Executive Summary

This Updating and Screening Assessment (USA) for 2012 is Phase 1 of the 5th round of the Air Quality Review and Assessment process.

The USA has been produced in accordance with guidance issued by Defra for reporting progress under the system of Local Air Quality Management. The role of the report is to chart the progress made by the Council in improving air quality since the publication of the 2009 USA and subsequent Annual Progress Reports.

The USA identifies all new pollutant sources, existing sources that have undergone relevant change, and any new or changed receptor locations relevant to those sources. Two diffusion tube monitoring locations are identified by the report where the annual mean NO2 objective was exceeded in 2011. For all other monitoring locations, the report concludes there is no risk of any air quality objective being breached at any location of relevant exposure within the East Riding of Yorkshire.

In line with national policy, the Council will next produce an Annual Progress Report in 2013, which will include further assessment, supported by additional monitoring, of the two identified exceedences in order to determine whether there is a need to proceed to a Detailed Assessment.

1 Introduction 1.1 Description of Local Authority Area

The East Riding of Yorkshire is a large unitary authority with an area of 240,768 hectares and an estimated population of 337,000. Overall population density is very low, with only 1.4 people per hectare. Based on 2009 data from the Office of National Statistics (ONS), the largest town is Bridlington in the north east of the district, with 39,700 residents (although this is swelled dramatically by the influx of tourists during the summer months), the other major settlements being Beverley (32,200 – including Molescroft and Woodmansey); Goole (19,900) and Cottingham (17,900). Well over half the population reside in rural communities, many of which are small, scattered and geographically isolated. In total there are 333 settlements, ranging from large towns to small, isolated hamlets and farmsteads.

Traditionally the area has been associated with agriculture and 95% of the land is still in some form of agricultural use today. Tourism is of particular importance along the long coastal strip, whilst pockets of industry, including agricultural and aeronautical engineering, transport and distribution, glass manufacture, food and drinks manufacture and chemical production, are to be found inland in close proximity to the main conurbations. Natural gas refining is carried out in the far south east of the area whilst the inland port of Goole, served by vessels operating along the rivers and Ouse has long been associated with the handling of coal and other materials. Mineral production is still important to the region, with the chalk uplands of the Wolds having a long historical link with quarrying.

East Riding's rail network primarily comprises services along the Hull to Scarborough line (via Cottingham, Beverley, and Bridlington), Hull to Doncaster/Sheffield line (via Brough and Goole), Hull to Leeds line (via Brough and Selby) and Hull to London line. Major Road links include the eastern section of the M62/A63 to Hull, the A164 (Humber Bridge to Beverley), the A1079 (Hull to York), the A614 (Goole to Bridlington) and the A165 (Hull to Bridlington).

Industrial sources of air pollution external to but capable of affecting air quality within the East Riding of Yorkshire include the Trent valley power stations to the south and the Aire valley power stations to the west. 1.2 Purpose of Report

This report fulfils the requirements of the Local Air Quality Management process as set out in Part IV of the Environment Act (1995), the Air Quality Strategy for England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland 2007 and the relevant Policy and Technical Guidance documents. The LAQM process places an obligation on all local authorities to regularly review and assess air quality in their areas, and to determine whether or not the air quality objectives are likely to be achieved. Where exceedences are considered likely, the local authority must then declare an Air Quality Management Area (AQMA) and prepare an Air Quality Action Plan (AQAP) setting out the measures it intends to put in place in pursuit of the objectives.

LAQM USA 2012 6

East Riding of Yorkshire Council

The objective of this Updating and Screening Assessment is to identify any matters that have changed which may lead to risk of an air quality objective being exceeded. A checklist approach and screening tools are used to identify significant new sources or changes and whether there is a need for a Detailed Assessment. The USA report should provide an update of any outstanding information requested previously in Review and Assessment reports.

