I. Introduction
The Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission (SPC) is the designated Metropolitan Planning
Organization (MPO) for a 10-county region within Southwestern Pennsylvania. MPOs are
responsible for making transportation conformity determinations for both their short range
Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and their long range transportation plan. This report
documents the process used by SPC in the spring of 2016 for making the transportation-related
conformity determination for the 2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program for
Southwestern Pennsylvania and updates to the region’s 2040 Transportation Plan (2040 Plan –
Mapping the Future: The Southwestern PA Plan). The conformity determination is required by
the federal Clean Air Act (CAA). SPC’s conformity finding is based upon criteria and
procedures described in the federal Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Transportation
Conformity Rule (40 CFR Part 93). SPC’s conformity finding was conducted consistent with
procedures outlined in the EPA-approved Pennsylvania Conformity State Implementation Plan
(SIP), which has an effective date of June 29, 2009, and satisfies all applicable conformity
process requirements in the Transportation Conformity Rule for designated nonattainment and
maintenance areas under federal air quality standards for ozone (O3), particulate matter (PM10
and PM2.5), and carbon monoxide (CO).
On November 15, 1990, amendments to the federal Clean Air Act were enacted. The Clean Air
Act (as amended) specifies how the EPA designates air quality nonattainment areas and how it
defines the geographic boundaries of those areas. Nonattainment areas for three criteria
pollutants (ozone, carbon monoxide and fine particulate matter) are classified in accordance with
the severity of the area's air pollution problem. Assignment of an area to one of the
nonattainment classifications triggers various planning requirements which the area must comply
with in order to meet the standard. The requirements vary by pollutant and increase in number
and stringency with the severity of pollution.
The EPA promulgated regulations on November 23, 1993 (Transportation Conformity Rule)
regarding criteria and procedures for demonstrating and assuring conformity of transportation
plans, programs and projects with the Clean Air Act. The EPA has periodically revised and
amended the Transportation Conformity Rule. All conformity findings must be based on criteria
and procedures outlined in the Rule.
A regional conformity assessment and new conformity finding for the regional transportation
Plan and Program is required before MPO adoption, acceptance, approval, or support of a
regional Plan, TIP or amendments to those documents; or the approval, funding, or
implementation of transportation projects. Conformity findings must be approved by the MPO
before the regional Plan or TIP, or amendments to those documents are approved by the MPO or
accepted by United States Department of Transportation (USDOT). The Transportation
Conformity Rule cites a number of project types which may be excluded from the regional
conformity analysis. The “exempt” project types are listed in Appendix A.
The most recent conformity finding for the region’s fiscally constrained TIP and Plan was
approved by SPC on June 29, 2015 in conjunction with adoption of Mapping the Future: The
Air Quality Conformity Determination 2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program and 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan
Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission – July 2016

Southwestern PA Plan. The United States Department of Transportation, in consultation with
EPA concurred with SPC’s conformity finding on November 4, 2015.
SPC has developed a new Transportation Improvement Program (2017-2020 TIP). The TIP
includes newly identified regionally significant projects as well as scope and schedule
modifications to several currently programmed regionally significant projects. These changes to
the regionally significant projects to be programmed on the region’s 2017-2020 TIP and 2040
Plan triggered the need for a new finding of conformity. The new conformity finding was
needed prior to SPC’s adoption of the TIP, related 2040 Plan adjustments, and before any federal
action on programmed, regionally significant projects.
Travel simulation work and other relevant quantitative analysis for this demonstration of
conformity began on March 16, 2016 with the quarterly meeting of the Pennsylvania
Transportation – Air Quality Work Group. The planning assumptions used in this conformity
assessment are current as of that date. The major planning assumptions for this conformity
assessment are briefly summarized below. As appropriate, the planning assumptions used in the
analysis are further detailed in subsequent Sections of the report.
In accord with EPA guidance and Pennsylvania’s interagency consultation process, all
emission estimates were derived using EPA's MOVES 2014 emissions model running in
“inventory” mode.
Data for vehicle registrations and vehicle miles traveled (VMT) distribution is from 2015
Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) information. Data from 2012
was used in SPC’s spring 2015 conformity determination.
The current vehicle inspection/maintenance (I/M) programs for southwestern Pennsylvania
are reflected in the analysis. Information about the I/M programs is presented in
Section V.
The Pennsylvania Clean Vehicles (PCV) Program, adopted in 1998, incorporates the
California Low Emission Vehicle Program (CA LEV, as amended) by reference although
it allowed automakers to comply with the National Low Emission Vehicle (NLEV)
program as an alternative to this Pennsylvania program until model year (MY) 2006.
Beginning with MY 2008, “new” passenger cars and light-duty trucks with a gross
vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 8,500 pounds or less that are sold or leased and titled in
Pennsylvania must be certified by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) or be
certified for sale in all 50 states. For this program, a “new” vehicle is a qualified vehicle
with an odometer reading less than 7,500 miles. DEP and PennDOT worked with the
automobile manufacturers, dealers and other interested business partners and finalized
procedures for complying with these new requirements. DEP is focusing its outreach
with the manufacturers and dealers on what they can offer for sale and how to certify that
the vehicles are compliant. PennDOT’s role is to ensure paperwork procedures for title
and registrations include these certifications of compliance or that the vehicle owner
qualifies for an exemption to the requirements. In all cases, DEP will use information

obtained during PennDOT’s title and registration process to oversee and audit, as needed,
certain vehicle title transactions to determine compliance to the program. The impacts of
this program are modeled for all analysis years beyond 2008.
SPC’s Cycle 10 forecast of population, employment and households was developed in the
spring of 2015 and was adopted with the 2040 Plan on June 29, 2015. The Cycle 10
forecast replaced the Cycle 9a forecast which was adopted in 2012. An updated regional
forecast, the Cycle 10a forecast, is now available. It was developed to improve the
distribution of “Other” employment (forestry, logging, agriculture, oil and gas extraction,
mining, construction, wholesale trade, and farming). The Cycle 10a forecast was adopted
with the 2017-2020 TIP on June 27, 2016. The base year for the Cycle 10a forecast is
2015. The horizon year is 2040. The Cycle 10a forecast was used to generate trips for
the travel demand model for this conformity assessment. Information about SPC’s
modeling and forecasting process is presented in Section IV.
SPC’s travel demand model is configured for the TP+ modeling software package. The
travel model covers SPC’s entire 10-county planning region. All of the VMT and
emissions projections were developed from SPC’s travel model.
SPC’s 10-county travel model was validated to 2015 conditions with available data in the
spring of 2016 during the TIP update process. That model was used for this conformity
assessment. The model for the 2015 conformity assessment was validated to 2013
conditions. Section IV includes a discussion of the model validation process.
SPC’s travel demand model is sensitive to road and bridge tolls. Toll rates are coded on
highway network links to reflect tolls charged by the Pennsylvania Turnpike
Commission. Once toll rates are coded, the rates remain constant for all analysis years
(essentially assuming that tolls will increase at the same rate as inflation).
SPC's travel demand model includes a mode split component. Current transit operating
plans and service levels are incorporated into the future year networks and augmented
with facilities and service identified in the TIP and Plan. SPC's mode split model is
sensitive to transit fares. The current transit fare structure is built into the model. Fare
rates are held constant for all analysis years (essentially assuming that fares will increase
at the same rate as inflation). Transit person trips are summarized by trip purpose and
analysis year in Table 12.
Vehicle emission budgets are available to SPC for use in the conformity assessment for the
Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley 8-hour ozone nonattainment area. That area consists of seven
counties within SPC’s planning area (Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Fayette,
Washington, and Westmoreland). On April 22, 2004, the Pennsylvania Department of
Environmental Protection (DEP) submitted SIP revisions to EPA that contained emission
budgets for VOC and NOx developed with the MOBILE6.2 emissions model. EPA
approved the budgets for use in conformity assessments on December 10, 2004 (78 FR
71712). These emissions budgets were approved for demonstrating conformity under the
Air Quality Conformity Determination 2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program and 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan

1-hour ozone standard. The Transportation Conformity Rule requires that they are to be
used for conformity assessments under the 8-hour ozone standard until new emissions
budgets for the 8-hour ozone standard are approved by EPA for the Pittsburgh-Beaver
Valley nonattainment area. The approved 1-hour ozone emissions budgets for VOC and
NOx are used for the conformity demonstration in Section VII for the Pittsburgh-Beaver
Valley 8-hour ozone nonattainment area.
Vehicle emission budgets are now available to SPC for use in the conformity assessment
for the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley PM2.5 nonattainment area under the 1997 annual PM2.5
NAAQS and the 2006 daily PM2.5 NAAQS. That area consists of four complete counties
within SPC’s planning area (Beaver, Butler, Washington, and Westmoreland), part of
Allegheny County (not including the separate Liberty-Clairton nonattainment area), and
parts of Armstrong, Greene and Lawrence counties. EPA approved the PM2.5 and NOx
MVEBs for use in conformity assessments for the Pittsburgh Area in a final rule
published in Federal Register on October 2, 2015 (80 FR 59624).
Vehicle emission budgets for PM2.5 and its precursors have not been approved by EPA
for use in conformity assessments for the Allegheny County PM2.5 nonattainment area.
Through the interagency consultation process, values used for the conformity test for this
nonattainment area were developed from data contained in the SIP revision “State
Implementation Plan Revision: Maintenance Plan and Comprehensive Inventory
Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley Nonattainment Area 1997 and 2006 Fine Particulate Matter
National Ambient Air Quality Standards“ (DEP, December 2014). This maintenance
plan and emissions inventory contains the EPA-approved motor vehicle emission budgets
for the larger Pittsburgh Beaver Valley PM2.5 Nonattainment Area, as well as motor
vehicle emission inventories for individual counties. The conformity test values were
determined by calculating the percentage of total motor vehicle emissions attributable to
Allegheny County (excluding Liberty-Clairton) and applying that percentage to the safety
margins established for the larger nonattainment area. The portion of the safety margin
calculated in the previous step was added to the 2017 and 2025 inventory emissions for
Allegheny County (partial) to provide a base year emission total for comparison in the
conformity test for the Allegheny County PM2.5 Nonattainment Area.
The EPA approved an “insignificance finding” that PM2.5 nonattainment in the Liberty-
Clairton PM2.5 area was primarily the result of industrial stationary sources and motor
vehicles were not an important contributor to the nonattainment problem. That finding
was approved by EPA in a rulemaking published in the Federal Register on October 2,
2015 (80 FR 59615). With approval of this finding by EPA, no additional quantitative
analysis for transportation-related PM2.5 impacts is required for conformity purposes for
the Liberty-Clairton PM2.5 area. Interagency consultation and public review is still
required.
Three major, regionally significant projects were completed in the region since the last
conformity cycle in 2015 and are now included in the existing (2017 base year)
transportation network for this conformity assessment. Those three projects are:

