Description

This resource provides guidance on air quality management to meet Alberta's commitment to implementing the national Air Quality Management System. Alberta Environment and Parks is advancing the Red Deer Regional Plan and North Saskatchewan Regional Plan, and the associated air quality management frameworks, to ensure that Alberta can meet its national commitments prior to the completion of the regional planning process. This interim approach is a collaborative performance management system developed by Environment and Parks to manage the cumulative effects of point and non-point sources on air quality in the regions. Air quality management frameworks for the Red Deer and North Saskatchewan regions developed under a regional plan will supersede this interim approach.
