Air Pollution Control Calendar

The Louisville Metro Air Pollution Control District will hold its second workshop on implementing the Strategic Toxic Air Reduction (STAR) Program on Thursday, March 16, 2006, from 1:30 to 4:00 p.m., in the Board Room, 850 Barret Avenue, Louisville. This workshop, identified as STAR Workshop 102, will focus on the more complex Tier 3 and 4 computer dispersion modeling and issues that may be more timely for Title V companies because of the implementation schedules established in Regulations 1.06 and 5.21. The District invites representatives of companies subject to the STAR Program, environmental consultants, and the public to attend.

If you plan on attending the workshop, please notify Matt Stull, APCD Public Information Supervisor by e-mail at Matt.Stull@louisvilleky.gov.
