Overview Purpose of Enhanced Vapor Recovery (EVR) for Aboveground Storage Tanks (ASTs) • To seek additional emission reductions from gasoline marketing operations by increasing the stringency of standards and specifications • To improve the performance and reliability of vapor recovery equipment 5
Overview In 2000, the Board approved EVR regulations for underground gasoline storage tanks (USTs). A new rulemaking is required to implement EVR for aboveground gasoline storage tanks (ASTs). 6
Overview EVR for ASTs is necessary to: • Ensure maximum feasible emissions reductions are achieved • Improve quality, reliability and durability of AST vapor recovery systems • Provide consistency with the UST EVR program 7
Overview A S T Examples 1000 Gallon Single Wall AST 8 250 Gallon AST on Stand
Overview 4,000 Gallon Single Wall with Processor A S T Examples 9 2000 Gallon Protected Tank 12,000 Gallon Protected Tank
Overview Proposed AST EVR Performance Standards and Specifications • DraftCertification and Test Procedures are available on the ARB Vapor Recovery website, but will be revised pending further testing and monitoring data. 10
Overview Previous Inventory Efforts • Revisited inventory in response to industry concerns • Tank population inventory • Emission inventory 11
Overview Status of AST EVR • Conducting further studies on: • Tank population inventory • Emissions inventory • Controls • Cost 12
Overview Status of AST EVR • Focus of today’s workshop • Tank population inventory • Emissions inventory • AST proposed regulation and cost analysis will be discussed in future workshops 13

Tank Population Inventory Overview • Desired information • Our approach to acquire information • Pilot Survey & Summary • Survey timeline 16
Tank Population Inventory Desired Information • Size distribution • Location • Control level • Type of tank 17
Tank Population Inventory Approach to Acquire Information • Districts • Water Board • Board of Equalization • Energy Commission • AST Manufacturers • Fuel Carriers 18
Tank Population Inventory Approach to Acquire Information • Identify fuel carriers • 473 carriers identified by CARB • each carrier was contacted • Identify gasoline carriers to AST • 188 carriers deliver gasoline to AST 19
Tank Population Inventory Pilot Survey • With California Independent Oil Marketers Association (CIOMA) • Develop pilot survey • Randomly select carriers • 32 carriers received pilot survey 20
Tank Population Inventory Pilot Survey Summary • 32 companies received survey • 15 companies returned survey • 8 companies returned survey with tank information • 466 tanks identified 21

Emission Inventory What are we going to do with the tank population information? • Build a population picture • Use picture to develop emission inventory 31
Emissions Inventory • AST Emission Factor Approach • Determine AST emission factors using the U.S. EPA Tanks Emissions Estimation Program (AP-42) • Suggested by industry 33
Emissions Inventory • U.S. EPA Tanks Emissions Estimation Program (AP-42) • Emission estimating equations were developed by the American Petroleum Institute (API) • Estimates emissions from organic liquid storage tanks • http://www.epa.gov/ttn/chief/ap42/ index.html 34
Emissions Inventory • U.S. EPA Tanks Emissions Estimation Program (AP-42) • Designed for single-wall tank application • Can be used for protected tank application • Requires fuel surface temperature measurements 35
Emissions Inventory • AP-42 Data Collection • In August 2004, ARB installed monitoring equipment on 5 ASTs • Parameters measured include: • fuel surface temperature, • ullage pressure and temperature, • barometric pressure, and • ambient temperature. 36
Emissions Inventory • AST Monitoring status: • 5 ASTs monitored • 4 protected (500-8,000 gallon capacities, different manufacturers, different insulation characteristics) • 1 single-wall (250 gallon capacity, on stands, no vapor recovery, open vent) • Data collected from August through November 2004 • Preliminary data analyses in January 2005 37
Emissions Inventory(Preliminary Data from a Single-Wall Tank) 38
Emissions Inventory(Preliminary Data from a Protected Tank) 39
Emissions Inventory • Emission factor stakeholder review • Assemble Stakeholder Review Team • Summarize preliminary data and emission factors • Schedule meeting (early 2005) 40
