Abstract:
An historical account of air pollution and legislation to curb pollution on a national level frames the conversation concerning the state's current problems and legislation on this matter. Many laws targeted congested areas like cities where people were more likely to feel the effects of pollution. First recognition of the problem happened in the 1963 General Assembly when the State Air Hygiene Program Act passed.
