Jewett, Co- chairman Senator Pete Corpstein, Co- chairman Representative Peter Goudinoff Senator Alan Stephens Randolph Wood, Director, Department of Environmental Quality Supervisor Raul Grijalva, Pima County Supervisor Carole carpenter, Maricopa County Councilman Roy Laos, City of Tucson Councilman Paul Johnson, City of Phoenix Pamela Beilke, Tucson Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce Mark DeMichele, Phoenix Chamber of Commerce Robert D. Willis, Governor's Appointee James Bennitt, Governor's Appointee I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I AUTHORITY AND SCOPE OF DUTIES The Air Quality Compliance Advisory Committee ( Laws 1988, Chapter 252, Section 15 · ) was established asa means of monitoring compliance with state air quality laws. The current committee is actually a variation on the Committee on Air Quality Compliance ( Laws 1987, Chapter 365, Section 27') which was part of Senate Bill 1360 from 1987. The legislation establishing the original committee was repealed ( Laws 1988, Chapter 252, Section 12 · ) because lawmakers wanted to place the provision in statute ( A. R. S. § 49- 403 · ) rather than session law as it had formerly appeared. The Committee's scope was also broadened so that it now monitors compliance with all requirements under the 1988 air quality legislation, rather than just those areas dealing with air pollution control. Represented on the Committee are the ~ tate Legislature, the Maricopa and Pima County Boards of Supervisors, the Phoenix and Tucson City Councils, the Phoenix and Tucson Chambers of Commerce, the Department of Environmental Quality, and the Governor, who appoints three members to the Committee. The Air Quality Compliance Advisory Committee is repealed from and after November 1, 1992 ( Laws 1988, Chapter 252, Section 16 · ). The duties of the Committee are: 1. to monitor the compliance of this state and cities, towns and counties of this state with the requirements of this chapter dealing with air quality; 2. to develop a plan for business to adjust the work schedules of employees in order to reduce the level of carbon monoxide ( CO) concentrations caused by vehicular travel; 3. to evaluate the reports submitted pursuant to Sections 49- 404 · · and 49- 553 · , take public testimony and receive written comments on such reports; See appendix A. A. R. S. § 49- 404 was repealed by Laws 1988, Ch 252, Sec. 16, par. 2. 4. to prepare a report to both houses of the Legislature. The report shall include recommendations for any changes needed in the air quality legislation. Legislative staff must submit a report containing the number and nature of complaints received regarding the Vehicle Emissions Inspection ( VEl) Program.' COMMITTEE ACTIVITY The Committee met once, on November 28, 1989, and received reports from various agencies and industry spokespersons regarding compliance with state air quality statutes. z The following agencies reported to the Committee: Depar. tment of Environmental Quality ( DEQ) DEQ distributed its annual briefing book, Reports to the Legislature3 which highlights the Department's responsibilities under HB 2206, enacted in 1988. William Watson, Manager of the Vehicle Emissions Section of the Office of Air Quality for the DEQ, testified that calls related to the oxygenated fuels program are down to seven per day from the 217 per day that were coming in at the beginning of the program. Watson also said that, due to the oxygenated fuels program, CO emissions are down by 20 percent. However, he added that nitrogen oxide ( NO~) emissions will increase slightly from the use of oxygenated fuels. A study prepared for the DEQ revealed several impediments to annual tailpipe testing for NO~. The Department called for additional study before mandating annual NO~ testing. Ken Evans, Manager of the Air Quality Evaluation Unit of the DEQ, addressed I See appendix B. Z See appendix C. 3 A copy of the cover letter from Reports to the Legislature is contained in appendix 0; a copy of the report is availabl€ from DEQ. - 2 - I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I .1 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I the subject of expanding the VEl program boundaries. The DEQ and the Arizona Department of Transportation ( ADOT) conducted traffic surveys last winter to determine the benefits of expanding the boundaries of the program. Their report concluded that expanding the boundaries would result in immeasurable reductions in CO and ozone pollution. Regarding the effectiveness of the current VEl program, Watson told Committee members that the implementation of the new loaded mode test has resulted in failure patterns among certain models. Efforts are underway to get makers of pattern- case failure vehicles to recall the failing vehicles so that they may be repaired at no cost to the owners. The Department reported progress in researching the air quality benefits of alternative fuels and Reid Vapor Pressure controls. The cost- benefit analysis required by A. R. S. § 49- SS3. A. S4 will be completed by December, 1989. Ken Evans informed the Committee that the only exceedance so far reported during this CO season occurred recently. Most violations occur in the month of October. According to Evans, the most effective tool for reducing CO violations is to reduce the number of vehicle miles traveled. In other reports, the DEQ said that " no installation of new traffic flow improvement monitors would result in a lower number of violations" and, in reference to the Department's toxic emissions analysis, Watson said that while oxygenated fuels can reduce tailpipe emissions of benzene, aldehyde emissions tend to increase with their use. In closing, DEQ responded to co- chairman Jack B. Jewett's request to give an overview of the procedure the Department took in selecting Gordon- Darby Inc. 4 See appendix A. - 3 - as the next VEl program contractor. Jewett asked whether a performance bond was requi red of Gordon- Darby. Watson answered that a performance bond was not required in the contract, but that the contractor would have to pay stiff daily penalties for nonperformance. Representative Peter Goudinoff questioned GordonDarby's ability to enter the contract at such a reduced price and then to promise additional services. Watson said that Gordon- Darby uses modern technology which would allow them to operate the program for less. Randy Wood, Director of DEQ, and member of the Committee, added that Hamilton Test Systems, the current VEl contractor, charges what they have to charge in order to support their te€ hnology. Arizona Department of Transportation ( ADaT) Charl es Mi 11 er, Di rector of ADaT, summari zed the fi nd i ngs of the ADOT Alternative Fuels Stud y5 required by A. R. S. § 49- 404. Miller said that there were no reports of disintegrated parts or other fuel- related damage. ADOT found the fuels to be readily available and at an insignificant increase in cost. The Department finished its test this year with 79 of the original 90 vehicles. Some vehicles were dropped from the study due to damage from accidents, testing errors, etc. The vehicles were emissions tested through the state VEl program operated by Hamilton Test Systems. The ADaT study reported only marginal reductions in CO. However, Miller emphasized that ADaT's results do not conflict with the DEQ's tests findings which show a 20% reduction in CO. He said that the two agencies used two different processes. The Federal Testing Procedure ( FTP) used by the DEQ is much more rigorous than the state VEl test. 5 The DEQ emissions test results for the Alternative Fuels Study are contained in appe~ ix E. A copy of the Alternative Fuels Study is available from AC :-. - 4 - I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Maricopa Association of Governments ( MAG) Lindy Bauer, Envi ronmenta1 Programs Coordi nator for MAG, di scussed the status report on the three air quality plans, future MAG activities, and the most recent air quality lawsuit. Bauer said that MAG now bel ieves that the 22 percent reduction in CO targeted for 1991 by the Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA) was " overly optimistic." Though overall growth in the region has slowed, the number of vehicle miles traveled has increased. The EPA approved the MAG CO plan on August la, 1988, and said that the measures in the plan would allow us to maintain curr. ent levels for 10 years. According to Bauer, the latest air quality lawsuit attacks the EPA for failing to consider the increase in the vehicle miles traveled in the MAG region when approving the plan. Also, the delay in freeway construction may impact the la- year maintenance plan for CO. The cities of Tucson and Phoenix are brought under fire for neglecting to implement plans for transit, including increasing the number of buses in their systems. Bauer reported that the ozone plan was submitted in July, 1987, with no commitment for Stage II Vapor Recovery. MAG has received a State Implementation Plan ( SIP) call to prepare a new ozone plan two years after EPA finalizes the proposed 1987 CO and ozone policy. To date, EPA has not gone final with the ozone policy. The current status of the policy is unknown. According to Bauer, the most difficult problem for MAG to work with is the particulate problem. A 34.4 percent reduction in PM- 10 emissions is needed by 1992 in order to attain the particulate standard. MAG's future activities include working with Maricopa County on its Trip Reduction Ordinance ( TRO), the Brown Cloud Study, and updating the MAG Freeway - 5 - Plan. In closing, Bauer informed Committee members that the federal government is now considering a requirement that California's new car emissions standards be applied to the entire country. These standards would be beneficial to the carbon monoxide and ozone problem in Maricopa County. Weights and Measures In revi ewi ng the fi rst few weeks of the oxygenated fuel s program Di ck Wolfe, Deputy Director of Weights and Measures, said state officials should have encouraged the industry to make an earlier transition to the new fuels. The Department reported 48 stop sale orders and 32 removal orders so far in the program. Despite these problems, Wolfe said that compliance is high. He noted that the majors have made smoother transitions and committed fewer violations than their independent competitors. Wolfe provided Committee members with a copy of Weights and Measures' Guidelines for Use and Sale of Motor Fuels and Petroleum Products. 