Abstract | A rapid survey was made to outline the sources and emissions of air pollutants. Estimates are provided of total emissions of oxides of sulfur, particulates, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen. The emissions of these pollutants are delineated with respect to source type, season of the year; as well as their geographical distribution within the area. The study area was made up of one Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area which covers 3,080 square miles and included a 1967 population of over one million people. An estimated 1,142,000 tons of the five major pollutants are emitted annually in the Study Area. Breakdowns of this total with respect to specific pollutants are tabulated for these sources: transportation (gasoline, diesel, evaporation, aircraft); stationary fuel combustion (industry, steam-electric, residential); commercial and institutional; solid waste; and industrial process.