1.3 Air Quality Objectives

The air quality objectives applicable to LAQM in England are set out in the Air Quality (England) Regulations 2000 (SI 928), The Air Quality (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2002 (SI 3043), and are shown in Table 1.1. This table shows the objectives in units of microgrammes per cubic metre g/m3 (milligrammes per cubic metre, mg/m3 for carbon monoxide) with the number of exceedences in each year that are permitted (where applicable).

East Riding of Yorkshire Council 1.4 Summary of Previous Review and Assessments

East Riding of Yorkshire Council published stage 1 of its first round of review and assessment in March 1999 and found that further assessment in the form of a 2nd and 3rd stage review was required in respect of nitrogen dioxide, sulphur dioxide and particulates (PM10). The combined stage 2 & 3 assessment, published in April 2001 concluded that all objectives for the three pollutants would be met by the relevant target dates

The second round of review and assessment commenced in 2003 with an Updating and Screening Assessment (USA), compiled in accordance with the policy1 and technical2 guidance issued by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra). The USA concluded that there was no risk of exceeding any of the Air Quality Objectives at any location of relevant exposure within the East Riding of Yorkshire. Progress Reports in 2004 and 2005 continued to support the conclusions of the USA.

Round three, consisting a further USA, produced in April 2006, and Progress Reports in 2007 and 2008, again concluded there was no risk of exceeding any Air Quality Objective at any location of relevant exposure within the East Riding of Yorkshire.

Round four, consisting the 2009 USA and Progress Reports in 2010 and 2011, was compiled in accordance with the revised policy3 and technical4 guidance.

One diffusion tube monitoring location identified an exceedence of the annual mean NO2 objective in 2010, although this was back in compliance in 2011. The relatively large increase in the annual mean recorded in 2010 resulted from a combination of the effects of the exceptionally severe winter conditions, the introduction of a temporary one-way system in Beverley and from further hold-ups as a result of temporary traffic control measures affecting the interchange with the A1079 York Road. For all other locations of relevant exposure within the East Riding of Yorkshire, round four re-affirmed the previously reported position, identifying no need for the Council to proceed to a Detailed Assessment for any pollutant in relation to any relevant Air Quality Objective.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council

2.1.2 Non-Automatic Monitoring Sites

A network of nitrogen dioxide diffusion tubes is deployed at kerbside locations across the Council’s area (see Table 2.2). Tubes supplied and analysed under contract by South Yorkshire Air Quality Samplers (SYAQS) are prepared using the 50% TEA in Acetone method, in accordance with procedures set out in the Harmonisation Practical Guidance.

Kerbside tubes are compared to the reference monitoring method in a co-location study, using the chemiluminescence analyser at the Beverley Kerbside automatic monitoring station (see Fig 2.1). The bias adjustment factor (0.956) derived from this co-location study is applied to all annual mean diffusion tube data presented in this report. The reported adjustment factor for SYAQS in 2011 is (0.87) (see Fig 2.3).

2.2 Comparison of Monitoring Results with AQ Objectives

Monitoring data are reviewed and assessed in accordance with the guidance given in Box 5.2 of Chapter 5 of LAQM. TG(09)

2.2.1 Nitrogen Dioxide

Mapped Estimated Background Concentrations

Estimated annual mean background concentrations for NOX and NO2 for each 1km x 1km grid of the UK have been mapped from 2010 base-year maps and projections for each year up to 2020 can be accessed at: http://laqm.defra.gov.uk/maps/maps2010.html

Automatic Monitoring Data

East Riding of Yorkshire Council operates real-time air quality monitoring stations at three kerbside locations; two in Beverley and one in the village of Preston, near Hull (see Fig’s 2.1 & 2.2). Nitrogen dioxide concentrations at each of these locations are measured using reference method chemiluminescence analysers.

Monitoring results for 2009, 2010 and 2011 are presented in tables 2.3a and 2.3b below.

-3 No annual mean NO2 concentration at any monitoring location exceeds 40gm .

