Air Quality Conformity Analysis Calculation Procedures for Determining Air Emissions In order to evaluate the applicability of this Clean Air Act statute, annual air emissions were calculated for each of the three mitigation tasks. Air emissions were estimated based on equipment types, engine sizes, and estimated hours of operation. The calculations made were of a "screening" nature using factors provided for diesel engines in the USEPA AP-42 Emission Factor document (EPA 1995). The emission factors used were expressed in lb/hp-hr. The factors utilized were as follows: • 0.00668 lb CO/hp-hr • 0.031 lb NOx/hp-hr • 0.00072 lb PM10/hp-hr • 0.00205 lb SO2/hp-hr Emissions were calculated by simply multiplying the usage hours by the equipment horsepower and then by emission factor. To be complete, emissions were calculated for the four primary internal combustion engine related air pollutants. Total project emissions were calculated by adding the number of specific projects anticipated over a given 12-month period.

  • 2.5 Water Transportation
    2.5 WATER TRANSPORTATION The primary form of public water transportation on Cape Cod is ferry service, carrying passengers between the mainland and the islands of Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. A significant amount of freight is carried by water transportation as well. As a result, the region’s seaports and channels are vital in addressing the economic and transportation needs of Cape Cod. 2.5.1 CAPE COD SEAPORTS Cape Cod has 586 miles of tidal coastline, with many inlets and bays that provide marine access to the land. Seaports have been constructed along several of these bays and inlets to facilitate the transfer of people and goods from water to land transportation. Significant Cape Cod seaports are recognized in reports by the Army Corps of Engineers, the agency that maintains many of them. These and other seaports are discussed in this section. 2.5.1.1 Woods Hole Harbor Woods Hole Harbor, located in Falmouth, is a primary seaport for Cape Cod. It is split into two harbors by Juniper Point: Great Harbor and Little Harbor (Figure 2 and Figure 3). Little Harbor is located in the 550,000 square feet of water between Juniper and Nobska Points. In 1906, the Army Corps of Engineers completed a 1,600 foot-long channel from the Little Harbor to Vineyard Sound, as well as a turning basin. The Coast Guard widened and deepened both projects in the 1960s to a depth of 17 feet and a width of 200 and 400 feet respectively. Located on the western side of Little Harbor is a Coast Guard station, which is also used for recreational purposes.
