Stakeholder Webinar for the MARAMA BETA Inventory

Please join us for the Stakeholder Webinar for the MARAMA BETA Inventory on June 15, 2016 from 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM.

BACKGROUND

MARAMA has worked with states to develop an emissions inventory which will be used in State Implementation Plan modeling demonstrations.  This email is to announce the availability of the 2011 base and 2017 future year emissions inventories for review and comment.  These inventories are termed the “Beta” version.  The 2011 inventory is an update of the “Alpha2” inventory released in December 2015, and 2017 is a new future year.  Examples of updates include incorporation of:

• Growth factors based on AEO2015 used to forecast 2017 emissions
• New EGU projections using updated state input data and AEO2015 High Oil and Gas Resource – ERTAC EGU v2.5
• NOX reductions due to use of Low Sulfur Fuel in stationary combustion sources
• New MOVES runs using MOVES2014a to estimate on-road mobile source emissions

You are invited to attend this webinar on June 15, 2016 at 11:00 AM Eastern to provide you with background about the inventory and the procedure for submitting your comments.  In addition, shortly before the webinar, all registrants will be provided with a website link where they can access summaries and documentation of the inventory.