6 Arizona Petroleum Resources Group Charles T. Stevens, · representing the Arizona Petroleum Resources Group, a lobby comprised of the major oil companies marketing in Arizona, praised what he called " a successful program." Stevens said that only a few start- up problems were encountered in the initial weeks of the program. He explained that some companies are blending the oxygenate with the fuel in California and shipping it here while others are shipping the oxygenate and the neat gas to Arizona to be either splash- blended or in- line blended here. The major oil companies did not offer any suggestions for improving the legislation. 6 See appendix F. - 6 - I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Atlantic Richfield Company ( ARCO) Jim White, Manager of ARCO's Environmental Legislation and Regulation division, spoke on his company's experience with the oxygenated fuels program thus far. ARCO had received no fuel- related complaints during the two weeks preceding the meeting of the Air Quality Compliance Advisory Committee and reported no serious fuel- related problems to date. White said that ARCO remains concerned over the negative press that is given to ethanol; he added that there seems to be a misperception that one cannot switch from one oxygenate to another. Pima Association of Governments ( PAG) Hank Eyrich, Physical Planning Manag'er for PAG, gave an update on PAG's air quality compliance programs. 7 Eyrich said that the most effective strategies have been the expansion and strengthening of the VEl program and the implementation of a travel reduction ordinance ( TRO). Pima County is marginal in ozone and particulate pollution. Eyrich noted that PM- 10 is very difficult to model. Pima County Marian Slavin, Travel Reduction Program Manager for Pima County, discussed the Pima County TRO. 8 The DEQ provides about $ 250,000 in funds to the TRO. The County reports that 120 major employers are involved with 90,000 employees at 154 sites. According to Slavin, 23 plans have been approved by the Travel Reduction Program Task Force and have been sent for review by the lead agency. Tucson Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce According to Dan Cavanagh, Group Vice President of the Tucson Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce, some complaints were lodged regarding the scope of the 7 See appendix G. 8 See appendix H. - 7 - Travel Reduction Program; however, he added that many businesses with under 100 employees participated voluntarily. Maricopa County Harvel Alishouse, Air Quality Advisor to the Maricopa County Department of Publ ic Health, introduced the Maricopa County TRO program. According to Alishouse, 52.5 million miles are traveled daily in the Valley. He said that the plans of major employees are the first to be approved. Alishouse introduced Suzanne Pfi ster of the Reg iona1 Pub1i c Transportat ion Authori ty, the subcontractor of the program, to outline the details of the TRO. Regional Publ ic Transportation Authority · ( RPTAl Suzanne Pfister, Manager of Community Affairs, presented an update on the TRO and the Clean Air Campaign. 9 RPTA's function is to provide technical and administrative support to the County for its TRO program. Pfister said that about 180,00 employees are represented in the program now. For every dollar spent from the Air Quality fund, seven dollars were donated. One hundred and forty- two thousand people took advantage of the free bus day October 18, 1989; average ridership is 93,000 per day. The free bus day cost about 550,000 and was funded by part of a grant from DEQ. The RPTA noted a 37 percent increase in participation in the Clean Air Campaign this year, as well as a 97 percent awareness rate. Regarding the TRO, Pfister said that all businesses with 500 or more employees have completed the survey process. One hundred and fifty employers with 200- 400 employees are currently being surveyed. Regional Travel Reduction Task Force Lonnie Hurst, Chairman of the Task Force, discussed the industries' 9 See appendix T. - 8 - I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I' I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I perception of the TRO program. Hurst reported a varied response from the industries. While large employers have been responsive, many of the smaller employers have been reluctant. Hurst said that the Task Force's major goal is to get smaller employers to work together more. - 9 - I I 38th LEGISLATURE etlan,•• or addition. in t. xt ar. indicated by CAPITALS; Ch. 365 1987. 1420 F.

Another observation is that we receive complaints about unprofessional discourteous behavior on the part of Hamilton Test Systems' personnel. Again, these can be grouped into a minimum of two categories of those who pass or fail the test. Most of the complaints are associated with those who fail the test. A summary of this activity is listed below: Our records indicate that we receive approximately one complaint per day on the average. However, many of these complaints are associated with people who fail the emissions test for various reasons and believe that the failure was an incorrect decision. We often determine that the fail decision was accurate and after obtaining additional information on the subject, explain this to the caller. 600 North 40th Street ROSE MOFFORD, GOVERNOR RANDOLPH WOOD, DlRECfOR I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Ken Heaton November 27, 1989 Page 2 This information is tabulated by the clerical staff that is assigned these duties, however, all personnel ( at times) answer the phones.

A. 1 2005 North Central Avenue Hull uncertainties exist about the proper loaded test procedure for pass/ fail standards; NOx Feasibility: The report reviews relevant testing programs in other states, discusses the status of Federal new car standards for NOx, and makes recommendations for future state policy. Consistent with last year's reports, this one documents several impediments to the implementation of an annual tailpipe test for NOx: This report was prepared under contract with Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. The consultant has reviewed the " benefits, test methods and feasibility" of requiring emissions testing for diesel powered vehicles in general and the options for testing gasoline and diesel powered vehicles for nitrogen oxide ( NOx) emissions. NOx emissions are of concern as they contribute to ozone formation. Air Quality Reports 1.

The repair industry is relatively uninformed about the causes of high NOx emissions and types of appropriate repairs, requiring considerable training; Accurate diagnoses and repair would require each vehicle repair facility to invest over $ 10,000 in a dynamometer and other equipment. Expansion of I & M Area: A. R. S. § 49- 553. A. 2 This report provides an assessment of the expected benefits of expanding the Vehicle Emissions Inspection Program boundaries, based on traffic surveys conducted last winter by ADEQ and ADOT. The report concludes that expanding test boundaries to contiguous areas would produce immeasurably small cuts in carbon monoxide and ozone pollution. I & M Effectiveness: A. R. S. § 49- 553. A. 3 This report, prepared by Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. under contract, provides an in- depth analysis of the benefits of the Vehicle Emission Inspections program. As part of the analysis, EEA examined the benefits of the new loaded mode test, and the implications of the discovery that several models and makes fail this test in disproportionate numbers. Nine of the twelve failing vehicle families have already been SUbject to an EPA recall for failure of emissions control systems. The report concludes that these high failure rates show that these vehicles were not repaired properly. Because Arizona's " tailpipe" test identifies these vehicles, the loaded test is effective in ide~ tifying high polluters. Air Quality Effects of the Arizona oxygenated Fuels Program and Reid Vapor Pressure: A. R. S. § 49- 553.

