1.0 lntroduction
United States (U.S.) Army Dugway Proving Ground (DPG) Title V Operating Pennit
(TVOP) Number 4500003005 issued by the State of Utah Division of Air Quality (UDAQ),
sets DPG's operating requirements in accordance with Utah Administrative Code and 40
Code of Federal Regulations. TVOP condition 11.8.11.b.3 "Outdoor Test and Training"
requires DPG to submit quarterly reports containing test and training operations which
resulted in the release of criteria and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) into the
atmosphere.
This quarterly outdoor test and training report contains emission calculations based on
releases that occurred during test and training operations conducted throughout the 1st
quarter (OTR) of fiscal year2025 (FY25), October 1,2024, through December 31,2024.
The Quarterly Report is presented in the following sections:
. Section 2 - Test Operations
. Section 3 - Training Operations
o Section 4 - Summary Criteria and Hazardous Air Pollutants
. Section5-References
2.0 Test Operations
This section describes testing operations resulting in the release of criteria pollutants;
particulate matter (PMro/PMz.s), nitrogen oxides (NO'), sulfur oxides (SO,), carbon
monoxide (CO), volatile organic compounds (VOC), lead, and total HAPs into the
atmosphere during 1't QTR FY25. The following information is provided for each test:
. Name and brief description of test operation.
. Purpose of the test operation.
. Start and end dates of test operation.
o Names (common and chemical names) and quantities of each criteria pollutant
and total HAPs released.
2.1 Comet ll Test
The Comet ll test is designed to simulate the failure of a launch vehicle (LV) fueled by liquid
oxygen (LOX) and liquid natural gas (LNG). Simulated LV failures assist in developing safety
standards and characterizing these propellant explosions in a realistic way that represents LV
accidents. This test included one event occurring on November 21, 2024. The name (common
name) and quantity of the materials released during this test operation have been provided in
Table 1.
Table 1: Mateialreleases - Comet llTest
Table 2 below represents emission calculations of releases into the air of criteria pollutants and
HAPs in pounds based on the materials used during the Comet lltest. LNG was converted to its
criteria pollutant and total HAP values using a surrogate for Natural Gas Combustion,
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Air Pollutant (AP)-42, Section '1.4 Emission Factors.
3.0 Training Operations
This section describes training operations resulting in the release of criteria pollutants or
HAPs into the atmosphere during 1st QTR FY25. The following information has been
provided for each training operation:
o Name and brief description of test operation.
. Purpose of the test operation.
. Start and end dates of test operation.
o Names (common and chemical names) and quantities of each criteria pollutant
and total HAPs released.
3.2 Range Training Operations
The DPG Range conducts land training operations to include all activities and operations
associated with the conduct of military training, firing, and target practice under Army
control. Range training events also include DPG Security and Police Divisions. Range
training operations include multiple events occurring October 1,2024, through December
31,2024. Materials released, such as smoke, obscurants, delivery systems, munitions,
and incendiary devices, are listed by name or by designated Department of Defense
ldentification Code (DODIC) number followed by their Department of Defense (DOD)
nomenclature in table 3 below.

The munitions listed in Table 3 were converted to their criteria pollutant and HAP values
using EPA, AP-42 emission factors and EPA's Emission Factors for the Disposal of
Energetic Materials by Open Burn/Open Detonation (OB/OD). lf emission factors were
unavailable a surrogate was used. Table 4 below represents the release of criteria
pollutants and HAPs in pounds during range training operations.
