Energy, Clean Air and Climate Change Subcommittee
[THIS SUBCOMMITTEE IS CURRENTLY INACTIVE]
In July 1997, EPA established a new subcommittee under the
Clean Air Act Advisory Committee to focus on the interaction of
energy, clean air, and climate change issues. The Subcommittee
on Energy, Clean Air and Climate Change is dealing with an important
emerging issue that directly overlaps with OAR's regulatory charges:
eighty-five percent of greenhouse gas emissions come from energy
sources which are directly regulated under the CAA. The subcommittee
provides a forum for education on climate issues and dissemination
of timely information on the latest policy developments to state
and local governments, the business community, and other stakeholders.
In addition, the subcommittee examines strategies and provides
advice on scientific, economic, and policy issues that encompass
the interaction of clean air, energy and climate change issues.
Membership on the subcommittee includes experts in industrial economics, state representatives from energy and air quality agencies, representatives from other state and local interest groups, environmental groups, public utilities, industry representatives, academicians, union representation, and other appropriate groups. The subcommittee is co-chaired by Anthony Earl, former Governor of Wisconsin and by Kathleen Hogan, Acting Director of the Atmospheric Pollution Prevention Division.
