Forklifts Forklifts are used to handle various types of cargo at both container and non-container terminals.

Rubber-tired gantry cranes Also known at RTGs, these cranes move containers to and from container stacks.

Side Handlers Side handlers in general, move and stack the empty containers within a terminal. They are often also referred to as side picks or side loaders.

Sweepers Sweepers are vehicles with attached brushes underneath that sweep the ground and pick up dirt and debris.

Port of Long Beach 91 July 2012

Top handlers Top handlers move, stack and load containers using an overhead telescopic boom. They can be used in place of or in conjunction with RTGs to lift heavy containers within a terminal.

Yard tractors Also known as yard hostlers or utility tractor rigs (UTRs), yard tractors are designed to move cargo containers on a terminal.

Figure 4.1 presents the distribution of the 1,160 pieces of CHE inventoried at the Port in 2011.

4.3 Data and Information Acquisition For each terminal, maintenance and/or CHE operating staff were contacted either in person or by e-mail or telephone to obtain equipment count and activity information on the CHE specific to their terminal’s operation for the 2011 calendar year. The specific information requested is listed below:

Equipment type Equipment identification number Equipment make and model Engine make and model Rated horsepower (or kilowatts) Equipment and engine model year Type of fuel used (ULSD, gasoline or propane) Electric equipment Annual hours of operation (some terminals use hour meters) Installed Emissions reduction technologies On-road engine installed New equipment purchased Equipment retired or removed from service

It should be noted that not all information requested is readily available, and when there are data gaps, averages are used as defaults for the specific data needed to estimate emissions, such as engine power, activity hours, and model year. Section 4.4 lists the averages by equipment type used for missing data. 4.4 Operational Profiles Table 4.1 summarizes the CHE data collected from the terminals for the 2011 calendar year. The average values shown in the following tables are population weighted, meaning that the values have been calculated by summing the values related to each individual piece of equipment (for which information is available) and dividing the sum by the number of pieces of equipment. These averages specific to CHE type and engine type have been used as defaults for equipment with missing information.

The characteristics of the CHE engines at the Port’s container terminals are summarized in Table 4.3. It should be noted that California United Terminals, a container terminal operator, ceased operations at the Port at the end of 2010. Therefore, the overall equipment count for the Port in 2011 is less than 2010.

4.5 Emissions Estimation Methodology The emissions calculation methodology used to estimate the CHE emissions is consistent with CARB’s latest methodology for estimating emissions from CHE32. The basic equation used to estimate CHE emissions is as follows.

Equation 4.1 = × × × × × Where:

E = emissions, grams/year Power = rated power of the engine, hp or kW Activity = equipment’s engine activity, hr/year LF = load factor (ratio of average load used during normal operations as compared to full load at maximum rated horsepower), dimensionless EF = emission factor, grams of pollutant per unit of work, g/hp-hr or g/kW-hr FCF = fuel correction factor to reflect changes in fuel properties that have occurred over time, dimensionless CF = control factor to reflect changes in emissions due to installation of emission reduction technologies not originally reflected in the emission factors, dimensionless

32 CARB, Appendix B: Emission Estimation Methodology for Cargo Handling Equipment Operating at Ports and Intermodal Rail Yards in California.

2011 Air Emissions Inventory

Port of Long Beach 101 July 2012

The emission factor is a function of the zero-hour emission rate by fuel type (diesel, propane or liquefied natural gas), by CHE engine type (off-road or on-road), for the CHE engine model year (in the absence of any malfunction or tampering of engine components that can change emissions), deterioration rate, and cumulative hours. The deterioration rate reflects the fact that the engine’s zero-hour emission rates change as the equipment is used, due to wear of various engine parts or reduced efficiency of emission control devices. The cumulative hours reflects the CHE engine’s total operating hours. The emission factor is calculated as:

Equation 4.2 = +( × )Where:

ZH = zero-hour emission rate by fuel type by CHE engine type for a given horsepower category and model year, g/hp-hr or g/kW-hr DR = deterioration rate (rate of change of emissions as a function of CHE engine age), g/hp-hr2 or g/kW-hr2 Cumulative hours = number of hours the CHE engine has been in use and calculated as annual operating hours times age of the CHE engine, hours

4.5.1 Emission Factors In this inventory, the ZH emission rates and DR for cargo handling equipment were updated from the last inventory (2010 EI) to be consistent with CARB’s latest emissions calculations methodology and emission rates. CARB’s latest ZH and DR are consistent with OFFROAD 2007. Please refer to Appendix D for a full list of the ZH and DR used. In this emissions inventory, the following revisions are incorporated: Instead of estimating deterioration rates based on the useful life of the equipment,

deterioration rates provided by CARB are based on average useful life of engines based on engine size (in horsepower).

