Air Toxics Strategy

The following document provides a summary of EPA’s Air Toxics Strategy to more effectively identify and address existing, emerging, and future air toxics issues in the U.S. Identifying air toxics issues and appropriate approaches for addressing them requires strong communication, coordination and collaboration between EPA, our regulatory partners, and stakeholders, as well as sound technical information and analyses to support technical and policy solutions. A focus of the strategy is to provide structure to the Air Toxics Program so that we can more effectively address air toxics issues, including environmental justice issues associated with air toxics in communities.
