Meeting called to Order The AACOG Air Quality Committee is meeting in accordance with Chapter 551 of the Texas Government Code (Open Meetings Act). As such, the Committee reserves the right to retire into executive session concerning any of the items listed on this Agenda whenever it is considered necessary and legally justified under the Texas Open Meetings Act.] [00:00:03] AND ASK FOR ROLL CALL CHECK, PLEASE. JAMES JACKSON. YES, YOU ARE BECAUSE WE HAVE, OKAY. WE SHALL PROCEED. UM, W ANY PUBLIC COMMENTS AT ALL THAT ANYBODY SENDING FOR PUBLIC COMMENTS? OKAY. VERY GOOD. AND MOVE ON THEN TO OUR CONSENT AGENDA. [ Consent Agenda The consent agenda consists of items considered being of a routine nature and contains items recommended for approval by the Air Quality Committee or the minutes from previous Committee meetings. These items will be enacted in one motion, or any member of the Committee may request that items be removed from the consent agenda and considered separately for purposes of discussion and voting.] AND THERE'S ONE ITEM ON THAT CONSENT AGENDA AND S THE MEETING, THE MEETINGS, UH, FRONT, JUNE 20TH. THE LAST TIME WE ACTUALLY MET 2021, THE AIR QUALITY COMMITTEE, AND THOSE ARE THE MINISTERS. SO THAT'S ON THE CONGENITAL AGENDA, AND I'LL BE GLAD TO ENTERTAIN A MOTION. MOTION. SECOND JUDGE EVANS SIGNED BY JUDGE KASI. ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALRIGHT. ALL IN FAVOR. SAY AYE. AYE. OKAY. OPPOSED. ALL RIGHT. LET'S MOVE ON NOW TO NEW BUSINESS. FIRST ITEM [5. Update and overview of 2021 ozone season. - Lyle Hufstetler] IS NUMBER FIVE, UPDATE AND OVERVIEW OF THE 2021 OZONE SEASON, AND WE GET LYLE FOR TWO OF THEM. AND THEN WE GET STEVEN FOR THE, FOR THE NEXT ONE. SO ALLOW YOUR GOOD AFTERNOON CHAIRMAN AND BOARD MEMBERS. THIS IS JUST AN UPDATE, BUT A RECAP OF THE 2021 OZONE SEASON. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. WE ENDED THE SEASON WITH PRELIMINARY THREE-YEAR AVERAGES THAT ARE SHOWN ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE CASTIGATED CAPITALISTS. NOW OUR HIGHEST COORDINATE MONITOR HAS 73 PARTS PER BILLION. YOU NOTICE THE NUMBERS FOR 2021. THOSE ON LEVELS THAT CAN FACTOR INTO THIS YEAR AVERAGE POPULATION. YOU'LL SEE, UH, 78 PARTS PER BILLION FOR CAMPBELL. THIS, UNFORTUNATELY THAT HAS BEEN A CONTEST FOR THE NEXT TWO YEARS IN OUR, UH, OH, SOME DESIGN CALCULATIONS. CALAVERAS SLATE CALENDAR IS LAKE IS CONSISTENTLY OUR LOWEST QUIRKY MONITOR IS LOCATED IN THE SAN ANTONIO RIVER. NEXT, SLIGHTLY HERE I WRITE DOWN ON A MONTHLY FREQUENCY OF DAYS, UH, AT DIFFERENT THRESHOLDS, 1 34 PARTS PER BILLION, THAT CORRESPONDS TO MODERATE ON THEIR QUALITY INDEX. 70 PARTS PER BILLION PEOPLE RESPOND TO UNHEALTHY FOR SENSITIVE SAME EVENTS. SO OVERALL THE SEASON WAS PRETTY NEAR AVERAGE BY OVER METRICS, TAKING THE SEASON AS A WHOLE. UM, THERE WERE A COUPLE OF MONTHS THAT STAND OUT TEMPORARY OCTOBER, NAMELY. I HAD TWO THIRDS OF THE NUMBER OF A'S OVER 70 COMPARED TO THE REST OF THE SEASON. AND AUGUST WAS ACTUALLY MUCH CLEANER THAN AVERAGE. USUALLY THAT'S OUR FIRST MONTH. WE ACTUALLY HAD NO GAUGE SLIDE. JUST A SUMMARY OF THOSE STATISTICS. SHE'LL SEE THAT THERE WERE 12 ALERTS THAT WERE ISSUED BY THE TC ISSUE, AND THE LEVELS ARE EXPECTED TO BE HIGH. THE NEXT DAY, ONLY SEVEN OF THOSE ALERTS ACTUALLY VERIFIED, MEANING THERE WAS 70 OR HIGHER PARTS PER BILLION OZONE. ON THAT DAY, WE HAD 13 TOTAL DAYS OVER 70, AND THAT INCLUDES REGULATORY AND NON-REGULATORY MONITORS. I EXPLAINED 12. YOU SAW ON THE PREVIOUS SLIDE, THOSE REGULATORY OF THOSE 13 DAYS, SIX DID NOT HAVE ALERT STATE ISSUES. THESE ALERTS, LIKE I SAID, WHENEVER IT WAS ONLY AS EXPECTED HIGH FOR THE NEXT DAY. FOR REASON, THESE ARE ISSUES, UH, TWOFOLD SO THAT, UH, SENSITIVE PEOPLE CAN AVOID EXPOSURE OUTDOORS DURING HIGH OZONE EVENTS. AND THEN SECOND REASON IS, UM, FOR THE PUBLIC TO IMPLEMENT, YOU KNOW, JUST LITTLE ENERGY CONSERVATION MEASURES IN THEIR EVERYDAY, UH, IN THEIR EVERYDAY LIVES TO HELP HELPING OUR OZONE LEVELS DOWN A LITTLE BIT ALMOST DAYS. IT'S LIKE, SO I'LL JUST END THE 20, 21 RECAP WITH, UM, OUR DESIGN ON YOUR TREND THAT THESE ARE THE THREE OZONE MONITORS FOR KEEPING WITH THE LAPTOPS THAT WE'VE BEEN IN SINCE 2016, KIND OF AROUND 72 AND 74. IT'S OUR HEALTH FOR OUR EXCELLENT. I HAVE CALCULATED A MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE FOR HIGHEST IN ORDER FOR US TO ACHIEVE THE STANDARD BY THE END OF THE 2022 VOTES ON SEASON. IF YOU WANT TO GET SAN ANTONIO NORTHWEST KANSAS 23, AS AT MARSHALL HIGH SCHOOL, 73 IS OUR MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE. AND IF YOU LOOK AT 2020 AND 2021 DASH D SEEMS LIKE THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY. SO IT'S POSSIBLE THAT AT THE END OF 22, WE ACTUALLY HAD ANOTHER DAUGHTER IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SPANISH. BUT UNFORTUNATELY, THAT LIST IS THE 60 IS THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE. IT'S [00:05:02] DIFFICULT, THE LOWER PARTS PER BILLION. I'M SORRY. WE COULDN'T EVEN HAVE GOT THERE FOR THAT WAS THE LOWER PART. I MEAN, LOOK AT CALAVERAS, YOU HAVE 66 FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS, AND THAT'S ALWAYS THE LOWEST MONITOR. SO