Regional Haze Consultation - Northern Class I Areas

The States of Michigan and Minnesota, along with representatives of other states, tribal governments, and federal agencies, are working to address visibility impairment due to regional haze in four northern class I areas: Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, Voyageurs National Park, Isle Royale National Park, and Seney Wilderness Area. Pursuant to the Cean Air Act, states are required to make reasonable progress toward meeting a national goal of natural conditions (i.e., visibility levels in the absence of manmade air pollution).

In support of the requirement for consultation in the development of state implementation plans for regional haze, this page provides copies of the following relevant documents: joint work products, and summaries of meetings and conference calls between the state, tribal, and federal organizations.
