INTRODUCTION
This memorandum provides information regarding a request from Newt Marine Services
to submit an lowa Clean Air Attainment Application Program (ICAAP) application to the
lowa Department of Transportation (IDOT) with sponsorship by the City of Dubuque.
Private entities are eligible to apply to the ICAAP grant program with the support of a
public sponsor.
BACKGROUND
A major focus of the City of Dubuque and its Sustainable Dubuque vision has been to
assure that the principles of Healthy Air and Strong Regional Economy can be
achieved. In the recent past, there have been instances where particulate matter (PM
2.5) emissions have been higher than anticipated. As a result, the City of Dubuque in
partnership with private sector leaders, has worked collaboratively and proactively to
avoid becoming a "non-attainment community, or a community with air pollutants
persistently exceeding EPA standards.
This collaborative work between the City and private sector partners focuses on
reducing emissions to protect public health and to minimize these health risks without
threatening economic growth and opportunity. To this end, the City and its private
sector partners have been vigilant in identifying and supporting funding opportunities
and programs that assist in maintaining EPA regulated standards for attainment in our
community and region.
In August, the City was contacted by Mike Bima, Operations Manager of DJMP Engines
Solutions of Peoria, IL on behalf of Newt Marine Services, requesting that the City act
as the public-sector sponsor, required in the lowa Department of Transportation's lowa
Clean Air Attainment Program grant application. The funds secured through the lowa
Clean Air Attainment Program grant would help to cover the cost of replacing Newt
Marine Towboats with new EPA certified engines that would reduce high particulate
emissions.
DISCUSSION
The lowa Department of Transportation's lowa Clean Air Attainment Program (ICAAP)
is well suited to support the efforts of City of Dubuque and its private sector partners in
maintaining EPA standards for favorable attainment status thereby protecting public
health without negatively impacting the local economy. The City has been successful in
receiving these grants in the past and continues to pursue this funding source for its
transportation projects.
The grant submitted by DJMP Engine Solutions would be matched by Newt Marine
Services and the City would not have any financial obligation to either DJMP Engine
Solutions or Newt Marine Services as spelled out in the attached contracts.
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the Mayor, to cosign the attached resolution and the City Manager to sign the
contract providing sponsorship of the lowa Clean Air Attainment Program grant
submission by DJMP Engine Solutions on behalf of Newt Marine Services.

Quote from Secretary LaHood...
For too long, we've overlooked the economic and environmental benefits that our waterways and
domestic seaports offer as a means of moving freight in this country", said Secretary LaH000', speaking to
transportation professionals at the 7th Annual North American Marine Highways and Logistics
Conference in Baltimore, MD. "Moving goods on the water has many advantages: It reduces air pollution.
It can help reduce gridlock by getting trucks off our busy surface corridors."
Quote(2014)regarding the new Waterways Bill under consideration in the House
Bi115huster, R-Pa., chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, said
in a statement. "This bill also recognizes how essential a healthy maritime transportation
sector is to our economy, our competitiveness and our national security."
Letter of Support from EPA (2014)
See attachment Item 12 from EPA Region 5 Program Manager outlining the situation with Marine HighwayAssets
and the need to repower the old/unregulated Diesel engines.
Focus on PM2.5
MAP-21 puts greater focus on projects and programs that address fine particulate matter(PM2.5). The law requires that a
portion of CMAQ funds provided to PM2.5 nonattainment areas be used for projects that reduce this pollutant.
While lowa does not have a nonattainment area,this EPA comment focuses our attention toward PM 2.5.
Eligibility Requirements... notes from Federal Highway
The primary eligibility criteria for CMAQ funding remain the same under MAP-21. To be eligible,a project must come from
a conforming transportation plan and transportation improvement program (in metropolitan areas).
All CMAQ projects must meet these three eligibility requirements:
•Have a transportation focus.
•Reduce air emissions.
•Be located in or benefit a nonattainment or maintenance area.