IT'S VERY HELPFUL THAT NEXT SLIDE, THIS JUST SHOWS WHAT WE CAN EXPECT FOR THE 20 THROUGH 2022 OZONE SEASON. THIS IS STUFF, UH, SINCE 2010 RECORDING THE NUMBER OF A'S OVER, YOU KNOW, 54 OR 70, OR I ACTUALLY GLUED TO THE NEXT THRESHOLD ON THE AIR QUALITY. AND THAT'S ON HELPING THOSE BEHIND HAVE A SCREEN WEEK AT A FAULTY ROSELAND SEASONS SPRING PEANUTS, USUALLY FOR MAPLE MAY. AND THE FALL PEAK IS BETWEEN AUGUST AND OCTOBER. THE FALL PEAK TENDS TO BE THE MORE SEVERE OF THE TWO PEAKS NOTICE THE LARGER ORANGE SECOND HALF OF THE SEASON THREE IN JULY LEVELS. WE'VE SO LOW IS BECAUSE I'VE ASKED WHAT WE CALL THE MID SUMMER MINIMUM. IT'S WHEN WE HAVE PERSISTENT SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW OFF THE GOLF THAT KIND OF DRIVES IT, CLEANER AIR, RELATIVELY DIRTY AND CONTINENTAL AIR FROM ORDER. AND THAT ACTUALLY MEANS THE RECAP ALL ENTERTAINED ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS OF LAW ON THIS? UH, OBVIOUSLY IT'S NOT GREAT NEWS BOLUS. YES. YOU KNOW, I'M, I'M SURE THIS BAFFLED TO EVERYBODY ABOUT CAMP BULLIS. AND I GUESS MY QUESTION IS, ARE THERE ANY EXPERTS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD THAT WE COULD REACH OUT TO, TO FIND OUT WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON AT CAMP? THERE'S NOTHING AROUND THERE. IT'S OUT BY ITSELF. YEAH. IN 10. BUT EVEN WITH THAT, WITH THE REDUCED TRAFFIC FLOW THAT WE'VE HAD OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS, UH, IT'S STILL UP THERE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT AT ALL. AND I DON'T, ARE THERE ANY EXPERTS OUT THERE THAT COULD COME IN HERE AND HELP US OUT WITH THAT? I WOULD SAY WE'RE PRETTY CLOSE TO HAVE SOME EXPERTISE RIGHT HERE IN THIS BUILDING. AND, UH, I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS, IS, IS CHALLENGING JUST BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, AT OUR OLD FACILITY MILITARY, SO IT'S HARD TO GET SORT OF STUDIES LIKE THAT GOING. BUT I, I MEAN, I THINK I WOULDN'T BE INTERESTED IN SOMETHING LIKE I WOULD SAY THAT, THAT THE CITY CONTRACTED AND HAD THE STUDY OUT THERE, WHICH REALLY WAS NOT ABLE TO BRING FORTH MEANINGFUL RESULTS. AND, UH, THE ONE THING WE CAN OBSERVE, WE DON'T HAVE A CAUSAL RELATIONSHIP THAT THE CAUSE AND EFFECT, AND THE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE WEATHER AND BULLETS, PARTICULARLY WHEN YOU LOOK AT SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER AND THE COLD FRONTS COMING THROUGH. SO IT IS THAT, THAT CORRELATION BETWEEN THE COAL FRED'S COMING IN TO WEATHER EVENTS AND, AND, UH, BULLETS, BECAUSE THE REGULAR OF THE MAGE THERE, CAUSE THERE IS NO POINT SOURCE. THERE IS, THERE'S NOT ANYTHING YOU'VE GOT SOME UNIQUE GEOGRAPHICAL OR GEOLOGICAL RATHER, UH, FORMATIONS THERE, BUT IT'S THAT CORRELATION WITH THE WEATHER. AND AS WE OBSERVE WITH THE WEATHER AND THE WIND CHANGED DIRECTION, SO IT'S NOT THE TEMPERATURE, BUT IT'S MORE CORRELATING WITH THE CHANGE IN WIND DIRECTION. SO THAT IS THE ONE THING THAT I THINK PEOPLE AGREE ON THE OBSERVATION, NOT THE CAUSE, BUT THE OBSERVATION OF THAT CORRELATION, BUT EPA DOESN'T PAIR. YES. JESSICA, YOU SAID SOMETHING I WANT TO CLARIFY. YOU SAID THAT THERE'S NOT A POINT SOURCE. SO YOU'RE SAYING THAT CAMP BULLETS ISN'T CONSIDERED THE REASON THAT NO, THEY'RE NOT GENERATING YET AND THERE'S NOT AN BLOCK. I I'M NOT THE EXPERT LAW IS DIFFERENT, SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M GOING TO TALKING, BUT, UH, THERE'S NOT A POINT SOURCE THAT WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE WITHIN THAT, THAT VICINITY. UM, AND CORRECT ME IF I SAY THAT WRONG. UM, NO, THAT'S CORRECT. I, I WAS FORTUNATE TO BE ABLE TO TOUR THE MONITOR NATIONALLY. THERE'S, THERE'S, THERE'S A WATER RETENTION POND NEARBY, BUT IT'S ACTUALLY ABOUT 10 FEET UP RELATIVE TO THE MONITOR ITSELF. SO, UM, EVEN IF IT WASN'T GETTING ANYTHING, I DON'T THINK IT IS. I, I THINK IT'S JUST A SIMPLE, UM, IT, I, I CAN'T SEE IT AFFECTING THAT MONITORS BECAUSE OF THE DIFFERENCE OF ELEVATION HERE'S THE WATER. AND THEN HERE'S THE MONITOR IS GOING RIGHT OVER THAT. ONE MORE ABOUT THOSE 40 OPERATIONS RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF THE CAMPBELL'S THOSE THEY'RE, THEY'RE REALLY CLOSE TO THE MONITOR. AND WHAT WE'VE SEEN IS THAT WHEN A SOURCE OF NOX IS REAL CLOSE TO AN OZONE MONITOR, IT ACTUALLY HAS TO BE PRODUCING ITS OWN SOMETIMES. SO I WOULDN'T, I [00:10:01] WOULDN'T ATTRIBUTE IT TO A NEARBY OR A KNOX KNOX IS ONE OF THE PRECURSORS TO ALWAYS ON, IS JUST A VERY COMPLEX KIND OF GO SOUTH ONE AND CHEMICAL ACTUALLY CONDITION, BOTH CREATE AND ACTUALLY DESTROY OZONE. SO IT'S THAT JUST KIND OF, IT SPEAKS TO THE LEVEL OF COMPLEXITY WITH OZONE, ANYTIME YOU'RE DEALING WITH ELEMENTS OF NOT ONLY WHETHER IT'S A COMPLICATE THINGS, THE INDUSTRY ITSELF THAT I MUST'VE BEEN, I DON'T KNOW TOO MUCH ABOUT A LOT OF THAT'S OVER MY HEAD, BUT IT'S JUST AN INCREDIBLY COMPLEX PHENOMENON. AND IT'S, IT'S HARD TO REALLY PINPOINT ONE AREA THAT I THINK LIKE I ANSWERED THE WEATHER, I THINK IS A PRIMARY. I WOULD ALSO SAY THAT TCQ IS EXTRAORDINARILY SUPPORTIVE OF US AND I WOULD CERTAINLY NOT SPEAK FOR THEM, BUT IN MY RELATIONSHIPS, I THINK IF THERE WAS, UM, A RESOURCE AVAILABLE