Executive Summary

Epping Forest District is an attractive, predominantly commuter area on the north eastern edge of London. The district has a population of around 121,000, of which nearly three quarters live in the suburban towns of Loughton, Buckhurst Hill, Chigwell, Epping and Waltham Abbey. The remaining quarter live in the surrounding rural areas including large villages such as Roydon, Nazeing, North Weald and Theydon Bois. There are two large motorways in the district; the M25 and the M11 and the main source of air pollution in the district is road traffic.

The air quality in the district is reasonably good with increased concentrations of vehicle emissions related polutants limited to congested high street areas and busy junctions.

The District Council has completed all rounds of the review and assessment to date, which led to a number of detailed assessments for nitrogen dioxide. AQMA’s were declared for Epping High Street in 2010, and Bell Vue, Bell Common in 2011. The Epping High Street AQMA was declared on the basis of modelling information, but was revoked in 2011 on the completion of diffusion tube monitoring, which confirmed that nitrogen dioxide were below the air quality objective. All other reports judged that no AQMA was necesarry.

Only one air quality management area remains, that being for Bell Vue, Bell common. An action plan is in the process of being agreed but has yet to be accepted by defra. Revisions to the source apportionment calculation are required.

This updating and screening assessment builds on previous air quality work, and reports on 2011 monitoring data. The Updating and Screening Assessment has identified that there is no need to amend the boundaries of the current AQMA, and there is no need to declare any new AQMA.

No local developments have the potential to impact on air quality other than the commencement of the Epping Ongar Heritage Railway. The Updating and Screening Assessment has identified the need for additional monitoring in relation to the Epping Ongar Railway. The impact (if any) of the operation of the railway is being reviewed and

LAQM USA 2012 2 Epping Forest District Council will be reported in the 2013 Progress Report along with the need to progress to a Detailed assessment if necessary.

The Updating and Screening Assessment has not identified the need to progress to a detailed assessment at this time.

The proposed actions following this Updating and Screening Assessment are to:

Ø Revise the source apportionment assessment for the action plan for the current AQMA. Ø Continue with the existing nitrogen dioxide monitoring survey. Ø Monitor at the Epping Ongar Railway for nitrogen dioxide and time spent idling at stations to see if a detailed assessment is required. Ø Submit a progress report in 2013.

1 Introduction 1.1 Description of Local Authority Area

The air quality in the district is reasonably good with increased concentrations of vehicle emissions related polutants limited to congested high street areas and busy junctions.

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.

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 mg/m3 (milligrammes per cubic metre, mg/m3 for carbon monoxide) with the number of exceedences in each year that are permitted (where applicable).

Table 1.1 Air Quality Objectives included in Regulations for the purpose of LAQM in England Air Quality Objective Pollutant Concentration Measured as Date to be achieved by 16.25 µg/m3 Running annual mean 31.12.2003 Benzene 5.00 µg/m3 Running annual mean 31.12.2010 1,3-Butadiene 2.25 µg/m3 Running annual mean 31.12.2003 Carbon monoxide 10.0 mg/m3 Running 8-hour mean 31.12.2003 0.5 µg/m3 Annual mean 31.12.2004 Lead 0.25 µg/m3 Annual mean 31.12.2008 200 µg/m3 not to be exceeded more than 18 1-hour mean 31.12.2005 Nitrogen dioxide times a year 40 µg/m3 Annual mean 31.12.2005 50 µg/m3, not to be exceeded more than 35 24-hour mean 31.12.2004 Particles (PM10) (gravimetric) times a year 40 µg/m3 Annual mean 31.12.2004 350 µg/m3, not to be exceeded more than 24 1-hour mean 31.12.2004 times a year 125 µg/m3, not to be Sulphur dioxide exceeded more than 3 24-hour mean 31.12.2004 times a year 266 µg/m3, not to be exceeded more than 35 15-minute mean 31.12.2005 times a year