Cost Benefit: A. R. S. § 49- 553. A. 5 The report submitted to the Legislature last year determined that cost- benefit analysis would be very expensive to perform and would not yield results useful to policy makers. The Department, in its presentation to the Air Quality Compliance Committee, suggested that cost- effectiveness analysis would be a less expensive and more beneficial approach to the question posed by the Legislature. This suggestion was well received, and the Department proceeded with a cost- effectiveness study. Regretfully, we have been unable to complete this report in time for this submittal. A draft report containing cost effectiveness analysis for the vehicle emissions program, oxygenated fuels, voluntary no- drive days, and trip reduction programs will be completed by October 1, 1989. A final report including cost effectiveness analysis for all carbon monoxide reduction programs contained in A. R. S., Title 49, Chapter 3 will be completed by December, 1989. This study is being prepared under a contract with the U of A Center for Business and Economic Research. Causes of Violations at Monitors: A. R. S. § 49- 553. A. 6 This report provides an overview of Arizona Air Quality Monitoring System and its relationship to the EPA prescribed modeling. The relationship of local traffic patterns to carbon monoxide violations is explained, and anticipated ADEQ analysis of violation patterns is discussed. Consistent with last year I s study, this report documents that high carbon monoxide levels represent a regional air quality problem. Furthermore, no installation of new traffic flow improvement monitors would result in lower number of violations. The 1990 report may be a slightly expanded discussion or may need to address new issues raised by the legislature. Toxic Emissions Analysis: A. R. S. § 49- 553. B This report is a comprehensive review of current research on vehicular toxic emissions conducted throughout the country. Initial conversations with EPA and engineering consultants suggest that this type of research is in its infancy at the national level and may be difficult to conduct at the new ADEQ Emissions Research Lab. This report also provides recommendations for conducting the research at the DEQ Vehicle Emissions Research facility. 3 The report includes research showing that the use of oxygenated fuel can reduce tailpipe emissions of benzene, a known cancer causing compound. At the same time, the use of these fuels will likely increase tailpipe emissions of aldehydes, another carcinogen. We expect to work closely with the Legislature and the Air Quality Compliance Advisory Committee to ensure that our research will provide the information you need for future policy decisions. We would be pleased to have the comments or suggestions for future reports, or to brief you on these issues.

An increas ing popu lat ion ( both human and vehicle) and corrcs pond lng increases in various environmental pollutants has prompted the State of Arizona to enact legislation establishing controls and mandating research aimed at abatement. HE 2115 and SB 1360 mandated an alternative- fuels fleet study to be performed by the Arizona De9artment of Transportation ( ADOT), and HB 2206 mandated a vehicle emissions study of a representative portion of the ADOT fleet to be performed by the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality ( ADEQ). By Frank W. Cox October 24, 1989 The ADOT vehicle fleet was put into service in October of 1987 using unleaded gasoline to gather baseline performance and I& M emission data. In January of 1988 the use of the baseline gasoline was discontinued and opera tion on the var ious al ternat ive fuels began. In February of 1989, after thirteen months of operation on the alternative fuels, the ADEQ Emiss ions Research Laboratory ( ERL) began tes ting selected ADOT fleet vehicles to determine' the effect, if any, of the alternative fuels on evaporative and exhaust emissions as compared to these emissions generated by the use of unleaded gasoline. ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY This report contains the summarized data obtained from the ERL testing and discussions of this data and the test methods. The tes t vehicle fleet is listed in Table 1. The only vehicle type included in the ADOT fleet which was not tested was the 1984 Chevrolet 510 pickup. This vehicle type was omitted from the test fleet because of its s imilarity to the 1983 Chevrolet S10 pickup. In order to directly compare fuel effects, vehicles 1 thru 5 were tested wi th unleaded gasoline and two discreet oxygenated fuels, one containing methyl tertiarybutyl ether ( MTBE) and the other containing ethanol ( EtOH) . Vehicle 6 was a gasoline/ CNG ( compressed na tural gas) dualfueled vehicle and was tested only with these two fuels ( no oxygenated fuel subs t i tutcd for the gasoline). Vehicle 7 had been converted to liquid petroleum gas ( LPG), was fuel dedicated, and could not be tested with other fuels. The remaining vehicle ( 8) was tested with unleaded gasoline and wi th a third oxygenated fuel containing methanol ( MeOH). Vehic les 6, 7, and 8 were, with respect to emiss ion control sys tern and to engine size and configuration, similar to vehicles 5,4, and J, respectively. 600 North 40th Street ROSE ~' OFFORn.

Gasoline/ 5% MeOH/ 5% TBA Fuel samples were taken from the storage tanks at the ADOT fueling depots. The criterion for acceptance for testing was that the RVPs of the liquid fuels be similar. Fuels, 1,2, and 3 were judged to be acceptable, but the. vapor pressure of the " Oxinol" blend was too low. The entire supplies of fuels 1,2, and 3 were taken as single batches of the individual fuels directly from the ADOT storage tanks into 55gallon drums and immediately sealed. The storage tanks from which the tes t fuels were taken were the same as those from which the original samples were obtained. The " Oxinol" test fuel was acquired after the ADOT took delivery of a new batch. The vapor pressure of this fuel was within the desired range. Upon delivery, each vehicle fuel tank was removed and a drain line and thermocouple were installed. The drain line was extended to the lowest point of the tank and the thermocouple to the midpoint between the tank bottom and the fuel surface at the 40% nominal fuel tank volume level. Each tank was then pressurized to 3 psi air to ensure vapor tightness and reinstalled on the vehicle. Each vehicle was checked for engine vacuum leaks and faulty spark plugs and spark plug wires. These were the only maintenance items replaced when found to be faulty. Engine operatinq parameters were also checked and, excepting the LPG and CNG vehicles, set to factory specifications. Vehicle preparation was completed with checks of the exhaust system and installed fuel tank for leaks. This was accomplished with the instrument bench hydrocarbon analyzer by attaching a 3- port valve and sniff line between the sample inlet and the analyzer. I · I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I At the end of testing, the thermocouple was removed from the fuel tank and the fittings installed for the thermocouple and drain line were capped. With three exceptions, to be discussed below, the Federal Test Procedure ( FTP) was used for all tests. The details of the procedure are given in the Code of Federal Regulations ( CFR) Title 40, Part 86, Subpart B. This reference also gives the details of the required equipment, calibrations, and conditions. One departure from the FTP concerned the ambient test temperature limits. The FTP requires that the temperature to which the vehicle and tes t equipmen t are exposed be main tained wi thin the 1 imi ts, 68 ° F to 86° F. Since the available test fuels were winter grade ( vapor pressures at the lower end of volatility class D), the decision was made tc test at lower than the specified ambient temperature range~ An ambien t temperature range of 51 ° F to. 6.9 ° F was chosen ( a - 17 ° F offset from the FTP) because 1. it was believed to be the lowest feas ible range at which the facility could be maintained, 2. this range more nearly simulates winter temperatures in Maricopa county, and 3. the FTP specified temperatures would result in unrealistic canister loading during the pretest soak period. The diurnal ( or heat build) evaporative ( SHED) test is intended to measure evaporative losses during a simulated diurnal ( daily) temperature rise. Testing at lower ambient temperatures required that the temperature range for the fuel heat build also be lowered. Accordingly, this range was lowered 17° F from the FTP to 43° F- 67° F. The FTP heat build ramp was maintained. Preceding the 12- 36 hour soak period prior to testing, the FTP stipulates that the fuel tank be drained, the vehicle refueled to the required volume, and then driven on the dynomometer according to the Urban Dynomometer Driving Schedule ( UDDS) and at the vehicle test weight and horsepower. The UDDS is required within one hour of refueling. The FTP allows up to three additional preconditioning driving cycles, each preceded by a one hour soak period. Since each ADOT test fuel was significantly different from the others, and to minimize memory effects, a three- driving- cycle schedule was adopted for preconditioning when the test