Summary and Analysis of the Main Chemical Air Pollutants Emitted bu U.S. Army Materiel Command Sources: 1987-1991

Abstract

The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 mandate new, more complex air pollution regulations. Army installations must evaluate their specific pollution sources to determine the appropriate mix of strategies that will comprise air pollution management programs best suited to specific locations. Required Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) reports already provide a record of Army air pollution sources and release information. This report analyzes TRI reports from Army Materiel Command (AMC) sources related to the release of seven main chemical pollutants from 1987 to 1991. Installations are also ranked by the amount of chemical pollutant released. It is anticipated that this information will help direct the development of a knowledge-based system to help identify Army air pollution source categories and determine appropriate strategies to comply with air pollution regulations.
