threshold to 75 tpy Emissions offsets of 1.1:1.0

Phase II - Missouri Area and Mobile Source Controls

VOC controls for Architectural and Maintenance

coatings

Gas cap testing program Eliminate the 1 psi waiver for 10% ethanol fuel

in the maintenance area during the ozone season
