The Air Toxics "Hot Spots" Information and Assessment Act (AB2588) was enacted in September 1987. The goals of the "Hot Spots" Act are to collect emission data, to identify facilities having localized impacts, to ascertain health risks, and to notify nearby residents of significant risks. Under this program, stationary sources are required to report the quantities of a large number of substances their facilities routinely release into the air. Verdant Environmental has prepared AB2588 Air Toxic Inventory Plans and Reports for facilities in a range of industrial sectors including aerospace, petroleum, and power generation.