LAQM USA 2012 13

East Riding of Yorkshire Council

No monitoring site has recorded more than 18 1-hour means above 200gm-3, or (where the period of valid data is less than 90% of a full year) has a 98th percentile of 1-hour concentrations exceeding 200gm-3.

A discernible increasing trend is evident in the annual mean NO2 concentration at the Beverley Kerbside monitoring site when viewed over the period 2001 to 2011 (figure 2.4). Trends for the other two automatic monitoring sites are not reported, since neither has been in situ for 5 or more years.

Comparison of annual mean diffusion tube results for the last three years are presented in Table 2.4b below.

Trends in annual mean NO2 concentrations from kerbside diffusion tube monitors in- situ for at least 5 years are shown in figures 2.5 to 2.9.

Table 2.4a shows two monitoring locations (No.3 – Rawcliffe Road, Goole & No.20 – Front Street, Middleton-on-the-Wolds) as recording an annual mean NO2 concentration exceeding 40gm-3.

Tube No.3 has been in situ for 3 years; the previous highest recorded result for this location is 36gm-3 in 2010. The monitoring location is adjacent a set of traffic lights on the A614, the main route into Goole from junction 36 of the M62 motorway. It is probable the increase in annual mean NO2 concentration recorded in 2011, is as a consequence of traffic diverted between junctions 36 and 37 of the M62 for the duration of carriageway repairs for part of the year. Monitoring continues at this location and further assessment will be undertaken as part of the 2013 Progress Report to determine whether a Detailed Assessment is required.

Tube No.20 has been in situ for just 2 years, recording an annual mean NO2 concentration in 2010 of 34gm-3. The monitoring location is at the kerbside of the A614, the main route between the M62 and the coastal resort of Bridlington, as it passes through the village of Middleton–on-the-Wolds. Monthly NO2 concentrations exceeded 40gm-3 for eleven months out of twelve during 2011 (see Fig. A3), compared with just six out of twelve in 2010. It is not known at this stage which is more representative of the norm for this location. To better characterise the situation in the village, a total of 4 tubes has now been deployed along this section of the route, the results to be reported and discussed in the 2013 Progress Report.

Tube No.10 (Queensgate, Beverley), having recorded an annual mean NO2 concentration of 42gm-3 in 2010, has, as predicted, returned to below the 40gm-3 objective level. At 39gm-3 the 2011 annual mean concentration is still only marginally within the objective level and monitoring continues at this location.

2.2.2 PM10

East Riding of Yorkshire Council operates real-time air quality monitoring stations at three kerbside locations; two in Beverley and one in the village of Preston, near Hull (see Fig’s 2.1 & 2.2). PM10 concentrations at each of these locations are measured using TEOM© instruments and the data corrected using the Volatile Correction Model (VCM).

Monitoring results for 2009, 2010 and 2011 are presented in table 2.5a and 2.5b below. Data capture for Grovehill in 2011 was 89%. 90th percentiles are presented in accordance with paragraph 3.16 of LAQM. TG(09).

-3 No monitored annual mean PM10 concentration exceeds 40gm .

No monitoring site has recorded more than 35 exceedences of the 50gm-324-hour mean, or has a 90thpercentile of 24-hour concentrations exceeding 50gm-3.

2.2.3 Summary of Compliance with AQS Objectives

East Riding of Yorkshire Council has examined the results from monitoring in the district. With the exception of 2 diffusion tube monitoring locations, concentrations are all below the relevant objectives.

A previously identified exceedence at a separate diffusion tube monitoring location is once again below the relevant objective.

The Council has concluded there is no need to proceed to a Detailed Assessment at this stage.

Further assessment of the two areas of potential exceedence will be undertaken and reported as part of the Annual Progress Report in 2013.

Satisfactorily robust Air Quality Assessment has been undertaken for each of these proposed plants. In each case it has been concluded that the operation will not have a significant impact on local air quality and is unlikely to lead to an exceedence of any relevant air quality objective.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council has assessed the biomass combustion plant, and concluded that it will not be necessary to proceed to a Detailed Assessment.

