Clean Air Scientific Advisory Committee

The Clean Air Scientific Advisory Committee (CASAC) is a group of independent experts that advises the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on air quality standards. Their role is to review scientific research on pollutants and public health, helping to ensure that the air we breathe is safe. CASAC evaluates the effectiveness of current air quality regulations, proposes updates based on new science, and makes recommendations to improve air pollution control strategies. This ensures that policies are informed by the latest scientific evidence, ultimately aiming to protect public health and the environment.
