Dear Dr. Stallworth: 

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s proposed new National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards (NAAQS) for ozone will hurt manufacturers’ ability to create jobs and compete in the 

global marketplace. The proposal would lower the current standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) 

to a range between 70 ppb and 60 ppb. This will result in significant costs, increased regulations 

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after 

establishing the 75 ppb standard in 2008. According to a recent study by the Manufacturers 

Alliance (MAPI), lowering the current standard would cost 7.3 million jobs by 2020 and add $1 

trillion in new regulatory burdens between 2020 and 2030. In addition, a new standard would 

place many counties in our nation in violation of the requirements of the Clean Air Act. This will 

significantly hurt large and small businesses and hinder economic growth in many states.

Now is not the time to put even more high-paying manufacturing jobs at stake.

I strongly urge the CASAC Panel to recommend that the EPA not adopt this new, more stringent 

ozone standard.

Dear Dr. Stallworth: 

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s proposed new National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards (NAAQS) for ozone will hurt manufacturers’ ability to create jobs and compete in the 

global marketplace. The proposal would lower the current standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) 

to a range between 70 ppb and 60 ppb. This will result in significant costs, increased regulations 

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after 

establishing the 75 ppb standard in 2008. According to a recent study by the Manufacturers

Standards (NAAQS) for ozone will hurt manufacturers’ ability to create jobs and compete in the 

global marketplace. The proposal would lower the current standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) 

to a range between 70 ppb and 60 ppb. This will result in significant costs, increased regulations 

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after 

establishing the 75 ppb standard in 2008. According to a recent study by the Manufacturers 

Alliance (MAPI), lowering the current standard would cost 7.3 million jobs by 2020 and add $1 

trillion in new regulatory burdens between 2020 and 2030. In addition, a new standard would 

place many counties in our nation in violation of the requirements of the Clean Air Act. This will 

significantly hurt large and small businesses and hinder economic growth in many states.

Now is not the time to put even more high-paying manufacturing jobs at stake.

I strongly urge the CASAC Panel to recommend that the EPA not adopt this new, more stringent 

ozone standard.

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after 

establishing the 75 ppb standard in 2008. According to a recent study by the Manufacturers 

Alliance (MAPI), lowering the current standard would cost 7.3 million jobs by 2020 and add $1 

trillion in new regulatory burdens between 2020 and 2030. In addition, a new standard would 

place many counties in our nation in violation of the requirements of the Clean Air Act. This will 

significantly hurt large and small businesses and hinder economic growth in many states.

Now is not the time to put even more high-paying manufacturing jobs at stake.

I strongly urge the CASAC Panel to recommend that the EPA not adopt this new, more stringent

Alliance (MAPI), lowering the current standard would cost 7.3 million jobs by 2020 and add $1 

trillion in new regulatory burdens between 2020 and 2030. In addition, a new standard would 

place many counties in our nation in violation of the requirements of the Clean Air Act. This will 

significantly hurt large and small businesses and hinder economic growth in many states.

Now is not the time to put even more high-paying manufacturing jobs at stake.

I strongly urge the CASAC Panel to recommend that the EPA not adopt this new, more stringent 

ozone standard.

Dear Dr. Stallworth: 

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s proposed new National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards (NAAQS) for ozone will hurt manufacturers’ ability to create jobs and compete in the 

global marketplace. The proposal would lower the current standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) 

to a range between 70 ppb and 60 ppb. This will result in significant costs, increased regulations 

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after 

establishing the 75 ppb standard in 2008. According to a recent study by the Manufacturers 

Alliance (MAPI), lowering the current standard would cost 7.3 million jobs by 2020 and add $1

Dear Dr. Stallworth: 

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s proposed new National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards (NAAQS) for ozone will hurt manufacturers’ ability to create jobs and compete in the 

global marketplace. The proposal would lower the current standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) 

to a range between 70 ppb and 60 ppb. This will result in significant costs, increased regulations 

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after 

establishing the 75 ppb standard in 2008. According to a recent study by the Manufacturers 

Alliance (MAPI), lowering the current standard would cost 7.3 million jobs by 2020 and add $1 

trillion in new regulatory burdens between 2020 and 2030. In addition, a new standard would 

place many counties in our nation in violation of the requirements of the Clean Air Act. This will

Dear Dr. Stallworth: 

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s proposed new National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards (NAAQS) for ozone will hurt manufacturers’ ability to create jobs and compete in the 

global marketplace. The proposal would lower the current standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) 

to a range between 70 ppb and 60 ppb. This will result in significant costs, increased regulations 

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after 

establishing the 75 ppb standard in 2008. According to a recent study by the Manufacturers 

Alliance (MAPI), lowering the current standard would cost 7.3 million jobs by 2020 and add $1 

trillion in new regulatory burdens between 2020 and 2030. In addition, a new standard would 

place many counties in our nation in violation of the requirements of the Clean Air Act. This will 

significantly hurt large and small businesses and hinder economic growth in many states.