THAT COULD OFFER INSIGHT AND ADVICE, I THINK THEY WOULD VERY OPEN TO SOLICITING THAT HELP. CAUSE THEY'RE VERY SUPPORTIVE OF ALL THE REGIONS IN TEXAS IN ACHIEVING ATTAINMENT. AND THEY'RE USED TO BRINGING IN RESOURCES, THEY'RE THE ONES WHO PETITIONED TO HAVE US EXEMPT UNDER THE WAIVER VENTURE, THE 1 7, 9 BEADS. SO THEY'RE VERY, VERY SUPPORTIVE. IS THERE SOMETHING WE CAN DO TO KICK THAT OFF, TO TRY TO GET THEM TO RESPOND TO THAT, TO BRING IN OUTSIDE WE TALK ALL THE TIME AND IF IT EXISTED, I THINK THEY WOULD HAVE, I MEAN, THEY'VE GOT COURSES IN SCIENTIFIC. YEAH. THEY THEY'VE BEEN OUR BIGGEST, BIG, BIG SUPPORTERS AS HAS THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE AS WELL. AND TRYING TO, UH, TO WORK WITH, WITH THE EPA ON ALL THESE ISSUES. SO IT'S, IT IS REALLY WEIRD THAT THAT ONE, ONE IS THE, ONE OF THE THREE IS THE DETERMINING FACTOR OF OUR PROBLEMS WITH NON-ATTAINMENT, BUT THAT'S, THAT'S UNFORTUNATELY THE WAY IT IS. IT'S ALMOST, I WOULD ACTUALLY SAY IT IS BY DESIGN THAT YOU HAVE A MONITOR THAT REPORTS ON SOME LEVEL AND A REGION. SO YOU CAN SAY, BUT I THINK WITH MONITORS PERFORMING EXACTLY AS I WILL, I JUST WANT TO SPEAK THOUGH A LITTLE BIT TO WHAT I ACTUALLY WOULD CALL THE WEATHER, HAVE JUST A LITTLE BIT OF ANALYSIS LOOKING AT WHAT WEATHER IS CAUSING, YOU KNOW, SPECIFICALLY THAT MONITOR. AND I FOUND THAT THAT WIND FLOW REVERSAL IS THE MOST PRONOUNCED AT THAT CANCER PAGE, CAMPBELL, THIS MONITOR THE OTHER MONITORS WHEN THERE'S HIGH OZONE IN THE AREA, THEY SORT OF KIND OF HAVE THAT MOOD SHIFT SIGNATURE, BUT IT'S REALLY PRONOUNCED AND REALLY CONSISTENT WITH THAT MONITOR. SO THERE MIGHT EVEN BE SOME OH, FOREIGN EMISSION. SO AGAIN, WE STILL HAVE THE HUGE ISSUE OF THE VAST MAJORITY OF OUR PROBLEMS ARE NOT CAUSED BY OUR AREA AND THAT THERE'S NOT A DARN THING, LESS CPA CHANGES, UH, SOME OF THEIR, SOME OF THEIR CRITERIA. THAT'S NOT GONNA MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE. OKAY. SO LET'S, LET'S UH, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THIS SECTION? CAUSE HE'S GOT THE NEXT ONE, WHICH IS KIND OF [6. Update on Bexar County's Ozone Nonattainment Status. - Lyle Hufstetler] GIVING US AN UPDATE ON THE NON-ATTAINMENT STATUS. AND I THINK YOU'LL FIND THIS, IF THE GENERAL PUBLIC FINDS OUT ABOUT ALL THESE THINGS THAT ARE GOING TO HAVE TO HAPPEN TO THEM, THEY'RE GOING TO BE REALLY SHOCKED BY THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. SO FOR THIS PRESENTATION, I'M JUST GOING TO START BY GIVING YOU A LITTLE BIT OF THE REGULATORY OVERVIEW BECAUSE IT ASKS LIKE TWO MORE SLIDES AFTER THIS, ARE YOU ALL IMPRESSED WHEN SHE GETS IT UP WITH A NEW TEMPLATE, THIS IS A NEW POWERPOINT TEMPLATE THAT ALL OF US ARE TRYING TO USE. THAT WAS PART OF OUR BRAND. WHEN WE CAME OUT WITH OUR NEW BUSINESS CARDS AND WE DID, WE'RE TRYING TO BE FRESH AND CLEAN UPDATE. SO ALL OF OUR POWERPOINTS ARE USING THIS PRETTY PICTURES, GREAT NEW TEMPLATES. UM, SO THE REGULATORY FRAMEWORK THAT REALLY ALLOWS THE DBA, THE AUTHORITY TO ENFORCE THESE STANDARDS ARE SET BY THE CLEAN AIR ACT. UM, THERE ARE ACTUALLY SIX DIFFERENT CRITERIA POLLUTANTS FOR WHICH THERE ARE A NATIONAL AMBIENT AIR QUALITY STANDARDS. OZONE HAPPENS TO BE ONE OF THOSE. AND THAT'S THE ONE THAT WE'RE STRUGGLING WITH RIGHT NOW. THESE ARE NATIONALLY ACCEPTABLE LEVELS OF CONCENTRATIONS FOR EACH OF THE POLLUTANTS AND THEY'RE REVIEWED, UH, PRETTY PERIODICALLY EVERY FIVE OR SIX YEARS OR SO, JUST TO BE SURE THAT THAT STANDARD IS SET TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE LATEST SCIENCE AVAILABLE REGARDING PUBLIC HEALTH IMPACTS OF OZONE THERE'S MEET THE STANDARD OF RESULTS IN A NON-ATTAINMENT DESIGNATION AND, UH, FEDERAL REGULATIONS IN THOSE AREAS. UM, ONE OF THE REQUIREMENTS WAS THAT THE STATE PRODUCES THE STATE IMPLEMENTATION AND THAT DEMONSTRATES HOW THE AREA'S GONNA COME INTO A TEAM. THAT'S WHAT WAS ON THIS FORM IN, [00:15:01] UH, NITROGEN OXIDES OR NOX REACTIVE VOLUME ORIENTED COMPOUNDS OR IN THE PRESENCE OF SUNLIGHT. OZONE IS TOXIC TO HOUSTON. HENCE THE, THESE NEW STANDARDS, THIS PRIMARY, UH, THEIR PRIMARY SECRETARIES, THEIR PRIMARY OR SECONDARY PROTECTS PUBLIC WELFARE FOR BOZON. THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY ARE SET AT THE SAME LEVEL. THE WAY WE CALCULATE COMPLIANCE FOR OATMEAL, DESPITE THE MAXIMUM DAILY AVERAGE, BEING OUR OZONE, WHICH I'VE CALLED MBAS. WE AVERAGE THAT OVER THREE YEARS, AND THAT MUST FIND SINCE 70 PARTS PER BILLION, THE HISTORY ABOUT THE KNOCKS OR THE NAPS, EXCUSE ME, UH, STARTED IN 19 79, 19 97. IT WAS COMPLETELY OVERHAUL TO THE STANDARD. THAT'D BE RECOGNIZED TODAY THAT I JUST MENTIONED IT STARTED OUT AT 0.8 PARTS PER BILLION, WHICH IS 80 PARTS PER BILLION OR PREVENTIVELY FOR THAT STANDARD. AND IT'S JUST CONSISTENTLY GONE DOWN TO THE 70 PARTS PER TRILLION. AND YOU'LL NOTICE THE KIND OF PERIODIC REVIEW PROCESS WHERE THAT STANDARD KEEPS INCREMENTALLY WEEK. NOW NEXT, PLEASE. SO OUR OZONE, THIS ONE'S A LITTLE BIT LONGER THAN THE LIFE, UH, IN THE PREVIOUS, SINCE 97, IT'S A PRETTY STEADY DECLINE IN OUR, UH, OZONE LEVELS AT ALL THREE MONITORS. I ALSO INCLUDED A BAR THAT SHOWS THE POPULATION TREND SINCE 97, IT'S TOTALLY RISING. SO WE DECREASED OUR OZONE LEVELS