Description:
As part of the Regional Air Pollution Study (RAPS), data for an air pollution emission inventory are summarized for point and area sources in the St. Louis Air Quality Control Region. Data for point sources were collected for criteria and noncriteria pollutants, hydrocarbons, sulfur trioxide, particle size distribution, and heat. For area sources, data were collected on criteria pollutants, hydrocarbons and heat. All the data have been entered into the RAPS Data Bank. Hourly values are available for all point sources; locations are identified by UTM coordinates (zone 15) to within + or - 10 m. Area sources are assigned to a network of 1989 grid squares of variable size. The emission inventory is applicable for the years 1975 and 1976 and complements the RAPS aerometric data.
