Abstract
The report gives results of a study of air pollution area sources and their emissions, their importance as emitters of volatile organic compounds, and sources for which better emission estimation methodologies are needed. Area sources in general and area source solvent categories were prioritized based on annual and seasonal emissions and EPA Regional emission dependencies (i.e., certain categories, such as forest wildfires, were identified as categories in which activity occurs significantly more in one Region that in others and therefore show regional emission dependencies). Factors affecting the variability of each area source category were also identified. Inventory assumptions and seasonal/regional factors were documented and discussed.
