Abstract
An air quality maintenance analysis of SO2 and TSP concentration was conducted for the New Jersey - New York and Mid-Hudson AQMA's. The year 1975 was used as the base and projections were made to 1980, 1985, and 2000. An emissions inventory created under a previous contract was reviewed and updated using best available data. Improvements were made in the point source inventory, county level area source inventories, and subcounty allocation procedures. An improved version of the AQDM model was validated and then used to predict annual regional air quality levels for each year. The results indicated that annual primary SO2 and TSP standards could be exceeded in the South Bronx by 2000. TSP levels throughout much of northeastern New Jersey and New York City exceed the secondary TSP annual guidelines.