Now is not the time to put even more high-paying manufacturing jobs at stake.

I strongly urge the CASAC Panel to recommend that the EPA not adopt this new, more stringent

Dear Dr. Stallworth: 

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s proposed new National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards (NAAQS) for ozone will hurt manufacturers’ ability to create jobs and compete in the 

global marketplace. The proposal would lower the current standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) 

to a range between 70 ppb and 60 ppb. This will result in significant costs, increased regulations 

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after 

establishing the 75 ppb standard in 2008. According to a recent study by the Manufacturers 

Alliance (MAPI), lowering the current standard would cost 7.3 million jobs by 2020 and add $1 

trillion in new regulatory burdens between 2020 and 2030. In addition, a new standard would 

place many counties in our nation in violation of the requirements of the Clean Air Act. This will 

significantly hurt large and small businesses and hinder economic growth in many states.

Now is not the time to put even more high-paying manufacturing jobs at stake.

I strongly urge the CASAC Panel to recommend that the EPA not adopt this new, more stringent 

ozone standard.

Sincerely,

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s proposed new National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards (NAAQS) for ozone will hurt manufacturers’ ability to create jobs and compete in the 

global marketplace. The proposal would lower the current standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb)

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after

Standards (NAAQS) for ozone will hurt manufacturers’ ability to create jobs and compete in the 

global marketplace. The proposal would lower the current standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) 

to a range between 70 ppb and 60 ppb. This will result in significant costs, increased regulations 

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after 

establishing the 75 ppb standard in 2008. According to a recent study by the Manufacturers 

Alliance (MAPI), lowering the current standard would cost 7.3 million jobs by 2020 and add $1 

trillion in new regulatory burdens between 2020 and 2030. In addition, a new standard would 

place many counties in our nation in violation of the requirements of the Clean Air Act. This will 

significantly hurt large and small businesses and hinder economic growth in many states.

Now is not the time to put even more high-paying manufacturing jobs at stake.

I strongly urge the CASAC Panel to recommend that the EPA not adopt this new, more stringent 

ozone standard.

Dear Dr. Stallworth: 

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s proposed new National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards (NAAQS) for ozone will hurt manufacturers’ ability to create jobs and compete in the 

global marketplace. The proposal would lower the current standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) 

to a range between 70 ppb and 60 ppb. This will result in significant costs, increased regulations 

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after 

establishing the 75 ppb standard in 2008. According to a recent study by the Manufacturers 

Alliance (MAPI), lowering the current standard would cost 7.3 million jobs by 2020 and add $1 

trillion in new regulatory burdens between 2020 and 2030. In addition, a new standard would 

place many counties in our nation in violation of the requirements of the Clean Air Act. This will 

significantly hurt large and small businesses and hinder economic growth in many states.

Now is not the time to put even more high-paying manufacturing jobs at stake.

I strongly urge the CASAC Panel to recommend that the EPA not adopt this new, more stringent 

ozone standard.

Dear Dr. Stallworth: 

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s proposed new National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards (NAAQS) for ozone will hurt manufacturers’ ability to create jobs and compete in the 

global marketplace. The proposal would lower the current standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) 

to a range between 70 ppb and 60 ppb. This will result in significant costs, increased regulations 

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after 

establishing the 75 ppb standard in 2008. According to a recent study by the Manufacturers 

Alliance (MAPI), lowering the current standard would cost 7.3 million jobs by 2020 and add $1 

trillion in new regulatory burdens between 2020 and 2030. In addition, a new standard would 

place many counties in our nation in violation of the requirements of the Clean Air Act. This will 

significantly hurt large and small businesses and hinder economic growth in many states.

Now is not the time to put even more high-paying manufacturing jobs at stake.

I strongly urge the CASAC Panel to recommend that the EPA not adopt this new, more stringent 

ozone standard.

Sincerely,

William Retsch

Comment: Please do not change the current ozone standard from 75 parts per billion (ppb) to a

Dear Dr. Stallworth: 

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s proposed new National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards (NAAQS) for ozone will hurt manufacturers’ ability to create jobs and compete in the 

global marketplace. The proposal would lower the current standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) 

to a range between 70 ppb and 60 ppb. This will result in significant costs, increased regulations 

and job losses.

Manufacturers are troubled that the EPA is proposing a new standard only two years after 

establishing the 75 ppb standard in 2008. According to a recent study by the Manufacturers 

Alliance (MAPI), lowering the current standard would cost 7.3 million jobs by 2020 and add $1 

trillion in new regulatory burdens between 2020 and 2030. In addition, a new standard would 

place many counties in our nation in violation of the requirements of the Clean Air Act. This will 

significantly hurt large and small businesses and hinder economic growth in many states.

Now is not the time to put even more high-paying manufacturing jobs at stake.

I strongly urge the CASAC Panel to recommend that the EPA not adopt this new, more stringent 

ozone standard.

Sincerely,
