Description

In order to implement Section 309 of the Regional Haze Rule, it is necessary for the Western Regional Air Partnership (WRAP) to project emissions to 2018, as well as some intermediate years, for Western states. The WRAP Emissions Forum is seeking information regarding emission reduction requirements and control costs and efficiencies to enable the WRAP to project future emissions from stationary and area sources. Specifically, the Emissions Forum will be projecting NOx and PM-10 for point sources that emit at least 100 tons per year as well as NOx, SO2 and PM-10 from smaller point sources and from area sources. This will be accomplished in two separate 2018 scenarios, a Base Case and a Controlled case. The Base Case projection will include known or likely emission reduction requirements that will be implemented for point sources, while the Controlled Case will include potential additional control requirements for existing sources. Information from the contractor will become the input data for the Integrated Assessment model, which will then project emissions for future years. Contractor deliverables must be in a format consistent with input requirements of the Integrated Assessment System (IAS). Interested parties can download the RFP and review background documents by accessing the WRAP web page at www.wrapair.org.