(1) Allegheny County (Oakmont Borough and Harmar Township) – replacement of the
old 2-lane Hulton Bridge over the Allegheny River in with a new 4-lane bridge (MPMS
#57100); (2) Fayette County (South Union Township) – Route 21 section J10 widening
to 4-lanes between Thompson Crossroads and Route 119 (MPMS #72214); (3) Greene
County (Franklin Township) – Morrisville Corridor Phase 1 safety improvements and
widening to 4-lanes along SR 19 between High Street and SR 2026 (MPMS #30272).
Section II of this report presents an overview of pertinent provisions of the Clean Air Act and the
Transportation Conformity Rule. It also describes the areas of the region designated as
nonattainment under the 8-hour ozone national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS), the PM2.5
NAAQS, the carbon monoxide (CO) NAAQS, and the PM10 NAAQS. The 2017-2020 TIP and
the 2040 Plan are summarized in Section III. Section IV discusses SPC’s transportation
modeling process. The methods used to develop emissions estimates for this conformity
determination are highlighted in Section V. Section VI presents the travel simulations developed
for this conformity determination. Section VII highlights the conformity findings and
conclusions. The conformity determinations under the 8-hour ozone standard, the PM2.5 and
PM10 air quality standards, and the carbon monoxide standard are also made in Section VII. The
public review process is outlined in Section VIII. A series of appendices, described in the text,
appear at the end of this report.
The conformity findings and conclusions in this report are based on VMT, average speed, and
emissions for several analysis years: 2017 – the year used for “existing” (base year) conditions
and budget year for the PM2.5 air quality standards; 2020 – the TIP year and attainment year for
the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS; 2025 – interim year to satisfy the Transportation Conformity Rule
requirement that analysis years be not more than ten years apart, also a budget year for the PM2.5
air quality standards; 2035 – interim year to satisfy the Transportation Conformity Rule
requirement that analysis years be not more than ten years apart; and 2040 – the Long Range
Plan horizon year.

II. Regional Implications of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments and
Overview of Conformity Criteria
Criteria and procedures required for demonstrating conformity of transportation plans and
programs are specified in EPA's Transportation Conformity Rule. The applicable conformity
criteria and procedures are summarized below:
1) A determination should be made that the endorsed transportation plan and program
will be consistent with the emissions budget in the approved control strategy SIP or
redesignation request. Prior to EPA approval of emission budgets, a determination
should be made that the transportation plan and program are consistent with the most
recent estimates of mobile source emissions.
2) An assurance should be given that no goals, directives, recommendations or projects
identified in the transportation plan and program contradict in a negative manner any
specific requirements or commitments of the applicable SIP.
3) Transportation plans and programs should provide for the expeditious implementation
of transportation control measures in the applicable SIP.
4) Transportation plan and program conformity determinations will be based on the most
recent emissions estimates which in turn are to be based on the most recent population,
employment, travel and congestion estimates as determined by the MPO or other
authorized agency.
5) A determination should be made that the transportation plans and programs contribute
to reductions in emissions in nonattainment areas and that the transportation plans and
programs do not increase the frequency or severity of existing violations of the
national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS).
In accord with the federal Clean Air Act, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has
designated several nonattainment areas within Southwestern Pennsylvania for six separate
National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). The six air quality standards are: (1) the
1987 PM10 NAAQS (one designated area – five municipalities within Allegheny County – Map
1), (2) the 1971 carbon monoxide NAAQS (one designated area – City of Pittsburgh’s Central
Business District and certain other high traffic density areas in and near the City’s Oakland
neighborhood – Map 1), (3) the 2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS (one designated area, covering
seven of the ten counties within SPC’s planning area – Map 2), (4) the 1997 PM2.5 annual
NAAQS (three separate areas that, combined, cover five entire counties and parts of four other
counties within SPC’s planning area – Map 3), (5) the 2006 PM2.5 24-hour NAAQS (the same
three areas designated nonattainment for the PM2.5 annual standard – Map 3), and (6) the 2012
PM2.5 annual NAAQS (one designated area, covering all of Allegheny County – Map 3).
Transportation conformity must be addressed by SPC for each nonattainment and maintenance
area.

This report addresses conformity for all of the designated nonattainment areas and applicable air
quality standards.
Map 1 SPC July 2016
PM10
In accord with the federal Clean Air Act, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency designated
a moderate nonattainment area for particulate matter under the 1987 PM10 NAAQS within
Allegheny County (56 FR 11105), effective on May 14, 1991. That area includes the City of
Clairton and the Boroughs of Glassport, Liberty, Lincoln and Port Vue (Map 1). PM10
nonattainment in that area stemmed primarily from industrial sources in the area and not from
mobile sources. This nonattainment area was not required to have a PM10 transportation
conformity budget. Because the PM10 violations had been caused by industrial stationary
sources and motor vehicles were not an important contributor to the nonattainment problem, no
additional quantitative analysis for transportation-related PM10 impacts is required for
conformity purposes.
On January 6, 1994, the Allegheny County Health Department submitted a PM10 Attainment
Plan to EPA for review and approval. That was followed on July 12, 1995 with submittal of
contingency measures that would be enforced if the area failed to attain the PM10 standard. On
September 8, 1998, EPA’s final approval of those documents was announced in the Federal
Register (63 FR 47434) and EPA declared that the area had attained the PM10 standard. On
October 28, 2002, a request to redesignate the area as attainment for PM10 was submitted to EPA
Air Quality Conformity Determination 2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program and 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan
Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission – July 2016

by Allegheny County. EPA’s approval of the redesignation request, and the formal
redesignation of the area from nonattainment to attainment of the PM10 national ambient air
quality standards (NAAQS), was announced in the Federal Register on September 11, 2003 (68
FR 53515).
The 2017-2020 TIP and 2040 Plan will not worsen the PM10 emissions in that area, nor will they
interfere with the expeditious implementation of mitigation measures to control those emissions.
Four projects are identified on the 2017-2020 TIP and the 2040 Plan in those five municipalities.
They are: 1). Lovedale/Wylie Run Road – bridge rehabilitation/replacement over Sunfish Run
(SR 2010 – Lincoln Borough), $2,000,000 (MPMS#28118); 2). Boston Hollow Road – bridge
rehabilitation/replacement over Wylie Run (SR 48 – Lincoln Borough and Elizabeth Township),
$1,900,000 (MPMS# 28132). 3). PA 48 over Wylie Run – bridge replacement on SR 48 over
Wylie Run (SR 48 – Lincoln Borough and Elizabeth Township), $1,450,000 (MPMS#93784);
4). Boston Hollow Road – bridge replacement over Wylie Run (SR 48 – Lincoln Borough and
Elizabeth Township), $1,000,000 (MPMS# 78175).The total cost programmed on the 2017-2020
TIP for these four projects is $6,350,000.
Carbon Monoxide
While the region has not exceeded the 1971 carbon monoxide NAAQS since March 1986, the
City of Pittsburgh's central business district and high traffic density areas in and near the City’s
Oakland neighborhood were designated by EPA as an “unclassified” nonattainment area for
carbon monoxide (43 FR 40513), effective on September 12, 1978 (Map 1). In August 2001, the
Allegheny County Health Department (ACHD) submitted a redesignation request to DEP asking
that it be forwarded to EPA with a recommendation for approval. That redesignation request
was subsequently approved by EPA and announced in the Federal Register on November 12,
2002 (67 FR 68521). A limited carbon monoxide maintenance plan is part of that approved
redesignation for Allegheny County. That maintenance plan ensured maintenance of the CO
NAAQS until January 2013. On July 18, 2011 DEP, on behalf of ACHD, submitted as a SIP
revision a second 10-year CO maintenance plan. EPA approved the second 10-year limited
maintenance plan effective on May 27, 2014 (79 FR 17054). The maintenance demonstration
shows that the Pittsburgh area will continue to maintain the CO NAAQS during the second 10-
year maintenance period, which extends to 2022.
Under limited maintenance plans, EPA policy does not require a carbon monoxide emission
budget test for conformity determinations. Emission budgets in limited maintenance plan areas
are considered to be not constraining for the length of the initial maintenance period. Therefore,
conformity for carbon monoxide is demonstrated in the county.
Ozone
The 8-hour ozone nonattainment and maintenance area is:
Pittsburgh - Beaver Valley nonattainment area. This area includes seven counties within
SPC’s planning area (Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Fayette, Washington, and
Westmoreland).

