Air pollution control and air quality management districts: permit information: internet website.

California Assembly Bill 1305 aimed to improve access to air pollution control information by requiring air quality management districts to provide permit information on an internet website. This would have made it easier for the public to find and understand air quality permits and regulations. However, the bill ultimately did not pass.

Supporters of AB 1305 would argue that the bill was a necessary step towards greater transparency in air quality management. By making permit information accessible online, it would empower communities to engage more actively in air pollution issues and hold industries accountable for their emissions.

Critics of AB 1305 might contend that the bill was an unnecessary measure that would impose additional burdens on air quality management districts. They could argue that existing processes already provide sufficient access to permit information, and that the bill could lead to increased government spending without meaningful benefits.
