The primary concern of this paper is to identify the inputs required for air, water, and solid waste pollution abatement in the United States. Industry-level data on pollution abatement expenditures in 1976 are decomposed into expenditures on various intermediate inputs and on two primary inputs: labor and capitol. The 1971 input-output table is adjusted to reflect the input needs of pollution-abatement technology. This revised direct input coefficients matrix is used to derive the gross output and primary input requirements of the 1971 final bill of goods. 11 references, 1 figure, 1 table
