The Impact of Clean Air in the 1990's

Abstract

The legislative and executive branches of the Government have been working on a complete, comprehensive revision of the existing Clean Air statuses which would tighten pollution control on motor vehicle and industrial emission and establish compliance deadlines for both industrial activities and individual states and regions. This revision of public policy is designed to reduce and/or eliminate the continued release of hazardous materials into the air from both fugitive and point effluent sources. The materials addressed are either hazardous or toxic to humans, terrestrial animals, aquatic life, and the balanced ecosystems of the biosphere. The legislation is aimed at public health concerns and environmental impact.