CMAQ-Eligible Activities
Under MAP-21,CMAQ funds continue to be available for a wide range of transportation projects, but new language in the act
emphasizes select project types, including electric and natural gas vehicle infrastructure and diesel retrofits. Eligible activities
include (but are not confined to)the following:
•Advanced Truck Stop Electrification Systems
•Alternative Fuel Projects
•Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements
•Diesel Retrofits

Regional Significance
Support Clean Diesel Coalitions: The goals of this grant are in concert with the National EPA Clean Diesel
Programs and MARAD Marine Highway program.
EnvironmentalResults-Outputsand Outcomes
The awarded grant dollars will be used to upgrade one fleeting tug with propulsion and auxiliary engines that meet
EPA Marine Tier 3 emissions levels. This includes the cost ofthe new engines&gears, removal of existing engines,
and required installation material, controls,cooling system modification and labor. The new engines will be
Marine Tier 3 compliant with EPA issued Engine(see Attachment Item 9)and serial number specific emission
information after engines are delivered for installation. Engine Testing,vessel sea trial and sea trial report is
required on all new engines in a vessel and these costs will be included in the execution of work.
Reduce Emissions,improve trensportation e�ciency:
Statistics show the following comparisons in the miles that one gallon of diesel fuel will transport one ton of
freight:
• On-highwaytruck 155miles
• Rail 413 miles
• Barge 576 miles
(Details from National Waterways Council Report:See attachment 4)
Maximize Public Health Benefits:
The public health benefit is typically considered as PM emissions.There is additional greenhouse gas (GHG)
emission of CO2+CO+NOx from diesel engines that may also be considered due to atmospheric ozone depletion.
Using the DEQ's data for PM only,the Health Benefits amount to$6.6 million dollars over a 30 year life of the Tier
3 engines.The GHG reduction amounts to 683,125 Kg/year to reduce the overall carbon footprint of the
company's operation.
High Population Density:
lowa based inland waterway vessels forthis grant operates within high population Dubuque Metro Area.This area
is not indicated bythe EPAto be a non-attainment area for PM2.5.
(See item 7 for Inland Waterway Map)
Disproportionate Quantity of Air Pollution from Diesel Fleets:
The agricultural, petroleum and construction material ports in the Dubuque area create one portion ofthe PM
emission problem for the area. Barge movement of material is the most economical,and leads to a large number
ofvessels involved in this business within the area.
Certified Engine Configuretion:
The existing engines being targeted forthis grant are at or neartheir useful life before overhaul.The propulsion
engines will be repowered with Verified Tier 3 engines.The Auxiliary gen-set will be removed and replaced with
Tier 3 Certified Gen-sets in production bythe OEM since January, 2014.The life of the marine propulsion engines
has been stated at over 30 years,sothe annual fuel savings,emissions reductions,and health benefits have
sustainability from the upgrade for a significant time beyond the grant period.

Conserve Fuel,Sustain Jobs and promote emission technology:
• Decreased fuel consumption benefits national priorities of:
o Decreasing dependence on foreign oil with a reduction of 65,186 gallons diesel fuel per year
o Increasing cost effectiveness of transportation of goods on the inland river waterway system (already
more efficient than rail or on-highway),
o Reducing PM&GHG produced in the engine and em itted out the diesel exhaust
• Utilization of the grant opportunity in job sustainability.
Awarding ofthis grant enables a small business to be in a more securejob position for all employees.
Small businesses benefit from the grant funds and are more likely to stay in business afterwards by
being more competitive. See attachment 6 for testimonials concerning the benefits of upgrade the
marine fleets.
• Accelerates implementation of improved emission technology to improve air quality
o Marine companies receiving grants would not have made these emissions upgrades without the
government stimulus. Engines can be over hauled back to original condition without the upgrade.
o Marine companies would continue to be a player in adding tothe emission problem in the non-
attainment area.
Mitigates Congestion:
Barge movement is most efficient and cleanest environmental impact of freight movement Statistics show the
following comparisons in the miles that one Rallon of diesel fuel will transport one ton of freiRht:
(see attachment 4 Waterways details):
• On-highwaytruck 155miles
• Rail 413 miles
• Barge 576 miles
Enhance Container on Barge(COB)Opportunity:
With the widening of the Panama Canal to allow larger ships access to the Marine Highway connected to the
Mississippi River, lowa and Illinois becomes a major player in increased Economic Activity. The COB story is a
mandate to upgrade the Marine Highway infrastructure and operation in the State.
