Commitment to Improve Air Quality
How Ozone Impacts the Maricopa Region
Clean air is critical to our health, economy, and quality of life. By failing to meet the federal standards for clean air, our regional economy could lose millions of dollars each year, and your health is at serious risk.
Commitment to Air Quality
MAG, Maricopa County, the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality, and the Arizona Department of Transportation have an impressive record in improving our air quality.
