Thursday, March 24, 2015 1:00 p.m., PDT (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California California's building code requires mechanical ventilation to manage indoor-generated pollutants in the state's airtight, energy efficient homes. Yet outdoor air also contains pollutants at levels that can be hazardous, including fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) and ozone. With the objective of informing new home designs and future versions of the building code, this study evaluated eight combinations of ventilation and air cleaning systems for pollutant removal and energy use.

They are designed to encourage travel behavior changes to promote health benefits. However, there is little evidence of whether or how these changes take place with complete street conversion.

Martin Burger, Ph.D. University of California, Davis Thursday, June 16, 2016 1:30 p.m., PDT (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California Agricultural soils are a major source of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) in California, contributing 53% of the State's total N2O emissions. Production of N2O in soil is mainly a microbial process involving transformation of various nitrogen (N) species, which can be affected by many soil variables governing soil microbial activities. It is possible, therefore, to minimize N2O emissions from soil through proper management practices that would shun soil conditions known or suspected to stimulate N2O emissions. As this seminar will demonstrate, this project examined effects of different N fertilizer types and placements, use of nitrification inhibitors (NIs), subsurface drip irrigation (SDI), and organic management on N2O emissions from crops of tomato, corn, and lettuce.

Thursday, August 25, 2016 1:30 p.m., PDT (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California Reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions requires knowledge of the sources and activities which emit GHGs. California's Central Valley has a number of agricultural and natural sources of GHGs in addition to urban, anthropogenic sources. This work investigates the seasonal variability of CH4 and N2O source apportionment from year-long measurements of GHGs, CO, and a suite of VOCs in Walnut Grove, about 23 miles south of downtown Sacramento, from summer 2012 through early fall 2013. We apply the statistical technique of positive matrix factorization (PMF) on the combined GHG - VOC data set over seven separate periods that are representative of broad seasonal patterns observed in the region. We also compare our results to inverse modeling estimates at WGC for the same time-period.

Tuesday, October 4, 2016 2:00 p.m., PDT (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California California has committed to an ambitious plan to reduce statewide greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 through Assembly Bill 32 (AB-32), which requires accurate accounting of emissions for effective mitigation planning and verification of future emission reductions. Atmospheric GHG measurements from networks of towers can be combined with existing knowledge of emissions in a statistical inverse model -- weighing existing knowledge with the new observations -- to more accurately quantify GHG emissions. This study quantifies major anthropogenic GHGs including fossil fuel CO2 (ffCO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions within California with a Bayesian inverse modeling framework, using atmospheric observations from an expanded GHG measurement network across California over multiple years.

Frank Mitloehner, Ph.D. University of California, Davis Thursday, December 1, 2016 1:30 p.m., PST (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California Dairy silage (the preserved dairy feed through fermentation) has been identified as a significant source of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), both of which are ozone precursors, and thus may contribute to the extreme ozone nonattainment of the San Joaquin Valley (SJV) where 80% of California's 1300 dairy farms are located. This project monitored VOCs and NOx emissions throughout different phases of silage management at dairies, evaluated the mitigation potential of several silage management practices on VOCs recommended by the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District (SJVAPCD), and developed and validated a new VOC model simulating silage emissions from California dairies.

Amy Myers Jaffe, M.S., University of California, Davis and Nathan Parker, Ph.D., Arizona State University Friday, December 2, 2016 10:00 a.m., PST (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California California will need high volumes of alternative low carbon fuels to be able to meet its climate change goals. In order to support these goals, this study investigated the technological and commercial feasibility of producing large quantities of renewable natural gas fuels for use in California. The study’s results indicate that there are substantial sources of RNG in California that are commercially competitive with existing fossil fuel-based transportation fuels because carbon externalities are taken into consideration in the California market through existing programs such as the Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) and the U.S. Renewable Fuels Standard (RFS). At current credit prices including California’s LCFS and the U.S. federal Renewable Identification Number (RIN) credits, up to 82 billion cubic feet per year (bcf/y) of RNG supply could be attractive for private investment at competitive rate of return in developing RNG sources from landfill, dairy, municipal solid waste and waste-water sites combined. We find that the LCFS credit of $120 per metric tonne of CO2, if taken alone, enables economically viable production of up to 14 bcf RNG transportation fuel over the study period, which begins in 2013 and extends into the 2020s, 6.3 bcf from landfill, 1.5 bcf from waste-water treatment, 1.75 bcf from municipal solid waste, and 4.3 bcf from dairy. If current carbon credit prices persist into the future for programs like the LCFS, a substantial portion of natural gas consumption in the transportation sector can be satisfied by RNG. The analysis also shows that increasing tipping fees for municipal solid waste can influence private investment in RNG. Finally, the study investigates the impact of California’s quality standards for RNG and distance to central distribution systems on the level of investment in certain kinds of RNG. These results support the implementation of the Low Carbon Fuel Standard, Short-lived Climate Pollutant Strategy, and incentive programs by providing insight into feasible methods to maximize the production of RNG via the most cost-effective pathways, thereby providing practical means to meet the State’s long term climate goals.

Frank Mitloehner, Ph.D. University of California, Davis Thursday, December 1, 2016 1:30 p.m., PST (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California Dairy silage (the preserved dairy feed through fermentation) has been identified as a significant source of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), both of which are ozone precursors, and thus may contribute to the extreme ozone nonattainment of the San Joaquin Valley (SJV) where 80% of California's 1300 dairy farms are located. This project monitored VOCs and NOx emissions throughout different phases of silage management at dairies, evaluated the mitigation potential of several silage management practices on VOCs recommended by the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District (SJVAPCD), and developed and validated a new VOC model simulating silage emissions from California dairies.

Monday, December 19, 2016 1:30 p.m., PST (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California Biofuels that can serve as a one-to-one replacement for gasoline or diesel, or achieve higher-level blends without modifications to existing fueling infrastructure and engines, are known as "drop-in fuels," and offer an opportunity to accelerate the deployment of low-carbon liquid fuels. In order to achieve California's climate and air quality goals, California will need high volumes of alternative fuels, such as drop-in fuels, that have low greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In order to support these goals, the objective of this project was to review the research related to drop-in fuel production, evaluate potential pathways from well-to-pump (excluding tailpipe combustion emissions) based on their expected costs and environmental performance, and model potential pathways to scaling up drop-in fuel production in the state.