DESPITE, UH, MORE PEOPLE MOVING INTO OUR REGION. I ALSO INCLUDED WHERE THE STANDARD WAS AT THAT PARTICULAR YEAR. SO WE'VE ALSO NOTICED THAT FALLING DOWN TO THE PINK AT 85 DOWN TO 70, WE'VE REALLY KIND OF KEPT PACE MORE OR LESS THAN THAT STANDARD OVER THE YEARS. BUT, UM, LIKE I SAID, SINCE 2016, WE KIND OF, UM, WE'VE KINDA HIT A PLATEAU IN WHERE IT WAS, WHERE THERE IS SORT OF DESIGNATED NON-ATTAINMENT. UH, THE DESIGN VALUE IS ASSESSED TO DETERMINE WHERE IN THAT CHART IT FALLS, IF IT'S BETWEEN SAY 71 81, LIKE OURS WAS WHEN WE WERE DESIGNATED, WE'RE GETTING A MARGINAL CLASSIFICATION, HIGHER PANELS. IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT THE MONITOR INSECURITY. SO WHEN YOU, UM, FAILED TO MEET THE STANDARD AT YOUR CLASS POSITION, YOU'RE BUMPED UP TO THE NEXT SEVERE, NOT SEVERE, BUT THE NEXT NEXT LEVEL CLASSIFICATION LEVELS. SO WE'RE FACING UP FOR MARGINAL MODERATE. SO THE 2015 NEXT WAS PROMULGATED. THERE'S ONLY 1874 APARTMENT BUILDING DESIGN VALUES. SO THREE YEAR DEADLINE IN ORDER TO REACH THE ATTAINMENT, IF WE FAIL TO MEET BY THAT DATE. SO HERBERT 2014 RECLASSIFIED. NOW THE ISSUE WITH THAT DATE IS THAT IT FALLS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NOSE AND AN EPA IS NOT GOING TO CONSIDER IT FOR AN INCOMPLETE SEASON. SO EFFECTIVELY OUR YEAR IS 2020. OKAY. SO HERE'S THE 2020 STATISTICS I'M TO NOTICE 72 PARTS PER BILLION AT BOTH, UH, 2358. SO THAT WAS INDEED A FAILURE TO ATTAIN. AND THE EPA IS MANDATED TO GIVE THESE DESIGNATIONS NOT MORE THAN SIX MONTHS FROM VIA THE DEADLINE. SO MARCH OF 2022 IS WHEN THE NEW STAFF LEADERS THAT WE EXPECT THIS RECLASSIFICATION INTO THE EFFECT OF, OKAY. I JUST INCLUDED A COUPLE OF SITES THAT SHOW A BREAKDOWN OF THE CONTRIBUTION TO OZONE AT CAMP BULLIS BASED ON THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF SOURCES THAT ARE OUT THERE. SO OUR MODELING HAS SUGGESTED THAT, UM, MOST CONTRIBUTIONS TO THAT MONITOR IS FROM BALM ROAD SOURCES. SO MOBILE SOURCES, AUTOMOBILES THROUGHOUT THE 17 TRAVELS ON HIGHWAY, BASICALLY. UM, AND THEN NOW WE HAVE, UM, POINT SOURCES, WHICH ARE ALSO CONTRIBUTOR. SO THIS IS ALL FOREIGN SOURCES IN THE, I THINK THAT'S ALL MY SOURCES EVERYWHERE, BUT, UH, IT'S ABOUT A QUARTER OF THE CONTRIBUTION TOES POINT SOURCES AND LONG ROAD. IT'S MUCH MORE THAN HALF OF THE CONTRIBUTION. YOU CAN USE THE SAME TYPE OF MODELING TO DETERMINE WHICH GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS CONTRIBUTE TO OZONE OUT OF THE PARTICULAR MONITORS, WE SEE A PRETTY EVEN SPLIT, YOU KNOW, A THIRD COMING FROM INTERNATIONAL SOURCES, A THIRD FROM THE REST OF THE UNITED STATES AND THEN A THIRD FROM US, AND THEN PLUS THE REST OF THE TEXAS. AND THEN YOU'LL SEE OUR 20% OF CONTRIBUTION FROM THE SAN ANTONIO NEW. AND AS A [00:20:02] HAVING SAID, ALL THAT, WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT UNDER A MODERATE RECLASSIFICATION? SO WE START OFF, I'M JUST GOING TO START OFF BY TALKING ABOUT THE MARSHALL PATIENTS, BECAUSE EACH, WHEN YOU'RE BUMPED UP, YOU YOU'RE, YOU'RE FACED WITH THESE NEW REGULATIONS FOR THAT CATEGORY, BUT ALSO THE ONES THAT WERE IN PLACE UNDER YOUR PREVIOUS CLASSIFICATION LEVEL. SO LET'S BE BUMPED UP TO MODERATE MEANS WE HAVE MARGINAL AND MODERATE REGULATIONS TO CONTEND WITH. SO UNDER MARGINAL, WE HAVE EMISSIONS INVENTORY OR SHOULD STATEMENTS THAT ARE REQUIRED AT A TCEQ. DOES THIS, THEY ACTUALLY ALREADY DO THIS FOR EVERY AREA IN TEXAS. SO GRAY AREA TO OWN TO NON-ATTAINMENT, IT'S NOT THAT AFFECTS YOUR WORK FOR THE TCEQ. THERE ARE KIND OF PROACTIVE IT, BUT THESE ARE DUE TWO YEARS FROM THE DATA DESIGNATION. THEN IT'S JUST THE DOCUMENTATION OF ALL OF THE DIFFERENT SOURCES, NOT JUST POINT SOURCES, BUT ALSO AREA AND ON ROAD AND ALL HER SOURCES OF THOSE ON GREEN. AND THESE HAVE TO BE UPDATED EVERY THREE YEARS. THE PURPOSE BEHIND THIS IS TO GIVE US LIKE A BASELINE LEVEL OF EMISSIONS FOR MOST ENGAGED, UH, FUTURE EDITIONS WITH OPTIONS. ANOTHER BIG COMPONENT OF MARGINAL NON-ATTAINMENT IS NOT UPDATED NEWS SOURCE REVIEWS AND COMMISSIONS OFFSET. SO THIS IS PRETTY MUCH, UH, RELATES TO, UM, BUSINESSES AND THE INDUSTRIES THAT SEEM TO RELOCATE TO, OR OUTSIDE OR EXPAND WITHIN THEIR COMPANY. AND ANY BUSINESS THAT DECIDES TO DO THIS MUST DEMONSTRATE THAT THEY CAN OFFSET THE INCREASE IN EMISSIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THAT EXPANSION. UH, NOT JUST BY THE AMOUNT THAT IS INCREASING, BUT A LITTLE BIT MORE. SO THAT OFFSET RATIO THAT YOU SEE 1.1 TO ONE, THAT MEANS IF YOU'RE ADDING 10 TONS PER YEAR, YOU NEED TO BE ABLE TO REDUCE 11 FUNDS SOMEWHERE ELSE. AND THAT'S ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH ANY EMISSIONS, CREDIT BANKING AND TRADE STATUS THAT ANY, UH, BUSINESS, UH, PRODUCES VERY EMISSIONS CAN OBTAIN CREDITS FOR THOSE AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS CAN PURCHASE THOSE CREDITS AS OFFSETS THE NEXT, UH, THE NEXT PIECE ON THERE IS A HUNDRED TONS PER YEAR. REFRESHABLE THAT JUST MEANS THOSE ARE THE, IF YOUR FACILITY HAS THAT MUCH, THEN YOU'RE SUBJECT TO THAT OFFSET RATION. I'D ACTUALLY GOT IT. A HUNDRED TIMES BIGGER THRESHOLD WILL COME IN TO PLAY UNDER THE DEFORMITY AS WELL AS JUST THE SECOND BIG COMPONENT OF A MARGINAL NON-ATTAINMENT. AND