Map 2 shows the boundary of this designated 8-hour ozone area.
Map 2 SPC July 2016
Ozone is formed through chemical reactions induced when sunlight reacts with volatile organic
compounds (VOCs, principally “hydrocarbons”), and nitrogen oxides (NOx). A major source of
VOCs and NOx is the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels. Transportation-related activities
are a major contributor of these pollutants. Since heat speeds the reactions, ozone levels are
typically highest during hot summer days. For ozone nonattainment areas, reductions in both
VOC and NOx are required in order to demonstrate conformity.
The Transportation Conformity Rule requires that the conformity determination for
transportation plans and programs be based on comparisons to established VOC and NOx motor
vehicle emissions budgets (MVEB), provided that the budgets are established in a control
strategies State Implementation Plan and that EPA has declared the motor vehicle emission
budgets to be adequate for transportation conformity purposes. The emissions budget establishes
a cap on emissions which cannot be exceeded by predicted highway and transit vehicle
emissions. The conformity analysis should demonstrate reduced VOC and NOx emissions in a
future year for the transportation plan or program when compared to the established emissions
budgets. The analysis must estimate total transportation-related emissions within the ozone
nonattainment area for certain future years, and may include the effects of any emission control
programs which are already adopted or committed to in the applicable State Implementation
Plan.

Motor vehicle emissions budgets for VOC and NOx were established in the Maintenance Plan
for the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley Ozone Area (Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley Area Ozone
Maintenance Plan and Request for Redesignation as Attainment for Ozone). This is the
Maintenance Plan and Attainment SIP approved for this area by EPA under the 1-hour ozone
standard. It will remain in effect until the state submits, and EPA approves, an attainment
demonstration and motor vehicle emissions budgets for the 8-hour standard. The budgets from
this SIP are based on analysis using EPA’s MOBILE6.2 emissions model. The budgets were
approved by EPA on December 10, 2004 for use in conformity assessments (69 FR 71712).
These budgets are, therefore, available to SPC for use in demonstrating 8-hour ozone
transportation conformity. The approved emissions budgets for the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley
Ozone Area are presented in Table 17 and are shown graphically in Figures 9 (VOC) and
10 (NOx) in Section VII.
Information needed for the 8-hour ozone conformity assessment is presented in Section V.
Results of the analysis, and the conformity determination for the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley
Ozone Area, are found in Section VII.
Greene, Indiana, and Lawrence counties are designated as air quality attainment areas under the
2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS. A transportation conformity assessment is not needed under the 8-
hour ozone NAAQS for those counties.
PM2.5
The EPA published the 1997 Annual PM2.5 NAAQS on July 18, 1997 (62 FR 38653). Three
nonattainment areas were designated in the SPC planning area under the 1997 Annual PM2.5
NAAQS (70 FR 944) effective April 5, 2005. These areas are:
Johnstown. This area includes all of Cambria County (which is outside of the SPC
planning area), plus five municipalities within Indiana County (West Wheatfield, Center,
and East Wheatfield townships, and Armagh and Homer City boroughs).
Liberty-Clairton. This area includes five municipalities within Allegheny County
(Glassport, Liberty, Lincoln, and Port Vue boroughs, and Clairton City).
Pittsburgh - Beaver Valley. This area includes all or part of eight counties within SPC’s
planning area as follows: Allegheny County (remainder not included in the Liberty-
Clairton area); Armstrong County (Plumcreek and Washington townships, and Elderton
Borough); Beaver County (entire county); Butler County (entire county); Greene County
(Monongahela Township); Lawrence County (portions of Taylor Township south of New
Castle City); Washington County (entire county); and Westmoreland County (entire
county).
The EPA published the 2006 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS on October 17, 2006 (71 FR 61144). Three
nonattainment areas were designated in the SPC planning area under the 2006 24-hour PM2.5
NAAQS effective December 14, 2009 (74 FR 58688). The boundaries of the three
nonattainment areas designated under the 2006 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS are identical to the three
nonattainment areas designated under the 1997 Annual PM2.5 NAAQS.

The remainder of the SPC planning area is designated as attainment areas under both the 1997
Annual and 2006 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS. The attainment area includes all of Fayette County
and the remainder of Armstrong, Greene, Indiana, and Lawrence counties.
Map 3 shows the boundaries of the three 1997/2006 PM2.5 nonattainment areas in southwestern
Pennsylvania. These three areas are designated nonattainment for both the 1997 Annual PM2.5
NAAQS and the 2006 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS.
Map 3 SPC July 2016
The Transportation Conformity Rule requires that the conformity determination for
transportation plans and programs be based on comparisons to approved emission budgets,
provided that the budgets are established in a control strategies State Implementation Plan and
that EPA has declared the motor vehicle emission budgets to be adequate for transportation
conformity purposes. The emission budgets establish caps on emissions which cannot be
exceeded by predicted highway and transit vehicle emissions. The conformity analysis should
demonstrate reduced emissions in a future year for the transportation plan or program when
compared to the approved emission budgets. The analysis must estimate total transportation-
related emissions within the nonattainment area for certain future years, and may include the
effects of any emission control programs which are already adopted or committed to in the
applicable SIP.
Motor vehicle emissions budgets for PM2.5 and NOx were approved by EPA under the 2006 24-
hour PM2.5 NAAQS and the 1997 annual PM2.5 NAAQS for the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley PM2.5
Area in a final rule published in the Federal Register on October 2, 2015 (80 FR 59624). These

MVEBs are based on analysis using EPA’s MOVES emissions model. These budgets are,
therefore, available to SPC for use in demonstrating transportation conformity for the Pittsburgh
Area under both the annual and the daily PM2.5 NAAQS. The approved MVEBs are expressed
as annual values in EPA’s approval, but they apply to both the annual and daily NAAQS.
Conformity assessments are to be based on the annual emissions. If conformity is demonstrated
for the annual NAAQS, it is also demonstrated for the daily NAAQS. The annual values for the
emissions budgets for the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley PM2.5 Area are presented in Table 14 and are
shown graphically in Figures 3 (PM2.5) and 4 (NOx) in Section VII.
Information needed for the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley PM2.5 Area conformity assessment is
presented in Section V. Results of the analysis, and the conformity determination for the
Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley PM2.5 Area, are found in Section VII.
Motor vehicle emission budgets for PM2.5 and NOx were approved by EPA under the 2006 24-
hour PM2.5 NAAQS and the 1997 annual PM2.5 NAAQS for the Indiana County portion of the
Johnstown PM2.5 nonattainment area in a final rule published in the Federal Register on July 16,
2015 (80 FR 42046). These MVEBs are based on analysis using EPA’s MOVES emissions
model. These budgets are, therefore, available to SPC for use in demonstrating transportation
conformity for the Indiana County portion of the Johnstown PM2.5 nonattainment area under both
the annual and the daily PM2.5 NAAQS. The approved MVEBs are expressed as annual values
in EPA’s approval, but they apply to both the annual and daily NAAQS. Conformity
assessments are to be based on the annual emissions. If conformity is demonstrated for the
annual NAAQS, it is also demonstrated for the daily NAAQS. The annual values for the
emissions budgets for the Indiana County portion of the Johnstown PM2.5 nonattainment area are
presented in Table 15 and shown graphically in Figures 5 (PM2.5) and 6 (NOx) in Section VII.
The Allegheny County Health Department submitted, on May 13, 2014, a supplement to its
Attainment Demonstration SIP for the Liberty-Clairton area under the 1997 annual PM2.5
NAAQS and the 2006 daily PM2.5 NAAQS requesting an “insignificance finding” from EPA that
nonattainment was primarily the result of industrial stationary sources and motor vehicles were
not an important contributor to the nonattainment problem. That finding was approved by EPA
in a rulemaking published in the Federal Register on October 2, 2015 (80 FR 59615) and
effective December 1, 2015. With approval of this finding by EPA, no additional quantitative
analysis for transportation-related PM2.5 impacts is required for conformity purposes.
Interagency consultation and public review would still be required.
The 2017-2020 TIP and 2040 Plan will not worsen the PM10 emissions in that area, nor will they
interfere with the expeditious implementation of mitigation measures to control those emissions.
The four projects identified on the 2017-2020 TIP and the 2040 Plan in the Liberty-Clairton
PM2.5 Area were identified above in the PM10 discussion.
The EPA published the 2012 annual PM2.5 NAAQS on January 15, 2013 (78 FR 3086), with an
effective date of March 18, 2013. One nonattainment area, covering all of Allegheny County,
was designated in the SPC planning area under the 2012 Annual PM2.5 NAAQS effective April
Air Quality Conformity Determination 2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program and 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan

14
15, 2015 (80 FR 2206 and 80 FR 18535). Map 3 shows the boundaries of those nonattainment
areas.
The other nine counties in the SPC planning area are designated as attainment areas under the
2012 Annual PM2.5 NAAQS.
MVEBs for PM2.5 and its precursors under the 2012 annual PM2.5 NAAQS are not available for
use in conformity assessments for the Allegheny County nonattainment area. Following
interagency consultation, the conformity test for this PM2.5 nonattainment area under the 2012
annual PM2.5 NAAQS is a comparison of emissions to the approved MVEBs for the 1997/2006
PM2.5 NAAQS based on 2011 emissions inventory values (including allocated safety margin) for
the Allegheny County portion of the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley nonattainment area. The annual
values for the emissions “budgets” for the Allegheny County PM2.5 Area under the are 2012
annual PM2.5 NAAQS are presented in Table 16 and are shown graphically in Figures 7 (PM2.5)
and 8 (NOx) in Section VII.
PM2.5 emissions (fine particulates) are emitted directly by motor vehicles as a result of the fuel
combustion process (tailpipe emissions) and as a result of brake and tire wear. PM2.5 emissions
are contained in re-entrained road dust and transportation construction dust. PM2.5 emissions are
also formed through reactions in the atmosphere among several precursor emissions including
VOC, NOx, ammonia (NH3) and sulfates (SOx). Under EPA conformity regulations:
Direct PM2.5 tailpipe, brake wear, and tire wear emissions must be analyzed.
Re-entrained road dust is included only if EPA or the Pennsylvania Department of
Environmental Protection determines that it is a significant contributor to PM2.5 in the
nonattainment area, or is named in a PM2.5 SIP and a motor vehicle emissions budget is
established for this item.
Transportation construction dust is encompassed in regional transportation conformity if it
is named in a PM2.5 SIP and a motor vehicle emissions budget is established for this item.
NOx must be analyzed in the period prior to SIP submission and budget adequacy
determination or approval, unless EPA and DEP determine it is not a significant
contributor.
VOC, NH3 and SOx analysis is not required in the period prior to SIP submission unless
EPA or DEP determines one or more of these precursors to be a significant contributor.
As a result of the interagency consultation process required by the Transportation Conformity
Rule, and in the absence of a SIP and attendant emission budgets, and in the absence of EPA and
DEP significance determinations, SPC’s PM2.5 conformity analysis encompasses the following
pollutants: Direct PM2.5 emissions (tailpipe, brake wear, tire wear); and NOx precursor
emissions.
Information needed for the PM2.5 conformity assessments is presented in Section V. Results of
the analysis, and the conformity determinations for the PM2.5 nonattainment areas within the SPC
planning area, are found in Section VII.

