KUSP
KUSP’s spring supplemental pledge drive starts tomorrow morning. It will continue until Monday morning, June 11th, and you can actually do something about that pledge drive right now, by directing your browser to the KUSP website. I donate to KUSP because I just love that Land Use Report thing. Well, and all that other great programming, too! The address you are looking for is www.kusp.org. Check out the Land Use Report blog after pushing that “donation” button.
Here’s another “heads up.” I don’t talk too much about air quality issues here on the Land Use Report, mostly because our air quality is so good. However, one of the reasons that our air quality is so good is that we work at it. The Monterey Bay Unified Air Pollution Control District implements local rules that are part of an overall “State Implementation Plan,” or SIP. This SIP, in turn, implements standards set by the federal Clean Air Act. I invite listeners to find out just how the process works by attending an APCD Advisory Committee meeting tomorrow, at 1:30 p.m., at the offices of the Air Pollution Control District, 24580 Silver Cloud Court, in Monterey.
There is more information at kusp.org/land use. And don’t forget that “donation” button on the way.
