The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and Air Quality Management District (AQMD) lead the way for regulating the reduction of VOC's in our daily life. California's Air Quality Regulations are the most stringent in the United States. The rest of the country and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) usually follows California's lead on Environmental Legislation.

This reduction in VOC's, whether it be Consumer Products, Portable Fuel Containers, Vehicle Emissions or Industrial Coatings is necessary in reducing the problem of ozone induced smog and global warming.To learn more about ground level ozone click here! http://www.otcair.org