fuel was different from the preceding test. For back- to- back tests with the same fuel, the single preconditioning driving cycle was used. The three- driving- cycle schedule was: 1. drain and refuel 2. UDDS driving cycle within one hour of refueling 3. ten minute soak 4. UDDS driving cycle S. one hour soak 6. drain and refuel 7. UDDS driving cycle. - 3- The soak period between the first and second driving cycles was reduced to ten minutes to conserve time and the extra refueling was included as an added measure to minimize memory effects of the previous fuel. The fuel sequence was random beginning or ending the test series with no particular fuel. For the first test, however, each vehicle was preconditioned using the three- driving- cycle schedule. At leas t two tes ts were performed wi th each vehicle / fuel couple. A third test was performed when agreement between the duplicate tests was judged to be inadequa te or when FTP limits were exceeded to a po in t considered to be capable of producing significant effects on test data. Results and Discussions The resul ts of the emiss ions tes t program are presen ted in Table 2. Except ing the SHED emiss ions for vehicle B545 in the eNG mode, each emission value is the arithmetic average of at least duplicate tests, and in some cases, triplicate tests. The number of vehicles was small and little effort was exerted to verify mechanical condition or emission control functionality. Therefore, no statistical evaluation has been performed to determine the significance of data magnitude or relativity. This discussion is based upon a general interpretation of the data and the resulting conclusions reflect the opinion of the author. Evaporative emissions are primarily effected by 1. test temperature ( and temperature ramp), 2. fuel composition and volatility, 3. the type and condition of the fuel handling system, and 4. the configuration and condition of the evaporative emission controls. Since both ambient and heat build tempera tures were lowered by 17 0 F from the FTP, the SHED data can only be internally compared. The magnitude of the evaporative emissions is significant only for comparison of the various fuels with a single vehicle. Relative data can, however, be compared across the vehicle/ fuel matrix. The fuel vapor pressures given previously in this report would lead to a tentative conclusion that the evaporative emissions from the gasoline should be lower than from the al terna tive liquid fuels. The da ta, however, do not support this conclusion. At face value, the data indicate that essentially equivalent vapors are emitted from the MTBE fuel as compared to gasoline and lower levels are emitted from the EtOH fuel. A number of parameters which influence evaporative emissions must be considered. First, RVP is a measure of volatility at 100 0 F and the rate of vapor pressure change as a function of temperature is not known for the test fuels. In add it ion, the his tory and condition of the control canisters is not known, and the average replicate variation of all vehicle/ fuel couples was about 20%, a variability consistent with literature values. These uncertainties leave little doubt that no conclusion can be drawn with respect to the effect of fuel composition upon evaporative emissions. - 4- I I I I' I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I The repeatability of the exhaust measurements was much better than that for evaporative emissions. The average replicate variations for all vehicle/ fuel couples were about 8.5% for hydrocarbons, 7.0% for ni trogen oxides, and 12.5% for carbon monoxide. Actual fuel vapor pressure and vapor control canister condition cannot be ignored as exhaust emission variables, but their effects should be less prominent with respect to exhaust emissions as compared to evaporative emissions. For the group of five vehicles tested with gasoline, MTBE, and EtOH fuels: the emission trends for the oxygenated fuels relative to gasoline are: 1. hydrocarbons - decreases for both MTBE and EtOH, 2. nitrogen oxides - no apparent effect for either oxygena ted fuel, and 3. carbon monoxide - decreases for both MTBE and EtOH. These general trends are also cons is ten t with the gasoline/" Ox inol" test results. The oxygenated fuels produced no positive deviations for hydrocarbon emissions and the two deviations shown for NO emissions are very close to the average variation for replicate tests. x One emiss ion anomaly shown in Table 2 requires discuss ion. Vehicle B729 with MTBE shows a 29.4% increase for CO as compared to gasoline. This vehicle was exceptionally hard to start and required triplicate tests with MTBE. The CO levels produced by the independent tests were 5.1, 3.0, and 5.2 grams/ mile. Long cold starts for the first and third tests produced high phase 1 emissions, but this did not account for the difference between 3 and 5 grams / mile. Further analys is of the raw data revealed consistently high CO emissions in phase 3 ( the hot start) of the tests with MTBE as compared to either gasoline or the EtOH fuel. The only conclusion supported by the data is that this vehicle, under the test conditions and in its operating condition at the time, did produce higher CO emiss ions with MTBE fuel than with gasol ine. The author cannot offer a reasonable explanation for this anomaly. Excepting the vehicle/ fuel anomaly discussed in the preceding paragraph, the CO emissions with the oxygenated fuels are substantially lower than those produced with gasoline. The average decreases ( percent change with respect to gasoline) for both MTBE and EtOH fuels are larger than the corresponding average duplication variations. Very little can be said about the single vehicle ( BC32) tested wi th gasoline and an " Oxinol" type oxygenated blend other than the exhaust emiss ion changes for the oxygenated fuel relative to gasoline agree with the changes shown for the 5- vehicle X 3- fuel matrix discussed above. Extreme caution must be practiced when comparing test results from two vehicles. The exhaust emissions from the propane fueled vehicle (£ 3745), however, are impressively low when compared to the emissions from a similar vehicle ( B729) operating on the liquid fuels. - 5- The dual- fueled gasoline/ CNG vehicle ( 3545) emiss ions are not representative. Test results prompted an " after- the- fact" more detailed inspection of the vehicle. Apparently, a faulty PCV valve had caused engine oil to be drawn into the intake system. 80th the intake air filter and the evaporative control canister were saturated with engine oil. Comparing emissions from this vehicle, again with reservations, to those from a similar vehicle ( 8511) leads to the conclusion that the dual- fueled vehicle was operating fuel rich with gasoline and exceptionally fuel rich with CNG. The significance of the vehicle 8545 data lies in their value for demonstrating the high evaporative emissions associated with an inoperative control canister and the change in exhaust emissions associated with fuel rich operation ( exhaust NO is lowered, but HC and CO emiss ions increase: at some point, to in~ olerable levels). It is well known that the composition of exhaust hydrocarbon emissions. is similar to the fuel hydrocarbon composition. The methane fractions of vehicle 8545 exhaust hydrocarbon emissions were calculated and found to average 7.9% with gasoline and 71.3% when the vehicle was fueled by CNG. The large increase in the methane portion of the hydrocarbon emissions is indicative of a decrease in reactivity with respect to atmospheric smog formation. Table 2 also con tains volumetric fuel economy ( FE) values. Since the UDDS involves very little steady state operation at cruise speeds, the FE magnitude is not directly relatable to user service. The values in the table should, however, approximate the fuel economy of the vehicles when opera ted in popula ted areas. The volumetric FE gains shown for MT8E ( 8938) and for MTBE and EtOH ( 8511) resulted from two ( of twelve) anomalous exhaust C~ levels. CO2 was low for one of the duplicate tests of 8938 with MTBE fuel and high for one of the duplicate tests of 8511 wi th gasoline. The volumetric energy con tent of the oxygenated fuels is slightly less than that of gasoline and a small corresponding decrease in volumetric fuel economy should be expected. The 2.2% average loss for the oxygenated fuels ( disregarding the values discussed above) is reasonable. The volumetric fuel economies for the vehicles operating on gaseous fuels ( CNG and LPG) are given in gasoline equivalen ts based upon the energy consumed. The energy charge density within the engine cannot be main tained with carbureted gaseous fuels as compared to liquid fuels ( there is a volumetric efficiency loss); therefore, a fuel economy loss is inevitable. The fuel economy based upon energy content is given in Table 3 in terms of 8TU consumption per mile traveled. These data show that there is little, if any, difference in operating efficiency associated with the use of any of the liquid fuels. Disregarding the three values discussed earlier in conjunction with volumetric fuel economy, the average change in fuel- energy economy was + 0.4% when the oxygenated fu~ ls were used. - 6- I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I .

