Recently, there have been a number of questions from stakeholders about LME (Low Mass Emissions) units and the ECMPS Client Tool.
The current version of the Client Tool, which is Beta B SP1, does not contain LME functionality because the LME functionality is currently under development. The design for the LME functionality in the Client Tool is similar to what is currently available in MDC. Users will be able to have the tool generate emissions data within the Client Tool based on user inputs of operating time, fuels combusted, unit load, and (if applicable) long term fuel flow. Similar to MDC, the user inputted data can either be entered through a data entry screen in the Client Tool, or the data can be imported into the Client Tool using a CSV file.
The CSV file format for importing operating data will be essentially the same as the current one. However, there will be some small changes to the data included in the file. As soon as the changes to the CSV file have been finalized, the new format will be made available.
In addition, there are plans for an LME testing session this fall for sources with LME units. The exact time for this testing has not been set, but it is tentatively scheduled to begin some time after the second session of Beta testing ends on November 2nd. If you would like to participate in LME testing of the Client Tool, send an email to Laurie DeSantis.
