07-2-1: |
Public Hearing to Consider Amendments to the Regulations for the State Ambient Air Quality Standard for Nitrogen Dioxide | |
ARB staff is proposing amendments to the State ambient air quality standard for nitrogen dioxide. The proposed amendments, which establish levels of ambient nitrogen dioxide considered safe, are based on a joint ARB/OEHHA review of the scientific literature. The staff report and the recommendations it contains were peer-reviewed and approved by the Air Quality Advisory Committee. Staff is proposing a lowering of the current 1-hour average nitrogen dioxide standard of 0.25 ppm to 0.18 ppm, and establishment of a new annual average standard of 0.030 ppm. Both standards are not to be exceeded. | ||
