KEY: PM-10 = particulate matter of 10 microns in diameter or smaller; PM-2.5 = particulate matter of 2.5 microns in diameter or smaller.

NOTES: EPA no longer estimates lead emissions. Modal shares in 2000 were: highway gasoline vehicles, 4.1%; aircraft, 95.9%. Other includes recreational boats, airport service vehicles, and road maintenance equipment. To make it easier to compare data of differing magnitudes over time, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics divided the data for all years in each category (see table 15-1b in appendix B) by the initial year value and multiplied the result by 100.