Jewett, Co- chairman Senator Pete Corpstein, Co- chairman Representative Peter Goudinoff Senator Alan Stephens Randolph Wood, Director, Department of Environmental Quality Supervisor Raul Grijalva, Pima County Supervisor Carole carpenter, Maricopa County Councilman Roy Laos, City of Tucson Councilman Paul Johnson, City of Phoenix Pamela Beilke, Tucson Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce Mark DeMichele, Phoenix Chamber of Commerce Robert D. Willis, Governor's Appointee James Bennitt, Governor's Appointee I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I AUTHORITY AND SCOPE OF DUTIES The Air Quality Compliance Advisory Committee ( Laws 1988, Chapter 252, Section 15 · ) was established asa means of monitoring compliance with state air quality laws. The current committee is actually a variation on the Committee on Air Quality Compliance ( Laws 1987, Chapter 365, Section 27') which was part of Senate Bill 1360 from 1987. The legislation establishing the original committee was repealed ( Laws 1988, Chapter 252, Section 12 · ) because lawmakers wanted to place the provision in statute ( A. R. S. § 49- 403 · ) rather than session law as it had formerly appeared. The Committee's scope was also broadened so that it now monitors compliance with all requirements under the 1988 air quality legislation, rather than just those areas dealing with air pollution control. Represented on the Committee are the ~ tate Legislature, the Maricopa and Pima County Boards of Supervisors, the Phoenix and Tucson City Councils, the Phoenix and Tucson Chambers of Commerce, the Department of Environmental Quality, and the Governor, who appoints three members to the Committee. The Air Quality Compliance Advisory Committee is repealed from and after November 1, 1992 ( Laws 1988, Chapter 252, Section 16 · ). The duties of the Committee are: 1. to monitor the compliance of this state and cities, towns and counties of this state with the requirements of this chapter dealing with air quality; 2. to develop a plan for business to adjust the work schedules of employees in order to reduce the level of carbon monoxide ( CO) concentrations caused by vehicular travel; 3. to evaluate the reports submitted pursuant to Sections 49- 404 · · and 49- 553 · , take public testimony and receive written comments on such reports; See appendix A. A. R. S. § 49- 404 was repealed by Laws 1988, Ch 252, Sec. 16, par. 2. 4. to prepare a report to both houses of the Legislature. The report shall include recommendations for any changes needed in the air quality legislation. Legislative staff must submit a report containing the number and nature of complaints received regarding the Vehicle Emissions Inspection ( VEl) Program.' COMMITTEE ACTIVITY The Committee met once, on November 28, 1989, and received reports from various agencies and industry spokespersons regarding compliance with state air quality statutes. z The following agencies reported to the Committee: Depar. tment of Environmental Quality ( DEQ) DEQ distributed its annual briefing book, Reports to the Legislature3 which highlights the Department's responsibilities under HB 2206, enacted in 1988. William Watson, Manager of the Vehicle Emissions Section of the Office of Air Quality for the DEQ, testified that calls related to the oxygenated fuels program are down to seven per day from the 217 per day that were coming in at the beginning of the program. Watson also said that, due to the oxygenated fuels program, CO emissions are down by 20 percent. However, he added that nitrogen oxide ( NO~) emissions will increase slightly from the use of oxygenated fuels. A study prepared for the DEQ revealed several impediments to annual tailpipe testing for NO~. The Department called for additional study before mandating annual NO~ testing. Ken Evans, Manager of the Air Quality Evaluation Unit of the DEQ, addressed I See appendix B. Z See appendix C. 3 A copy of the cover letter from Reports to the Legislature is contained in appendix 0; a copy of the report is availabl€ from DEQ. - 2 - I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I .1 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I the subject of expanding the VEl program boundaries. The DEQ and the Arizona Department of Transportation ( ADOT) conducted traffic surveys last winter to determine the benefits of expanding the boundaries of the program. Their report concluded that expanding the boundaries would result in immeasurable reductions in CO and ozone pollution. Regarding the effectiveness of the current VEl program, Watson told Committee members that the implementation of the new loaded mode test has resulted in failure patterns among certain models. Efforts are underway to get makers of pattern- case failure vehicles to recall the failing vehicles so that they may be repaired at no cost to the owners. The Department reported progress in researching the air quality benefits of alternative fuels and Reid Vapor Pressure controls. The cost- benefit analysis required by A. R. S. § 49- SS3. A. S4 will be completed by December, 1989. Ken Evans informed the Committee that the only exceedance so far reported during this CO season occurred recently. Most violations occur in the month of October. According to Evans, the most effective tool for reducing CO violations is to reduce the number of vehicle miles traveled. In other reports, the DEQ said that " no installation of new traffic flow improvement monitors would result in a lower number of violations" and, in reference to the Department's toxic emissions analysis, Watson said that while oxygenated fuels can reduce tailpipe emissions of benzene, aldehyde emissions tend to increase with their use. In closing, DEQ responded to co- chairman Jack B. Jewett's request to give an overview of the procedure the Department took in selecting Gordon- Darby Inc. 4 See appendix A. - 3 - as the next VEl program contractor. Jewett asked whether a performance bond was requi red of Gordon- Darby. Watson answered that a performance bond was not required in the contract, but that the contractor would have to pay stiff daily penalties for nonperformance. Representative Peter Goudinoff questioned GordonDarby's ability to enter the contract at such a reduced price and then to promise additional services. Watson said that Gordon- Darby uses modern technology which would allow them to operate the program for less. Randy Wood, Director of DEQ, and member of the Committee, added that Hamilton Test Systems, the current VEl contractor, charges what they have to charge in order to support their te€ hnology. Arizona Department of Transportation ( ADaT) Charl es Mi 11 er, Di rector of ADaT, summari zed the fi nd i ngs of the ADOT Alternative Fuels Stud y5 required by A. R. S. § 49- 404. Miller said that there were no reports of disintegrated parts or other fuel- related damage. ADOT found the fuels to be readily available and at an insignificant increase in cost. The Department finished its test this year with 79 of the original 90 vehicles. Some vehicles were dropped from the study due to damage from accidents, testing errors, etc. The vehicles were emissions tested through the state VEl program operated by Hamilton Test Systems. The ADaT study reported only marginal reductions in CO. However, Miller emphasized that ADaT's results do not conflict with the DEQ's tests findings which show a 20% reduction in CO. He said that the two agencies used two different processes. The Federal Testing Procedure ( FTP) used by the DEQ is much more rigorous than the state VEl test. 5 The DEQ emissions test results for the Alternative Fuels Study are contained in appe~ ix E. A copy of the Alternative Fuels Study is available from AC :-. - 4 - I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Maricopa Association of Governments ( MAG) Lindy Bauer, Envi ronmenta1 Programs Coordi nator for MAG, di scussed the status report on the three air quality plans, future MAG activities, and the most recent air quality lawsuit. Bauer said that MAG now bel ieves that the 22 percent reduction in CO targeted for 1991 by the Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA) was " overly optimistic." Though overall growth in the region has slowed, the number of vehicle miles traveled has increased. The EPA approved the MAG CO plan on August la, 1988, and said that the measures in the plan would allow us to maintain curr. ent levels for 10 years. According to Bauer, the latest air quality lawsuit attacks the EPA for failing to consider the increase in the vehicle miles traveled in the MAG region when approving the plan. Also, the delay in freeway construction may impact the la- year maintenance plan for CO. The cities of Tucson and Phoenix are brought under fire for neglecting to implement plans for transit, including increasing the number of buses in their systems. Bauer reported that the ozone plan was submitted in July, 1987, with no commitment for Stage II Vapor Recovery. MAG has received a State Implementation Plan ( SIP) call to prepare a new ozone plan two years after EPA finalizes the proposed 1987 CO and ozone policy. To date, EPA has not gone final with the ozone policy. The current status of the policy is unknown. According to Bauer, the most difficult problem for MAG to work with is the particulate problem. A 34.4 percent reduction in PM- 10 emissions is needed by 1992 in order to attain the particulate standard. MAG's future activities include working with Maricopa County on its Trip Reduction Ordinance ( TRO), the Brown Cloud Study, and updating the MAG Freeway - 5 - Plan. In closing, Bauer informed Committee members that the federal government is now considering a requirement that California's new car emissions standards be applied to the entire country. These standards would be beneficial to the carbon monoxide and ozone problem in Maricopa County. Weights and Measures In revi ewi ng the fi rst few weeks of the oxygenated fuel s program Di ck Wolfe, Deputy Director of Weights and Measures, said state officials should have encouraged the industry to make an earlier transition to the new fuels. The Department reported 48 stop sale orders and 32 removal orders so far in the program. Despite these problems, Wolfe said that compliance is high. He noted that the majors have made smoother transitions and committed fewer violations than their independent competitors. Wolfe provided Committee members with a copy of Weights and Measures' Guidelines for Use and Sale of Motor Fuels and Petroleum Products. 6 Arizona Petroleum Resources Group Charles T. Stevens, · representing the Arizona Petroleum Resources Group, a lobby comprised of the major oil companies marketing in Arizona, praised what he called " a successful program." Stevens said that only a few start- up problems were encountered in the initial weeks of the program. He explained that some companies are blending the oxygenate with the fuel in California and shipping it here while others are shipping the oxygenate and the neat gas to Arizona to be either splash- blended or in- line blended here. The major oil companies did not offer any suggestions for improving the legislation. 