Where are the power plants and large industrial facilities that contribute significantly to New Hampshires air quality problems located?
While the impact of NOx emissions diminishes the further upwind one goes, state-of-the-art air quality modeling indicates that NOx emissions from as far away as the Mississippi River Valley make a discernible difference to ozone levels in New Hampshire. As a result, New Hampshire’s Section 126 petition targets any sizable NOx source, near or far, located in the states of Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia, as well as portions of Iowa, Michigan, Missouri, and Wisconsin.
