Calculation Methods for Criteria Air Pollutant Emission Inventories
Abstract:
This report serves as a guidance manual for Bioenvironmental Engineering personnel or other, responsible environmentally-related office in the development of installation-level criteria air pollutant emission inventories. Emission inventories are used to assess and document compliance with federal, state, and local environmental statutes and regulations and can serve as a useful pollution management tool. This report may be used in a stand- alone fashion or in conjunction with an Air Staff-approved emissions software database management program tailored for the Air Force community. Source- specific emissions software, available through the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for some sources such as motor vehicles and fuel storage tanks, may also be used to assist in calculating and managing emissions data.
