A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF TUSTIN,
CALIFORNIA OPPOSING THE IMPOSITION OF
SANCTIONS BY THE ADMINISTRATOR OF THE
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY UPON
THE SOUTH COAST AIR BASIN
WHEREAS, the City of Tustin is located within the South Coast Air
Basin; and
WHEREAS, the South Coast Air Basin stands to lose federal funds for
transportation improvements, sewage treatment facilities, air quality
planning and highway repair and construction if monetary sanctions are
imposed by the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency; and
WHEREAS, the South Coast Air Basin, already hard hit by unemployment,
stands to lose more jobs if a construction ban on new or modified major
stationary sources is imposed by the Administrator of the Environmental
Protection Agency; and
WHEREAS, the imposition of such sanctions would be counterproductive
and could lead to worsened air quality and water qua.'lity; and
WHEREAS, the imposition of such sanctions is not warranted because
of the efforts of the South Coast Air Quality Management District and the
Southern California Association of Governments who submitted a jointly
prepare~d air quality management plan revision which met all Clean Air Act and
Environmental Protection Agency policy requirements and which has been praised
as one of the best in the country;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Tustin opposes the
imposition of sanctions by the Administrator of the Environmental Protection
Agency upon the South coast Air Basin and urges the Administrator to approve
the air quality management plan revision submitted in 1982 so that progress
toward cleaning up the air in .the South Coast Air Basin can continue forthwith.
