Revised Code of Washington - RCW Title 70 Public Health And Safety - Section 70.94.488 Woodsmoke emissions -- Findings

§ 70.94.488. Woodsmoke emissions -- Findings

The legislature finds that there are some communities in the state in which the national ambient air quality standards for PM 2.5 are exceeded, primarily due to woodsmoke emissions, and that current strategies are not sufficient to reduce woodsmoke emissions to levels that comply with the federal standards or adequately protect public health. The legislature finds that it is in the state's interest and to the benefit of the people of the state to evaluate additional measures to reduce woodsmoke emissions and update the state woodsmoke control program.