III. Transportation Networks Developed for Conformity Assessment
SPC’s process for this conformity determination for the 2017-2020 TIP and 2040 Plan called for
use of five TP+-based transportation networks. Each transportation network consists of separate
highway and transit components covering SPC’s entire ten county planning area which includes
Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Fayette, Greene, Indiana, Lawrence, Washington and
Westmoreland counties.
This section provides an overview of the facilities included in each of the networks and how the
networks were used in the conformity determination. An overview of the TP+ transportation
modeling software and SPC’s modeling process is presented in Section IV. Figure 1 presents a
synopsis of the five networks and the major new facilities each includes.
EPA’s Transportation Conformity Rule cites a number of project types which may be excluded
from the regional emissions analyses required to determine conformity of transportation plans
and programs. These “exempt” project types generally include minor projects such as
resurfacing, minor widening, channelization and lighting improvements. “Exempt” projects
were excluded from the regional emissions analysis.
The five networks developed specifically for use in this conformity process were: 1). the
existing year network (2017), which is also a budget year for the PM2.5 NAAQS; 2). 2017-2020
TIP network (2020), which is also the attainment year for the 2012 Annual PM2.5 NAAQS; 3).
an interim year to satisfy the Transportation Conformity Rule requirement that the analysis years
be not more than ten years apart (2025), also a PM2.5 NAAQS budget year; 4). a second interim
year to satisfy the Transportation Conformity Rule requirement that analysis years be not more
than ten years apart (2035); and 5). the Long Range Plan horizon year (2040).
The 2017-2020 TIP is the fiscally constrained program of projects for federal fiscal years 2017
through 2020 (October 1, 2016 through September 30, 2020) that reflect the region’s
transportation priorities. It was adopted by SPC on June 27, 2016. The SPC report 2017-2020
Transportation Improvement Program for Southwestern Pennsylvania (SPC July 2016) provides
more information about the projects programmed on the draft TIP. For purposes of this
conformity assessment it was presumed that all projects programmed on the 2017-2020 TIP for
construction would be completed by 2020. Appendix A lists the projects on the 2017-2020 TIP.
The adopted 2040 Long Range Plan (2040 Plan) is the region’s fiscally constrained long-range
transportation plan. The SPC report Mapping the Future: The Southwestern PA Plan (SPC, July
2015), identifies the specific projects included in the Plan for SPC’s 10-county planning area.
“Non-exempt” projects and facilities listed in Figure 1 were coded into the TP+ -based
transportation networks to define the transportation system for the 2017 network. The projects
and facilities are those listed as completed from 1990 through 2017. The 2017 network was used
to develop emissions estimates for the “existing” (2017) transportation system and as a required
analysis year to develop emissions estimates for the 2017 PM2.5 NAAQS budget year.
Air Quality Conformity Determination 2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program and 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan
Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission – July 2016
Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission
16
“Non-exempt” projects and facilities listed in Figure 1 for completion by 2020 were added to the
2017 network to define the transportation system for the 2020 network. The 2020 (TIP Year)
network is a TP+ -based representation of the region’s highway and transit system as it will
appear upon completion of every project programmed for construction on the 2017-2020 TIP.
This network was used in the conformity analysis to develop emissions estimates for the TIP
horizon year (2020). The 2020 network was used in the conformity analysis to develop
emissions estimates for the 2020 “attainment year” for the 2012 annual PM2.5 NAAQS.
“Non-exempt” projects and facilities listed in Figure 1 for completion between 2020 and 2025
were added to the 2020 network to define the transportation system for the 2025 “interim year”
network. The 2025 network was used in the conformity analysis to develop emissions estimates
for the 2025 “interim year” and 2025 PM2.5 budget year.
“Non-exempt” projects and facilities listed in Figure 1 for completion between 2025 and 2035
were added to the 2025 network to define the transportation system for the 2035 “interim year”
network. The 2035 network was used in the conformity analysis to develop emissions estimates
for the 2035 “interim year” analysis scenario.
“Non-exempt” projects and facilities listed in Figure 1 for completion between 2035 and 2040
were added to the 2035 network to define the transportation system for the Long Range Plan
network. The 2040 network was used in the conformity analysis to develop emissions estimates
for the Long Range Plan analysis scenario.
Of all the highway and transit projects programmed on the 2040 Plan and the 2017-2020 TIP,
only those identified in Figure 1 were coded into the travel demand model for the conformity
analysis as “non-exempt”, regionally significant projects subject to regional emissions analysis.
A number of additional “non-exempt” projects are programmed for construction in that time
period. Due to their nature (small isolated park-n-ride lots, roadway relocation with no capacity
increase, traffic signal coordination, etc.), they could not be coded on the travel model networks.
These projects are addressed in Section VII.
Appendix A contains a one-line summary of every highway and transit project identified on the
adopted 2017-2020 TIP within SPC’s 10-county region. The effect of highway and transit
projects which cannot be reflected on coded transportation networks is discussed in Section VII.

IV. Travel Estimation Process
The travel demand estimates that were used in this conformity analysis are the end result of a
model chain that begins by forecasting and distributing population, households and employment
for the SPC region. The model chain is iterative in nature. Estimates from the travel demand
models are periodically cycled back as inputs to the socio-economic forecasting models.
SPC completed its tenth cycle of population, household and employment forecasts in the spring
of 2015 (Cycle 10 forecast). The Cycle 10 forecast was adopted with the 2040 Plan on June 29,
2015. The Cycle 10 forecast replaced the Cycle 9a forecast which was adopted in 2012. An
updated regional forecast, the Cycle 10a forecast, is now available. It was developed to improve
the distribution of “Other” employment (forestry, logging, agriculture, oil and gas extraction,
mining, construction, wholesale trade, and farming). The Cycle 10a forecast was adopted with
the 2017-2020 TIP on June 27, 2016. The base year for the Cycle 10a forecast is 2015. The
horizon year is 2040. The Cycle 10a forecast was used as the basis for the highway and transit
trip forecasts for the travel demand model for this conformity assessment. With each cycle,
models are revised to take advantage of the latest data and to incorporate evolving modeling
techniques.
SPC uses an integrated economic-demographic forecasting model to develop regional estimates
of future population and employment. That model, known as REMI (Regional Economic
Models, Inc.), integrates an economic forecast with a demographic forecast for economic sub-
regions of the United States. Based on historical analysis of the regional economy and a forecast
of the U.S. economy, REMI forecasts regional employment, production, and other regional
economic variables. REMI also utilizes historical data on population to forecast regional
population growth or decline based on a traditional cohort-survival model. Then, based on the
economic forecast, REMI determines the amount of migration in or out of the region for workers
and their dependents to produce a complete population forecast. The model is recursive in
nature. The population forecast is used to revise the employment estimate. The new
employment estimate is then used to allow for further changes in economic migration. This
cycle continues until the economic and demographic forecasts balance out. SPC first used the
REMI model for forecasting in 1992, when the Cycle 4a forecasts were produced.
In 1992-93, SPC developed a model to allocate regional forecasts of population, households and
employment to the traffic analysis zones in the region. The allocation model, known as
MERLAM (Mature Economic Region Land Use Allocation Model) uses simple algorithms and
an extensive database to allocate population and employment. The model's algorithms include a
number of policy-sensitive variables. The database includes land use and attractiveness
measures. The land use database provides essential baseline information on each traffic analysis
zone.

