- Summary
- The goal of phase I of the Multistate Atmospheric Power Production Pollution Study (MAP3S) program was to develop and demonstrate an improved, verified capability of numerically simulating the present conditions and potential changes in pollutant concentration, atmospheric behavior and precipitation chemistry that result, or will result, from pollutants released to the atmosphere by large-scale power production processes. The program was divided into ten major tasks. Tasks 1 and 2 of the MAP3S Program Plan were concerned with the quantification of emissions of pollutants from power production and nonpower production sources. These tasks have been continued under MAP3S/RAINE (Regional Acidity of Industrial Emissions). The emissions inventory project has been based on obtaining pertinent data gathered by other agencies (EPA, FPC, state and local governments, etc.), and computerizing, correlating, and updating such data. This report describes the development of the project to date. Topics covered include the acquisition of both emissions and ancillary data, techniques developed for quality assurance and data updating, summaries of the data in the inventory and descriptions of current and future plans in both upgrading and using the inventory.
