Gardner, L

The document is the second volume of a two volume series designed to provide assistance to air pollution control agencies in preparing and maintaining emission inventories for carbon monoxide (CO) and precursors of ozone (O3). Emission inventories provide the foundation for most air quality control programs. The second volume offers technical assistance to those engaged in the planning and development of detailed inventories of VOC, NOx, and CO for use in photochemical air quality simulation models. Such inventories must be resolved both spatially and temporally and must also be speciated into several classes of VOC, NO, and NO2. These inventories are required of the more serious O3 and CO nonattainment areas only.
