| Abstract | The U.S. Department of Transportation, John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe Center), Environmental Measurement and Modeling Division (Volpe Center), provided technical support to a National Park Service (NPS) project to evaluate vehicular emissions in Cape Cod National Seashore. Air emissions were analyzed using the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) MOBILE6.2 emissions inventory prediction model, and noise emissions were analyzed using the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) Traffic Noise Model. Input data are based on historical data, US Geological Survey data, and recommended roadway speeds. An emissions inventory, location point receiver analysis, and contour analysis are presented for Cape Cod National Seashore. |