6.2 Biomass Combustion – Combined Impacts

East Riding of Yorkshire is predominantly rural, with well over half the population residing in rural communities, many of which are small, scattered and geographically isolated. Consequently, population (and, hence, housing) density across much of the area is low and whilst some wood combustion takes place, domestic PM10 emissions do not meet the specified criteria.

LAQM USA 2012 30 East Riding of Yorkshire Council

Previous assessment has identified a low incidence of solid fuel combustion (including biomass) within the main urban population centres, the majority of residential and commercial premises being fuelled by gas.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council has assessed the biomass combustion plant, and concluded that it will not be necessary to proceed to a Detailed Assessment.

6.3 Domestic Solid-Fuel Burning

East Riding of Yorkshire is predominantly rural, with well over half the population residing in rural communities, many of which are small, scattered and geographically isolated. Consequently, population (and, hence, housing) density across much of the area is low and domestic PM10 and SO2 emissions do not meet the specified criteria.

Previous rounds of review and assessment have identified a low incidence of solid fuel combustion within the main urban population centres, the majority of residential and commercial premises fuelled by gas. No significant change affecting any relevant 500m x 500m grid has since been identified.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council confirms that there are no areas of significant domestic fuel use in the Local Authority area.

Previous rounds of review and assessment have considered PM10 emissions from fugitive and uncontrolled sources. No additional sources likely to give rise to significant dust emissions, or additional relevant exposure to any existing sources, have been subsequently identified.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council confirms that there are no potential sources of fugitive particulate matter emissions in the Local Authority area.

8 Conclusions and Proposed Actions

8.1 Conclusions from New Monitoring Data

Automatic monitoring data for the period January to December 2011 continue to demonstrate that Air Quality Objectives for NO2 & PM10 are met at all three roadside monitoring locations.

This includes the second full year’s worth of data from the additional automatic monitoring of NO2 & PM10 concentrations at the Grovehill Road roundabout in Beverley, originally proposed in the 2009 Updating and Screening Assessment. These data will be used to assess any potential impact on air quality in this vicinity resulting from the predicted increase in traffic volumes as a consequence of the bringing into operation of the Beverley Southern Relief Road (BSSR).

Queensgate, Beverley

During 2010, one diffusion tube monitoring location (No.10 – Queensgate, Beverley) -3 recorded an annual mean NO2 concentration exceeding 40gm (see Table 2.4a). The highest result previously returned for this location was 35gm-3.

This monitoring location lies on the A164, one of the main routes into the town from Hull and its outlying settlements. It is probable that the relatively large increase in the annual mean recorded in 2010 resulted from a combination of the effects of the exceptionally severe winter conditions, the introduction of a temporary one-way system along Eastgate, Beverley and from further hold-ups as a result of temporary traffic control measures introduced during alterations to the Jock’s Lodge interchange with the A1079 York Road. Since the opening of this new, light-controlled interchange, while year-on-year vehicle numbers remain essentially unchanged (DfT traffic count data indicate a slight reduction), traffic now flows more freely along the route and the annual mean for 2011 has, as predicted, returned to compliance with the 40gm-3 objective level.

At 39gm-3 the 2011 annual mean concentration is still only marginally within the objective level. Over the previous nine year monitoring period, with the exception of a low of 27gm-3 recorded in 2003 and the 2010 high of 42gm-3, all other results fall within the range 30 -35gm-3 (see Fig 2.6b). Monitoring continues at this location and further assessment will be undertaken and reported as part of the 2013 Progress Report. As previously reported, work is scheduled to commence on the construction of Beverley Southern Relief Road (BSRR), the bringing into operation of which will drastically reduce the volume of traffic using this route and is therefore predicted to further reduce NO2 concentrations.

Two monitoring locations (No.3 – Rawcliffe Road, Goole & No.20 – Front Street, Middleton-on-the-Wolds) recorded annual mean NO2 concentrations for 2011 that exceeded the 40gm-3 objective level.