The following summary is from the Illinois Soybean Association that conducted the study on behalf of Illinois Farmers.
Study:COB Could Benefit Illinois Soy Farmers(Read lowa Also)
A recently completed study funded by the Illinois Soybean Association says that a river container-on-barge(COB)
shuttle program is not only feasible, but it also offers Illinois soybean growers biodiesel opportunities and more
access to international markets.
"With the completion of upgrades to the Panama Canal in 2016,the canal will be able to handle 10,000-TEU
(twenty-foot equivalent unit)vessels,"said Chuck Dillerud, river transportation consultant and author of the COB
transportation operating and business plan study, in an April 9 press release about the study. "Suddenly,the Gulf
Coast—where barges go—becomes far more attractive for containers that would come down the
Illinois/Mississippi River system by COB."
COB programs are currently operating successfully in France, as well as in the Pacific Northwest along the
Columbia River,the association noted.
The study had a number of objectives, including:
• To determine whether it is feasible to use river equipment—towboats and barges—to move empty
containers from the Joliet area hub to Illinois River ports within the state's prime soybean growing areas and move
loaded containers back again.
6
• To determine the feasibility of using river equipment to move loaded containers from the prime soybean
growing areas adjacent to the Illinois River to Gulf Coast container ports for direct loading on ocean container
vessels.
Dillerud said significant volumes of grain are trucked to the Joliet area to be loaded onto containers, which are
then sent by rail to the East and West Coasts. Essentially,the grain is moving tothe containers. Meanwhile, during
2011,only about 100 containers were transported by river from the entire length of the Illinois River and the
Upper Mississippi River above St. Louis.A COB program would change all that, he said.
The study suggests that a COB shuttle program can be feasibly operated between the Joliet area and central Illinois
River ports using dedicated towboats and barges.The minimum scale begins at 200 TEUs per week; he notes that
could be doubled without a corresponding increase in capital equipment,and is scalable to almost any maximum
volume.
"The resulting cost to reposition containers from the intermodal hubs to and from central Illinois growing areas by
barge could be significantly less than repositioning them by truck,"says Dillerud.
Additionally:
• A COB shuttle program operating from Peoria to and from New Orleans and/or Houston using dedicated
towboats and standard jumbo hopper barges can be feasible with a minimum volume of slightly more than 350
TEU (or 350 twenty-foot containers)per month at rates that are less than either shuttle rail or bulk plus container
loading at Gulf of Mexico locations—and competitive with container rail to the West Coast.
• The feasibility of a Gulf COB program like this one also benefits from non-time-sensitive bulk commodity
backhauls, like dry fertilizer or road salt.
• Finally,an organization structure is needed to operate either(or both)ofthese COB programs.The study
suggests developing a shippers association similar to the Midwest Shippers Association, but extending to actually
operating the COB venture.
The Midwest Shippers Association, according to its Web site, is a regional trade association cooperative that serves
to promote marketing,and facilitate shipping of specialty grains from the states of Minnesota, North Dakota,
South Dakota, lowa and Wisconsin.
Biodiesel
A third objective of the Illinois Soybean Association study was to determine the efficacy of fueling river towboats in
the COB program with high-ratio(B80+) biodiesel.
Results show that COB program towboats can,when properly equipped or with modification,operate on high-ratio
biodiesel. Dillerud said he actually expects very few modifications to be needed.
In addition, depending on the status of the blender's credit and renewable fuels credit,towboat biodiesel may be
more competitively priced than No. 2 diesel.The study notes that this fact was not reflected in the feasibility
findings in the previously listed operating models, and could further add to financial benefits of the COB program
as well as for Illinois soybean growers.
"This, as well as the COB program in general, opens the doorto connect Illinois growers to foreign buyer direct
sales—as is the case with the Midwest Shippers Association,"Dillerud concludes. "It will not replace bulk barge
commodity hauling;that will continue. But,the COB program is a feasible approach to get Illinois soybeans tothe
international market and closerto their international customers—and maybe even offer identity-preserved
branding opportunities."
