  7. French perspectives on air pollution Extendedregulationcoveringemission sources • At international level: French involvement in Conventions and Protocols • Convention on Long Range Transport of Atmospheric Pollutants with its protocols : Gothenburg, Aarhus (heavy metals and POP) • Rio Convention: Kyoto Protocol • At European level: all EU directives translated in the French Legislation • EU Directives on air quality • EU Directive on emission ceiling • Sectoral Directives on Large Combustion plants, waste treatment, solvents, • Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control Directive, now the Industrial Emissions Directive • EU Directive on mobile sources (EURO I to EURO VI) (Road traffic and off road sources) • Directives related to abatement of GHG, energy efficiency, renewable energy... • All these directives translated in the French legislation Development of the co-operation within the LRTAP Convention – St Petersburg 17 - 18 April 2012 17 April 2012 7

  8. French perspectives on air pollution Extendedregulationcoveringemission sources • At national level: a set of legislative acts for fixed and mobile sources • Classified installations for the protection of environment, permit based on the use of BAT, • Sectoral legislative acts such as for combustion installations (all size concerned from 2 MW), cement, glass, waste treatment, industrial activities,... • Grenelle I and II acts defining objectives for improving environment • Particulate matter plan reinforcing measures for PM reduction, • National environment and health plan, focussing on PAH, POP, Chlorinated organic compounds, benzene... • At local level • Local authority acts implementing Emission Limit Values for classified installations • Regional Scheme for Air, Climate, Energy (SRCAE in French, RSCAE in English) • Atmosphere Protection Plan (PPA in French, APP in English); application at the local level of the Particulate matter plan, • ...

  9. French perspectives on air pollution Content of the presentation • Air quality problems encountered Development of the co-operation within the LRTAP Convention – St Petersburg 17 - 18 April 2012 17 April 2012 9

  10. National perspectives on air pollution Air qualityproblemsstillexisting : Example PM10 Situation of monitoring sites according to the PM10 daily mean value (50 µg/m3 - not more than 35 days with exceedance per year) Situation in 2010 Number of days with exceedance of the daily mean value (50 µg/m3) No exceedance (8) Between 1 and 30 (312) Between 31 and 35 (7) More than 35 (31) Development of the co-operation within the LRTAP Convention – St Petersburg 17 - 18 April 2012 17 April 2012 10

  11. National perspectives on air pollution Air qualityproblemsstillexisting : Example PM10 Zoom in the Rhône-Alpes region : problems in Alpine Valleys as serious as in urban areas PM10 – number of days with a daily mean value higher than 50 µg/m3 Number of days with exceedance of the daily mean value 35 Development of the co-operation within the LRTAP Convention – St Petersburg 17 - 18 April 2012 17 April 2012 11

  12. National perspectives on air pollution Air qualityproblemsstillexisting : Example NO2 Situation of monitoring sites according to the NO2 annual mean value (40 µg/m3) Situation in 2010 Annual mean value Less than 30 µg/m3 (327) Between 30 and 40 (70) More than 40 (50) Development of the co-operation within the LRTAP Convention – St Petersburg 17 - 18 April 2012 17 April 2012 12

  14. National perspectives on air pollution Sensitive Zones for Air Qualitywithreinforcement of prescriptions Sensitive zones for air quality A zone with exceedances of limit values or risk of exceedance (based on monitoring, on regional models and national model PREV’AIR) In these zones, reinforcement of prescriptions taking into account both climate and air pollution objectives Measures defined at the local level, based on local assessment and modelling studies Development of the co-operation within the LRTAP Convention – St Petersburg 17 - 18 April 2012 17 April 2012 14

  15. National perspectives on air pollution Strategy: reinforced national and local measures PLANS Particulate matter plan (PP in French, PMP in English) Regional Scheme Climate Air Energy (SRCAE in French, RSCAE in English) Atmosphere Protection Plan (PPA in French, APP in English) Zone for Priority Action for Air (ZAPA in french, ZPAA in English) • National level • Regional level • Local level Particulate matter plan SRCAE SCRAE PPA ZAPA Development of the co-operation within the LRTAP Convention – St Petersburg 17 - 18 April 2012 17 April 2012 15

  16. National perspectives on air pollution Strategy: reinforced national and local measures PLANS • Particulate matter plan • Set up of measures in domestic sector (wood combustion), transports, agriculture, industry • Non technical and technical measures promoted (such as optimisation of the use of incentives for wood domestic appliances) • Target reduction of PM2.5 emissions by 30 % in 2015 • Limit value not to be exceeded in 2015 for PM 2,5: 25 µg/m3 • National level • Regional level • Local level Particulate matter plan SRCAE PPA ZAPA Development of the co-operation within the LRTAP Convention – St Petersburg 17 - 18 April 2012 17 April 2012 16

  21. French perspectives on air pollution Conclusions • Reinforcement of national and local measures to improve air quality • Effort sharing among sectors • Combination of actions, both technical and non technical.... • National commitment for a reduction of pollutant emissions in the 2020 compared to 2005 from –4 to – 55 % according to pollutants (Gothenburg Protocol in revision) : • SO2 : - 55 % / 2005 • NOx : - 50 % / 2005 • COVNM : - 43 % / 2005 • PM2.5 : - 27 % / 2005 • NH3 : - 4 % / 2005 Development of the co-operation within the LRTAP Convention – St Petersburg 17 - 18 April 2012 17 April 2012 21
