AIR TOXICS ASSESSMENT REFINEMENT IN RAPCA'S JURISDICTION - DAYTON, OH AREA

Impact/Purpose:

Dayton, OH area Regional Air Planning group will be reviewing monitoring and updating inventory

Description:

RAPCA has receive two grants to conduct this project. As part of the original project, RAPCA has improved and expanded their point source inventory by converting the following area sources to point sources: dry cleaners, gasoline throughput processes and halogenated solvent cleaners, compiled all past air toxic monitoring data, and modeled the improved point source air toxic inventory using ISC. Based on the modeling and past monitoring, RAPCA will monitor a few locations. After the monitoring is completed, a final report will be written. As part of the second project, RAPCA will hire a contractor to do another generation of NATA's National Scale Assessment for the RAPCA region using the new inventory. This would enable RAPCA to see the impacts of converting area sources to point sources. Hopefully, this will spur others to make similar inventory adjustments if the results are significant. Another part of this project will support community outreach to address any hotspots found.
