CSR 10-6.350 64 KB
The purpose of this rule is to reduce the emissions of nitrogen oxides
(NOx) and establish a NOx emissions trading program for the state of
Missouri. The reductions in NOx emissions will reduce the transport
of ozone and its precursors within the state of Missouri and to other
states as required under the Clean Air Act.
