"Cerullo, Arthur A." <ACeruIlo@DDLAW .COM> <Jackson.Lisa@epamail .epa.gov> "Cerullo, Arthur A." <ACerullo@DDLAW .COM> ALA State Of The Air Report and A Request Message Body Lisa I've been thinking a lot about what you discussed with the American Lung Association Board when you attended our meeting in DCon March 16, 2010. As a former chemical engineer, I agreewith you and believe that the scientists and engineers in our country are a unique resource that is capable of crafting innovative answers to our many environmental issues. However, as gifted and talented as these technical people are, there are many impediments, not the least of which is funding, togetting themfocused on and working towards these solutions. In the meantime, the young, the old and thosewith asthma and other lung issues must continue to endure unhealthful air in too many parts of our country and especially in the East
. ALA released it's State Of The Air report today which can be viewed at www .stateoftheair.org and which sadly, showsjust how dangerous the air is to breathe in too many of populated areas. On February 2, 2010 I had the honor and opportunity in my capacity as Speaker of the National Assembly ofALAtotestify before the EPA in Arlington, Virginia on EPA's reconsideration of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards For Ozone. During my testimony I told how, over the past few decades the once clear air over Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park is a thing of the past and that smog nowplagues that area and much of Maine as well as the East Coast causing countless hazy and unhealthful days. I'maware that EPA's CleanAir Scientific Advisory Committee has proposed a range of60to 70 ppb. Given the sobering statistics in our State Of TheAir report I hope EPAwill set the ozone standard at 60 ppb even though it is my personal belief that it should be even much lower. Thank you for taking the time to read this email and I hope you can reviewour report. Wishing you the best
