This document consists of the attainment demonstration, maintenance plan, and redesignation to attainment request for the Douglas Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) Nonattainment Area. The purpose of this document is to demonstrate how the State of Arizona has met the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for SO2 and intends to maintain compliance with the NAAQS in the Douglas area. Air quality standards are divided into two types: primary standards based on health effects and secondary standards based on environmental effects such as damage to property, plants, visibility, etc. Both standards are established by EPA for criteria air pollutants such as sulfur dioxide.

The Clean Air Act states that an area can be redesignated to attainment if specific conditions are met. This document demonstrates that all CAA requirements for attainment have been met, summarizes the progress of the area in attaining the PM10 standard, demonstrates that the Bullhead City area qualifies for EPA’s Clean Data Policy and Limited Maintenance Plan option, and includes a maintenance plan to assure continued attainment for ten years after the redesignation. This document includes a formal request to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to redesignate the Bullhead City, Arizona PM10 nonattainment area to attainment for the health-based 24-hour average and annual average PM10 National Ambient Air Quality Standard.

In addition, this document includes a formal request to revise the nonattainment area boundary, as currently defined in 40 CFR 81.303, to exclude three townships (108 square miles) in the east and south of the nonattainment area. The rationale for eliminating the three townships is that the land contains undisturbed desert terrain. The majority of the three townships is federal land managed by the Bureau of Land Management and state land managed by the Arizona State Land Department. Analyses included in this document show that ambient air quality measurements have remained below the NAAQS for PM10, and both the 24-hour average design value and annual average PM10 design value are below EPA’s LMP allowable limits. This document also demonstrates that the emission reduction control measures responsible for the air quality improvement are both permanent and enforceable.

Housing discrimination is particularly serious because our nation was founded on the ideals of individual
freedoms, and one of the most fundamental freedoms in a democracy is the freedom to move about and live where you choose. Whether that choice involves transferring from one city to another, or just moving across the street, a person’s ethnicity, family situation, or disability should never be a barrier to selecting
a home, apartment, or any other kind of dwelling. This guide to fair housing is designed to help you if you believe you have been subjected to unfair housing practices.

An update to the Flagstaff Regional Plan 2030 (FRP30), to bring its Road Network Illustration (Map 25) into compliance with Arizona Revised Statute requirements and to resolve inconsistencies between Map 25 and parts of the Flagstaff City Code. This update does not alter the intent of FRP30; it is only concerned with correcting errors, removing legal vulnerability, and improving the readability of FRP30.

The Office Air Quality, acting for the Director of the Department of Environmental Quality, is responsible for determining each regulated air pollution source’s capability and continuing ability to comply with air pollution source's emission rules; and any terms of conditional permits issued by the Arizona Air Pollution Control Hearing Board. This applies to all sources under the jurisdiction of the Department in matters of air pollution control. Performance tests, and/or visible emissions observations by agency personnel, are required to assure that sources are compliant with all applicable emission limitations at all major emission points before air pollution source operating permit are issued or renewed.

Attorney General Opinions are issued when requested by the legislature (or either house of the legislature), any public officer of the State, or a county attorney, on a question of law relating to their office. Our office does not issue opinions for private citizens, nor do we offer legal advice to private citizens.

The following opinions were issued from 1999 to the present time. The first two digits of each opinion indicate the year it was issued (I99 indicates it was issued in 1999), and the next three digits sequentially number the order in which the opinions were issued. For example, I99-003 would be the third opinion issued in 1999. The number in parentheses (R98-025) references the request for an opinion file number. Opinions of the Attorney General are advisory, and do not have the same effect as decisions of a court of law.

The Arizona Attorney General’s Office is the largest public law firm in the state, and the practice areas include: Protecting Arizona consumers against fraud, providing Arizona taxpayers with quality representation of State agencies, ensuring that Arizona aggressively pursues and prosecutes drug dealers and predators, and defending the human rights of all Arizonans.