THERE'S TWO CATEGORIES, UH, TRANSPORTATION AND GENERAL. THIS BASICALLY ENSURES THAT ANY FEDERAL FEDERALLY FUNDED PROJECTS, UM, MUST NOT WORSEN OR REGIONS ARE QUALITY. SO THEY LOOK AT, WILL IT DELAY THE PAYMENT OF THE APPS? WILL IT CAUSE NEW VIOLATIONS OF THE NECKS OR WILL IT WORSE THAN THE EXISTING VIOLATIONS? SO WE, UH, THE MPO HAS, UM, THRESHOLDS FOR ON-ROAD EMISSIONS THAT ANY NEW CONSTRUCTION PROJECT MUST SEE IN ORDER TO INFORM TO THE STATE OF LIMITATION FOR, UM, GENERAL INFORMITY. IF YOU HAVE A PROJECT THAT'S BEEN, UH, UM, INCREASE YOUR TOTAL EMISSIONS ABOVE THAT 100 TONS A YEAR THRESHOLD, AND YOU WILL BE SUBJECT TO, UM, TO FIND EMISSIONS OFFSETS TO KEEP YOUR FACILITY UNDER THAT 100 TONS OF, AND LET ME EXPAND UPON THIS FOR THIS REGION. AND I'M SORRY THAT, UH, COUNCILMAN PERRY HAS LEFT. WHAT'S VERY IMPORTANT ABOUT THE GENERAL CONFORMITY THAT IS NOT WELL APPRECIATED THIS OR THE REGION IS THE IMPACT THAT HAS ON THE MILITARY AND WE'RE LIVING WITH IT RIGHT NOW. WHEN THE AIR FORCE DECIDED THAT THEY WERE GOING TO HAVE A NEW TRAINER, THE T COME IN, CAME IN, WE WERE IN ATTAINMENT. SO IT WAS NOT AN ISSUE WAS NOT A PROBLEM. WE'RE NOW A NON-ATTAINMENT AND THE STARTS COMING IN AND 25. SO WHY WHEN WE MEET MIGHT BE BUMPED UP TO SEVERE. SO THERE IS EXTENSIVE COMMUNICATION BETWEEN JBSA TCQ AND THE EPA ON WHAT THOSE ADMISSIONS FROM THE NEW T SEVEN WILL BE. IT'S A MUCH MORE POWERFUL AIRCRAFT. AND SO EVEN, SO THEY WILL HAVE TO MEASURE THE EMISSIONS FROM EVERY FLIGHT THAT TAKES OFF AND LANDS. SO THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO TRACK ALL OF THAT TO QUANTIFY THE EMISSIONS OF REALLY EVEN LOOKING AT, AND WE'RE SO LUCKY AT THE CHAMBER THAT RETIRED GENERAL, UH, UH, PEARSON IS THERE BECAUSE HE REALLY UNDERSTANDS IT HAS EXCELLENT COMMUNICATION WITH BOTH SIDES. UH, REALLY LOOKING AT HOW WE QUANTIFY THOSE EMISSIONS. WE ONLY HAVE ONE TRAIN THAT'S BUILT RIGHT NOW, AND IT JUST ARRIVED IN ST. LOUIS A FEW MONTHS AGO. SO THEY'RE REALLY TRYING TO GET ACTUALS AND NOT [00:25:01] PROJECTED ADMISSIONS FROM IT, AND TO REALLY SEE WHAT ARE EMITTED AS IT TAKES OFF, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT MATTERS BECAUSE ONCE IT GETS UP HIGH AND IT'S GOTTEN, THOSE WERE FLYING IT, THAT REALLY MATTER. SO IT'S REALLY THOSE ADMISSIONS UPON TAKEOFF AND LANDING, UH, THAT ARE CRITICALLY IMPORTANT. AND EVEN THE DISCUSSIONS GO SO FAR THAT WE MAY TAKE OFF, THEY DON'T, THEY DON'T REALLY DO ALL THEIR THRUSTERS. THEY REALLY TAKE OFF WITH MINIMAL POWER UNTIL THEY'RE UP, AND THEN THEY CAN SIP AWAY. THOSE TYPES OF MEASUREMENTS ARE WHAT WE'RE NOW HAVING TO BE SUBJECT TO BECAUSE OF GENERAL LONG-TERM ON THIS REGION. OKAY. YOU CAN'T MOVE, YOU KNOW, A BASE, BUT YOU CAN START YOUR MOVE OF LIGHTWEIGHT. AND SO SINCE WE'RE SO HEAVILY DEPENDENT UPON THE AIR FORCE IN THIS COMMUNITY, WE'RE NOT WORRIED ABOUT, YOU KNOW, FORT SAMS OR I HATE TO SAY, PREDICT OR SAY THEY'RE MUCH SAFER. THOSE AIR FORCE, GLEANS THOSE AIR FORCE THINGS. YOU CAN JUST PICK THOSE UP AND FLY SOMEPLACE ELSE. SO WE'RE VERY VULNERABLE WITH THE GENERAL CONFORMITY BECAUSE OF THE AIR FORCE. I DON'T THINK THIS COMMUNITY FULLY APPRECIATE THAT. SO, SO I DIDN'T MEAN TO INTERRUPT, BUT I WANTED TO ELABORATE ON THAT. AND WHEN WE WERE MEETING WITH EPA, URGING THEM TO NOT CLASSIFY AS UP, THAT WAS ONE OF THE POINTS THAT WE REALLY DIDN'T ATTEMPT TO TAKE. OKAY. THANK YOU. SO WITH THAT SAID, THAT'S EVERYTHING. ANOTHER MARGINAL THAT WAS DISCUSSED, THE MODERATE, UH, MIGRANTS. SO THE FIRST ONE I WANT LEAD OFF WITH IS THE BASIC VEHICLE INSPECTION. I MEAN, THIS PROGRAM, THIS IS WHAT'S GOING TO REALLY IMPACT, YOU KNOW, EVERYDAY CITIZENS DIRECTLY. THEY'RE GOING TO SEE THIS, YOU KNOW, WHEN THEY GET THEIR CAR INSPECTED. SO THIS IS REQUIRED TO BE IMPLEMENTED NO LATER THAN FOUR YEARS AFTER OUR RECLASSIFICATION. SO IT'S GOING TO BE NO LATER THAN 2026, THAT OUR I AM PROGRAM IS GOING TO BE EFFECTIVE. SO WHAT HAPPENS IS THEY JUST DO A IT'S MORE ENCORE, DIAGNOSTICS TESTING THAT ARE TESTING ADMISSIONS RELATED COMPONENTS. SO THERE'S GOING TO BE SOME EXTRA EQUIPMENT THAT INSPECTION FACILITIES KIND OF HAVE TO PURCHASE EXTRA TRAINING REQUIRED TO TRAIN THE STAFF, TO BE ABLE TO USE THAT EQUIPMENT. SO ALL SAID, IT'S GOING TO PROBABLY ADD ABOUT 15 MINUTES TO YOUR INSPECTION PROCESS ON AVERAGE, AND IT COULD END UP COSTING, UM, AT LEAST $11 MORE THAN A THIRD INSPECTION. THERE'S AUSTIN AND EL PASO. WE'RE AT 1850 AND YOU HAVE TO GET USED IN OUR 25 50. I'M NOT SURE WHERE WE'RE GOING TO FALL IN THOSE CATEGORIES, PROBABLY MORE AUSTIN, BUT LOOKING AT 1850. SO THOSE ARE GOING TO BE LIKE, WHEN THE CITIZENS ARE GETTING THERE, IT DOES ONLY APPLY TO GASOLINE VEHICLES TWO TO 24 YEARS, EXCEPT FOR THESE TESTS, THESE TESTS CAN USE ME IF YOU DON'T. ANOTHER MODERATE NON-ATTAINMENT IS BACK. SO I'M GOING TO TALK ABOUT RAFT AND RAFT RIDE TIME TOGETHER. CAUSE, UM, THERE'S, THERE'S, THAT RATTLE UP TOGETHER, BUT BASICALLY IT'S THE LOWEST LEVEL OF OBLIGATIONS WHEREVER POSSIBLE BY IMPLEMENTING TECHNOLOGIES THAT ARE REASONABLY AVAILABLE IN TECH, TECHNOLOGICALLY AND ECONOMICALLY. SO THERE'S A CLEARING HOUSE THAT WE'VE USED AND HE'S CREATED A WHOLE BUNCH OF DIFFERENT CONTROL MEASURES AND TECHNOLOGIES THAT