The attractiveness measures are used to determine each zone's relative attractiveness for different
types of development. By varying the attractiveness measures and by altering the values of the
model's policy variables, MERLAM is able to estimate the impact of various regional land use
and development scenarios. SPC updated the databases and streamlined the MERLAM
allocation process early in 2015 during development of the Cycle 10 forecasts. The Cycle 10a
forecasts were allocated to traffic zones through the use of MERLAM.
SPC’s Cycle 10a base year estimates (2015), and 2040 forecasts of population, employment, and
households were used to estimate regional travel demand for this conformity assessment. SPC
developed its travel estimation models to take full advantage of the capabilities of the TP+
software package. TP+ is a library of programs used for transportation planning.
Travel simulations for the ten-county SPC travel model region are produced with a standard
four-step chain of transportation models developed by SPC for TP+ processing. The four steps
include trip generation, trip distribution, modal split and travel assignment models. Travel was
simulated for 2015 and 2040 based on socio-economic data from SPC's Cycle 10a forecasts.
County-level socio-economic data is shown in Table 1 (population), Table 2 (households), and
Table 3 (employment). The model was last validated in the spring of 2016. Simulated 2015
travel was validated with 2014 Census data, traffic counts, VMT, and transit ridership data.
SPC's trip generation model simulates person trip productions and attractions for three trip
purposes (home-based work, home-based other, and non-home based) and truck trip productions
and attractions for three truck classes (light, medium and heavy). Person trip productions are
estimated by applying household trip rates to Cycle 10a household data in a cross-classification
model stratified by household size and auto ownership. Person trip attractions are estimated by
applying trip rates stratified by households and by three employment categories. In some
instances, attraction trip rates are further stratified by area. Home-based work trip control totals
are averaged production and attraction totals. Home-based other attractions were balanced to
match productions. Non-home based person trips and truck trips are estimated by applying trip
rates stratified by employment category. These rates are applied to Cycle 10a employment data.
Gravity models were calibrated to distribute person trips and truck trips by each trip generation
category. Impedances are a weighted sum of highway travel time and distance to reflect out-of-
pocket trip cost. Travel time includes running time, terminal time, and a penalty for major river
crossings. Home-based work trips were distributed with peak-period impedances; all other trips
were distributed with off-peak impedances.
A control total of air passenger-related travel to and from the Pittsburgh International Airport
was derived from independent airport planning studies for existing and forecast years. A gravity
model to distribute these trips was calibrated with air enplanement data reported for 2013. These
trips were then added to home-based other trips.

The home-based work component of the mode split model was initially developed by SPC in
1995 when calibration of a home-based work trip auto occupancy and mode split model was
completed. In addition to estimating the number of person trips using transit, the home-based
work mode split model also stratifies non-transit trips by four levels of auto occupancy (drive
alone, two person carpools, three person carpools, and vehicles with four or more occupants).
Based on those stratifications the model then converts home-based highway person trips into
vehicle trips for use in highway assignment. The model is sensitive to the presence of high-
occupancy vehicle (HOV) facilities in the highway network. The 2010-2014 Census American
Community Survey (ACS) Journey-to-Work (JTW) data reported that, regionwide, 10.2 percent
of persons traveling to work were in HOVs (vehicles with two or more occupants). Table 4
compares actual JTW percentages with the model simulation by trip attraction districts. Actual
numbers of trips, while shown in the table, should not be compared because JTW data only
represents persons working at their primary job rather than all home-based work trips. The SPC
model estimates that 10.9 percent of 2015 work trips travel in HOVs.
The auto occupancy component of the mode split model could not be used for non-work trips
because the JTW survey data includes only work trips and there are no other available data
sources for calibration. Non-work highway person trips were converted to vehicle trips by
applying vehicle occupancy rates developed by SPC and stratified by trip purpose and attraction
district.
Three travel impedances by auto and transit modes are included in the mode split model. These
are run time (total in-vehicle time), "excess" time (total out-of-vehicle time), and cost (out-of-
pocket cost). For home-based work trips the impedances are based on restrained highway travel
times and peak period transit service. For home-based other and non-home based trips,
impedances are based on free-flow highway times and mid-day transit service.
Table 5 compares observed and simulated transit route trips. Simulated network assignment
summaries for 2015 and observed data for an average month (April) in 2014 were used for the
comparisons. The route trip data and corridor definitions were obtained from Port Authority of
Allegheny County and other transit providers in the region. Table 5 shows that, regionally,
simulated route trips are within one percent of observed data.
Overall, it was determined that transit mode split and transit assignment results were reasonably
close to observed data.

A gravity model was calibrated for distributing internal/external vehicle trips (trips with one end
inside and one end outside the region). To generate the internal/external trips to be distributed,
relationships were initially developed between internal person trip ends by county and census
2010 journey to work data for work trips destined to the region from the external area. These
trip patterns were factored to match PennDOT and SPC traffic count data by external cordon
segment as shown on Map 4. Table 6 compares simulated external cordon segment volumes to
PennDOT and SPC traffic count data from various years and factored to a 2014 value using
factors supplied by PennDOT. The total simulated 2015 volume regionwide is about three
percent higher than the observed volume.
An estimate of through trips (vehicle trips with both ends outside the region) is the final
component of trips needed for the regional trip matrices. Results from SPC’s 2006 External
Cordon Survey provided traffic volume estimates for the major travel corridors crossing the
region’s boundary. These traffic volumes were factored to a 2014 value using factors supplied
by PennDOT. The growth in through trips for forecast years is based on the increase in trips in
the modeled area (all except Allegheny) for the appropriate time period.
SPC assigns vehicle trips to the TP+ -based highway networks with a multi-iteration equilibrium
assignment process which includes capacity restraint after each iteration. The impedances used
for capacity restraint are highway based costs which include weighted values of time and
distance. Through trips and medium and heavy-duty truck trips are pre-loaded on the network
with a one pass assignment that attracts these vehicles to high-level facilities in the network and
keeps them there through iterations of capacity restraint. Also, the highway assignment
procedure permits only HOV trips to use HOV facilities. The accuracy of the travel estimation
process was validated with 2014 traffic counts at PennDOT’s permanent traffic count stations in
the region and 2014 highway VMT data.
SPC collected traffic counts on the bridges crossing the Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio
rivers in 2007. These traffic counts were factored to 2014 values using factors supplied by
PennDOT. Table 7 compares simulated river crossing volumes to the factored SPC traffic count
data. Map 6 illustrates the river crossing segments reported in Table 7. The total simulated 2015
volume regionwide is about seventeen percent higher than the factored 2014 volume.
PennDOT maintains eleven permanent traffic count stations in the region as shown on Map 4. A
comparison of 2014 traffic counts to assigned 2015 link volumes at each location is made in
Table 8. The total simulated volume for all eleven stations is about fifteen percent lower than the
observed volume.
VMT, stratified by functional class and county, from a 2015 traffic assignment was compared to
2014 VMT estimates made by PennDOT. Regionwide, there was a two percent difference
between observed and simulated VMT. That comparison is shown in Table 9.
Overall, it was determined that highway assignment results were reasonably close to the
observed data.

The above models were used to produce regional person trip matrices for 2015 from the
Cycle 10a base year estimates. In addition, trip productions and attractions were generated for
2040 from the Cycle 10a 2040 forecasts. Prior to trip distribution, productions and attractions
for 2017, 2020, 2025, and 2035 were developed by interpolating between 2015 and 2040. Trip
distribution for each scenario was based on the characteristics of the transportation network
defined for the scenario.
Free-flow highway speeds and link capacities are selected from a look-up table that is stratified
by roadway facility type and area type. SPC has developed a model to calculate area type based
on population and employment densities. In general, free-flow speed and capacity decreases
with increasing development density. The area type model provides an automated procedure for
updating area type codes in the network based on changes in existing and future development
densities. The area type model was applied for each scenario using Cycle 10a population and
employment densities estimated for the scenario year.
Modal split model runs were made for each scenario using appropriate combinations of trip
tables and transportation networks. Modal split results for the 2015 network are presented in
Table 10. The 2040 network modal split results are shown in Table 11. Table 12 summarizes
regional trips by purpose and mode for each of the seven scenarios defined for this conformity
assessment of the 2017-2020 TIP and the 2040 Plan. Table 13 summarizes modeled HOV trips
for each scenario.

This section summarizes how EPA's MOVES 2014 emissions model was used to develop
emission factors for use in this conformity determination.
MOVES 2014 (Motor Vehicle Emissions Simulator) is the latest version of EPA's emissions
model. It is EPA’s official model for estimating emissions from highway vehicles for SIP
emission inventories and transportation conformity. The methodologies incorporated into
MOVES for estimating emissions are based on methods and research conducted by EPA.
The analysis methodology and data inputs for this analysis were developed through interagency
consultation and used available EPA guidance documents that included: Policy Guidance on the
Use of MOVES2014 and Subsequent Minor Revisions for State Implementation Plan
Development, Transportation Conformity, and Other Purposes, US EPA Office of
Transportation and Air Quality, EPA-420-B-14-008, July 2014; Using MOVES to Prepare
Emission Inventories in State Implementation Plans and Transportation Conformity: Technical
Guidance for MOVES2014. US EPA Office of Transportation and Air Quality, EPA-420-B-15-
007, January 2015; Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES) – User Guide for
MOVES2014, US EPA Office of Transportation and Air Quality, EPA-420-B-14-055; July 2014.
MOVES emission estimates depend on a mix of local and default (internal to MOVES) data that
are used in the analysis. Local data has been used for data items that have a significant impact
on emissions, including: vehicle miles of travel (VMT), vehicle population, congested speeds,
and vehicle type mix, as well as environmental and fuel assumptions. Local data inputs to the
analysis process reflect the latest available planning assumptions using information obtained
from PennDOT, DEP and other local/national sources.
The methodology used for this analysis includes the use of custom post-processing software
(PPSUITE) to calculate hourly speeds and prepare key traffic input files to the MOVES emission
model. PPSUITE consists of a set of programs that analyzes highway operating conditions,
calculates highway speeds, compiles VMT and vehicle type mix data, and prepares MOVES runs
and processes MOVES outputs. PPSUITE is a widely used and accepted tool for estimating
speeds and processing emissions rates. The PPSUITE tool has been used for developing on-road
highway mobile source inventories in SIP revisions, control strategy analyses, and conformity
analyses in other states. The software was developed to utilize accepted transportation
engineering methodologies. The PPSUITE process is integral to producing traffic-related input
files to the MOVES emission model.
Other MOVES input files are prepared externally to the PPSUITE software, including vehicle
population, vehicle age, environmental, and fuel input files. The CENTRAL software is also
used in this analysis. CENTRAL is a menu-driven software platform that executes the PPSUITE
and MOVES processes in batch mode. The CENTRAL software allows users to execute runs for
a variety of input options and integrates custom MYSQL steps into the process. CENTRAL
provides important quality control and assurance steps, including file naming and storage
automation.

