Task Force Guiding Principles
Share the desire to work proactively to reduce current and avoid
future air quality impacts.
Acknowledge there are a wide range of perspectives that are involved,
and treat each other respectfully when differing opinions exist.
Open to all proposals to maintain and improve air quality, and to
address current and future needs.
Use sound scientific analysis, where available, as the basis for
understanding air quality issues. The lack of existing scientific
analysis will not preclude the development of specific mitigations
strategies.
Ensure collaboration/interaction between Task Force work groups where
appropriate.
Value the concept of adaptive management (i.e., modify action based
on learning) in air quality management.
Consider social and economic values.
Recognize the importance of consistent and on-going educational
efforts to generate public support and awareness of air quality issues
in the Four Corners region.
The work of the Task Force and its final report will be seriously
considered by the appropriate agencies and result in positive air
quality impacts.