1.4 Summary of Previous Review and Assessments

The District Council has completed all rounds of the review and assessment to date. The review and assessment process has led to a number of detailed assessments for nitrogen dioxide, including:

Ø Epping High Street (2004) Ø Hainault Road, Chigwell (2005) Ø Waltham Abbey A121 Link Road (2005) Ø Goldings Hill, Loughton (2009) Ø Bell Vue, Bell common (2009) Ø Epping High Street (2011) Ø Loughton High Road (2011)

AQMA’s were declared for Epping High Street in 2010, and Bell Vue, Bell Common in 2011. The Epping High Street AQMA was declared on the basis of modelling information, but was revoked in 2011 on the completion of diffusion tube monitoring, which confirmed that nitrogen dioxide were below the air quality objective. All other reports judged that no other AQMA were necsarry.

Only one air quality management area remains, that being for Bell Vue, Bell common. The map of the boundary of the AQMA is shown in figure 1.1. An action plan is in the process of being agreed and the local residents have recently been consulted on the proposals. Residents feedback indicated that whilst they considered that the review and assessment of air qualitty was a good thing, they were happy to live by the road and considered that little could be done to achieve any actual improvement in air quaity.

The action plan has yet to be accepted by defra, and revisions to the source apportionment calculation are required.

2 New Monitoring Data 2.1 Summary of Monitoring Undertaken

2.1.1 Automatic Monitoring Sites

Epping Forest District Council no longer operates an automatic monitoring site. The former PM10 and NO2 monitoring station site was decommissioned due to a combination of equipment failure and absence of budget for new or replacement equipment.

2.1.2 Non-Automatic Monitoring Sites

Non-automatic monitoring undertaken in the district is exclusively via NO2 diffusion tubes. Currently, 52 diffusion tubes are installed at 22 monitoring locations. A map showing the monitoring locations is shown as figure 2.2. Site details are given in table 2.2. No changes to diffusion tube locations were made in 2011. The diffusion tubes were supplied by Environmental Scientific Groups (ESG) in accordance with the procedures set out in the Practical Guidance document. They are of the 50% Triethanolamine (TEA) in acetone preparation. ESG are classified as achieving ‘Good’ performance in the Workplace Analysis Scheme for Proficiency (WASP) Report for rounds 108-115. Further details on WASP performance can be found in Appendix A1.

We have not undertaken our own co-location study for the derivation of our own bias adjustment factor. In the absence of a local bias correction factor, the default bias correction factor for ESG analysis using the 50% TEA in acetone method has been used. This factor, calculated as 0.84 for 2011 based on 22 studies has been obtained from the defra air quality website (March 2012 release): http://laqm.defra.gov.uk/bias- adjustment-factors/national-bias.html See Appendix A2.

2.2 Comparison of Monitoring Results with AQ Objectives

2.2.1 Nitrogen Dioxide

Nitrogen Dioxide monitoring is undertaken in the Local Authority Area. The significant relevant source is exclusively road traffic emissions.

Automatic Monitoring Data

Automatic monitoring for nitrogen dioxide is not currently undertaken in the Local Authority Area. A chemiluminescent was in operation on a trial basis during the latter part of 2010, however the monitoring station was dogged with problems due to the use of old used equipment. The data obtained was not ratified or considered reliable for use. No data from the analysers is used in this report.

Diffusion Tube Monitoring Data

All diffusion tube monitoring locations indicate a downward trend of improving air quality for the 2011 calendar year (with the exception of s slight increase for Abbeyview roundabout and Lodge Lane Waltham Abbey). Both of the above sites however remain 3 below the 40 µg/m annual mean NO2 objective. See figure 2.4 for trend chart.

