Units of measurement
a) Air emission from traffic can be calculated by the
use of emission factors usually expressed as
emission in g/KW-hr or as a percentage of fuel used.
b) Where numerical values are stated in relation to
mobile source air emission standards the units are
also present, these may vary according to the
parameter referenced.
c) Where an individual substance is prohibited the
concentration limit may be specified as undetectable
or 0. In cases where there is no provision within the
standard, at this time, for a particular parameter the
limit may be specified as N/A.
