Abstract
The addendum provides additional information regarding the performance of four rural air quality simulation models using SO2 air quality and a modelers data base assembled for the Muskingum River Power Plant. The report contains numerous tabulations of each model's performance in terms of statistical measures recommended by the AMS. The four models evaluated included MPTER (EPA), PPSP (Martin Marietta Corp), MPSDM (ERT) and TEM-8A (Texas Air Control Board). Results from the evaluation were similar to those obtained for Clifty Creek, i.e., the models as a group tend to overpredict 1-hour averages, overpredict to a lesser extent 3-hour averages, and slightly underpredict 24-hour average concentrations.
