This Web site serves the OTAG Air
Quality Analysis working group. OTAG
is a partnership between the EPA, the Environmental Council of the
States, ECOS and other stakeholders
to develop a thoughtful assessment and a consensus agreement
for reducing regional background ozone and its precursors, explicitly addressing
inter-regional ozone
transport over the Eastern US.
Thoughtful assessment is supported by policy-relevant
data from AIRS and other sources. The data analysis for assessment is distributed
over a diverse group of participants but the data used, the processing
tools and the results are shared through the links on this Web site. Critical
evaluation and consensus-building is encouraged by interactive annotation
facilities for feedback and comments on specific facts or general issues. |
