To proceed with development of an air management plan that incorporates programs to manage changes in air quality, growth in the number of sources of air pollution, pollution control strategies and other important factors, a comprehensive inventory of existing air emissions is required. Inventories of all major point, mobile and area sources of air emissions in the Lower Mainland was prepared by the GVRD and various consultants in 1987 and 1988 for 1985. The results for the GVRD are summarized in this appendix to establish a baseline for interpreting existing air quality and to form a basis for forecasting the quantity of each pollutant that might be emitted in future years.

This report reviews air quality management initiatives in the Greater Vancouver area over the past two decades, and assesses the contribution that the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment (CCME) draft management plan for nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds (LRTAP 1990) may have to improve GVRD air quality. Air management planning in the Seattle, Portland, San Francisco and Los Angeles airsheds is also outlined.
