What Is An Emissions Inventory?



A Report of actual emissions of regulated
pollutants during the previous year
Describes the Processes that are the
source of the emissions
Describes how the emissions are released
(e.g., Fugitive vs. Stack)

What’s New for
2011 Reporting?



Very little – A consolidation year
Large effort in 2010 to improve HAP reporting from
combustion processes was very successful
Continued need to improve data quality
• Major submission to National Emissions Inventory for 2011

CROMERR (electronic signature requirements)
• Not yet required for Emissions Inventory reporting
• Same password email sent to Responsible Official as in
previous years

Greenhouse Gas Reporting

In response to the FY2008 Consolidated
Appropriations Act, EPA issued 40 CFR 98
Mandatory Greenhouse Gas Reporting

Under the rule, suppliers of fossil fuels or industrial
greenhouse gases(GHG), manufacturers of vehicles
and engines, and facilities that emit 25,000 metric
tons or more per year of GHG emissions are required
to submit annual reports to EPA starting with
the 2010 reporting year.

Pollutants: carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4),
nitrous oxide (N2O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFC),
perfluorocarbons (PFC), sulfur hexafluoride (SF6),
and other fluorinated gases including nitrogen
trifluoride (NF3) and hydrofluorinated ethers (HFE)

Greenhouse Gas Reporting


Federal requirement – DEQ is not involved in
the implementation or reporting of the
Greenhouse Gas Inventory
EPA Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program


EPA Greenhouse Gas Applicability Tool



Other Issues
 Air Quality Operating Fees
 Rule changes approved in June 2011
 No change to existing per ton fees for permitted
point sources
 Allows feeing of area sources with MACT
requirements
- But not being implemented at this time
 Permit fees would be adjusted
