Formerly under the Department of Health and
Mental Hygiene, the Air Management Administra-
tion was transferred to the Department of the En-
vironment in 1987 (Chapter 306, Acts of 1987).
The Administration develops and implements pro-
grams for cleaner air. To this end, the Administra-
tion devises air resources management plans and
program strategies. It develops and enforces regu-
lations for control of emissions from stationary and
other sources. A comprehensive air monitoring sys-
tem is maintained statewide by the Administration
in order to institute regular and emergency proce-
dures for control of ambient pollutant levels.
The Administration works through three pro-
grams: Policy Analysis and Program Development;
Engineering and Enforcement; and Technical Ser-
vices. The Air Quality Control Advisory Council
and the Environmental Noise Advisory Council
support the Administration's work.