6 See appendix F. - 6 - I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Atlantic Richfield Company ( ARCO) Jim White, Manager of ARCO's Environmental Legislation and Regulation division, spoke on his company's experience with the oxygenated fuels program thus far. ARCO had received no fuel- related complaints during the two weeks preceding the meeting of the Air Quality Compliance Advisory Committee and reported no serious fuel- related problems to date. White said that ARCO remains concerned over the negative press that is given to ethanol; he added that there seems to be a misperception that one cannot switch from one oxygenate to another. Pima Association of Governments ( PAG) Hank Eyrich, Physical Planning Manag'er for PAG, gave an update on PAG's air quality compliance programs. 7 Eyrich said that the most effective strategies have been the expansion and strengthening of the VEl program and the implementation of a travel reduction ordinance ( TRO). Pima County is marginal in ozone and particulate pollution. Eyrich noted that PM- 10 is very difficult to model. Pima County Marian Slavin, Travel Reduction Program Manager for Pima County, discussed the Pima County TRO. 8 The DEQ provides about $ 250,000 in funds to the TRO. The County reports that 120 major employers are involved with 90,000 employees at 154 sites. According to Slavin, 23 plans have been approved by the Travel Reduction Program Task Force and have been sent for review by the lead agency. Tucson Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce According to Dan Cavanagh, Group Vice President of the Tucson Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce, some complaints were lodged regarding the scope of the 7 See appendix G. 8 See appendix H. - 7 - Travel Reduction Program; however, he added that many businesses with under 100 employees participated voluntarily. Maricopa County Harvel Alishouse, Air Quality Advisor to the Maricopa County Department of Publ ic Health, introduced the Maricopa County TRO program. According to Alishouse, 52.5 million miles are traveled daily in the Valley. He said that the plans of major employees are the first to be approved. Alishouse introduced Suzanne Pfi ster of the Reg iona1 Pub1i c Transportat ion Authori ty, the subcontractor of the program, to outline the details of the TRO. Regional Publ ic Transportation Authority · ( RPTAl Suzanne Pfister, Manager of Community Affairs, presented an update on the TRO and the Clean Air Campaign. 9 RPTA's function is to provide technical and administrative support to the County for its TRO program. Pfister said that about 180,00 employees are represented in the program now. For every dollar spent from the Air Quality fund, seven dollars were donated. One hundred and forty- two thousand people took advantage of the free bus day October 18, 1989; average ridership is 93,000 per day. The free bus day cost about 550,000 and was funded by part of a grant from DEQ. The RPTA noted a 37 percent increase in participation in the Clean Air Campaign this year, as well as a 97 percent awareness rate. Regarding the TRO, Pfister said that all businesses with 500 or more employees have completed the survey process. One hundred and fifty employers with 200- 400 employees are currently being surveyed. Regional Travel Reduction Task Force Lonnie Hurst, Chairman of the Task Force, discussed the industries' 9 See appendix T. - 8 - I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I' I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I perception of the TRO program. Hurst reported a varied response from the industries. While large employers have been responsive, many of the smaller employers have been reluctant. Hurst said that the Task Force's major goal is to get smaller employers to work together more. - 9 - I I 38th LEGISLATURE etlan,•• or addition. in t. xt ar. indicated by CAPITALS; Ch. 365 1987. 1420 F.

Another observation is that we receive complaints about unprofessional discourteous behavior on the part of Hamilton Test Systems' personnel. Again, these can be grouped into a minimum of two categories of those who pass or fail the test. Most of the complaints are associated with those who fail the test. A summary of this activity is listed below: Our records indicate that we receive approximately one complaint per day on the average. However, many of these complaints are associated with people who fail the emissions test for various reasons and believe that the failure was an incorrect decision. We often determine that the fail decision was accurate and after obtaining additional information on the subject, explain this to the caller. 600 North 40th Street ROSE MOFFORD, GOVERNOR RANDOLPH WOOD, DlRECfOR I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Ken Heaton November 27, 1989 Page 2 This information is tabulated by the clerical staff that is assigned these duties, however, all personnel ( at times) answer the phones.

That Bill required the Department to report annually to the Legislature on seven issues related to urban air pollution. This is the second installment on these reports, providing an update over those submitted last year and an overview of our current state of knowledge for the respective topics, as summarized below. Wherever possible, we have provided a description of our plans for future research, where appropriate.

S. § 49- 553. A. 1 2005 North Central Avenue Hull uncertainties exist about the proper loaded test procedure for pass/ fail standards; NOx Feasibility: The report reviews relevant testing programs in other states, discusses the status of Federal new car standards for NOx, and makes recommendations for future state policy. Consistent with last year's reports, this one documents several impediments to the implementation of an annual tailpipe test for NOx: This report was prepared under contract with Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. The consultant has reviewed the " benefits, test methods and feasibility" of requiring emissions testing for diesel powered vehicles in general and the options for testing gasoline and diesel powered vehicles for nitrogen oxide ( NOx) emissions. NOx emissions are of concern as they contribute to ozone formation. Air Quality Reports 1. October 2, 1989 RE: Dear Representative Hull: The Honorable Jane Dee Speaker of the House 1700 West Washington Phoenix, Arizona 85007 ROSE MOFFORD, GOVERNOR RANDOLPH WOOD. DIRECTOR I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Central Palm Plaza Building 2. 3. 4. The repair industry is relatively uninformed about the causes of high NOx emissions and types of appropriate repairs, requiring considerable training; Accurate diagnoses and repair would require each vehicle repair facility to invest over $ 10,000 in a dynamometer and other equipment. Expansion of I & M Area: A. R. S. § 49- 553. A. 2 This report provides an assessment of the expected benefits of expanding the Vehicle Emissions Inspection Program boundaries, based on traffic surveys conducted last winter by ADEQ and ADOT. The report concludes that expanding test boundaries to contiguous areas would produce immeasurably small cuts in carbon monoxide and ozone pollution. I & M Effectiveness: A. R. S. § 49- 553. A. 3 This report, prepared by Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. under contract, provides an in- depth analysis of the benefits of the Vehicle Emission Inspections program. As part of the analysis, EEA examined the benefits of the new loaded mode test, and the implications of the discovery that several models and makes fail this test in disproportionate numbers. Nine of the twelve failing vehicle families have already been SUbject to an EPA recall for failure of emissions control systems. The report concludes that these high failure rates show that these vehicles were not repaired properly. Because Arizona's " tailpipe" test identifies these vehicles, the loaded test is effective in ide~ tifying high polluters. Air Quality Effects of the Arizona oxygenated Fuels Program and Reid Vapor Pressure: A. R. S. § 49- 553. A. 4 This report discusses the current status of the new ADEQ Vehicle Emissions Research Program and explains the research design in use for assessing the impact of oxygenated fuels on automobile emissions. Background information on the issue of reducing gasoline volatility or RVP standards as air quality strategy is also provided. 2 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 5. 6. 7. Cost Benefit: A. R. S. § 49- 553. A. 5 The report submitted to the Legislature last year determined that cost- benefit analysis would be very expensive to perform and would not yield results useful to policy makers. The Department, in its presentation to the Air Quality Compliance Committee, suggested that cost- effectiveness analysis would be a less expensive and more beneficial approach to the question posed by the Legislature. This suggestion was well received, and the Department proceeded with a cost- effectiveness study. Regretfully, we have been unable to complete this report in time for this submittal. A draft report containing cost effectiveness analysis for the vehicle emissions program, oxygenated fuels, voluntary no- drive days, and trip reduction programs will be completed by October 1, 1989. A final report including cost effectiveness analysis for all carbon monoxide reduction programs contained in A. R. S., Title 49, Chapter 3 will be completed by December, 1989. This study is being prepared under a contract with the U of A Center for Business and Economic Research. Causes of Violations at Monitors: A. R. S. § 49- 553. A. 6 This report provides an overview of Arizona Air Quality Monitoring System and its relationship to the EPA prescribed modeling. The relationship of local traffic patterns to carbon monoxide violations is explained, and anticipated ADEQ analysis of violation patterns is discussed. Consistent with last year I s study, this report documents that high carbon monoxide levels represent a regional air quality problem. Furthermore, no installation of new traffic flow improvement monitors would result in lower number of violations. The 1990 report may be a slightly expanded discussion or may need to address new issues raised by the legislature. Toxic Emissions Analysis: A. R. S. § 49- 553. B This report is a comprehensive review of current research on vehicular toxic emissions conducted throughout the country. Initial conversations with EPA and engineering consultants suggest that this type of research is in its infancy at the national level and may be difficult to conduct at the new ADEQ Emissions Research Lab. This report also provides recommendations for conducting the research at the DEQ Vehicle Emissions Research facility. 3 The report includes research showing that the use of oxygenated fuel can reduce tailpipe emissions of benzene, a known cancer causing compound. At the same time, the use of these fuels will likely increase tailpipe emissions of aldehydes, another carcinogen. We expect to work closely with the Legislature and the Air Quality Compliance Advisory Committee to ensure that our research will provide the information you need for future policy decisions. We would be pleased to have the comments or suggestions for future reports, or to brief you on these issues.

