               egories from 3,073 counties In the U.S.
               and the 10 Canadian provinces. Eleven
               pollutant species are included  in the
               annual Inventory, and the emissions data
               have been disaggregated into an addi-
               tional 49 species classes for use In
               modeling applications. Emissions of SO2,
               NO., and VOC included in the inventory
               are*27.2,22.6, and 24.5 million tons/year,
               respectively. Summaries of emissions
               data are presented at various levels of

Introduction
  The 1985 NAPAP Emissions Inventory
(Version 2)  has been developed  by the
NAPAP Task Group on Emissions  and
Controls. It is a second generation inventory
of emissions and facility data covering the
U.S. and Canada. The first detailed annual
and modelers' inventories were developed
by NAPAP to represent emissions from the
base year 1980. The 1980 inventory de-
velopment effort led to the identification of
several methodological improvements that
were incorporated into the 1985 effort. The
1985 NAPAP Emissions Inventory (Version
1) was completed in November 1988. The
Version 1 inventory included only anthro-
pogenic emissions data for the U.S. and
was used to develop and test software to
convert the data into formats required by
regional atmospheric models. This report
documents the development of the 1985
(Version 2) inventory and summarizes the
emissions data included in the inventory.
  The emissions inventory was developed
in two phases. Phase 1 involved data col-
lection and  quality  assurance of  source
characteristics and emissions totals on an
annual basis. The annual inventory has
been designated the 1985 NAPAP Emis-
sions Inventory  (Version  2). Phase 2 in-
volved the generation of a modelers' in-
ventory that was based on statistical repre-
sentations of the spatial and temporal distri-
bution of annual emissions and on repre-
sentative chemical and physical speciation
profiles for particular source types.  The
geographic coverage of the inventory ex-
                                                               Printed on Recycled Paper

tends over the contiguous 48 states, the
District of Columbia, and the 10 Canadian
provinces.

Annual Emissions Inventory
  The annual point and area source emis-
sions data forthe U.S. werecollected through
the existing EPA emissions inventory data
system known as the Matronal Emissions
Data  System (NEDS). Annual emissions
estimates for natural  sources of alkaline
particulates for the  U.S. were developed
primarily for application to the NAPAP in-
ventory development. Environment Canada
provided estimates of annual emissions for
Canadian sources. The total emissions for
the 11 pollutant groups included in the an-
nual inventory are presented in Table 1.
  The annual inventory was developed to
provide  information for  assessing acid
deposition problems. The annual inventory
provides a data base that can be used to
determine the relative contributions of acid
deposition precursor emissions from vari-
ous industries and activities within various
geopolitical regions.  The combined U.S.
and Canadian point source  inventory in-
cludes positive emissions for 9,175 plants
encompassing 66,308 emission points and
77,852 process-level emissions  records.
Area source emissions are reported for 97
emissions categories forthe 3,073 counties
in the U.S. and the District of Columbia and
for 129 emissions categories in  10 Cana-
dian provinces. Particulate emissions are
reported for unpaved roads and wind  ero-
sion in the U.S. and Canada and for dust
devils in the U.S.

                            source-receptor relationships. RADM, an
                            event-specific analysis tool, requires daily
                            inputs of meteorological and emissions data
                            to simulate specific deposition events. The
                            modelers' inventory was constructed to
                            represent atypical weekday, Saturday, and
                            Sunday for each of the four seasons, giving
                            atotal of 12 temporal scenarios. Each of the
                            12 scenarios is resolved to a regular grid
                            pattern defined by dimensions of 1/6° lati-
                            tude and  1/4° longitude, that covers  the
                            entire contiguous U.S. and Canada to the
                            border  between the Canadian provinces
                            and the northern  territories  at 60° north
                            latitude.
                              The  annual emissions  estimates were
                            further  resolved into species or  species
                            classes to provide the level of  species
                            resolution required to simulate the chemical
                            processes of interest. The resulting model-
                            ers' inventory includes emissions estimates
                            for 49 chemical species and particulate size
                            classes in addition to the  10 species in-
                            cluded  in the annual inventory. The 59 spe-
                            cies included in the modelers' inventory are
                            listed in Table 2.

                                            The distribution of SO2, NO,, VOC, and
                                          TSP  emissions  among point and area
                                          sources, by country, is shown in Figure 1.
                                          Emissions of SO2 result primarily from point
                                          sources; NOx emissbns are nearly evenly
                                          split between point and area sources; and
                                          VOC emissions result primarily from area
                                          sources. Natural sources of particulate rep-
                                          resent the bulk of the TSP emissions.
                                            The spatial distribution of the annual SO2
                                          emissions is represented in  Figure 2. The
                                          grid scale represented on these maps is 1°
                                          longitude by 2/3° latitude. Thus, these grids
                                          represent emissbns sums for 16 contigu-
                                          ous inventory grid cells. The SO2 emissions
                                          map shows that SO  emissions result from
                                          a small number of large sources concen-
                                          trated in a relatively few locations. Similar
                                          maps for the  other annual  pollutants  are
                                          shown in the report. SO2 is shown here as
                                          an example. The NO^ and VOC emissions
                                          are more evenly distributed than SO2 as a
                                          result of the importance of area sources on
                                          emissions of those pollutants.

  The distribution of the emissions of SO2,
NOx,  and VOC is represented  for major
source category groupings by country in
Table 3. The SO2 emissions result primarily
from  utilities, industrial combustion,  and
smelters (included in the  industrial/manu-
facturing process category) in both coun-
tries.  NO emissions result primarily from
the utilities, industrial combustion,  and
transportation sectors, and VOC emissions
result primarily from transportation and sol-
vent use (included in the "other" category).

Quality Assurance and Quality
Control
  Quality assurance  and quality control
activities (QA/QC) were major efforts for
both the annual and modelers' inventories.
The annual inventory was developed
through a cooperative effort involving EPA,
Environment Canada, and state and  pro-
vincial governments. Early in the inventory
planning, a decision was  made to involve
the states and provinces to the maximum
extent possible. The 1985 NAPAP inven-
tory was the first air emissions inventory to
be developed with significant and repeated
input from local agencies. Thus, the 1985
NAPAP Emissions Inventory (Version 2) is
considered the  most complete and accu-
rate international inventory of air pollutants
ever assembled.
  Specific QA/QC procedures applied to
the annual inventory included complete-
ness  checks, range checks, a separate
analysis of utility emissions data, an emis-
sions confirmation by the  facilities for the
largest emitters, and identification of miss-
ing values for a  list of priority data items. A
separate inventory of utility  source emis-
sions and operating data known as the
National Utility Reference  File (NURF) was
used  as'an independent  check of utility
emissions for the U.S.
  The annual inventory  was processed
through the Flexible Regional Emissions
Data System (FREDS), the series of com-
puter programs that apply spatial, temporal,
and species allocation factors to the annual
data.  During the inventory  development
effort, a comprehensive QA/QC program
was performed on the FREDS code and the
FREDS supporting files. The emissions data
were  summed after each step of FREDS
processing to ensure that emissions were
neither gained nor lost during the allocation
process.
  A complete list of the  products of this
program in written and magnetic forms is
included with the report ordering information
at the end of this Summary.
