    APPENDIX B STATIONARY POINT SOURCES Bureau of Air Quality Department of Environmental Protection This page blank for copying purposes. APPENDIX B-1 Preparation of Pennsylvania Point Source Inventories and Instructions for Completing the Annual Emissions Reporting Forms Bureau of Air Quality Department of Environmental Protection This page blank for copying purposes. A. Introduction This document describes the methodology used by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to develop inventories of air pollutants emitted as required by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Consolidated Emission Reporting Rule (CERR) (40 CFR Part 51, Subpart A). The 2002 inventory will also be the base year inventory for State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision development for PM2.5, 8- hour ozone and regional haze. The CERR requires the Commonwealth to report actual emissions for the following pollutants: sulfur oxides, volatile organic compounds (VOC), nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, lead and lead compounds, primary PM2.5, primary PM10, and ammonia (40 CFR 51.15(a)). The CERR lists primary PM as an optional pollutant for reporting purposes. The CERR does not require the submission of hazardous air pollutant emissions data. Emissions from point sources are reported for 65 of the Commonwealth’s 67 counties. Point source emissions from sources located in Allegheny County are reported directly to EPA by the Allegheny County Health Department. Point source emissions from sources located in Philadelphia Counties are reported directly by the Philadelphia County Health Department, Air Management Services. The annual emission inventory must be temporally resolved to provide seasonal data for air quality modeling purposes. Temporal adjustments to the annual inventory are made because of seasonal differences in the rate of emissions or activity, or to apportion emissions to a particular season or day.