HELP, UH, FACILITIES REDUCE THEIR INITIATIVES. SO, UM, FACILITIES, UH, FORCED TO COMPLY WITH, WITH RAP. THEN THEY HAVE THAT RESOURCE THAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO SEE WHAT'S AVAILABLE OUT THERE. AND AGAIN, THIS IS, UH, CONSIDERING TECHNOLOGICAL AND ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY. SO IT'S WITHIN REASON THAT THESE TECHNOLOGIES GET IMPLEMENTED. THE PURPOSE BEHIND THESE, UH, RAPID AND RAPID IS TO ADVANCE THE ATTAINMENT DATE BY AT LEAST TWO YEARS. SO IT HAS TO BE IMPLEMENTED, UH, NO LATER THAN THE BEGINNING OF THE OZONE SEASON UP HERE. SO 2023 IS WHEN ISA CONTROL MEASURES ARE SUPPOSED TO BE. WE HAVE A TEAM IN DEMONSTRATION AND CONTINGENCY MEASURES. THE ATTAINMENT DEMONSTRATION IS, UH, BASICALLY IN THE MODELING THAT SHOWS THAT THESE, YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING THAT WE'VE IMPLEMENTED IS GOING TO HAVE A CONCRETE GET BACK ON OZONE. SO THOUGH THE ESTIMATE BETTER, YOU KNOW, YOU'LL COME INTO ATTAINMENT AND THERE'S ALSO A WAY OF HIS ANALYSIS THAT IT'S BASICALLY CAPTURES, YOU KNOW, ANYTHING ELSE THAT YOU NEED, THE MODELING DOESN'T, DOESN'T QUITE PICK UP IN TERMS OF CONTROL STRATEGIES THAT HAVE BEEN IMPLEMENTED IN WAY, DID REGIONS, UM, [00:30:01] CONTINGENCY MEASURES BASICALLY ENSURE THAT YOU'RE REDUCING YOUR EMISSIONS, SUCH THAT ARE A PROBLEM, YOU KNOW, ALONG THE WAY THAT YOU'RE STILL ABLE TO, UM, TO MEET THE STANDARD, EVEN THOUGH YOU WEREN'T ABLE TO REDUCE IT AS MUCH AS YOU THOUGHT, WOW. SO IF YOU DON'T PASS INSPECTION, YOU DON'T GET AN INSPECTION STICKER, YOU CAN'T DRIVE YOUR CAR. THAT'S RIGHT. AND THERE IS ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE TO LOWER INCOME PEOPLE WHO MAY NOT BE ABLE TO IMPLEMENT THOSE. YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO DRIVE YOUR CAR. I CAN SEE A LOT OF TICKETS IN MY COURT. YES. THAT DOES THAT ASSISTANCE FOR AUTOMOBILE REPAIR. I BELIEVE IT'S FOR AUTOMOBILE REPAIR, BUT IT IS FOR THE RENT. IT IS BRILLIANT SESSION AS WELL. OKAY. AND THEN THE REGIONAL FURTHER PROGRESS IS JUST THE INCREMENTAL REDUCTIONS IN OWES IN VOC AND KNOCKS TO, TO CUMULATE INTO 50% BY THE END OF THE PERIOD. SO IT DOES FACTOR IN AN EXTRA 3% REDUCTION IN EMISSIONS IN 2024 AS A CONSTITUENCY TALKED ABOUT. AND THEN, UM, BEFORE I MOVE ON, I JUST WANT TO POINT YOU TO THE, UM, NSR THRESHOLDS AND OFFSET RATIOS. THEY'RE A LITTLE BIT, WELL, THE THRESHOLD IS THE SAME. IT'S STILL A HUNDRED TONS PER YEAR. SO CONFORMITY, UM, UH, NEW SOURCE REVIEW, THAT'S STILL A HUNDRED TONS PER YEAR AND UNDER MODERATE, BUT THAT ALSO THAT RATIO INCREASED TO 1.15 TO ONE. SO NOW IF YOU'RE INCREASING BY 10 TIMES, YOU NEED OFFSET BY 11.5 POUNDS, INSTEAD OF JUST THE LETTER OFFSET IN THE SAME AREA, IN THE SAME ACCOUNT THAT IT HAS TO BE WITHIN THE SAME AUDITING AREA. AND THIS IS JUST BEAR COMPANY. OKAY. SO WE'RE BACK TO OUR CURRENT TAX STATUS. AS I SHOWED ON THE PREVIOUS PRESENTATION WHERE IT'S 73 PARTS PER BILLION, THAT WAS AN INCREASE OF ONE OVER THE PREVIOUS YEAR. I MENTIONED THAT THAT 70 EIGHTS UNDER 2021, THAT'S GOING TO STAY WITH US FOR THE NEXT TWO YEARS. SO WE COULD BE LOOKING AT A SCENARIO IN 2023 WHERE, YOU KNOW, WE'RE GOING BE FACING YET ANOTHER BUMP UP TO THIS TIME TO SERIOUS. EVEN REMEMBER THAT I DID GO OVER THIS, UM, OUR NEW DEADLINE NOW THAT WE TAKE THE STANDARD DURING SEPTEMBER 21ST, 2020. SO THAT MEANS OUR ROUTINE IN HERE IS 23. AND AGAIN, BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT GOING TO DO WITH HALF OF THOSE IN SEASON. SO WHEN IT COMES TIME TO MAKE THAT DETERMINATION, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THAT 78 FACTORED INTO OUR DESIGN GUIDELINES. LET US SET UP PRETTY BIG DISADVANTAGE. I THINK, I DON'T WANT TO SAY IT'S IMPOSSIBLE, BUT IT'S BEEN AN NEEDED. SO SOME KEY POINTS UNDER SERIOUS, UM, REALLY EVERYTHING JUST KIND OF TIGHTENS A LITTLE BIT MORE, UM, THAT OFFSET RATIO INCREASES TO 1.2 TO ONE. SO NOW YOU'RE HAVING TO OFFSET BY 12 TONS PER YEAR INSTEAD OF A LOT IN ONE FIVE. BUT THE BIG THING I THINK IS THAT, UM, DO SOURCE REVIEW THRESHOLD DROPPING FROM A HUNDRED TONS PER YEAR TO 50 TIMES PER YEAR. THAT'S A HUGE DRAMA. THAT'S BEEN, I MEAN, A LOT MORE FACILITIES ARE GOING TO BE SUBJECT TO THESE OFFSETS AND, UM, CONFORMITY ANALYSES. SO THAT'S, I THINK THAT'S THE BIGGEST, UM, THE BIGGEST ADDITION WHEN WE GO TO SERIOUS HONESTY AND IT TURNS OUT THE FEDERAL REGULATIONS AND THIS JUST SHOWS EVERYTHING TOGETHER, AS WE GET BUMPED UP TO SERIOUS, WE'LL HAVE TO BE DEALING WITH ALL THOSE SPECULATIONS WE'VE BEEN HERE A LONG TIME. SO, UM, FUTURE ACTIVITIES THAT HE'S DOING, UM, IF YOU REMEMBER AT THE END OF 2020, UM, THE EPA, UH, FINALIZE, UH, REVIEWS OF THE PARTICULATE MATTER AND OZONE PACKS, AND THEY DETERMINED THAT THEY WOULD NOT REVISE THEM AT THAT TIME, BUT IN JUNE, 2021, OF COURSE WE'LL DO IT IN ILLUSTRATION. YOU HEAR ANNOUNCED THAT THEY WERE GOING TO BE RECONSIDERING THAT DECISION. SO THEY'RE A LITTLE BIT AHEAD ON THE PARTICULATE MATTER SIDE IN TERMS OF THE PROCESS OF THE NEXT REVIEW. SO THEY ACTUALLY, UH, PUT OUT GUIDELINES THAT THEY'RE LOOKING AT REVISING THAT STANDARD FOR 12 PARTS, 12 MICROGRAMS FOR HUMAN THEATERS, EXCUSE ME, [00:35:01] TO AS LOW AS EIGHT. AND IF IT GETS