Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman - Preventing Smog, Protecting New Yorkers


   Attorney General Schneiderman, along with five other states, sued the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to force long-overdue action on controlling smog pollution that blows into New York and other downwind states. The EPA has not made a decision in three years on whether it will use its legal authority to require upwind states to stem their contribution to smog pollution, which threatens the the health of millions of New Yorkers.
