SAN FRANCISCO – The Bay Area Air Quality Management District is holding the first open house in Redwood City this Thursday to present and get public input on potential new control measures and strategies that may be included in the 2016 Clean Air Plan/Regional Climate Protection Strategy.

The meeting will also offer an opportunity for the public to learn about proposed revisions to the Air District’s New Source Review of Toxic Air Contaminants rule.

The open house events are organized to offer an opportunity to learn about the air quality benefits of the proposals, ask questions and provide input into the planning process. Interactive displays will allow visitors to review materials in multiple formats.
