SB 5884 - DIGEST
Requires the department to develop a planned strategy to address toxic air pollutant emissions based on their relative risk to public health. The toxic air pollutant emission strategy must: (1) Identify the most significant toxic air pollutants being released in Washington;
(2) Include an evaluation, based on existing scientific information, of the risks associated with the identified toxic air pollutants;
(3) Evaluate the relative public health risk posed by the toxic air pollutants; and
(4) Prioritize the toxic air pollutants by the relative risk.
Directs the department to establish a ten-year schedule to adopt emission reduction standards that significantly reduce emissions for the top ten toxic air pollutants.
