Tire Industry Project (TIP) • Eleven global tire companies representing 70% of tires produced

Tire Industry Project (TIP) • Eleven global tire companies representing 70% of tires produced worldwide o Three co-chair companies: Bridgestone, Goodyear, Michelin o Technical support provided by Chem. Risk, LLC, scientific consulting firm. o Project management by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development Goal : Anticipate the potential long term environmental and health issues relating to tire materials and Tire & Road Wear Particles that could impact the tire industry globally 2

Background • Contribution to ambient PM 10 from TRWP was found to be negligible

Background • Contribution to ambient PM 10 from TRWP was found to be negligible (<1% on average) • Public authorities concerns are now more and more focused on PM 2. 5 rather than on PM 10 therefore a study was designed to measure TRWP in the PM 2. 5 fraction of ambient air 3

Global PM 2. 5 Sampling Program • Objective: Quantify TRWP in ambient PM 2.

Global PM 2. 5 Sampling Program • Objective: Quantify TRWP in ambient PM 2. 5 to understand contribution to total PM 2. 5 and variability. • Status: Sampling in 2 of the 3 cities is complete (Los Angeles and Tokyo) and study in London is underway. • Next Steps: Finish the sampling in London and analyze the samples. 4

Sample Results for Greater Los Angeles • Overview - Los Angeles: – Sampling was

Sample Results for Greater Los Angeles • Overview - Los Angeles: – Sampling was conducted from July 15 - 23, 2014. – Six locations were established • • • LA-1: Pico Rivera LA-2: Compton LA-3: Anaheim LA-4: Exposition Park LA-5: Long Beach LA-6: Mira Loma Expo park④ ③Anaheim ①Pico Rivera ②Compton ⑥Mira Loma ⑤Long Beach http: //www. mapquest. com/us/ca/los-angeles – TRWP was consistently detected in the samples from LA-1, but not the other locations. – TRWP ranged from 0. 19 – 1. 3% of total PM 2. 5 at LA-1. 5

Sample Results for Greater Tokyo • Overview - Greater Tokyo – Sampling was conducted

Sample Results for Greater Tokyo • Overview - Greater Tokyo – Sampling was conducted from July 15 - 23, 2014. – Four locations were established • Site A: Kawasaki city, Kanagawa Pref. (PM 2. 5 and PM 10) • Site B: Setagaya ward, Tokyo, Ring road No. 8, (PM 2. 5 and PM 10) • Site C: Machida city, Tokyo, Suburban way (PM 2. 5) • Site D: Shinagawa ward, Tokyo, Route 15 (PM 2. 5) – Total PM 2. 5 was lower than expected and ranged from 1015 ug/m 3 ④Machida ②Setagaya ③Shinagawa ①Kawasaki http: //www. mapquest. com/maps? city=Tokyo&country =JP 7
