Springfield, like many other communities, works to protect people and the environment from the effects of pollution. Although the air quality in Springfield meets federal air quality standards, the growing number of people, businesses and industry all combine with our climate and topography to create potential air pollution problems.
The Outdoor Air Quality Section promotes and protects public health.
