Summary of Current Activities

 Back to Toxic Air Contaminant Program

The pesticides listed below are those for which ambient air is the focus or a significant component of the monitoring, evaluation, and control. DPR monitors, evaluates, and controls additional pesticides for which ambient air is a minor component and are unlikely to undergo evaluation or control using the toxic air contaminant process.

The following table shows work in progress. DPR has completed work for other pesticides that are not listed here, but can be found using the table's main heading links for monitoring, evaluation, and control.
