Public Health Air Quality Act of 2025
The Public Health Air Quality Act of 2025 requires the Environmental Protection Agency to implement comprehensive monitoring of hazardous air pollutants at specific facilities posing the greatest health risks. It mandates fenceline monitoring for pollutants like benzene, formaldehyde, and ethylene oxide at facilities in census tracts with elevated cancer risks or other health impacts, and requires deployment of 80 additional air quality monitoring stations in communities disproportionately affected by pollution. The EPA must publish all monitoring data publicly within 7 days of collection in accessible formats and multiple languages, with data maintained for at least 10 years. The bill allocates $146 million for implementation in fiscal years 2026-2027 to support this monitoring network.