LAQM USA 2012 33 East Riding of Yorkshire Council

Rawcliffe Road, Goole

Tube No.3 has been in situ for 3 years, the previous highest recorded result for this location being 36gm-3 in 2010. The monitoring location is adjacent a set of traffic lights on the A614, the main route into Goole from junction 36 of the M62 motorway. The increase in annual mean NO2 concentration recorded in 2011, is likely as a consequence of traffic diverted between junctions 36 and 37 of the M62 for the duration of carriageway repairs for part of the year. Monitoring continues at this location and further assessment will be undertaken as part of the 2013 Progress Report to determine whether a Detailed Assessment is required.

Front Street, Middleton-on-the-Wolds

Tube No.20 has been in situ for just 2 years, recording an annual mean NO2 concentration in 2010 of 34gm-3. The monitoring location is at the kerbside of the A614, the main route between the M62 and the coastal resort of Bridlington, as it passes through the village of Middleton–on-the-Wolds. Monthly NO2 concentrations were above 40gm-3 for eleven months out of twelve in 2011, compared with six months out of twelve in 2010. It is not known at this stage which is more representative of the norm for this location. To better characterise the situation in the village, a total of 4 tubes has now been deployed along this section of the route. Further assessment of the results will be reported and discussed in the 2013 Progress Report to determine whether Detailed Assessment is required.

Whilst trend analysis of diffusion tube results shows some kerbside locations still displaying a steady increase in NO2 concentrations (see section 2.2.1), no other exceedence of the annual mean NO2 objective is identified by 2011 diffusion tube data.

8.2 Conclusions from Assessment of Sources

The assessment of new or significantly changed sources has not identified the need to proceed to a Detailed Assessment for any prescribed pollutant. No potential exceedence of a relevant Air Quality Objective as a result of such sources is identified.

Satisfactorily robust air quality assessments have been submitted in relation to all new or proposed industrial sources identified, concluding that each is unlikely to lead to an exceedence of any Air Quality Objective.

No significant changes affecting other transport related sources or commercial, domestic or fugitive emissions have been identified by the assessment.

8.3 Proposed Actions

The Updating and Screening Assessment has not identified the need to proceed to a Detailed Assessment for any Pollutant in relation to any Air Quality Objective.

LAQM USA 2012 34 East Riding of Yorkshire Council

As reported in 8.1 above, additional diffusion tubes have been deployed along Front Street, Middleton-on-the-Wolds to better characterise any potential impact on annual mean NO2 concentrations at relevant receptor locations resulting from traffic flows along the A614. Assessment of the results to determine whether the exceedence recorded in 2011 constitutes a ‘one-off’ situation or is representative of a sustained increase in NO2 concentration requiring the Council to proceed to a Detailed Assessment will be discussed in the 2013 Progress Report.

The Council’s next course of action will be to submit an Annual Progress Report in 2013.

Discussion of Choice of Factor to Use Only one of the sites reported for SYAQS in 2011 on the Review & Assessment Helpdesk Website is identified as being a kerbside location (see Fig A1). The Council’s kerbside co-location site is therefore considered to be more representative for this study.

Kerbside tubes are compared to the reference monitoring method in a co-location study, using the chemiluminescence analyser at the Beverley Kerbside automatic monitoring station on Admiral Walker Road (see Fig 2.1). The bias adjustment factor (0.956) derived locally from this co-location study (see Fig A3) is applied to all annual mean diffusion tube data presented in this report, in preference to the factor derived from the National Diffusion Tube Bias Adjustment Spreadsheet (0.87).

PM Monitoring Adjustment

PM10 monitoring data at all automatic monitoring locations are collected using TEOM© instruments. TEOM© data are corrected using the Volatile Correction Model (VCM). Examples of VCM parameters for each of the three automatic monitoring stations are provided in Fig’s A4 – A6.
