Abstract

The 5-City study embodied two major elements. These are (1) a demonstration of the 'low-cost' application of the Urban Airshed Model (UAM) and, (2) the use of the model to assess peak ozone impacts in several cities (New York, St. Louis, Atlanta, Dallas-Fort Worth and Philadelphia) due to various emissions strategies. The Urban Airshed Model (UAM) is EPA's preferred model for conducting ozone air quality simulation analyses. The project is documented in the Summary Report and a set of 5 topic reports. The Summary Report condenses key material from each report and synthesizes key results and conclusions for the entire study. Reports 1 and 2 address the 'low-cost' testing of the UAM. Reports 3-5 document the results of the emissions strategy analyses. The preliminary overview provides a synopsis of the project structure and principal findings.
