of protective coatings, metal cleaning and degreasing, dry cleaning, and printing. Based on the assumption that 100 percent of the solvents used ultimately reach the atmosphere, total solvent emissions are approximately 24,000 tons per year, or approximately 7 percent of the hydrocarbons emitted in the Study area.

Evaporation of gasoline from stationary sources was also included in this category. Bulk storage tanks predominately have floating roofs, however, fixedroof storage accounts for evaporation of over 7,000 tons per year. Other gasoline evaporation amounts to approximately 5,000 tons per year.

The emission factors in this report were prepared after a thorough investigation of previous work by personnel of the Technical Assistance Branch, Division of Air Pollution. At the time of publication these factors are the best available for use in air pollution emission inventories. As technical advances are made in this area, these factors may in time become obsolete. Before these factors are used for other studies, careful attention should be paid to developments in the field to determine whether the emission factors have been up-dated.

Emission factors utilized in the Interstate Air Pollution Study are listed in Tables A-1 through A-17. The references cited are given at the end of the Appendix.
