EPA Doesn't Take Its Own Advise
By Jodi LaMarco
The EPA has suggested changing the standard for ground-level ozone pollution to 70 to 75 parts per billion over an eight hour period, but some are criticizing the proposal for falling short of recommendations by the EPA's own Clean Air Scientific Advisory Committee to reduce the range to 60 to 70 parts per billion.
No changes will be implemented until March 2008, during which time the issue will be taken up at four public hearings. The plan may even default back to the current standard of 80 parts per million if deemed acceptable.
