Beverly Hills
High School:
Various oil field operations and a power plant in close proximity to
Beverly
Hills High School emitted pollutants that impacted the
school. We developed air emission inventories of benzene,
formaldehyde, polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and metals for the years 1975, 1980,
1985, 1990,
1995, and 2000. For each year a maximum and average emissions scenario
was
created. We performed air dispersion modeling using a
combination of computer
and physical models to determine pollutant concentrations at select
receptors
at the high school.
Shown below is a diagram depicting annual average benzene
concentrations at
select locations on the Beverly Hills High School campus. A
high quality PDF
version of the map is available here. Click here

experimental wind tunnel work was done at Colorado State
University under the auspices of Dr. David Neff and Dr. Robert Meroney.