The Illinois Soybean Association (ISA) is the statewide organization for Illinois soybean growers.The farmers on its
board administer soybean check off funds to support research, promotions,and educational programs designed to
increase demand for Illinois soybeans,and administer legislation and membership programs.

PUBLIC SAFETY AND SECURITY—Excerpt from MARAD report to Congress,2011
Use of America's Marine Highway can improve public safety and security via several important
Mechanisms. By shifting freight from trucks on congested highways,the Marine Highway could
lower the exposure of the public to the adverse effects of truck crashes. It is well-suited to the
safe transportation of hazardous materials and reduces the need totransport these materials
through population centers,thereby minimizing the risk tothe public from releases of toxic
cargoes. It also provides potential capacity in times of emergency forthe provision of passenger
transportation and freight service even after other surface movements are disrupted,facilitating
response and recoveryto both natural and manmade disasters.

Dear Mr. Bitting,
The Dubuque Metropolitan Area Transportation Study (DMATS) would like to take this opporiunity
to support the Iowa Clean Air Attainment Program (ICAAP) application by the City of Dubuque to
seek funding to repower Newt Marine Towboats.
This project is consistent with the DMATS 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan. Part of the overall
goal is to protect and enhance the natural environment and support energy conservation and
management. The above project will play a vital role in addressing enhance the natural environment
by reduce emission in the region.

2 Technology and Sustainability Details
All Technolo�ies are Verified or Certified:
None of these upgrades/repowers represent new invention, but are proven technologies built into current
production engines bythe OEM's and the configurations are available as current production meeting EPA Marine
Tier 3 certification requirements. These technologies are much further advanced than the 15—30 year old engines
they are replacing and result in both reduced emissions simultaneously with reduced fuel consumption.
Sustainabilitv ofthe Proiect:
The current owners intend to maintain ownership of these vessels. One of the high impacts on air quality in large
marine industry is the long life ofthesevessels, as compared to buses or on-highwaytrucks. The sustainability of
the emissions reduction for large engines in these applications with major overhauls is well over 30 years by EPA
Guidelines. Marine vessels are a very large investment which compared to buses or on-highwaytrucks.The
amount of emission reduction from unregulated toTier 2 is significant.The critical parameters spelled out in the
EPA Tier 2 regulation have not been required in the past(priorto January 2007). All ofthese parameters are
affected bythis project.The current IMO MARPOLAnnex VI adopted bythe EPA addresses NOx, PM and SOx
requirements that are essentiallythe same as Tier 2. A new Annex VI is now enforced since January, 2010that
closely aligns with the EPA Tier 2 parameters.
Strete�icallv,the�rent tar�ets en�ines that are not under anv Mandated Emission Re�ulation:
This project excludes engines under any existing legal mandate from inclusion in the grant. For example, novessels
with the keel laid after January 01, 2007 will be allowed to receive any grant funds.They are already mandated to
be Tier 3 so there is no reason to pursue these vessels.The vessels considered for this grant funds are not in areas
ofthe inland waterways where air quality other than EPA regulations exist.The current EPA non-attainment areas
have not addressed inland waterway vessels' contribution tothe non-attainment status.The majorthrust ofthe
efforts to clean up the non-attainment areas until recently has been trucks, buses and construction equipment.
The table below indicates the most recent emission regulations mandated bythe EPA.This does not include future
regulations that cannot be enforced at this time by the U.S.Coast Guard.All of these regulations have been
reviewed and understood bythe applicants so as to properly apply grant money outside of current regulations.

5 Company Background for Fleet included in Grant
Newt Marine
Dubuque Barge and Fleeting Services d/b/a Newt Marine has been operating in the tri state area of lowa,Illinois,and Wisconsin
for over SOyears on the Upper Mississippi River. Duringthe earlyyears,Newt Marine was strictly a Fleeting and Lock and
bridge assisting service in the Dubuque,IA and East Dubuque,IL area. Since 2001 Carter Newt current president of Newt
MarinehasexpandedtheboundariesfromFleeting/AssistsServicestolargeroperationsalongtheUpperMississippi. Main
source of revenue for Newt Marine comesfrom the Habitat Rehabilitation and dredging operations along the Mississippi River
in multiple pools. The area of operations currently has vessels and construction equipmentfrom Lynx,Wisconsin to as far
South as East St.Louis,Illinois. We currently operate two vessels on the Missouri River establishing wing damsto provide safer
traveling,commercial and recreational,for boat operators. Newt Marine currently has one dedicated run of sand and rock in
the Rock Island,IL area and still continues to assist larger towing operations through locks and bridges between locks 11 down
to lock 16.