AS LOW AS EIGHT, THEN THAT'S THE BARE FOUNDING MEMBERS OF TEAM. AND FOR PARTICULATE MATTER AT THIS TIME, THERE'S NO, UM, THERE'S NO POLICY ASSESSMENT YET FOR OZONE. SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT THRESHOLDS THEY'RE LOOKING AT, BUT WHEN WE WERE, UM, BEFORE THIS 2013 STANDARD WAS IMPLEMENTED, HE WAS LOOKING AT BETWEEN 16 AND 70 PARTS PER BILLION. SO I IMAGINE IT'S PROBABLY A SIMILAR THRESHOLD. IT SEEMS TO BE THIS 65. THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND IT THERE WHILE YOU, UM, ADDED, CLOSE IT OUT IS THE IMPACT OF THERAPY, NOT ATTAINMENT IS WINE. ONE OF THE REASONS IN ADDITION TO TRANSPORTATION AND COST, BUT WE'VE SEEN SO MANY OF THE BIG PLANTS THAT ARE GOING OUTSIDE OF YOUR COUNTY. YOU KNOW, YOU LOOK AT THE PLANS THAT ARE IN COMPANIES THAT ARE LOCATED IN MEDINA. THEY HAD A HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT YESTERDAY. YOU LOOK AT CANAL, WHICH ALL HAVE GAINED, WHAT Y'ALL ARE GAINING YESTERDAY. THERE IS A REASON THERE. AND SO THE PARTICULATE MATTER WORRIES ME FOR SOME OF OUR SURROUNDING COUNTIES TOO, BUT THAT'S WHY THE EFFORTS IN OUR NEAR NON-ATTAINMENT COUNTIES ARE SO ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL BECAUSE SINCE OF GUADALUPE BE AND COME OUT AND WILSON ARE THREE NEAR NON-ATTAINMENT COUNTIES, EVERYTHING WE CAN DO TO KEEP THAT ENTERTAINMENT IS SO IMPORTANT. AND THAT'S WHERE WE'RE, WE'LL SEGUE INTO STEVEN'S PRESENTATION. UM, BUT THAT'S WHY THE FOCUS IS THERE, WHERE WE USED TO HAVE BEAR IN THERE, WE FAILED IT, FAILED IT BY SUCH A SMALL AMOUNT. UH, AND THAT, THAT, THAT IMPACT ON INDUSTRY, THE ONLY AS I SAY, I WAS WITH THE STATE, THEN THE ONLY REASON WE GOT TOYOTA IS BECAUSE DALLAS AND HOUSTON WERE ALREADY NOT TAKEN OTHERWISE THEY WOULD NEVER HAVE COME HERE. SO THAT SAYS A LOT ABOUT THE FUTURE. WELL, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THE BEARER OF THOSE, THAT KIND OF NEWS. SOMETIMES WE HAVE TO JUST GO WITH IT, RIGHT? WE'RE GOING TO STAY AS OPTIMISTIC AS WE POSSIBLY CAN. OKAY. LET'S MOVE THEN TO [7. Update and summary of activities conducted under the 2020-2021 Rider 7 Air Quality Planning Grant to expand ambient monitoring and inventory emissions. - Steven Smeltzer] A 907 UPDATED IN SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES CONDUCTED UNDER THE 20, 20, 20, 21 RIDER SEVEN OR QUALITY PLANNING GRANT TO EXPAND AMBIENT MONITORING AND INVENTORY EMISSIONS. STEVEN SPELLED THAT WAY. YOU SAY GOOD AFTERNOON THERE AND COMMITTEE MEMBERS. I WAS GOING TO THE BIRDIES BRIEF OVERVIEW AND WRITERS THAT HAVE AIR QUALITY THING. I KNOW THIS HAS BEEN LONG MEETINGS TODAY. UM, UH, QUICKLY GO OVER TO 2000.3 AIR QUALITY BREADS, UM, BEING THEIR BAD NEWS. UNFORTUNATELY, ADDISON THERE MORE BAD NEWS. SO THEY RIGHT NOW IS ONLY RESTRICTED TO COME ALL QUALITY DEEP IN WILSON COUNTY OR WAS THE SEVEN COUNTY AREA. NOW THIS IS THREE TIMES THE ERROR. ALSO THE BONDS BACK IN 2005 AND 2021 WAS ACTUALLY A WHOLE THIS YEAR. AND THE APPLIANCE WAS 1.9 MILLION. NOW FOR THE 2000.2 0.3, TWO YEAR PERIOD, BUYING THEM RECOUNTS PROJECTS. WE'RE LOOKING AT THAT HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED BY THESE YOUTH. WE'RE LOOKING AT IT TO EAT UROLOGICAL AND THAT, UH, BUT WHERE Y'ALL MIGHT BE NEW ROSSEAU AIRPORT ARE IN BRIDGE BECAUSE WE ALREADY PAID FOR IT AS EQUIPMENT INSTALL. IT, IT MAKES SENSE. CONTINUE IT ALSO, UM, WE DID BUY A VIEW VOC MONITOR, OR, UH, UH, I SUPPOSE WITH COUNTY BUS IS RESTRICTED TO THIS AREA AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO MOVE THAT ALL TELL YOU FOR GETTING CALMED DOWN, MONITOR TO THIS RECOUNT, THE AREAS THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT AS A BREWERY, AS GOOD AS THE MONITOR IS ACTUALLY VERY EXPENSIVE TO OPERATE. SO WE'RE ACTUALLY LOOKING FOR IT OR FIND THE OPPORTUNITY TO AFFORD A MONITOR AND MOVE TO ONE FOR EXISTING MONITORING SITES AND SEE WHAT'S BEST FOR OUR QUALITY TIME. AND WE'RE ALL GOING TO LOOK AT A COUPLE OF MISSING INVENTORY POLITICS, THE NEW FUNDS, UM, I PUT ALL THE LIST. I'M NOT GOING TO GO OVER THE DETAIL, BUT THESE ARE THE 2020 2000.13 PROJECT LIST, AND THEY WERE ALL COMPLETED. AND BASICALLY YOU LOOK AT YOUR RED CIRCLES ON THE MAP. THAT'S WHERE WE VISITED NEW NITRIC OXIDE, MONITORED AND MED STATIONS AT THOSE FOUR SITES, UH, WHERE THERE IS A PURPLE CIRCLE UP THERE, EXTENDO COUNTY DOES, WE'VE DONE A NEW NEUROLOGICAL MONITOR AND NOT CLOCK, OR THAT SITE DOWN 60.2. BUT OF COURSE, THAT MONITOR WON'T BE ABLE TO CONTINUE. AND, UM, [00:40:01] THE RESEARCHER WOULD MONITOR. WE SET OUT, WE, I SUPPOSE TO COUNT THE FATIGUE CHANCE, 16.7 OXIDE, UM, SOCKS AND ALL VOC MONITOR AT THAT SITE. BUT OF COURSE, AS BASIC THING WE NEED BECAUSE OF THE SORT OF STUFF IN CLASSES AND HE KEPT THE AREA, I GUESS IT GOES A LITTLE. SO, UH, THIS IS REPORTING STATUS SUPPORT A NITRIC OXIDE. UM, TALK ABOUT, UH, THE MONITOR RESTASIS. I'VE BEEN NITROGEN OFFSIDE BECAUSE IT IS A VERY SENSITIVE MONITOR SURGEONS LIKE ALSO MONITOR. SO WE LOOKED AT IT FIRST OR OFF STATION. WE HAD ACTUALLY RETURNED RESULTS FOR THOSE OFFSIDE VOLUNTARY, BUT, UH, FORESEE FOR . THE RETURN RATES WERE MUST FOR BERNIE LATE. WE ACTUALLY HAD A COUPLE OF LIGHTNING STRIKES ON OUR SIDE, SO IT BURNED