Annual Network Plan Requirements Headings : White Text 40 pt. Calibri Title 40 Part 58 of the Code of Federal Regulations (Specifically Section 58. 10) requires: the State, or where applicable local, agency shall adopt and submit to the Regional Administrator an annual monitoring network plan which shall provide for the establishment and maintenance of an air quality surveillance system that consists of a network of SLAMS monitoring stations including FRM, FEM, and ARM monitors that are part of SLAMS, NCore stations, STN stations, State speciation stations, SPM stations, and/or, in serious, severe and extreme ozone nonattainment areas, PAMS stations, and SPM monitoring stations. The plan shall include a statement of purposes for each monitor and evidence that siting and operation of each monitor meets the requirements of appendices A, C, D, and E of this part, where applicable. The annual monitoring network plan must be made available for public inspection for at least 30 days prior to submission to EPA. These plans are due to the EPA Regional Administrator no later than July 1 of the calendar year. Slide 2

Summary of Changes in the Next 18 -24 Months Headings : White Text 40 pt. Calibri Pollutant Network Proposed Changes Modifications to the Lead Network Lead samplers at the following monitoring stations are proposed for removal: Shelocta (Indiana County) Upper Strasburg (Franklin County) Near-Road NOx Site Installation Plan* Site Relocations DEP is required to install NOx in a Near-Road site in the following MSA’s Harrisburg Allentown Scranton Lancaster Tentative equipment configuration- NOx, CO, PM 2. 5, BC/Aethalometer, Meteorology and possibly traffic count Moshannon (Clearfield County) –Ozone York Downwind (York County) –Ozone *On May 5, 2016, the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed to remove the requirement for near-road NO 2 monitoring stations in Core Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs) having populations between 500, 000 and 1, 000 persons. Under current regulations, these monitors are due to be installed and operational by January 1, 2017. If these changes are finalized DEP will be dropping these items from our planned network modifications. Slide 10
Sulfur Dioxide Data Requirements Rule (DRR) Headings : White Text 40 pt. Calibri • The Department has identified to EPA the sources to be characterized under the DRR. • DEP will continue working with those sources to develop a characterization through the modeling, monitoring or emissions limit tracks. • Sources on the monitoring track will be identified in the annual network plan (due to EPA July 1, 2016) with possible site information for sites to be operational by January 1, 2017 • Sources on the emissions limit and modeling tracks will be contained in a separate document (also due to EPA July 1, 2016) that will include a description of the planned emissions limit or the modeling protocol for the source. The emissions limits must be memorialized in a federally enforceable document or finalized modeling analysis demonstrating no impact on the 1 -Hr SO 2 NAAQS from the source and must be submitted to EPA by January 13, 2017.
