dc.description.abstract | This document serves as an appendix to the report entitled “Prescribed Fire Policy Barriers and Opportunities: A Diversity of Challenges and Strategies Across the West” [Ecosystem Workforce Program Working Paper #86]. The aforementioned report details our findings from our initial phases of project research, including a legal analysis and approximately sixty interviews with key informants (e.g. land managers, air regulators, and state agency partners). This appendix provides additional detail from our legal research on air quality law and policy. The following sections include overviews of the federal Clean Air Act, followed by details for each of the 11 western states in our study. In the main report, Table 1 on pp. 14-16 provides a state-by-state overview of air quality regulatory processes and interagency relationships to support burning in each state; please refer to the table for a quick reference guide that summarizes the information for states covered in this appendix. | en_US |
