[ CANMET ENERGY 0 MCLH 01/09/2016 ] We have found, through technical advances in impact assessment, that toxic Activity air Destination contaminants are not only worse than previously thought from a health perspective, but also their concentrations have been steadily increasing, giving rise to new regulations and programs to reduce the significantly elevated levels of ambient toxic air contaminant concentrations in the Bay Area.
