• Abstract:
  Before Caltrans can deliver any transportation project, the potential air quality impacts from the operation ; of the project must be disclosed in its environmental document. If the air emissions are deemed ; significant or would contribute to a violation of one or more federal or state air quality standards, those air ; quality impacts would need to be mitigated. ; Caltrans is interested in compiling mitigation measures—and a quantification of their effectiveness—for ; reducing the air quality impacts of emissions occurring during the operational phases of transportation ; projects. Emissions of interest include mobile source air toxics, criteria pollutants like nitrogen dioxide, ; carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and lead (excluding greenhouse gases), and particulate matter from reentrained road dust and automobile tire and brake wear.