Newt Marine main headquarters is located in Dubuque,IA and currently operates out of two established harbors both being in
East Dubuque,IL. The company employs approximately 90 individualsthat is comprised of residents of Illinois,lowa,Wisconsin,
Nebraska,and Minnesota. The companycurrentlyoperates twenty-sixtug/tow boats. All of the vessels are twin screw with a
variety of different models and styles of engines. The vessel that is being submitted in this application is a 1970 twin screw tug
boat and has been owned by Newt Marine since 1993 previous owner was W inona Marine. This vessel is being utilized as a
traditional tug/tow boat loading and unloading barges for transfer of grain,coal,construction products and other dry products
such as rolled steel and fertilizers. The vessel is designed for a multitude of work to include trip work along the river. Due to
the age of the vessel it is in need of the upgrade in equipment and due tothe location and the environment that it primarily
works in it should make a great candidate for this type of grant. Receiving the upgrade will continue to allow Newt Marnie to
be competitive in the marine market as it will lower maintenance and repair costs,lower overhead expenses and continue to
keepthe same number of employees gainfully employed which supports the local economy of Dubuque,IA)

PEORIA-BASED FIRM HELPS RIVER SHIPPERS MEET NEW EMISSIONS STANDARDS
By TERRY BIBO
of the lou rnal Star
Posted May 06,2012 @ 11:59 PM
BEARDSTOWN —
Kim Logsdon cites several good reasons to replace the old diesel-powered engines at Logsdon Tug Service with cleaner and
more fuel-efficient models.
"I think it's good forthe rural area.I think it's good forthe Peoria area,"the owner of the Beardstown business said. "I think iYs
good for the whole river system."
With more than three decades in the river business,Logsdon said he's a believer in the marine highway.Often overlooked in
the transportation debates,he said,shipping by river is alreadythe most efficient and environmentallysound waytotransport
goods.Replacing old boat engines to meet new federal emission standards by 2015 will make it even more so.
Still,he wouldn't be "re-powering"a second boat next week without help.Withjust five boats and a peakemployment of 22
people,spending$550,000 to upgrade a single boat is a stretch.
"Even forthe bigger companies,it hasto be a tremendousfinancial burden to come up tothese emission standards we're all
going to have to meet," Logsdon said.
Enter D1MP Engine Solutions LLC.
From Chicago to New Orleans,the Peoria-based consultants bring multi-faceted expertise-engineering,marketing,project
management,knowledge of environmental regulations-to the problems/opportunities offered by marine engines.They're
working on a comprehensive plan to upgrade river-wide infrastructure-and create individual plansfor companies like Logsdon
Tug.They back efforts to create a dredger to address siltation problems throughout the marine highway-and seek grants to
make individual projects happen.It's complex,especiallysince so much of the effort istied to multi-yearfederal funding bills
that may or may not come through.
"We're onlyjust scratching the surface here,"said Mike Bima,the"M" in D1MP.
Steve Jaeger,executive director of the Heart of Illinois Regional Port Authority(TransPORT),is a fan.He worked with D1MP on
what eventually became a$400,000 federal grant for Logsdon and others.
"IYs not a freebie,"Jaeger said."IYs a 40 percent match.It makes it possible for these vessels to come into compliance."
W hile it's expensive to switch to cleaner marine engines,compliance is expected to save money-and lives as well.
Brian Urbaszewski,director of Chicago's Respiratory Health Association,pointed to several studies,particularlya long-term
effort bythe National Cancer Institute and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health published in March.It
showed that exposure to diesel exhaust at roughlythe level found in big cities can increase the risk of lung cancer by 50
percent.
"IYs a big deal to replace these engines," Urbaszewski said,noting that they are not only cleaner,but produce fewer CO2
emissions by using lessfuel."I think,ultimately,the economics arethere...the health benefits are a great side benefit to
that."