In reporting Nitrogen Dioxide monitoring data:

Ø The annual means have been bias adjusted (see table 2.5 and appendix A1). 3 Annual means in excess of the 40 μg/m annual mean NO2 objective have been highlighted in bold. Ø Single, duplicate and triplicate tubes are also indicated in table 2.5. Ø The full mean monthly values are detailed in Appendix A3. Ø No monitoring location had data capture of les than 9 months. Annualisation was therefore not required. Ø Only one site reported less than 90% valid data Pink, 252 High Road, Loughton (Bus stop) (see table 2.5). Ø Two sites were adjusted for distance where the receptor was set back from the monitoring location (Hainault Road and Goldings Hill) using the published AQ Consultants distance calculator (see table 2.5 and appendix A4).

LAQM USA 2012 14

Epping Forest District Council

3 The 40 µg/m annual mean NO2 objective has been exceeded in two locations, these being: Ø Bell Vue, Bell Common, Epping. Ø Pink, 252 High Road, Loughton (Bus stop).

Bell Vue, Bell Common are two roadside residential properties with a population of approximately 4 people. This is an existing AQMA for which an action plan is being developed.

Pink, 252 High Road, Loughton is a high street shop. A busy bus stop is located at this site where members of the public could possibly be present for periods of up to one hour.

Exceedences of 60 µg/m3 occurred at Bell Vue, Bell Common, Epping, indicating that the hourly objective may be at risk of being exceeded. No monitoring in relation to the hourly objective has been undertaken or is planned.

Exceedences of 60 µg/m3 did not occur at 252 High Road, Loughton, indicating that the hourly is not at risk of being exceeded. No monitoring in relation to the hourly objective has been undertaken or is planned.

Borderline locations are considered to be 36-39 µg/m3 are as follows:

Ø 249 High Road, Loughton (38 µg/m3) Ø 202 High Street, Epping (39 µg/m3) Ø 2 Church Hill Loughton (36 µg/m3) Ø 2 Lodge Lane, Waltham Abbey (38 µg/m3) however it should be noted that the actual receptor is set back from the monitoring location. No adjustment for distance has been made because the measured result is below the objective.

2.2.2 PM10

PM10 monitoring is not currently undertaken in the Local Authority Area. A beta gauge was in operation on a trial basis during part of 2011, however the monitoring station was dogged with problems due to the use of second-hand equipment, and the data obtained was not ratified, nor was it considered reliable for use.

2.2.3 Sulphur Dioxide

Sulphur Dioxide monitoring is not undertaken in the Local Authority Area. There are no significant relevant sources.

2.2.4 Benzene

Benzene monitoring is not undertaken in the Local Authority Area. There are no significant relevant sources.

2.2.5 Other pollutants monitored

No monitoring for any other pollutant (such as ozone, PAH, PM2.5) is undertaken in the Local Authority Area.

2.2.6 Summary of Compliance with AQS Objectives

Epping Forest District Council has measured concentrations of nitrogen dioxide above the annual mean objective for Bell Vue, Bell Common. An AQMA has already been declared for this location; therefore we will not proceed to a detailed assessment for this location.

Epping Forest District Council has measured concentrations of nitrogen dioxide at the annual mean objective for 252 High Road, Loughton. Exposure is representative of the general public. Because measured concentrations of Nitrogen dioxide are below 60 µg/m3 did not occur at 252 High Road, Loughton, we consider that the hourly is not at risk of being exceeded. A detailed assessment was undertaken for this location last year, and an AQMA was not declared. We will not proceed to a detailed assessment for this location as a result of this updating and screening assessment.

4 Other Transport Sources 4.1 Airports

The assessment for airports considers NO2. There are no airports in the Local Authority area, there is no need to proceed further with this part.

Epping Forest District Council confirms that there are no airports in the Local Authority area.

4.2 Railways (Diesel and Steam Trains)

The assessment for stationary trains considers SO2 emissions, while the assessment for moving diesel trains considers NO2 emissions.