A large number of inputs to MOVES are needed to fully account for the numerous vehicle and
environmental parameters that affect emissions. These inputs include traffic flow characteristics,
vehicle descriptions, fuel parameters, I/M program parameters and environmental variables.
MOVES includes a default national database of meteorology, vehicle fleet, vehicle activity, fuel,
and emission control program data for every county. EPA, however, cannot certify that the
default data is the most current or best available information for any specific area. As a result,
local data, where available, is recommended for use when conducting a regional conformity
analysis. A mix of local and default data is used for this analysis.
Emission rates within MOVES vary significantly by vehicle type. MOVES produces emission
rates for thirteen vehicle source input types. The emissions estimation process includes a method
to disaggregate the traffic volumes output from SPC’s travel demand model to the thirteen
vehicle source types. Vehicle type pattern data is used by PPSUITE to distribute the hourly
roadway segment volumes among the thirteen vehicle source types. Similar to the 24-hour
pattern data, this data contains percentage splits to each source type for every hour of the day.
The vehicle type pattern data is developed from several sources of information including
PennDOT truck percentages from PennDOT's statewide Roadway Management System (RMS)
database, hourly distributions for trucks and total traffic compiled by PennDOT’s Bureau of
Planning and Research (BPR), transit data from PennDOT and the National Transit Database
Transit Profiles, and school bus registration data from PennDOT’s Bureau of Motor Vehicles
Registration Database.
Vehicle type percentages are also input into the capacity analysis section of PPSUITE to adjust
the speeds in response to truck volume. Larger trucks take up more roadway space compared to
an equal number of cars and light trucks, which is accounted for in the speed estimation process
by adjusting capacity using information from the Transportation Research Board’s fifth edition
of the Highway Capacity Manual.
Vehicle age distributions are input to MOVES for each of the thirteen source types. These
distributions reflect the percentage of the vehicle fleet falling under each vehicle model year
(MY), to a maximum age of 31 years. The vehicle age distributions were prepared from the
most recently available registration download from PennDOT’s Bureau of Motor Vehicles
Registration Database. Due to data limitations, information for light duty vehicles was used as
local data for MOVES inputs, while heavy-duty vehicles used the internal MOVES national
default data.
The vehicle population information, including the number and age of vehicles, impacts
forecasted start and evaporative emissions within MOVES. Similar to vehicle ages, MOVES
requires vehicle populations for each of the thirteen source type categories. County vehicle
registration data was used to estimate vehicle population for light-duty vehicles, transit buses,
and school buses. Other heavy-duty vehicle population values were based on VMT for each
source type using the vehicle mix and pattern data discussed previously. PPSUITE automatically
applies MOVES default ratios of VMT and source type population (e.g. the number of miles per
vehicle by source type) to the local VMT estimates to produce vehicle population.

Average monthly minimum temperatures, maximum temperatures, and humidity values are
consistent with the regional State Implementation Plan (SIP) modeling conducted by DEP.
The MOVES default fuel formulation and fuel supply data were reviewed and updated based on
available local volumetric fuel property information. The “gasohol” market penetration and Reid
Vapor Pressure (RVP) values were updated, but MOVES default data was used for the remaining
parameters.
The default I/M program parameters included in MOVES were examined for each county in the
SPC region. Necessary changes were made to the default parameters to match the actual local
program. A basic I/M program was begun by Pennsylvania in 1984 and applied to virtually all
light-duty gasoline powered cars and trucks newer than the 1967 model year that were registered
within designated areas of the state. A computerized analysis of vehicle tailpipe exhaust
emissions with the engine idling (idle test) was performed annually. The test was conducted by
licensed inspection facilities where repairs on inspected vehicles could also be performed.
Within the Southwestern Pennsylvania region, the basic I/M program applies only to pre-1981
model year vehicles registered in four counties (Allegheny, Beaver, Washington and
Westmoreland). Estimates of failure rates, test waiver rates, and compliance rates for the basic
I/M program are also are specified in the I/M program parameters.
Pennsylvania implemented an enhanced I/M program in 1997 for the Southwestern Pennsylvania
region. That program applies to virtually all gasoline powered cars and trucks between model
years 1981 and 1995 that are registered in Allegheny, Beaver, Washington and Westmoreland
counties. The enhanced I/M program employs a more precise emissions test. As with basic I/M,
the test is conducted annually by licensed inspection facilities where repairs to inspected vehicles
can also be performed. The test measures tailpipe emissions at two engine speeds. One test is
made while the engine is idling and the second test occurs after completion of a 30 second, 2500
rpm cycle. Estimates of failure rates, test waiver rates and compliance rates for the enhanced
I/M program are also specified.
Further enhancements to the I/M program were implemented in 2003 for the Southwestern
Pennsylvania region. That new program utilizes On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) technology and
applies to 1996 model year and newer gasoline powered cars and light trucks. This annual test is
conducted by licensed inspection facilities where repairs to inspected vehicles can also be
performed. When a vehicle is taken to a service center or repair shop, the diagnostic trouble
codes stored in the vehicle’s computer memory are retrieved. The diagnostic trouble codes
identify failures, malfunctions, or deterioration of the vehicle’s emissions control components.
Estimates of failure rates, test waiver rates, and compliance rates for the OBD I/M program are
also specified.
Scenarios that specify the enhanced or OBD I/M programs also include an anti-tampering
program consisting of a visual inspection of the emissions control system components to detect
tampering and other damage. The program mandates the repair or replacement of defective or
missing components.

The Pennsylvania Clean Vehicles (PCV) Program, adopted in 1998, incorporates the California
Low Emission Vehicle Program (CA LEV, as amended) by reference although it allowed
automakers to comply with the National Low Emission Vehicle (NLEV) program as an
alternative to this Pennsylvania program until model year (MY) 2006. Beginning with MY
2008, “new” passenger cars and light-duty trucks with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of
8,500 pounds or less that are sold or leased and titled in Pennsylvania must be certified by the
California Air Resources Board (CARB) or be certified for sale in all 50 states. For this
program, a “new” vehicle is a qualified vehicle with an odometer reading less than 7,500 miles.
DEP and PennDOT worked with the automobile manufacturers, dealers, and other interested
business partners and finalized procedures for complying with these new requirements. DEP is
focusing on its outreach with the manufacturers and dealers on what they can offer for sale and
how to certify that the vehicles are compliant. PennDOT’s role is to ensure paperwork
procedures for title and registrations include these certifications of compliance or that the vehicle
owner qualifies for an exemption to the requirements. In all cases, DEP will use information
obtained during PennDOT’s title and registration process to oversee and audit, as needed, certain
vehicle title transactions to determine compliance to the program. The impacts of this program
are modeled for all analysis years beyond 2008.
After computing speeds and aggregating VMT and VHT, PPSUITE prepares traffic-related
inputs needed to run EPA’s MOVES software. Additional required MOVES inputs are prepared
externally from the processing software and include temperatures, I/M program parameters, fuel
characteristics, vehicle fleet age distributions, and source type population. The MOVES county
importer file (movesimporter.xml) is created and run in batch mode. This program converts all
data files into the MYSQL format used by the MOVES model. At that point, a MOVES run
specification file (*.mrs) is created which specifies options and key data locations for the run.
The MOVES run is then executed in batch mode. MOVES can be executed using either an
inventory or rate-based approach. For this analysis, MOVES is applied using the inventory-
based approach. Using this approach, actual VMT and vehicle population are provided as inputs
to the model; MOVES is responsible for producing the total emissions for the region.
Sample MOVES data importer files (*.xml) and run specification files (*.mrs) are provided in
Appendix B.

VI. Transportation Model Application and Results
Five scenarios were defined by selectively assigning the 2017, 2020, 2025, 2035, and 2040 trip
tables described in Section IV to the transportation networks defined in Section III. The highway
and transit assignment results were used to develop an emission level for each scenario. The five
scenarios included:
1. Existing Year and PM2.5 NAAQS Budget Year (2017 network, 2017 trips)
2. TIP Build Year and 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS Attainment Year (2020 network, 2020 trips)
3. Interim Year #1 and PM2.5 NAAQS Budget Year (2025 network, 2025 trips)
4. Interim Year #2 (2035 network, 2035 trips)
5. Long Range Plan (2040 network, 2040 trips)
Highway and transit assignments for each scenario were produced using the methodology
described in Section IV. For each scenario, highway assignment summaries were developed and
stratified by county and functional class. Separate summaries were developed for each
nonattainment area. These summaries include vehicle miles of travel (VMT) and weighted
average speed. For purposes of the conformity process, assignment summaries for the network
centroid connectors served as a partial surrogate for local (non-network) travel characteristics.
An estimate of intrazonal travel was also developed from each highway assignment. The
intrazonal estimate was included in the local travel summary. Transit assignment summaries
were used to estimate bus vehicle miles and average speed for peak and off-peak conditions.
Peak and off-peak vehicle miles and speed of automobile trips to park-and-ride facilities were
also estimated from transit assignments
Two adjustments were made to the network VMT that was output from highway assignments.
First, an estimate of the VMT reduction potential of various Travel Demand Management
(TDM) strategies included in the TIP and Plan was developed through use of a TDM evaluation
model. Second, VMT was seasonally adjusted to appropriately represent a typical day for each
analysis month.
Implementation of the TDM strategies defined in Figure 2 can produce modest reductions (3-5
percent) in forecasted regional VMT. Funding for these TDM strategies is included as a line
item in the 2040 Plan under the Traffic Operations and Safety Investment Strategy.

