A brief description of the policies and/or guidelines to improve outdoor air quality and minimize air pollutant emissions from mobile sources:
Each year, Arizona State University maintains its Maricopa County Air Quality Department's Non-Title V Tempe Campus Air Quality Permit #960886 to Operate and/or Construct. This is a Synthetic Minor permit that allows ASU to elect to limit emissions for sources with potential Title V emissions. We utilize the permit as a guideline to regulate source specific emissions by constant monitoring, requiring operational limits, demonstrated by recordkeeping and reporting.
Also, Arizona State University is committed to offering alternative transportation options to reduce air pollution. Examples include: The ASU U-Pass provides unlimited access to all four campuses and greater Phoenix on Valley Metro bus routes and the METRO light rail. Free intercampus shuttles. Zipcar. Bicycle Coops. Use of electric carts. A biodiesel station on the Tempe campus.
