The air quality data analyzed in this report came from the National Air Pollution Surveillance monitoring network, consisting of air monitoring stations in most cities with populations of over 100,000. Monitoring is conducted for sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, ozone, suspended particulates, lead, and soiling index. This report analyzes monitoring data to determine national trends in average and peak concentrations of these contaminants on an annual basis for the last 10 years (1978-87). Data were also compared with the National Ambient Air Quality Objectives which define levels of contaminant concentration of maximum desirable, maximum acceptable, and maximum tolerable.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was introduced on December 2, 1970 by President Richard Nixon. The agency is charged with protecting human health and the environment, by writing and enforcing regulations based on laws passed by Congress. The EPA's struggle to protect health and the environment is seen through each of its official publications. These publications outline new policies, detail problems with enforcing laws, document the need for new legislation, and describe new tactics to use to solve these issues. This collection of publications ranges from historic documents to reports released in the new millennium, and features works like: Bicycle for a Better Environment, Health Effects of Increasing Sulfur Oxides Emissions Draft, and Women and Environmental Health.
