The report presents the results of a study to determine the magnitude of air polluting emissions from marine vessels and marine related activities in the coastal waters and ports of California during calendar year 1976. Major sources of emissions included the operation of marine engines and auxiliary power plants; the transport, handling, storage and transfer of petroleum and petroleum products; and the ballasting and lightering associated with tanker vessel operations. In order to compile the inventory of emissions, the record of activity of every commercial vessel operating in the waters of California was traced and the emissions were calculated for each activity of these vessels. The average daily emissions were - NOx 41.4 tons per day (tpd), CO 8.3 tpd, SO2 79.2 tpd, hydrocarbons 21.5 tpd, and particulates 7.6 tpd. Temporal and spatial data, by activity, with the high and low daily emissions for each port or area, are presented in the report.
