Procedures for the preparation of emission inventories for precursors of ozone. Volume 1 (third edition)

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6078408
Procedures are described for compiling emission inventories of precursors of ozone (volatile organic compounds, nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide) for use in less data-intensive models such as the Empirical Kinetic Modeling Approach (EKMA). Such inventories are required for submission of ozone State Implementation Plans (SIPs) for those areas required to revise their plans after December 31, 1987. The basic inventory elements - planning, data collection, emission inventory estimates, reporting - are discussed. Various examples are included to aid the agency in the understanding and use of the document.
