Four Corners Air Quality Task Force

The Four Corners Air Quality Task Force, convened by Colorado and New Mexico, addresses air quality issues in a rural region facing population growth and proposed power plant expansions. This complex landscape, characterized by existing oil and gas wells and planned extraction activities, demands a comprehensive study to ensure environmental protection. Engaging various stakeholders, including community members, local governments, tribes, and regulatory agencies, the Task Force aims to create a report by December 2007 that outlines effective mitigation options for air quality concerns such as ozone levels, nitrogen deposition, and greenhouse gas emissions.
