Default "Most polluted city in America" declaration by EPA in 1969??

I've searched and came up empty so I thought I'd try here.

Can someone tell me which city was declared "most polluted city in
america" by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1969?

If possible, could you please provide a source?

thank you.

None, since the EPA didn't come into existence until 2 Dec 1970

I find websites listing an EPA declaration that Chattanooga was "the
worst polluted city in America" in the year 1969.

How is this possible?

thanks

I have no idea. Somebody must have made a mistake. There are more
sites that talk about the HEW study that listed Chattanooga as the worst
polluted city, but it certainly wasn't EPA.
