Strategic Planning for the Upcoming State Air Regulations Required Under the 1990 Clean Air Act

This paper depicts the major issues related to the management of air pollutant emissions required by the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments. [1] A well-thought-of strategic plan dealing with those issues is essential to the survival of many medium- to large-sized printing plants in the rest of the decades. The reasons are that not only the required changes many printers will have to face are abundant but also that many of those changes may have profound effect on their printing operations. The paper is based on the author's hands-on working experience with 35 states' air pollution control agencies and more than 300 printing plants around the country.
