(a) It is the policy of the County to protect the County’s ambient air quality as necessary to:
(1) protect the health, safety, comfort and well-being of the County’s residents and businesses;
(2) prevent injury to plant and animal life and to property; and
(3) protect the recreational resources of the County.
(b) It is the County’s goal to protect and facilitate the improvement of the indoor air quality experienced by businesses and occupants of multi-tenant buildings.
(c) The Department must apply principles of sound environmental health management and use reasonably available air quality control technology to implement this Chapter. (1975 L.M.C., ch. 17, § 1; 2002 L.M.C., ch. 6, § 1.)
Editor’s note—2002 L.M.C., ch. 6, § 2, states: Transition. Until superseded, an Executive Regulation issued under Chapter 3 before the effective date of this Act [April 11, 2002] remains in effect to the extent the regulation is consistent with this Act. This Act does not apply to a violation of Chapter 3 that occurred before this Act took effect [April 11, 2002].