Funding in the 2017-2020 TIP is programmed for the specific TDM projects listed below:
Transportation Management Association Funding –ACTA, OTMA, PDP, $3,000,000 (MPMS#69837)
CommuteInfo Individual Outreach - SPC, $125,000 (MPMS#100376)
Pittsburgh Route and Sign Network – City of Pittsburgh, $542,000 (MPMS#94889)
Carnegie Park-N-Ride – PAAC, $13,000,000 (MPMS#106594)
Butler Multimodal Center – BTA, $2,875,000 (MPMS#88989)
New Transit Service (Butler to Pittsburgh) – BTA, $1,000,000 (MPMS#88990)
Bus Shelters – BTA, $100,000 (MPMS#83836)
Rt.68 Park and Ride Program - BTA, $3,750,000 (MPMS#106605)
Bus Stop Signage - NCATA, $90,000 (MPMS#106672)
Renovate Shelters - NCATA, $135,000 (MPMS#106675)
Bike Enhancements/Marketing - MMVTA, $70,000 (MPMS#106663)
The total cost identified in the 2017-2020 TIP for these eleven projects is $24,687,000. A
similar level of funding for TDM projects is available for programming on future TIPs from the
Traffic Operations and Safety line item in the Long Range Plan.
To evaluate the effect of the TDM strategies on VMT, SPC utilized a microcomputer software
package known as the TDM Evaluation Model. That model is an analytic tool that supports the
quantitative evaluation of TDM programs. The model was developed with the support of the
Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA).
The input data includes information about the package of TDM strategies to be implemented, the
marketing and educational activities to promote the benefits of the strategies, and the expected
level of participation by employers and individuals within identified target markets.
The TDM strategies in Figure 2 defined by SPC for this conformity assessment include regional
transit and ridesharing promotional programs, compressed work week and telecommuting, as
well as direct subsidies by employers to employees who commute by transit, carpool or vanpool.
It was not presumed that any of the elements of the TDM packages would be mandated by law.
An active ongoing marketing and public relations effort was defined as part of the model inputs.
A “base” or current level of implementation for TDM strategies was included as model inputs for
both the 2020 (TIP) and 2040 (Plan) scenarios.
The model was run for the 2020 and 2040 scenarios. Results for 2025 and 2035 were
interpolated from the 2020 and 2040 outputs. Estimated VMT reductions as a result of the
modeled TDM strategies ranged from around 183,000 vehicle miles in 2020 to about 1.4 million
in 2040. Input and output summary reports generated by the TDM model, as well as employer
participation rates, appear in Appendix D.
Information from SPC’s travel model was input into the MOVES 2014 model and used in the
calculation of emissions for each nonattainment and maintenance area for each analysis year.
The resulting VMT, average speed, and emissions are presented in Section VII (Tables 14
through 17).

VII. Conformity Determination
PM2.5 Nonattainment Areas
Conformity determinations for transportation plans and programs under the PM2.5 air quality
standards are based, as appropriate, on build/no-build analyses, comparisons to an emissions
budget, and/or comparison to emissions levels from a base year.
As described in Section II, quantitative analysis of emissions under the 1997 annual PM2.5
NAAQS and the 2006 daily PM2.5 NAAQS is not required for the Liberty-Clairton
nonattainment area.
The appropriate conformity test for the Indiana County portion of the Johnstown nonattainment
area under the 1997 annual PM2.5 NAAQS and the 2006 daily PM2.5 NAAQS is a comparison of
future year emissions to approved PM2.5 and NOx MVEBs. This analysis should demonstrate
reduced emissions in a future year under the build condition when compared with the appropriate
emissions budget.
The appropriate conformity test for the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley nonattainment area under the
1997 annual PM2.5 NAAQS and the 2006 daily PM2.5 NAAQS is a comparison of future year
emissions to approved PM2.5 and NOx MVEBs. This analysis should demonstrate reduced
emissions in a future year under the build condition when compared with the appropriate
emissions budget.
The appropriate conformity test for the Allegheny County nonattainment area under the 2012
annual PM2.5 standard is a comparison of future year emissions to Allegheny County inventory
emissions (including allocated safety margin) that are contained in the Maintenance Plan
submitted to EPA for the 1997/2006 PM2.5 NAAQS. This analysis should demonstrate reduced
emissions in a future year under the build condition when compared with the Allegheny County
inventory emissions.
Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley PM2.5 Nonattainment Area
As noted in Section II, MVEBs have been established for use in conformity assessments for the
1997 annual PM2.5 and 2006 daily PM2.5 NAAQS for the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley PM2.5
nonattainment area. The PM2.5 and NOx emission factors from the MOVES model, in
combination with the highway and transit assignment results from the five scenarios described in
Section III, were used to develop the annual emission levels for the nonattainment area.
The total annual VMT, and the PM2.5 and NOx emission estimates and MVEB values for the
nonattainment area are presented in Table 14 for each analysis year. The estimated emissions
and MVEB values are plotted on Figures 3 (PM2.5) and 4 (NOx). VMT and emissions by county
and facility type for each scenario are presented in Appendix C.
Air Quality Conformity Determination 2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program and 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan
Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission – July 2016
Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission
50
Conformity for the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley nonattainment area under the 1997 annual PM2.5
and 2006 daily PM2.5 standard is demonstrated if future annual emissions are less than MVEB
levels. In all analysis years, as Table 14 and Figures 3 and 4 demonstrate, future annual
emissions are less than the MVEB. The analysis shows that the criteria for conformity under the
1997 annual PM2.5 and 2006 daily PM2.5 standard have been satisfied.
No goals, directives, recommendations or projects identified in the 2040 Plan or the 2017-2020
TIP contradict in a negative manner any specific requirements or commitments of the applicable
state implementation plan. There are no transportation control measures in the applicable state
implementation plan.
Allegheny County PM2.5 Nonattainment Area
As noted in Section II, MVEBs have not been established for the 2012 annual PM2.5 NAAQS for
the Allegheny County PM2.5 nonattainment area. Emissions inventory values for 2011, and
emission projections for 2017 and 2025, for Allegheny County (including allocated safety
margin) are contained in the Maintenance Plan submitted to EPA for the 1997/2006 PM2.5
NAAQS for the larger Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley PM2.5 Nonattainment Area. Through the
interagency consultation process, values used for the conformity test for this nonattainment area
were developed from emission inventory data contained in this SIP revision. The PM2.5 and
NOx emission factors from the MOVES model, in combination with the highway and transit
assignment results from the seven scenarios described in Section III, were used to develop the
emission levels for the nonattainment area.
The total annual VMT, and the PM2.5 and NOx emission estimates and emissions inventory
values, for the nonattainment area are presented in Table 16 for each analysis year. The
estimated emissions and inventory values are plotted on Figures 7 (PM2.5) and 8 (NOx). VMT
and emissions by facility type for each scenario are presented in Appendix C.
Conformity for the Allegheny County nonattainment area under the 2012 annual PM2.5 standard
is demonstrated if future annual emissions are less than the emission inventory values. In all
analysis years, as Table 16 and Figures 7 and 8 demonstrate, future annual emissions are less
than the inventory values. The analysis shows that the criteria for conformity under the 2012
annual PM2.5 standard have been satisfied.
No goals, directives, recommendations or projects identified in the 2040 Plan or the 2017-2020
TIP contradict in a negative manner any specific requirements or commitments of the applicable
state implementation plan. There are no transportation control measures in the applicable state
implementation plan.
Indiana County Portion of the Johnstown PM2.5 Nonattainment Area
As noted in Section II, emission budgets have been established for use in conformity assessments
for the 1997 annual PM2.5 and 2006 daily PM2.5 NAAQS for the Indiana County portion of the

Johnstown PM2.5 nonattainment area. The PM2.5 and NOx emission factors from the MOVES
model, in combination with the highway and transit assignment results from the five scenarios
described in Section III, were used to develop the annual emission levels for the nonattainment
area.
The total annual VMT, and the PM2.5 and NOx emission estimates and MVEB values for the
nonattainment area are presented in Table 15 for each analysis year. The estimated emissions
and MVEB values are plotted on Figures 5 (PM2.5) and 6 (NOx). VMT and emissions by county
and facility type for each scenario are presented in Appendix C.
Conformity for the Indiana County portion of the Johnstown PM2.5 nonattainment area is
demonstrated if future annual emissions are less than MVEB levels. In all analysis years, as
Table 15 and Figures 5 and 6 demonstrate, future annual emissions are less than the MVEB. The
analysis shows that the criteria for conformity under the 1997 annual PM2.5 and 2006 daily PM2.5
standard have been satisfied.
No goals, directives, recommendations or projects identified in the 2040 Plan or the 2017-2020
TIP contradict in a negative manner any specific requirements or commitments of the applicable
state implementation plan. There are no transportation control measures in the applicable state
implementation plan.
8-Hour Ozone Nonattainment and Maintenance Areas
Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley 8-Hour Ozone Nonattainment Area
Conformity determinations for transportation plans and programs under the 2008 8-hour ozone
NAAQS are based, as appropriate, on build/no-build analyses, comparisons to an emissions
budget, and/or comparison to 2002 emissions levels.
As described in Section II, the appropriate test for the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley 8-hour ozone
nonattainment area is a comparison of future year emissions to established VOC and NOx
emissions budgets. The analysis should demonstrate reduced emissions in a future year under
the build condition when compared with the appropriate emissions budget. The VOC and NOx
emission factors, in combination with the highway and transit assignment results from the
scenarios described in Section III, were used to develop the emissions levels for the budget
comparisons.
Daily VMT and emission estimates for each scenario, as well as the approved VOC and NOx
budgets, are presented in Table 17 and are plotted on Figures 9 (VOC) and 10 (NOx). VMT and
emissions by county and facility type for each scenario are presented in Appendix C.
Applying the budget test demonstrates that the conformity criteria are satisfied for both VOC and
NOx emissions. For each scenario, VOC and NOx emissions are lower than the corresponding
emission budget.

