Air emissions inventory guidance document for stationary sources at Air Force installations. Final report, December 1997--April 99

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:678913
This report serves as a guidance document for the preparation of stationary source air emissions inventories at US Air Force installations. Air emissions inventories are prepared at Air Force installations to comply with Federal, State, and local air quality regulatory requirements. Inventories are also used in the implementation of various environmental programs, including pollution prevention opportunities, emissions trading, risk assessments, and environmental auditing. In the past, inventories have been prepared at Air Force installations using a wide variety of different procedures and formats. The purpose of this document is to provide a uniform and logical approach for preparing these inventories. This approach will enhance the Air Force`s ability to utilize inventory data, as well as eliminate many of the common errors typically found in air emissions inventories. The report provides recommended methodologies for calculating both actual and potential emissions from the most common types of stationary sources (emission units/processes) found at Air Force installations. The report also contains the latest Environmental Protection Agency emission factors associated with these source types. The pollutants addressed in this report include the criteria pollutants, hazardous air pollutants, and ozone-depleting substances.
