Airborne Toxics Program

The Airborne Toxics Program monitors and manages the release of harmful chemicals into the air to protect public health and the environment. It involves identifying sources of toxic pollutants from industrial facilities, transportation, and other activities, measuring their levels in the air, and ensuring they stay within safe limits. The program also works to reduce emissions through regulations, best practices, and technology improvements. Its goal is to minimize exposure to dangerous airborne chemicals, preventing health issues and environmental damage while supporting informed decision-making for air quality management.