Emission increases due to the deterioration rate are capped at cumulative hours of 12,000 hours for diesel engines. In other words, once the engine accrues 12,000 hours, there is no increase in emissions.

The ZH and DR are a function of fuel type, model year, and horsepower group as defined in the OFFROAD model. The horsepower groups by which the ZH and DR are categorized are aligned with EPA’s regulations.

ZH and DR vary by engine horsepower and model year to reflect the fact that depending upon the size of the engines, different engine technologies and emission standards are applicable. ZH and DR by horsepower and engine year were used for:

diesel engines certified to off-road diesel engine emission standards diesel engines certified to on-road diesel emission standards gasoline and propane fueled engines certified to large spark ignited engine emission

standards

4.5.2 Load Factors and Fuel Correction Factors A load factor is defined as the ratio of average power used by the CHE engine during normal operation to its maximum rated power. It accounts for the fact that engines are not used at their maximum horsepower rating continually during normal operation. Load factors for CHE are primarily obtained from CARBs CHE methodology document referenced earlier in section 4.5; however, the load factors for RTG cranes and yard tractors were revised based on joint studies33 conducted by the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles in consultation with CARB. Specifically, the yard tractor load factor of 39% has been used since the 2006 EI report and the 20% load factor for RTG cranes has been used since the 2008 EI. Table 4.11 lists the load factors for the CHE.

Table 4.11: CHE Engine Load Factors

Port Equipment Load FactorRTG crane 0.20 Crane 0.43 Excavator 0.57 Forklift 0.30 Top handler, side pick, reach stacker 0.59 Truck, other with off-road engine 0.51 Truck, other with on-road engine 0.51 Sweeper 0.68 Loader, backhoe 0.55 Yard tractor with off-road engine 0.39 Yard tractor with on-road engine 0.39

In 1993, CARB implemented the Low Sulfur Diesel Fuel Rule which ultimately limits the sulfur content of diesel fuel marketed in California to 15 parts per million; this fuel is known as ULSD fuel34. Table 4.12, obtained from the CARB CHE methodology document, lists the FCF for ULSD fuel. The FCFs account for differences in the properties of CARB certified fuels compared to those of previously available fuels. The ZH emission rates are based on the diesel fuel in use at the time these factors were developed and are adjusted by the following fuel correction factors to reflect the characteristics of ULSD. The FCF for SOx reflects the change from diesel fuel with a sulfur content of 140 ppm to the 15 ppm ULSD.

4.5.3 CHE Emissions Reduction Technologies and Control Factors The 2011 CHE inventory includes 222 pieces of equipment with diesel oxidation catalysts (DOC) and 324 yard tractors equipped with on-road certified engines. In addition, 96 pieces of CHE used oxygenated diesel fuel (O2 DieselTM) in 2011, and all other diesel powered CHE used ULSD. Table 4.13 is a summary of the emission reduction technologies used on diesel-powered equipment. It should be noted that some equipment utilized more than one emission reduction technology. For example, CHE using oxygenated diesel may also be equipped with on-road engines or DOCs. The majority of the emission reduction initiatives were undertaken by container terminals either voluntarily or in order to meet requirements of CARB’s Mobile Cargo Handling Equipment at Ports and Intermodal Rail Yards regulation adopted by its board in 200535. As noted previously, container terminals account for the 79% of CHE operated at the Port. Other emission control technologies used on the Port’s CHE include diesel particulate filters (DPF) and Vycon’s REGEN flywheel system (Vycon).

As shown in Table 4.15, the control factor is determined by subtracting the emission reduction percentage associated with the control technology (converted to decimal form) from 1.0. For example, a technology that achieves an emissions reduction of 70%, or 0.70, would have a control factor of 0.3 (1.0 – 0.7 = 0.3), while a technology that increases emissions by 10% (or -0.10) would have a control factor of 1.10. A negative number represents an increase in emissions.

4.5.4 Improvements to Methodology from Previous Years As discussed in Section 4.5.1, to be consistent with the CARB methodology for estimating emissions from CHE, the methodology to calculate emission deterioration rates was changed in this 2011 EI. The ZH emission rates and DR for cargo handling equipment were updated to be consistent with CARB’s latest emissions calculations methodology and emission rates used to estimate CHE emissions. In addition, the cumulative hours for diesel equipment were capped at 12,000 hours.
