What is the International Air Quality Advisory Board?
In 1966 the Governments asked the International Joint Commission to observe air quality along the entire Canada and United States boundary and, as appropriate, draw air pollution problems to the attention of Governments. The Commission established the International Air Quality Advisory Board to identify and provide advice on air pollution issues with transboundary implications.
How does the International Air Quality Advisory Board Carry out its Responsibilities?
The Board includes five members from Canada and five from the
United States who have expertise in various aspects of air
pollution effects and control. They are appointed by the
Commission and serve as advisors in their personal and professional
capacities. The role of the Board is entirely advisory in
nature. Information and advice is provided to the Commission by
the Board through semi-annual progress reports, workshops,
technical analyses and published reports on the many aspects
of transboundary air pollution.
