A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
GRAND TERRACE, CALIFORNIA, OPPOSING THE IMPOSITION
OF SANCTIONS BY THE ADMINISTRATOR OF THE
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY UPON THE SOUTH
COAST AIR BASIN.
WHEREAS, the City of Grand Terrace is located within the South Coast
Air Basin; and
WHEREAS, the South Coast Air Basin stands to lose Federal funds for
transportation improvements, sewage treatment facilities, air quality
planning, and highway repair and construction if monetary sanctions are
imposed by the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency; and
WHEREAS, the South Coast Air Basin, already hard-hit by unemployment,
stands to lose more jobs if a construction ban on new or modified major
stationary sources is imposed by the Administrator of the Envirnmental
Protection Agency; and
WHEREAS, the imposition of such sanctions would be counterproductive
and could lead to worsened air quality and water quality; and
WHEREAS, the imposition of such sanctions is not warranted because of
the efforts of the South Coast Air Quality Management District and the
Southern California Association of Governments, who submitted a jointly
prepared air quality management plan revision which met all Clean Air Act and
Environmental Protection Agency policy requirements and which has been praised
as on of the best in the county;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
Grand Terrace opposes the imposition of sanctions by the Administrator of the
Environmental Protection Agency upon the South Coast Air Basin and urges the
Administrator to approve the air quality management plan revision submitted in
1982 so that progress toward cleaning up the air in the South Coast Air Basin
can continue forthwith.
ADOPTED this 14th day of April , 1983.
