A little less goes a long way…
In the Spring of 2009, the DEQ offered some funding to private gas station owners to encourage retrofitting their fuel tanks to cut down on vapor emissions that occur during the process of filling tanks.
Gasoline vapors are one of the major causes of ozone. Our State Dept of DEQ needs to be congratulated for their foresight to aid business owners to make this retrofit.
With the aid of efforts like this, we can all breathe a little cleaner air. What can you do?
Those fueling stations that took advantage of the vapor recovery effort are:
| NAMPA GUSHER, Nampa |
| NAMPA , Nampa |
| ON THE FLY/TIGERMART, Boise |
| JUNG ENTERPRISES, Boise |
| 44 Quick Stop, Caldwell |
| Melba Valley Market, Nampa |
| JUSTO’S GROCERY, Eagle |
| JUSTO’S GROCERY, Eagle |
| ULTRA TOUCH CAR WASH, Meridian |
| ULTRA TOUCH CAR WASH, Boise |
| GREENLEAF STORE, Greenleaf |
| PAUL’S GAS & , Kuna |
| STEIN DISTRIBUTING CO INC., Boise |
| SMITH’S CHEVRON, Boise |
| Hertz, Overland West, Boise |
| National Car Rental, Boise |
A little less goes a long way in protecting Idaho's air quality. If everyone drove just 10% less it would significantly reduce harmful air pollution and keep the Treasure Valley under the standards set by the Environmental Protection Agency. Reducing other activities like painting or mowing your lawn on poor air quality days also helps to improve the air we breathe. Exceeding the standards put forth by the EPA can result in increased restrictions and control which impacts economic growth. It's our goal to encourage everyone to do their part... well all breathe a lot easier.
