- 9194b3c5-99b4-4026-a14f-0ca9cb7d5256 definition "The Bureau of Air Quality is one of three Bureaus within the Maine Department of Environmental Protection. The mission of the Bureau is to coordinate a statewide program to control present and future sources of air contaminants to assure the continued health, safety and general welfare of the people of Maine, to protect property values, and to protect plant and animal life. To fulfill this mission, the Bureau implements a two-pronged strategy: first, to improve air quality in those areas where air quality has degraded; and second, to prevent the deterioration of air quality in areas where the air quality is acceptable. Much of the Air Bureau's activities are related to complying with ambient air quality standards. Air quality is monitored for specific pollutants at various locations throughout the state, providing feedback not only on the state of Maine's air quality in the present, but also on the trends that exist in our air quality, (such as its improvement) over time. Monitoring also tells us about the effectiveness of our programs. Emission licenses issued within the context of the Air Program are designed to ensure that emissions from manufacturing and industrial sources are sufficiently controlled so as not to diminish the quality of our air. Compliance activities within the air program ensure that terms of the licenses, and the regulations administered by the bureau are adhered to, and enforcement activities ensures a consequence for noncompliance. Inventory activities track statewide emissions of criteria pollutants, enabling trend analyses and other information critical to air quality management. Other Bureau activities encompass air quality issues such as air toxics inventory and monitoring programs, mobile sources, mercury and acid rain deposition monitoring, and climate change. In addition, the Bureau maintains an active education and outreach program, and participates in regional efforts to curb air pollution. [Source: 'http://www.maine.gov/dep/air/']" @default.
