Mission Statement:
The mission of the N.C. Air Awareness Program is to provide an education and outreach program that will inform the public, business, industry, and other organizations on air pollution, its causes, its effects, and what can be done to prevent it. The Air Quality Action program is designed to motivate individuals and organizations to take actions to reduce their contribution to air pollution, particularly on days that are forecast to be Air Quality Action Days.
Goal:
The goal of the Air Quality Action Program is to prevent days exceeding the national air quality standard and provide healthy air to all North Carolinians. Voluntary reductions in emissions may help avoid more costly mandatory regulation that could affect businesses and the public if any of the urban areas do not meet the National Ambient Air Quality Standards.