Bima considersthe cost/benefit ratio one of D1MP's biggest selling points in hunting grantsfor its clients.
"If it comesto investing my money-and I considerthat government money is my money-I would rather invest it in something
that gives me a better return," he said.
And there seems to be a market.
"There is potential forthe federal largesse to be shared with a lot more companiesthan are presently receivingthem,"said
Jaeger. "Most of these towboat owners don't know where to turn.Theyjust know there's new regulation coming."
Logsdon agrees,and he's glad he turned to D1MP.
"If it wasn't for these people,I might add,I would not be doing this second re-powering," he said."It's a big step for a small

Dear East West Gateway CMAQ Transportation Committee:
On behalf of U.S Emironmental Protection Agency's(EPA)Region 5 Midwest Clean Diesel Initiative,I would li ke to express our support for the
Il linois EPA's Port/Marine Diesel Engi ne Repower Project(Project Number 723466)currently bei ng mnsidered for Congestion Mi tigation and Ai r
Quality Improvement Program(CMAQ)funding i n the Metro-East St.Louis area as part of the proposed FY 2017-2020 Transportation
Improvement Program(TIP).
The II linois EPA's sponmred project is a perfect example of the type of CMAQ publ ic/private partnershi ps that are allowed an d enmuraged by
both the EPA and Federal HighwayAdministration and which have been successfully undertaken in several parts of the muntry,indud ing in the
Chicagoarea.
The currentfederal transportationfundingbill(MAP-21)requiresthat25%ofCMAQfunds be usedforfne partide�PMzs)emission reduction
projects if the area is designated as nonattainment for PM�,s. The EPA has designated the St.Louis region as a marginal non-attainment area
under the eight-hour ozone standard and as a non-attainment area with respecttothe PM25 standard;thus,we enmurage East-West
Gateway to prioritize PMzs emissions reductions CMAQ projects as requi red by MAP-21 i n future TIPs.
Direct emissions from diesel engines,especially PM2.5,oxides of nitrogen(NO,),and sulfur oxides(50,),mntribute to health problems. In
addition,NO.mntributestotheformationofozoneandPMthroughchemicalreactions. PMzshasbeenasmciatedwithanincreasedriskof
prematuremortality,increasedhospitaladmissionsforheartandlungdisease,andincreasedrespiratoryrymptoms. Long-termexposureto
mmponents of diesel exhaust,indudingdiesel PM and diesel exhaust organicgases,are likelyto posea lung cancer hazard. Clean diesel
projects targeting direct emissions reductions from diesel engines are generally mst-effective,acmrdi ng to EPA's calculations of health
benefts. Each federal dollar imested in dean diesel projects has generated between$7 and$18 in public health benefts. In addition,Rail and
port/marine projects are especially benefcial becausethey tend to take place in emironmental justice mmmunities,which are disproportion-
atelyimpactedbyhigherlevelsofdieselemissions. TargetingPMzsemissionsreductionsfromdieselenginesintheSt.Louisareaisamst
effective approach to addressi ng ai r qual ity issues in this area.
We know that CMAQfunds are limited and as a region you need to maximizethe effectiveness ofthe federal dollarsyou get in the region. It
shouldnotmatterwhetherfilthydieselenginesbeingdeaneduporreplacedareinprivately-ownedorpublidy-ownedvehides. Whethera
garbagetruck,tug boat,or lommotive is owned by a municipal govemment or a mrporation does not mattertothe members of the public
being forced to breathethe emissions mmingfrom such equipment.
I will also highlightthat this project deserves special mnsideration for exceeding the minimum 20 percent match required for CMAQ projects,
making it an especially wise use of limited federal funds. This project will help reduce air pollution across a broad part of the St.Louis area,an
area already facing a higher than average risk of asthma prevalence as well as greater negative outmmes from asthma epimdes.
To mndude,I would like to reiterate our support not only for the Illinois EPA's Port/Marine Diesel Engine Repower Project(Project Number
723466),but to alm enmurage East-West Gateway to prioritize PMzs emissions reductions for CMAQ projects as required by MAP-21 i n future
TIPs.Thank you for your strong mnsideration of this project proposal.
Sincerely,
