Abstract: The control and elimination of air pollution has been a national goal since the passage of the Clean Air Act in 1963. It is a generally accepted fact that excessive exposure to airborne contaminants can lead to an increase in illness and mortality rates. Therefore, millions of dollars have been spent on developing better knowledge of the sources and health effects of air pollutants. Outdoor air was, and still is, the sole focus of the Clean Air Act. However, in the course of conducting research on human exposure to air pollution, information was gathered that created concern over possible exposures in the indoor environment. In one instance, a 1979 study designed to measure total exposure to respirable particulates over a typical days activities found higher concentrations in a cafeteria smoking section than outdoors.