A heritage railway using both steam and diesel trains was brought into operation at the beginning of June 2012, on a 6.2 mile stretch of the former Epping to Ongar branch of the London Underground. It provides weekend passenger services between Chipping Ongar and North Weald. A weekday service may also be operated, and the first of these is scheduled for August 2012. Current train timetabling and limitations with the layout of the line and signalling mean that idling trains are common on the line, and trains might wait for around 15 minutes at North Weald and Ongar stations. Gardens of relevant residential receptors are within 15m of the line.

4.2.1 Stationary Trains

Epping Forest District Council has identified locations not previously assessed where there is the potential for diesel or steam trains being stationary for periods of 15 minutes or more, with relevant receptors within 15m. We will not proceed to a Detailed Assessment for sulphur dioxide at this stage, but will undertake further monitoring of train waiting times in order to make an informed decision.

LAQM USA 2012 24 Epping Forest District Council

4.2.2 Moving Trains

Even though there are relevant ‘long term exposure’ receptors within 30m of the railway line, the number of moving trains is relatively small. At present, only two trains run a shuttle service between Ongar and North Weald, and North Weald and Coopersale as follows:

Ø 15 services from North Weald to Coopersale return (generally operated as a ‘top and tail’ train with a diesel loco at each end), and;

Ø 7 services from North Weald to Ongar return (generally operated as a ‘top and tail’ train with a steam loco at the east-bound end of the train, and a diesel loco at the west-bound end of the train)

Following the guidance provided in Box 5.1 and Box B2 of LAQM.TG(09), it is considered that the services does not constitute a substantial number of diesel 3 passenger trains. In addition, the annual mean NO2 concentration is less than 25 µg/m at 20.16 µg/m3.

Epping Forest District Council confirms that there are no locations with a large number of movements of diesel locomotives, and potential long-term relevant exposure within 30m, however a nitrogen dioxide monitoring exercise using diffusion tubes will be undertaken from July 2012 as a precautionary measure and for use as a basis for future decision-making.

4.3 Ports (Shipping)

The assessment for shipping considers sulphur dioxide emissions at busy ports with 5,000 and 15,000 movements per year and relevant exposure within 250 metres. There are no ports or shipping, there is no need to proceed further with this part.

Epping Forest District Council confirms that there are no ports or shipping within the Local Authority area.

8 Conclusions and Proposed Actions 8.1 Conclusions from New Monitoring Data

New monitoring data indicates that:

Ø The AQMA declared for NO2 (annual mean and hourly mean) for Bell Vue, Bell

Common remains valid. The measured concentration of NO2 is above the hourly objective, and above 60 µg/m3 indicating a risk that that the hourly objective could also be exceeded.

Ø 252 High Road Loughton (P!nk) is on the annual mean objective, for NO2 at 40 µg/m3. The site is a bust stop location, and is representative of personal

exposure for people waiting for busses. Measured concentrations of NO2 are however well below the risk of exceeding the hourly objective. Ø No further AQMA need be declared for borderline locations in Epping or Loughton High Street/High Road in order to prevent entering into any cycle of declaring and Revoking AQMAs, as this is not considered to be good practice or best use of resources. Ø There has been a slight overall improvement in measured air quality for most monitoring locations.

8.2 Conclusions from Assessment of Sources

No local developments have the potential to impact on air quality other than the commencement of the Epping Ongar Heritage Railway. The impact (if any) of the operation of the railway is being reviewed and will be presented in the 2013 Progress Report along with the need to progress to a Detailed assessment if deemed necessary.

8.3 Proposed Actions

The Updating and Screening Assessment has not identified the need to progress to a detailed assessment for any pollutant.

The Updating and Screening Assessment has identified the need for additional monitoring in relation to the Epping Ongar Railway.

LAQM USA 2012 30 Epping Forest District Council

The Updating and Screening Assessment has identified that there is no need to amend the boundaries of the current AQMA.

The Updating and Screening Assessment has identified that there is no need to declare any new AQMA.

The proposed actions following this Updating and Screening Assessment are as follows:
