Purpose

Takes SMOKE reports and calculates the average-episode emissions (direct PM2.5, SO2, NOx, NH3, VOC) emitted in the "true" non-attainment area.

Inputs

1. SMOKE reports (10 days * 4 sectors = 40 reports) that are formatted a specific way.
2. Text file (1), generated by GIS, that determines which PM2.5 non-attainment area a 4 km grid-cell in the modeling domain belongs to.

Output

Table of emission summaries by sector, pollutant, and non-attainment area (Salt Lake, Provo, Logan, N/A).
