Abstract |
Basically the study consisted of an analysis of all available air pollution data. The main sources of information concerning community problems were personal visits and interviews with local officials. More than 80 percent of the State's population was covered. The air pollution control officer or the health officer, if any, were the preferred officials for interviewing. All manufacturing industries and public utilities in Pennsylvania employing 100 or more persons were contacted by letter to ascertain industrial air pollution control activities in the State. All available air quality data were assembled and tabulated as concisely as possible. Data on local control activities received special emphasis. Certain technical methods were developed. Photographs were obtained to illustrate some of the more severe problems. (Author Modified Abstract) |
