New smog rules could be expensive for Tampa Bay
New smog rules could be expensive for Tampa Bay
Friday, March 14, 2008 BAY AREA (Bay News 9) -- New rules in effort to clean up smog in cities and towns nationwide may mean expensive changes for the Tampa Bay area. Hillsborough and Pasco Counties are among 10 counties in the state that do not meet the new EPA air pollution standard. The Environmental Protection Agency announced this week it was tightening the amount of ozone, commonly known as smog, that will be allowed in the air. The likely changes include tougher restrictions on power plants and incinerators and changes to the gasoline sold in the area. Although Pinellas County does meet the standard, any air pollution control measures in Pasco and Hillsborough will likely be applied to Pinellas because pollution does not stop at the county line. http://www.baynews9.com/content/36/2...+for+Tampa+Bay