No goals, directives, recommendations or projects identified in the 2017-2020 TIP or the 2040
Plan contradict in a negative manner any specific requirements or commitments of the applicable
state implementation plan. There are no transportation control measures in the applicable state
implementation plan.
Allegheny County Carbon Monoxide Maintenance Area
As noted in Section II, EPA approved a second limited carbon monoxide maintenance plan for
this area which demonstrates that the Pittsburgh area will continue to maintain the CO NAAQS.
Under limited maintenance plans, EPA policy does not require a carbon monoxide emission
budget test for conformity determinations. Emission budgets in limited carbon monoxide
maintenance plan areas are considered to be not constraining during the maintenance period.
The applicable conformity criteria for carbon monoxide have, therefore, been satisfied.
Liberty-Clairton PM10 and PM2.5 Maintenance Areas
As noted in Section II, EPA has determined that PM10 and PM2.5 nonattainment in the Liberty-
Clairton area stems primarily from industrial sources in the area and not from mobile sources.
This nonattainment area was not required to have PM10 or PM2.5 transportation conformity
budgets. Because the PM10 and PM2.5 violations had been caused by industrial stationary sources
and motor vehicles were not an important contributor to the nonattainment problem, no
additional quantitative analysis for transportation-related PM10 or PM2.5 impacts is required for
conformity purposes. The applicable conformity criteria for both PM10 and PM2.5 have,
therefore, been satisfied.
Qualitative Analysis of Non-Codable Regionally Significant Projects
Due to their nature, a number of regionally significant projects in the 2017-2020 TIP and the
2040 Plan could not be coded on TP+-based transportation networks and were therefore not
included in the quantitative assessment which was used to develop the information in Tables 14
through 17. Those excluded projects fall into two general categories: 1) highway/bridge
relocations with no increase in capacity; and 2) projects like small, isolated park-and-ride lots,
Intermodal Transportation Centers, and traffic signal coordination projects. To include the non-
codable, regionally significant projects in the conformity assessment required a separate,
qualitative assessment of their impacts on regional air quality.
Some of the regionally significant projects identified in the 2017-2020 TIP and the 2040 Plan
2040 involve new highway facilities on new right-of-way. For most of the projects of that type
there was enough of a difference between the build and no-build conditions that the difference
(change in capacity, miles of highway, etc.) could be reflected, and coded, onto the TP+-based
highway networks. A few of the highway projects that involve new right-of-way would simply

replace a deficient or unsafe facility with a comparable facility (no change in length or capacity)
constructed to current design standards in a new location. The design of those new facilities
would include features such as easier grades and curves, wider lanes, better sight distance and
wider shoulders. Those design improvements cannot be reflected in the quantitative analysis.
Those design elements would, nevertheless, tend to result in fewer accidents, reduce delay and
promote a more uniform travel speed on the facility. Those kinds of improvements in traffic
operations generally have a positive effect on emissions. Implementation of the “non-codable”
highway and bridge relocation projects should not worsen the region's air quality.
A number of small, isolated park-and-ride lots, Intermodal Transportation Centers, and traffic
signal coordination projects are identified in the 2017-2020 TIP. The 2040 Plan includes
strategies to implement projects of these types. The identified TIP projects were assessed by
SPC for their emissions reduction potential. An approved evaluation methodology, developed by
PennDOT for determining eligibility for CMAQ (Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality
Program) funding, was used by SPC in those project-level assessments. Regionally significant
projects assessed with the CMAQ model which could not be coded on TP+-based transportation
networks are listed below. The CMAQ model assessments were conducted with project
information provided by the project sponsors. Each of the projects tested with the CMAQ model
demonstrated a potential to reduce ozone and PM2.5 precursor emissions. The effect on regional
emissions from implementation of these projects was not included in the quantitative analysis
detailed on Tables 14 through 17 and Figures 3 through 10. Nevertheless, implementation of the

Conclusion
In conclusion, the region's 2017-2020 TIP and the 2040 Plan are in conformance with the federal
Clean Air Act, as amended. This finding of conformity is based upon both quantitative and
qualitative analyses designed to address the conformity criteria outlined in EPA's Transportation
Conformity Rule for the nonattainment and maintenance areas within SPC’s planning region
designated under the 2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS, the 2006 daily PM2.5 NAAQS, the 1997
annual PM2.5 NAAQS, the 2012 annual PM2.5 NAAQS, the 1987 PM10 NAAQS, and the 1971
carbon monoxide NAAQS. This report has documented the process used by SPC in the spring of
2016 to make its finding of conformity for the 2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program
and Mapping the Future: The Southwestern PA Plan (the 2040 Transportation Plan for
Southwestern Pennsylvania).
SPC’s conformity process demonstrates that the 2017-2020 TIP and the 2040 Plan satisfy the
applicable conformity criteria under the 2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS, the 2006 daily PM2.5
NAAQS, the 1997 annual PM2.5 NAAQS, the 2012 annual PM2.5 NAAQS, the 1987 PM10
NAAQS, and the 1971 carbon monoxide NAAQS.

VIII. Public Review and Comment
The draft Air Quality Conformity Determination for the Pittsburgh Transportation Management
Area was available for public review and comment from May 4, 2016, through June 3, 2016,
concurrent with the public comment period for the draft 2017-2020 Transportation Improvement
Program for Southwestern Pennsylvania (TIP); amendments to Mapping the Future: The
Southwestern PA Plan (2040 Transportation Plan) to reflect project phasing and cost information
included in the draft TIP; and the draft report – Environmental Justice Benefits and Burdens
Assessment of the Draft 2017-2020 TIP. Public review copies of these documents were available
during the comment period at the SPC offices, the planning offices of SPC's members, and at
many local libraries throughout the region. In addition, electronic versions of these documents
were available on the internet at www.spcregion.org.
Written comments were accepted at the SPC offices during the public review and comment
period. Comments were also accepted via e-mail and fax. In addition, eleven public meetings
were held during the public review and comment period by SPC’s Public Participation Panels
(PPPs). One meeting was held in each of SPC’s member jurisdictions.
Complete documentation of the public review and comment period is contained in the
companion document Public Participation Report, (SPC, July 2016). That document contains
copies of the legal notices, newspaper advertisements, SPC webpage text, public meeting
summaries, all written testimony received by SPC, a summary of all comments received during
the public review period, and SPC’s responses to those comments.
SPC did not receive any public comment on the conformity assessment.
Minor modifications were made to the 2017-2020 TIP as a result of public comment. No
revisions in the conformity process or the conformity findings were needed as a result of those
TIP modifications.
SPC, in its role as MPO for the Southwestern Pennsylvania region, formally acted at its June 27,
2016 meeting to make the finding of conformity, required under EPA's Transportation
Conformity Rule, for the 2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program for Southwestern
Pennsylvania and for the amended 2040 Transportation Plan for Southwestern Pennsylvania.
Copies of SPC Resolutions 9-16 and 11-16 are included as Appendix F. Resolution 9-16 finds
that the 2017-2020 TIP and the 2040 Transportation Plan conform with the requirements of the
Clean Air Act (as amended), with the finding of conformity based upon the criteria outlined in
EPA’s Transportation Conformity Rule. Through Resolution 11-16, SPC adopted the 2017-2020
TIP.

APPENDIX A
Identification of Exempt and Regionally Significant Projects
Included in the 2017-2020 TIP
Project Exempt Codes and Classification Codes
A–1
The EPA Transportation Conformity Rule (40 CFR Part 93) cites a number of project types
which may be excluded from the regional emissions analysis required to determine conformity.
Because of their nature, the exempt projects will not affect the outcome of regional emissions
analysis, nor will they add substance to the analysis.
A standardized system of codes was developed by Pennsylvania’s MPOs and PennDOT to
document a project’s exempt status and to classify regionally significant projects. The exempt
project types are listed in the Transportation Conformity Rule (40 CFR 93 Section 126 Tables 2
and 3).
The following pages contain a one-line summary of every project included in SPC’s 2017-2020
TIP. Up to two codes appear for each project under the Exempt Codes heading. The code on the
left is the project’s exempt code. The code on the right is the project’s classification status code.
The projects for which no codes appear are the non-exempt, regionally significant TIP projects
which were assessed for this conformity determination. These projects are described more fully
in the 2017-2020 TIP. They are also listed in Figure 1 along with the non-exempt, regionally
significant projects that appear on the 2040 Long Range Plan. The exempt codes and project
classification codes are defined on pages A–2 and A–3.

The effectiveness of a particular TDM measure when applied through employersdepends on the degree to which employers actually implement the measure.Generally, this is determined by the legal/regulatory requirement imposed on employers. As might be expected, the imposition of a requirement not only affects the number of employers who participate, but the spirit or quality with which the program measure is implemented.
The TDM model reflects this relationship through the Employer ParticipationRate. This Rate is defined as the percentage of employers in the study area who would be expected to offer the particular measure under differentlegal/regulatory conditions. There are different participation rates for each typeof action.
You are provided with 6 Employer Participation Rate options:
Level 1: No participation ( i. e., 0% ).
Level 2: Voluntary participation, meaning that there is no legal reguirement compelling participation ( i. e., it is up to the employer's self interest).
Level 3: New Mandatory participation, meaning that there is a legal requirement compelling participation on the particular measure, but that requirement applies only to those employers who enter the local employment base between now or the date of enactment of their requirement, and the study forecast year.
Level 4: Full Mandatory participation, meaning that the legal requirement applies to all employment, new and existing.
Level 5: Maximum participation, which assumes the theoretically unobtainable 100% involvement of all employers.
Level 6: A blank column which is available for you to test your own design, should you be examining a special form of ordinance, or you expect a different pattern of participation from the default values provided.
