  2. National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Emissions...

    The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) are air pollution standards issued by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The standards, authorized by the Clean Air Act, are for pollutants not covered by the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) that may cause an increase in fatalities or in serious, irreversible, or incapacitating illness.

  3. State Implementation Plan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_Implementation_Plan

    A State Implementation Plan (SIP) is a United States state plan for complying with the federal Clean Air Act, administered by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The SIP, developed by a state agency and approved by EPA, consists of narrative, rules, technical documentation, and agreements that an individual state will use to control and clean up polluted areas.

  4. List of atmospheric dispersion models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_atmospheric...

    Photochemical air quality models have become widely utilized tools for assessing the effectiveness of control strategies adopted by regulatory agencies. These models are large-scale air quality models that simulate the changes of pollutant concentrations in the atmosphere by characterizing the chemical and physical processes in the atmosphere.

  5. National Ambient Air Quality Standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Ambient_Air...

    These sections require the EPA "(1) to list widespread air pollutants that reasonably may be expected to endanger public health or welfare; (2) to issue air quality criteria for them that assess the latest available scientific information on nature and effects of ambient exposure to them; (3) to set primary NAAQS to protect human health with ...

  6. Air Quality Modeling Group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Quality_Modeling_Group

    The Air Quality Modeling Group (AQMG) is in the U.S. EPA's Office of Air and Radiation (OAR) and provides leadership and direction on the full range of air quality models, air pollution dispersion models and other mathematical simulation techniques used in assessing pollution control strategies and the impacts of air pollution sources.

  7. Environmental monitoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_monitoring

    Passive or "diffusive" air sampling depends on meteorological conditions such as wind to diffuse air pollutants to a sorbent medium. Passive samplers, such as diffusion tubes, have the advantage of typically being small, quiet, and easy to deploy, and they are particularly useful in air quality studies that determine key areas for future continuous monitoring.

  8. Clean Air Act (United States) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean_Air_Act_(United_States)

    The Air Quality Act of 1967 (Pub. L. 90–148) authorized planning grants to state air pollution control agencies, permitted the creation of interstate air pollution control agencies, and required HEW to define air quality regions and develop technical documentation that would allow states to set ambient air quality and pollution control ...

  9. Air quality law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_quality_law

    The primary legislation governing air quality in India is the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981. [ 26 ] Additionally, the government introduced the National Clean Air Programme (NCAP) in 2019, aiming to reduce particulate matter (PM) pollution by 20-30% in at least 102 cities by 2024.