An increas ing popu lat ion ( both human and vehicle) and corrcs pond lng increases in various environmental pollutants has prompted the State of Arizona to enact legislation establishing controls and mandating research aimed at abatement. HE 2115 and SB 1360 mandated an alternative- fuels fleet study to be performed by the Arizona De9artment of Transportation ( ADOT), and HB 2206 mandated a vehicle emissions study of a representative portion of the ADOT fleet to be performed by the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality ( ADEQ). By Frank W. Cox October 24, 1989 The ADOT vehicle fleet was put into service in October of 1987 using unleaded gasoline to gather baseline performance and I& M emission data. In January of 1988 the use of the baseline gasoline was discontinued and opera tion on the var ious al ternat ive fuels began. In February of 1989, after thirteen months of operation on the alternative fuels, the ADEQ Emiss ions Research Laboratory ( ERL) began tes ting selected ADOT fleet vehicles to determine' the effect, if any, of the alternative fuels on evaporative and exhaust emissions as compared to these emissions generated by the use of unleaded gasoline. ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY This report contains the summarized data obtained from the ERL testing and discussions of this data and the test methods. The tes t vehicle fleet is listed in Table 1. The only vehicle type included in the ADOT fleet which was not tested was the 1984 Chevrolet 510 pickup. This vehicle type was omitted from the test fleet because of its s imilarity to the 1983 Chevrolet S10 pickup. In order to directly compare fuel effects, vehicles 1 thru 5 were tested wi th unleaded gasoline and two discreet oxygenated fuels, one containing methyl tertiarybutyl ether ( MTBE) and the other containing ethanol ( EtOH) . Vehicle 6 was a gasoline/ CNG ( compressed na tural gas) dualfueled vehicle and was tested only with these two fuels ( no oxygenated fuel subs t i tutcd for the gasoline). Vehicle 7 had been converted to liquid petroleum gas ( LPG), was fuel dedicated, and could not be tested with other fuels. The remaining vehicle ( 8) was tested with unleaded gasoline and wi th a third oxygenated fuel containing methanol ( MeOH). Vehic les 6, 7, and 8 were, with respect to emiss ion control sys tern and to engine size and configuration, similar to vehicles 5,4, and J, respectively. 600 North 40th Street ROSE ~' OFFORn.

Gasoline/ 5% MeOH/ 5% TBA Fuel samples were taken from the storage tanks at the ADOT fueling depots. The criterion for acceptance for testing was that the RVPs of the liquid fuels be similar. Fuels, 1,2, and 3 were judged to be acceptable, but the. vapor pressure of the " Oxinol" blend was too low. The entire supplies of fuels 1,2, and 3 were taken as single batches of the individual fuels directly from the ADOT storage tanks into 55gallon drums and immediately sealed. The storage tanks from which the tes t fuels were taken were the same as those from which the original samples were obtained. The " Oxinol" test fuel was acquired after the ADOT took delivery of a new batch. The vapor pressure of this fuel was within the desired range. Upon delivery, each vehicle fuel tank was removed and a drain line and thermocouple were installed. The drain line was extended to the lowest point of the tank and the thermocouple to the midpoint between the tank bottom and the fuel surface at the 40% nominal fuel tank volume level. Each tank was then pressurized to 3 psi air to ensure vapor tightness and reinstalled on the vehicle. Each vehicle was checked for engine vacuum leaks and faulty spark plugs and spark plug wires. These were the only maintenance items replaced when found to be faulty. Engine operatinq parameters were also checked and, excepting the LPG and CNG vehicles, set to factory specifications. Vehicle preparation was completed with checks of the exhaust system and installed fuel tank for leaks. This was accomplished with the instrument bench hydrocarbon analyzer by attaching a 3- port valve and sniff line between the sample inlet and the analyzer. I · I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I At the end of testing, the thermocouple was removed from the fuel tank and the fittings installed for the thermocouple and drain line were capped. With three exceptions, to be discussed below, the Federal Test Procedure ( FTP) was used for all tests. The details of the procedure are given in the Code of Federal Regulations ( CFR) Title 40, Part 86, Subpart B. This reference also gives the details of the required equipment, calibrations, and conditions. One departure from the FTP concerned the ambient test temperature limits. The FTP requires that the temperature to which the vehicle and tes t equipmen t are exposed be main tained wi thin the 1 imi ts, 68 ° F to 86° F. Since the available test fuels were winter grade ( vapor pressures at the lower end of volatility class D), the decision was made tc test at lower than the specified ambient temperature range~ An ambien t temperature range of 51 ° F to. 6.9 ° F was chosen ( a - 17 ° F offset from the FTP) because 1. it was believed to be the lowest feas ible range at which the facility could be maintained, 2. this range more nearly simulates winter temperatures in Maricopa county, and 3. the FTP specified temperatures would result in unrealistic canister loading during the pretest soak period. The diurnal ( or heat build) evaporative ( SHED) test is intended to measure evaporative losses during a simulated diurnal ( daily) temperature rise. Testing at lower ambient temperatures required that the temperature range for the fuel heat build also be lowered. Accordingly, this range was lowered 17° F from the FTP to 43° F- 67° F. The FTP heat build ramp was maintained. Preceding the 12- 36 hour soak period prior to testing, the FTP stipulates that the fuel tank be drained, the vehicle refueled to the required volume, and then driven on the dynomometer according to the Urban Dynomometer Driving Schedule ( UDDS) and at the vehicle test weight and horsepower. The UDDS is required within one hour of refueling. The FTP allows up to three additional preconditioning driving cycles, each preceded by a one hour soak period. Since each ADOT test fuel was significantly different from the others, and to minimize memory effects, a three- driving- cycle schedule was adopted for preconditioning when the test fuel was different from the preceding test. For back- to- back tests with the same fuel, the single preconditioning driving cycle was used. The three- driving- cycle schedule was: 1. drain and refuel 2. UDDS driving cycle within one hour of refueling 3. ten minute soak 4. UDDS driving cycle S. one hour soak 6. drain and refuel 7. UDDS driving cycle. - 3- The soak period between the first and second driving cycles was reduced to ten minutes to conserve time and the extra refueling was included as an added measure to minimize memory effects of the previous fuel. The fuel sequence was random beginning or ending the test series with no particular fuel. For the first test, however, each vehicle was preconditioned using the three- driving- cycle schedule. At leas t two tes ts were performed wi th each vehicle / fuel couple. A third test was performed when agreement between the duplicate tests was judged to be inadequa te or when FTP limits were exceeded to a po in t considered to be capable of producing significant effects on test data. Results and Discussions The resul ts of the emiss ions tes t program are presen ted in Table 2. Except ing the SHED emiss ions for vehicle B545 in the eNG mode, each emission value is the arithmetic average of at least duplicate tests, and in some cases, triplicate tests. The number of vehicles was small and little effort was exerted to verify mechanical condition or emission