Consultation on UK report regarding plans and programmes to meet EU air quality limit values (reporting year 2006)
This consultation requests comments from interested parties on the UK Government and Devolved Administrations’ draft report to the European Commission on plans and programmes to meet EU ambient air quality limit values.
Under the Air Quality Framework Directive (1996/62/EC), where limit values plus a margin of tolerance are exceeded, a member state must produce plans and programmes to ensure compliance within the required timescale. Plans and programmes must be submitted to the European Commission no later than two years after the end of the year during which the exceedences were observed.
The consultation document concerns exceedences of EU limit values for nitrogen dioxide in certain zones and agglomerations of the UK in the calendar year 2006. The relevant limit values for this pollutant are established by the First Air Quality Daughter Directive (1999/30/EC).
You are invited to comment by 28 October 2008.
