C.2.1.2 AIR QUALITY (AQ) SUPPORT
C.2.1.2.1 Introduction
This section of the PWS defines requirements for Contractor services to provide technical analyses and engineering support relative to AQ compliance at Robins AFB in accordance with federal and state environmental AQ permits, rules, and guidance. Submittals generated under this task order shall be used to demonstrate compliance with the 1990 Federal Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) and Chapter 391-3-1 of the Georgia Rules for AQ Control.
The Contractor shall furnish all services, materials, supplies, labor, equipment, plans, assessments, evaluations, studies, superintendence, travel and other resources as required, in connection with the work described in this PWS. The Contractor shall comply with applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and guidance; and perform all work in accordance with these requirements and any applicable agreements.
The Contractor shall ensure qualified and appropriately credentialed personnel with the proper experience in performing such services and the appropriate educational requirements and certifications/training are used throughout the duration of this project. During execution of the work, the Contractor shall provide adequate supervision and quality control to assure the accuracy, quality, completeness, and progress of the work.
The Contractor’s cost proposal shall include all costs for the work items as described herein and shall fully document all assumptions made for accomplishment of all tasks described in this PWS.
C.2.1.2.1.1 Background Information
Title V of the 1990 CAAA (i.e. Part 70) air permitting program has made a major impact on facilities throughout the United States and will continue to impact AQ compliance operations for many years to come. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) is still promulgating new regulations that are driven by the CAAA and is beginning to implement programs engendered by regulations adopted in the recent past. In many instances, facilities have been required to undergo detailed analyses of the impacts of their routine operations on air emissions, and the possible consequences of changes to their operations or sudden releases of air pollutants. Meanwhile, facilities that have been required to apply for Title V permits face a host of compliance requirements, including annual emission inventories, ongoing monitoring, record keeping and reporting requirements, as well as periodic compliance status reporting.
The Georgia Environmental Protection Division (GA EPD) issued a Title V Air Operating Permit to Robins AFB in May 2009. The permit renewal is currently under review by GA EPD. Permitting actions and operational changes must be communicated to GA EPD both with regard to historical permitting documents as well as in the form of modifications to the Title V application.
C.2.1.2. 1.2 Objective The objective of this task is to provide AQ compliance analyses and technical support to Robins AFB to ensure compliance with the all applicable federal and state environmental AQ permits, rules, and guidance.
C.2.1.2.1.3 Description of Tasks The Contractor shall provide technical analyses for AQ compliance to ensure that Robins AFB remains in compliance with all applicable state and federal AQ regulations. AQ compliance analyses and technical support for Robins AFB includes ongoing engineering evaluations of processes that result in emissions. Engineering evaluations are required to determine changes in the emission source composition, air pollution control equipment performance and its ability to meet permitted emission limits, and industrial processes changes. Additional activities include the management of monitoring, analytical, and recordkeeping activities, and the collection and validation of material use data for incorporation in compliance reports. This task order requires activities and deliverables that are necessary to comply with current and future AQ regulations.
Work shall be performed in response to the AQ information requests, in support of Robins AFB AQ permitting and compliance actions, and decisions pursuant to CAAA Part 70 promulgated regulations. Information gaps may require an engineering evaluation to determine emission factors, emission rates, and other analysis for compliance and permitting requirements.
This section of the PWS addresses activities to be performed in support of Robins AFB AQ permitting and compliance actions and decisions pursuant to the regulatory requirements of the CAAA.
C.2.1.2.2 Technical Support The Contractor shall provide technical support to the base Air Quality Program Manager (AQPM) to ensure compliance with the Clean Air Act (CAA) requirements, the many applicable National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPs), and the facility’s Title V Air Operating Permit.
C.2.1.2.2.1 Conformity Analysis The Contractor shall analyze actions at Robins AFB to determine if air emissions will exceed applicable standards. Federal actions that result in emissions of air pollutants must be analyzed to determine if the action would cause emissions to exceed applicable standards. A conformity analysis indicates if a more detailed and rigorous determination must be performed. If the evaluation determines that the action causes emissions above the specified threshold, a detailed conformity determination is required. Title 40 of the Code of Regulations Part 51 (40 CFR 51) requires federal actions to conform to requirements in the state implementation plan. If the project determines that the action causes emissions above the specified threshold, a detailed conformity determination shall be required (separate task). The Contractor shall assume one detailed conformity determination per contract performance period.
