Abstract |
The Clean Air Act, as amended, directs the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare to designate 'air quality control regions' to provide a basis for the adoption of regional ambient air quality standards and the implementation of those standards. The Act stipulates that the designation of a region shall be preceded by consultation with appropriate State and local authorities. This report is intended to provide background information for a formal Consultation. It proposes boundaries for the Metropolitan Miami Intrastate Air Quality Control Region and discusses the factors which are the basis of the boundary proposal. (Author) |
