7-22 Air Dispersion Modeling Report

AERMOD Receptors

All model input files for AERMOD contain discrete boundary line receptors that are consistent with the Figure 6, but not consistent with Figures 2, 4, and 5.  In addition, it is unknown whether this set of discrete receptor locations is meant to represent the proposed Property Line or Fence Line which is inconsistently represented (as noted above).  Please explain/clarify.

RESPONSE 7-22

 

CREC’s proposed property line has changed since the air modeling report was submitted to RIDEM as the project design and layout have been optimized to minimize impacts.  The attached Site Arrangement figure shows the revised proposed facility property line which has been submitted to and is currently under review by the Town of Burrillville Planning Board.

 

The property line changes will not impact the results of the air modeling results submitted to RIDEM because the modeled impact values presented in the modeling summary tables, which are the values required to demonstrate compliance, were at receptors located beyond both the original and the revised facility property lines.
