Nov 17: Air Toxics conference at Pitt

The 2009 Conference on Air Toxics Control in Allegheny County will cover the science and history of air toxics control in Allegheny County, the specifics of the proposed Allegheny County Air Toxics Control Bill, and air toxics control elsewhere (federal, state, and local). This event, sponsored by the Graduate School of Public Health and the Allegheny County Health Department, has been approved for the Dean's Public Health Grand Rounds. Kudos to Clean Water Action for continuing to bring attention to Allegheny County's air toxics problem. Check out WTAE's 3 part series -- http://www.thepittsburghchannel.com/index.html . And for more information on air quality in general, you can always visit GASP.
