B3b. Exhaust Emissions (Hauling Trucks) <br />Emissions of carbon dioxide from solid waste transportation are calculated using the following equation: <br />-1-1-1-1 <br />Y = (P)*(d)*(Ca)*(M)*(E)*(C)*(C) <br />AA12 <br />Y = annual emissions of carbon dioxide from solid waste transportation, tons/yr. <br />A <br />P = annual waste production for disposal treatment, tons/yr (see B3a. Fugitive Emissions). <br />A <br />d = solid waste density, 0.0365 tons/cuyd (California Integrated Waste Management Board). <br />Ca = truck load capacity, 20 cuyd/trip. <br />M = average trip mileage, 31.83 miles/trip. <br />E = emission factor for hauling trucks, 1,637.871 gr/mile (EMFAC 2007 output file). <br />C = conversion factor from gr to lbs, 453.59 gr/lbs. <br />1 <br />C = conversion factor from lbs to tons, 2,000 lbs/ton. <br />2 <br />d, tons/cuydCa, cuyd/tripM, miles/trip *E, gr/mile ** <br />Unit TypeP, tons/yrC, gr/lbsC, lbs/tonsY, tons/yr <br />A12A <br />Residential3,545.25 <br />0.0365202.301,637.871453.592,00020.17 <br />0.00 <br />Food Store0.0365202.301,637.871453.592,0000 <br />Restaurant0.000.0365202.301,637.871453.592,0000 <br />Hospitals0.00 <br />0.0365202.301,637.871453.592,0000 <br />154.8 <br />Retail00.0365202.301,637.871453.592,0000.88 <br />Commercial0.000.0365202.301,637.871453.592,0000 <br />College/University0.00 <br />0.0365202.301,637.871453.592,0000 <br />0.00 <br />High school0.0365202.301,637.871453.592,0000 <br />0.0365202.301,637.871453.592,0000 <br />Elementary School0.00 <br />Office0.000.0365202.301,637.871453.592,0000 <br />Hotel/Motel0.000.0365202.301,637.871453.592,0000 <br />Warehouse0.0365202.301,637.871453.592,0000 <br />0.00 <br />Miscellaneous0.000.0365202.301,637.871453.592,0000 <br />Total, tons/yr21.05 <br />* M = average trip mileage based on the average round trip distance from the Landfill with jurisdiction over the site: California Integrated Waste Management Board (http://www.ciwmb.ca.g <br /> <br />** E = emission factor for hauling trucks based on the following EMFAC criteria: 2008 calendar year, all heavy-duty trucks, temperature of 43°F, <br />relative humidity of 74% (average between 63% and 84%, January AM and PM), and speed of 45 miles/hr. <br />B3c. Exhaust Emissions (Disposal Equipment) <br />Emissions of carbon dioxide from solid waste disposal are calculated using the following equation: <br />-1 <br />Y = (E)*(h)*(n)*(C) <br />A <br />Y = annual emissions of carbon dioxide from solid waste disposal, tons/yr. <br />A <br />E = emission factor for disposal equipment, lbs/hr (SCAQMD Off-Road Mobile Source Emission Factors, 2007). <br />h = operating hours per day, 2 hrs/day. <br />n = days per year, 365 days/yr. <br />C = conversion factor from lbs to tons, 2,000 lbs/ton. <br />E, lbs/hr *h, hrs/day **n, days/yrC, lbs/tons <br />Vehicle TypeY, tons/yr <br />A <br />Excavator119.6023652,0000.00 <br />Grader132.7023652,0000.00 <br />Off-Highway Tractor151.5023652,0000.00 <br />Off-Highway Truck260.1023652,0000.00 <br />Total, tons/yr0.00 <br />* E = emission factor for disposal equipment based on the composite emission factor for each vehicle type. <br />** h = operating hours per day (and vehicle fleet) are based on typical operating time (and vehicle fleet) necessary to dispose 5.11 tons of solid <br />waste per day. <br />Page 3 of 13 <br />B4.
