Clean Air Act Self-Assessment Tools
The Clean Air Act (CAA) is the comprehensive Federal law
that regulates air emissions from area, stationary, and mobile sources.
This law authorizes EPA to establish National Ambient Air Quality Standards
(NAAQS) to protect public health and the environment. It also established
programs to address smog, acid rain, stratospheric ozone protection, and
air toxics. Federal CAA regulations are set forth in the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) at
40 CFR Part 50-99. Below are available checklists and audit protocols
that can help organizations determine their compliance with the CAA.