OUT THE CIRCUIT BOARD. AND THERE'S AN OFFSIDE MONITOR. I WAS ACTUALLY A VERY BAD YEAR FOR A MOCKERY, COULD BE A NUMBER OF LANKY STRIKES ALL OVER THE MONITORING SITES. SO OUR RETURN RATE, IT WAS ONLY 47%, BUT AT LEAST IT WAS WORTH TO JULY. IT WAS OVER DOUBLE WOULD BE WORSE, AFFORDED MONITOR GOING HIGH. YOU KNOW, THE, IT WAS PRETTY GOOD. WE ONLY HAD TWO DAYS ARE BEING REPORTED SO FAR. UH, WAS YOU LIKED THE MONITOR TO HAVE A SUITABLE SITE. ALSO MONITOR WAS LIKELY DIED EARLIER, BUT IT HAS TO BE REPORTED TO WEBSITE COMMUNICATION. WE HAD THE DEAD BIRD MONITOR, BUT NOT PUBLICLY AVAILABLE YET, AND WE WANT TO MAKE IT PUBLICLY AVAILABLE. SO WE'RE WORKING WITH ECQ, TRY TO RUN THAT MONITOR ONLINE. UM, THIS IS WHERE WE SET UP THE RADAR OVER. I SOLD OURS AND WE RECYCLED ONE, A NEW ROSS AIRPORT ON ONE, A BERNOULLI DROVE THE, UH, RADAR ROLL COLOR AS NEW ROSWELL AIRPORT AND THERE'S A LITTLE MONITOR IS IF YOU SET IT UP AS IT WAS DOING DEBRIS OR MEASUREMENTS, THIS IS AN EXAMPLE, OZ AND TUBERS FROM THE RESULTS FROM THE ONE BERNIE'S OLD ARE OUT. AND YOU SEE THE DIFFERENT WAY DRUGS SINCE, UM, RELATIVE TODAY. UM, THIS IS A SUMMARY. ALSO USE THE SPEED THAT YOU CAN SEE WHAT SAYS CURRENT. SO, UH, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO DATA TO UNDERSTAND WITHOUT OUT THERE ALSO, ERNIE WAS A GOOD LOCATION TO HELP US EXPLAIN A LITTLE BIT WHAT HAVE TO DO CAN PULL US ODDS ARE AND LOOK AT AND ALSO LOOK AT BOUNDARY LAYERS. AS YOU LOOK BACK BACK THAT AIRCRAFT. SADLY, WE DID THEIR CROPS DURING THE, UM, THE OLD ZONE IN THE YEAR DOT HIGHER OF THE TWO B THEY'RE USED TO DIVERT TO NOVEMBER, 2021. WE DID A LITTLE 41 FLIGHTS. WE SAT DOWN WITH THIS ANDROID PERFECT BLUE. UM, WE ALSO LOOKED AT OTHER, UM, INDUSTRIAL SITES IN THE REGIONS, UH, DURING THESE PLAYS AT LEAST SEVEN TO FLY FOR ALL DAY, FOR THOSE ON 60 PARTS PER BILLION. WHAT WE DID THERE, FOR EXAMPLE, WE'VE HAD LIKE ONE OR TWO DAYS PRIOR TO LOOK AT, UH, ALSO OUR OLD ON SITES. SO THE EXAMPLE OF A FLIGHT THAT OCCURRED ON SEPTEMBER 24TH WAS 56 PARTS PER BILLION. UM, AND THIS IS WHERE NITROGEN OXIDE. I WORRIED AGREE THAT WHERE YOU HAVE THE OLD NITROGEN OFFSET, WHERE YOU SEE A COUPLE OF POINTS WHERE IT'S PROBABLY READ THAT AS HIGH LEVEL OF KNOTS. SO, UM, OR, UM, THE CIRCLES ON ABOUT OUR LARGE POINT SOURCES AND REASON. SO WE'RE LOOKING AT DIFFERENT NODS AND WORK ON THAT DAY. ALSO LIKE THERE'S ONE YEAR, UM, WE WERE LOOKING AT DOWNWIND FROM THE SAN ANTONIO BOOM, AND THIS IS ON DAY WHERE THE PEOPLES IN 1 71 PARTS PER BILLION, BUT YOU SEE A, OF RED ON THOSE LOTS. AND THE RED MEAT IS ABOVE 71 PARTS PER BILLION. SO I USE EITHER ADULT OR DO YOU SEE THE RED LINES? THERE'S NO MONITORS POLES ON MONITORS OUT THERE, BUT YOU SEE YOU'VE GOT ONE HOUR OLD OUT WAY ABOVE 71 PART PER BILLION OUT THERE. CUT ME OFF THE WHOLESALE LINE TO THE LITTLE BIT OF NORTHEAST, SORRY, NORTHWEST DARK ONE TO THE WEST NORTHWEST. [00:45:01] AND THERE'S QUITE A HIGH LEVEL OR ADVANCED INVENTORY. THIS IS, THIS WAS THE DIVISION BEFORE HE PROBABLY TAKES, WE DID HONOREE IS BIENNIUM BRECK, AND THIS IS THE RESULTS, THE LARGEST SOURCE OF EMISSIONS IN THE SEVEN COUNTY AREA THAT WE, UM, OBSERVED VICTORIA WAS WORRIED MIGHTY EQUIPMENT AT 0.4, SEVEN TIMES A NIGHT, YOUR JOBS PER DAY. ALSO AN OFFICER PROBABLY EASILY CAPTURED THE COMPLEX FOR HIRE GUYS BACK IS 0.3, TWO MONTHS AGO, BUT YOU LOOK AT SOME OTHER SOURCES, THEIR SCRAP AND RECYCLING AND LANDFILL OPERATORS WERE ALMOST NO IMPACT WOULD BE FROM THOSE SOURCES. THAT'S IT FOR MY GOOD, SIR. ANY QUESTIONS THERE, STEVEN, ON THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE, OBVIOUSLY, UM, IT'S BEEN, IT'S BEEN RESTRICTED, NOT ONLY THREE COUNTIES THAT YOU CAN, THAT YOU CAN USE THIS AND YOU'RE ONE OF THEM, SO YOU'RE GOOD. YOU'RE ONE OF THEM. SO, AND THEN WHAT WAS THE OTHER ONE? IT WAS A GOOD LITTLE BIT COMA, SO OKAY. UH, NOT VERY ENCOURAGING NEWS AND THAT'S PROBABLY NOT GOING TO GET ANY BETTER. WE CAN ONLY HOPE THAT MAYBE SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN WITH THE EPA, BUT THAT'S TOTALLY 100% OUT OF OUR CONTROL AT THIS TIME. RIGHT. OBVIOUSLY. SO, UH, THANKS AGAIN. IT'S IT'S GOSH, IT'S A LITTLE JUST AT TWO O'CLOCK. SO I THINK EVERYONE THANK YOU FOR STICKING AROUND THE CBD THIS AFTERNOON. CAUSE IT'S ALMOST GOING TO BE EVENING PRETTY SOON. RIGHT? AND SO WE APPRECIATE EVERYBODY FOR COMING BY. WE NEEDED TO HAVE THIS PRESENTATION. OUR NEXT MEETING WILL BE TO BE DETERMINED. UH, WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS WITH STARTS EVOLVING. UH, BUT WE'LL, WE'LL STAY ON TOP OF IT AS MUCH AS WE CAN. AND WHEN WE THINK WE NEED TO MEET AGAIN TO SHARE THIS INFORMATION, WE WILL DO SO. SO, UM, HAVING SAID THAT IT'S, ONCE THEY MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT, MAKE THAT ANNOUNCEMENT, I CAN PROMISE YOU THAT WE'LL STILL KEEP WORKING VERY, VERY DILIGENTLY WITH TCQ. UH, THEY HAVE, THEY'RE A STRONG SUPPORTER OF OURS AS OF COURSE IT HAS BEEN THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE. SO, UM, WE DO HAVE AT LEAST SOME, SOME GOOD, GOOD SUPPORT FROM AGENCIES THAT ARE VERY CRITICAL TO, TO THIS WHOLE PROCESS. SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR COMING. THIS MEETING IS NOW ADJOURNED.
