An inexact fuzzy-random-chance-constrained programming model (IFRCCMM) was developed for supporting regional air quality management under uncertainty. IFRCCMM was formulated through integrating interval linear programming within fuzzy-random-chance-constrained programming framework. It could deal with parameter uncertainties expressed as not only fuzzyrandom variables but also discrete intervals. Based on the stochastic and fuzzychance-constrainedprogramming algorithms, IFRCCMM was solved when constraints was satisfied under different satisfaction and violation levels of constraints, leading to interval solutions with different risk and cost implications. The proposed model was applied to a regional air quality management problem for demonstration. The obtained results indicated that the proposed model could effectively reflect uncertain components within air quality management system through employing multiple uncertainty-characterization techniques (in random, fuzzy and interval forms), and help decision makers analyze trade-offs between system economy and reliability. In fact, many types of solutions (i.e. conservative solutions with lower risks and optimistic solutions with higher risks) provided by IFRCCMM were suitable for local decision makers to make more applicable decision schemes according to their understanding and preference about the risk and economy. In addition, the modeling philosophy is general and applicable to many other environmental problems that may be complicated with multiple forms of uncertainties.
