Study Notes
Key Terms and Definitions
- Resistant Compounds: Compounds that are not easily degraded by photolytic, chemical, or biological processes, including dioxin, furan, PCBs, and various organochlorine pesticides (e.g., aldrin, DDT).
- Poisonous and Toxic Fumes: Emissions exceeding internationally accepted standards, specifically WHO guideline values.
- Pollution Control Device: Equipment designed to minimize air pollution from specific sources, ensuring compliance with established air quality standards.
- Pollution Control Technology: Methods and devices aimed at reducing emissions or effluents during production and fuel combustion processes.
- Standard of Performance: Emission restriction levels achieved through the best emission reduction technologies, considering cost and environmental impacts.
Air Pollution Management Initiatives
- National Research and Development Program: A collaboration between the Department and various stakeholders to develop innovative methods for preventing air pollution, focusing on industry-wide applications.
- Guideline Values and Standards: Establishment of air quality standards beyond international norms that incorporate socio-cultural, political, and economic factors.
Permits and Compliance
- Permit Authority: The Department has the power to issue permits for air pollution prevention, which outline emission limitations for regulated pollutants to maintain air quality.
- Emission Quotas: Special airshed regions may allocate emissions quotas based on environmental assessments to manage pollution sources.
Environmental Management Plans
- Financial Liability for Rehabilitation: Proponents of projects must guarantee funding for emergency response and rehabilitation efforts related to environmental impact, as outlined in compliance certificates.
- Durability of Emission Devices: Regulations ensuring that vehicles conform to emission standards throughout their useful life, including provisions for second-hand motor vehicle engines.
Pollution Sources and Regulation
- Restriction on Smoking: Smoking is prohibited in public buildings and enclosed spaces, enforced by local government units.
- Mobile Source Pollution: The Department will develop emission standards for mobile pollution sources and enforce penalties for non-compliance.
Fuels and Additives Regulation
- Regulation of Fuels: The Department of Energy (DOE) will oversee the regulation of fuels and additives in coordination with other departments, requiring registration before sale.
- Additive Approval Criteria: New fuel additives must not increase regulated gas emissions, such as carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides.
Monitoring and Coordination
- Meteorological Monitoring: PAGASA will track environmental conditions affecting air quality, including greenhouse gas emissions, to aid in pollution monitoring and standard-setting with the Department's guidance.
