PHOENIX (May 28, 2015) – The Arizona Department of Environmental
Quality (ADEQ) is issuing a High Pollution Advisory (HPA) for ozone for
the Phoenix metropolitan area for Friday, May 29, 2015 . . . and a longer-than-normal ozone season.
Longer-than-normal? Ya mean the new normal when we accept extended periods of air contamination and don't do enough to reduce the sources of breathing unhealthy are?
Read the High Pollution Advisory [hover and click-on leak or use your touch-screen]
ADEQ is a
regulatory agency whose goal is to ensure federal clean air standards
are achieved and maintained for the residents and visitors of
Maricopa County.
While the department states it "follows air quality standards set forth by the
federal Clean Air Act", the facts and evidence do not support that claim: Maricopa County has a long record of non-compliance with the Clean Air Act ... they're blaming high pollution on the weather when the sources are on the ground with emissions from automobiles and industrial processes and dust in the air from construction.
From April-October it's gonna be a longer-than-normal ozone season
