Sanders says concerned citizens should look at the Title V Handbook for answers on air pollution from industrial or manufacturing sources.

Title V Handbook - www.titlev.org - is a wonderful resource for informing members of the public about the Title V of the Clean Air Act. This section of the Clean Air Act is the most important section for controlling air pollution from larger air pollution sources via a permitting process.

The Handbook instructs concerned citizens on how to find out if a polluting facility is complying with the Clean Air Act. This website provides lists of citizen concern letters and petitions to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), ways to publicly participate in the permitting process, Title V new source review lawsuits and decisions, and other relevant internet links.
