  abstract: Since passage of the Clean Air Act in 1970, air quality has
  abstract: been a major environmental regulatory issue. With the
  abstract: passage of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990, air quality
  abstract: became one of the greatest environmental regulatory efforts
  abstract: in this nation's history. Designed to achieve air quality
  abstract: standards set by its predecessors, the new regulations impose
  abstract: strict requirements on industry and the public. Two
  abstract: classifications now apply to areas of the country according
  abstract: to air quality. An area with acceptable air quality in
  abstract: compliance with the standards is classified as an "attainment
  abstract: area". An area exceeding acceptable levels of certain
  abstract: pollutants during a specified period is classified as a
  abstract: "nonattaninment area". Nonattainment status imposes far-
  abstract: reaching controls on businesses and the community. Corpus
  abstract: Christi is classified as an attainment area, but because of
  abstract: the potential for ozone nonattainment, it is referred to as
  abstract: "near-nonattainment". To improve air quality and preserve
  abstract: attainment status, the City of Corpus Christi and a local
  abstract: industry group, the Board of Trade implemented pollution
  abstract: prevention strategies. To compliment these efforts, this
  abstract: researcher created the Pollution Prevention Partnership to
  abstract: provide small businesses information and technical support on
  abstract: construction. modification, and operation of facilities to
  abstract: comply with environmental regulations. The topic of this
  abstract: dissertation is one Pollution Prevention Partnership program
  abstract: aimed at the gasoline marketing industry. Identified as a
  abstract: key contributor to emissions of air pollutants, this industry
  abstract: was assisted in developing strategies for reducing emissions
  abstract: from their operations. A key element of the program is Stage
  abstract: I vapor recovery, or recovery of gasoline vapors displaced
  abstract: during fuel deliveries to fueling facilities. Working in
  abstract: cooperation with the industry, educational seminars were
  abstract: developed and delivered to facility operators. These
  abstract: seminars addressed the environmental, safety, and economic
  abstract: considerations of pollution prevention using vapor recovery.
  abstract: As a result of these seminars, industry upgraded gasoline
  abstract: marketing facilities and requires the use of Stage I vapor
  abstract: recovery controls. Through the combined efforts of the
  abstract: Partnership, the City, and the Board of Trade, Corpus Christi
  abstract: will enjoy improved air quality while maintaining attainment
  abstract: status.