| C.2.1.2.3 | Air Emissions Inventory (AEI) |
| C.2.1.2.3.1 | Inventory, AEI Data Management |
The Contractor shall complete an air emissions inventory for approximately 2,000 air emissions sources for Robins AFB for calendar year (CY) 2014 in accordance with Air Force Instruction (AFI) 32-7040. This inventory is the basis for determining annual air emissions fees required under GA EPD Rule 301-3-1-.03(9). The air emissions inventory is also used to answer requests for current air emissions levels. The Contractor shall calculate the actual annual air emissions and potential to emit (PTE) for the criteria pollutants and hazardous air pollutants for the significant emission units, including significant sources with generic requirements. Emissions shall be documented in pounds per year (lbs/yr) and ton/yr. Potential emission calculations are based on equipment activities or scale-up factors except where exceptions are noted. The Contractor shall update the PTE estimates in CY2015 and CY2018 by updating the underlying data sets for the years 2012 through 2014 and 2015 through 2017, respectively. The Contractor shall provide background documentation. The background information shall include emissions calculations, example calculations, and source of data. The AEI must be submitted by the Contractor to GA EPD via the Emission Inventory System by 1 August 2015.
According to 40 CFR 70.2, major sources are responsible for calculating air fees for the four criteria pollutants covered under the fee system – sulfur dioxide (SO2), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), particulate matter (PM), and nitrous oxide (NOx). The Contractor shall calculate the 2014 air emissions as specified by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources Manual of Procedures for Calculating Air Permit Fees. The Contractor shall complete the Air Emissions Fees Reporting Form and provide background documentation and emissions calculations.
This task will result in completing the calendar year 2014 annual air emission inventory which must be submitted to GA EPD via the Emission Inventory System by 1 August 2015. The 2015, 2016, and 2017 AEIs shall also be completed by the Contractor and must be submitted to GA EPD by 1 August 2016, 2017, and 2018, respectively.
This task also results in completing the calendar year 2014 air fees which must be submitted to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources by 1 September 2015. The 2015, 2016, and 2017 air fees shall also be completed by the Contractor and must be submitted to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources by 1 September 2016, 2017, and 2018, respectively.
C.2.1.2.3.2 Inventory, Air Emission Inventory (AEI) Data Management, Local Support The Contractor shall maintain the Air Program Information Management System (APIMS) to include the fields and queries required to perform materials recordkeeping and monthly reporting requirements. This shall include requirements for hand-wipe cleaning, primers and topcoats (including touch-up coating usage), depainting, adhesives, sealants, and specialty coatings, boilers, generators, tanks, jet engine testing, and refrigerants. The Contractor shall modify the databases as necessary to incorporate new fields and queries identified during the recordkeeping/reporting process. APIMS will be maintained such that applicable reporting can be submitted to AFCEC via the database. This includes, but is not limited to, an AEI (stationary and mobile) and a Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Inventory. The Contractor shall provide documentation for the database upgrades as necessary for the 78 CEG/CEIE Program Manager to use the database.
C.2.1.2.3.3 Inventory, AEI Data Management, GHG, Mandatory Reporting Rule (MRR) Greenhouse gas management strategies for the Air Force will depend on defensible emissions inventories. To meet the requirements of the US EPA Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases Rule, the Contractor shall complete a GHG Inventory for Robins AFB, addressing the six recognized greenhouse gases/ozone depleting substances. The Contractor shall take into account direct and indirect emissions and report by 31 March 2016.
The US EPA MRR requires reporting of GHG emissions from applicable source categories annually on a calendar year basis in accordance with 40 CFR 98. The MRR regulations are evolving with additional source categories expected to be added beyond those initially identified in the final rule that was published on 30 October 2009. Emissions for carbon dioxide (C02), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N20), sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), perfluorocarbons, and hydrofluorocarbons must be calculated and converted to carbon dioxide equivalent (C02e) using methodologies specified in the MRR. Subject facilities that fail to monitor and report GHG emissions are subject to US EPA enforcement action.
In 2010, Robins AFB prepared the required Monitoring Plan that identified applicable GHG emission source categories and individual sources subject to the MRR. This Plan also identified installation organizations responsible for applicable GHG emissions and sources of data required to calculate emissions. This plan has been updated incorporating changes to applicable GHG emission sources.
The Contractor shall identify the source categories and individual GHG emission sources that are subject to the MRR using existing information to the maximum extent possible. Existing information includes the most current AQ emission inventory. The Contractor shall provide an updated list of GHG emissions sources subject to the MRR for Robins AFB review. Upon Robins AFB AQPM concurrence, the Contractor shall update the Monitoring Plan to reflect changes in GHG emission sources.
The Contractor shall obtain fuel usage and other data needed to calculate GHG emissions based on C02e. The Contractor shall evaluate whether default emission factors presented in the MRR regulation are appropriate or whether other emission factors currently being used by Robins AFB provide more accurate data. The Contractor shall prepare a Technical Memorandum summarizing the assumptions used for the basis for calculating GHG emissions. The Contractor, as a designated agent, shall assist Robins AFB in preparing the calendar year 2015 GHG emission report that will be submitted to EPA using their electronic Greenhouse Gas Reporting Tool (e-GGRT). This report must be submitted electronically to EPA by 31 March 2016.
