1 MSc Gordana Đukanović Senior Advisor I The 16th EIONET workshop on air quality assessment and management Bordeaux October 2011

2 Methodology followed in Montenegro to designate the air quality management zones 2

3 Within the program "Cooperation in the field of environmental protection" between the Italian Ministry of Environment, Land and Sea and the Montenegrin Ministry of Sustainable Development and Tourism, the Italian company Techne Consulting s.r.l. provided technical support to the Montenegrin Environmental Protection Agency for setting up of the air pollutants emission inventory at national and local level, for Results of the inventory have been used for assessment of pollution levels and for establishing of the air quality zones throughout Montenegro. 3

4 Legislative references The analysis of the actual situation finalized to the establishment of the air quality zones has been done according to the provisions of: Directive 2008/50/EC related to SO 2, NO x, PM 10, PM 2,5, CO, benzene, Pb, Ozone Directive 2004/107/EC related to Heavy Metals (As, Cd, Ni, Hg) and PAH 4

5 Preliminary assessment - methodology AQ preliminary assessment has been realized according to the provisions established by EU legislation All available data and information have been used, in particular: Information on the territory of Montenegro Emissions inventory results Air quality modeling results Available air quality data 5

6 Emissions sources Emissions sources - CO Emissions sources - NO x Emissions sources PM Total CO emissions (metric tons) Point emissions Total NOx emissions (metric tons) Point emissions Total PM10 emissions (metric tons) Point emissions Linear emissions Linear emissions Linear emissions Fugitive emissions Fugitive emissions ,8-2,9 0-2,8 Fugitive emissions Emissions sources - SO x Total SOx emissions (metric tons) Point emissions Linear emissions Fugitive emissions The map shows the location of the main point and line sources over the whole territory of Montenegro 6

7 Zones proposal 7

8 LEGISLATION Law on air protection (2010) Regulation on types of pollutants, limit values and other air quality standards (2008) Regulation on air quality monitoring network (2010) Rulebook on air quality monitoring methods (2011) Regulation on limit values of polluting substances in liquid fossil fuels (2010) Regulation on ozone depleting substances and alternative substances (F-gasses) (2011) Regulation on emission limit values from stationary sources (2011)

9 Current situation Map 1 In accordance to Regulation on air quality monitoring network (2010) EPA has started activities for establishing National Air Quality Network. Regulation foresees 7+1 (EMEP) monitoring sites in 3 zones South and North Critical Zones and Maintenance Zone

10 After establishing of complete network situation should be Map 2 10

11 Measured parameters Zone Type of measurement site Pollutants measured for the protection of human health Pollutants measured for the protection of vegetation 1 Maintenance Zone Tivat UB NO 2, PM 10, PM Maintenance Zone Žabljak RB O 3, EMEP 3 North Critical Zone Pljevlja UB SO 2, NO 2, PM 10, PM North Critical Zones Gradina SB O 3, NOx, SO 2, volatile organic 5 South Critical Zones Golubovci SB O 3 compounds (VOC) 6 South Critical Zones Nikšić UB NO 2, SO 2, PM 10, PM 2,5, Cadmium, Arsenic, Nickel, benzo(a)piren, O 3 CO, benzene 7 South Critical Zones Bar UB NO 2, SO 2,PM 10,PM 2,5, Cadmium, Arsenic, Nickel, benzo(a)piren, O 3 CO, benzene 8 South Critical Zones Podgorica UT NO 2, PM 10, CO, benzene, benzo(a)piren, lead Based on monitoring results EPA makes Report on the State of Environment in which AQ monitoring data are presented 11

12 PROGRAM OF MONITORING According to Montenegrin Law on Air Protection EPA proposes AQ monitoring plan to Ministry for Sustainable Development for adoption Monitoring plan is adopted by Government EPA opens a call to accredit institutions for AQ measurements and chooses best institutions, which fulfills foreseen conditions Until now, in Montenegro only CETI has performed AQ measurements in accordance with Directive 2008/50 Equipment used for AQ measurements is regularly calibrated and checked according to QA/QC plan in CETI Monthly and Annual Reports have been sent to EPA 12

13 According to NPI Rulebook on detailed content and method of making information on air quality will be adopted until end of 2011 After setting up National AQ Monitoring Network (7+1 automatic stations), which is minimum number of sites in accordance to Directive, assessment of spatial coverage sufficiency will be done Comprehensive Information system is not establish yet EPA didn t establish on line access to data from automatic stations, but it should be done by the end of the year. Based on monitoring results EPA makes Report on the State of Environment in which AQ monitoring data are presented (National level) 13
