- Synopsis
- Because the Mobile Source Emissions Factor Model, the primary tool used to estimate automotive emissions in the US, is suspected of being deficient in assessing the effectiveness of various very expensive programs such as the oxygenated fuels, and inspections and maintenance programs, the US Congress asked the Academy to review and evaluate the model. The project did find many discrepancies between the model's prediction and actual measurements, but supports the Environmental Protection Agency's efforts to upgrade it rather than replace it with another. The report is not indexed. Annotation c. Book News, Inc. , Portland, OR (booknews. com)
