Or. Admin. R. 340-246-0010
The purpose of Oregon's state Toxic Air Contaminant Program is to address threats to public health and the environment from toxic air pollutants that remain after implementing the state delegated technology-based strategies of the federal Hazardous Air Pollutants Program in OAR 340-244-0010 through 340-244-0252, Cleaner Air Oregon in OAR 340-245-0005 through 340-245-8050, and OAR 340-244-9000 through 340-244-9090. It also addresses cases of elevated health risks from toxic air contaminant emissions at stationary sources and source categories of toxic air contaminant emissions. In the future, it is also intended to address human exposures to toxic air contaminant emissions from stationary sources that are not addressed by other regulatory programs or the Geographic Program through a Safety Net Program. It is expected that the Safety Net Program will apply only rarely.