control functionality. Therefore, no statistical evaluation has been performed to determine the significance of data magnitude or relativity. This discussion is based upon a general interpretation of the data and the resulting conclusions reflect the opinion of the author. Evaporative emissions are primarily effected by 1. test temperature ( and temperature ramp), 2. fuel composition and volatility, 3. the type and condition of the fuel handling system, and 4. the configuration and condition of the evaporative emission controls. Since both ambient and heat build tempera tures were lowered by 17 0 F from the FTP, the SHED data can only be internally compared. The magnitude of the evaporative emissions is significant only for comparison of the various fuels with a single vehicle. Relative data can, however, be compared across the vehicle/ fuel matrix. The fuel vapor pressures given previously in this report would lead to a tentative conclusion that the evaporative emissions from the gasoline should be lower than from the al terna tive liquid fuels. The da ta, however, do not support this conclusion. At face value, the data indicate that essentially equivalent vapors are emitted from the MTBE fuel as compared to gasoline and lower levels are emitted from the EtOH fuel. A number of parameters which influence evaporative emissions must be considered. First, RVP is a measure of volatility at 100 0 F and the rate of vapor pressure change as a function of temperature is not known for the test fuels. In add it ion, the his tory and condition of the control canisters is not known, and the average replicate variation of all vehicle/ fuel couples was about 20%, a variability consistent with literature values. These uncertainties leave little doubt that no conclusion can be drawn with respect to the effect of fuel composition upon evaporative emissions. - 4- I I I I' I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I The repeatability of the exhaust measurements was much better than that for evaporative emissions. The average replicate variations for all vehicle/ fuel couples were about 8.5% for hydrocarbons, 7.0% for ni trogen oxides, and 12.5% for carbon monoxide. Actual fuel vapor pressure and vapor control canister condition cannot be ignored as exhaust emission variables, but their effects should be less prominent with respect to exhaust emissions as compared to evaporative emissions. For the group of five vehicles tested with gasoline, MTBE, and EtOH fuels: the emission trends for the oxygenated fuels relative to gasoline are: 1. hydrocarbons - decreases for both MTBE and EtOH, 2. nitrogen oxides - no apparent effect for either oxygena ted fuel, and 3. carbon monoxide - decreases for both MTBE and EtOH. These general trends are also cons is ten t with the gasoline/" Ox inol" test results. The oxygenated fuels produced no positive deviations for hydrocarbon emissions and the two deviations shown for NO emissions are very close to the average variation for replicate tests. x One emiss ion anomaly shown in Table 2 requires discuss ion. Vehicle B729 with MTBE shows a 29.4% increase for CO as compared to gasoline. This vehicle was exceptionally hard to start and required triplicate tests with MTBE. The CO levels produced by the independent tests were 5.1, 3.0, and 5.2 grams/ mile. Long cold starts for the first and third tests produced high phase 1 emissions, but this did not account for the difference between 3 and 5 grams / mile. Further analys is of the raw data revealed consistently high CO emissions in phase 3 ( the hot start) of the tests with MTBE as compared to either gasoline or the EtOH fuel. The only conclusion supported by the data is that this vehicle, under the test conditions and in its operating condition at the time, did produce higher CO emiss ions with MTBE fuel than with gasol ine. The author cannot offer a reasonable explanation for this anomaly. Excepting the vehicle/ fuel anomaly discussed in the preceding paragraph, the CO emissions with the oxygenated fuels are substantially lower than those produced with gasoline. The average decreases ( percent change with respect to gasoline) for both MTBE and EtOH fuels are larger than the corresponding average duplication variations. Very little can be said about the single vehicle ( BC32) tested wi th gasoline and an " Oxinol" type oxygenated blend other than the exhaust emiss ion changes for the oxygenated fuel relative to gasoline agree with the changes shown for the 5- vehicle X 3- fuel matrix discussed above. Extreme caution must be practiced when comparing test results from two vehicles. The exhaust emissions from the propane fueled vehicle (£ 3745), however, are impressively low when compared to the emissions from a similar vehicle ( B729) operating on the liquid fuels. - 5- The dual- fueled gasoline/ CNG vehicle ( 3545) emiss ions are not representative. Test results prompted an " after- the- fact" more detailed inspection of the vehicle. Apparently, a faulty PCV valve had caused engine oil to be drawn into the intake system. 80th the intake air filter and the evaporative control canister were saturated with engine oil. Comparing emissions from this vehicle, again with reservations, to those from a similar vehicle ( 8511) leads to the conclusion that the dual- fueled vehicle was operating fuel rich with gasoline and exceptionally fuel rich with CNG. The significance of the vehicle 8545 data lies in their value for demonstrating the high evaporative emissions associated with an inoperative control canister and the change in exhaust emissions associated with fuel rich operation ( exhaust NO is lowered, but HC and CO emiss ions increase: at some point, to in~ olerable levels). It is well known that the composition of exhaust hydrocarbon emissions. is similar to the fuel hydrocarbon composition. The methane fractions of vehicle 8545 exhaust hydrocarbon emissions were calculated and found to average 7.9% with gasoline and 71.3% when the vehicle was fueled by CNG. The large increase in the methane portion of the hydrocarbon emissions is indicative of a decrease in reactivity with respect to atmospheric smog formation. Table 2 also con tains volumetric fuel economy ( FE) values. Since the UDDS involves very little steady state operation at cruise speeds, the FE magnitude is not directly relatable to user service. The values in the table should, however, approximate the fuel economy of the vehicles when opera ted in popula ted areas. The volumetric FE gains shown for MT8E ( 8938) and for MTBE and EtOH ( 8511) resulted from two ( of twelve) anomalous exhaust C~ levels. CO2 was low for one of the duplicate tests of 8938 with MTBE fuel and high for one of the duplicate tests of 8511 wi th gasoline. The volumetric energy con tent of the oxygenated fuels is slightly less than that of gasoline and a small corresponding decrease in volumetric fuel economy should be expected. The 2.2% average loss for the oxygenated fuels ( disregarding the values discussed above) is reasonable. The volumetric fuel economies for the vehicles operating on gaseous fuels ( CNG and LPG) are given in gasoline equivalen ts based upon the energy consumed. The energy charge density within the engine cannot be main tained with carbureted gaseous fuels as compared to liquid fuels ( there is a volumetric efficiency loss); therefore, a fuel economy loss is inevitable. The fuel economy based upon energy content is given in Table 3 in terms of 8TU consumption per mile traveled. These data show that there is little, if any, difference in operating efficiency associated with the use of any of the liquid fuels. Disregarding the three values discussed earlier in conjunction with volumetric fuel economy, the average change in fuel- energy economy was + 0.4% when the oxygenated fu~ ls were used. - 6- I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I .
