The Senate report accompanying S. 1894 describes the proposed amendment, including its purpose and the legislative background. The report also reviews the hearings and committee findings, and summarizes potential economic impacts and effects on the budget. S. 1894 is an original bill which amends the Clean Air Act to establish new requirements for areas that have not yet attained health-protective ambient air quality standards, to provide new deadlines for attaining the standards. This would better protect against environmental transport of pollutants and better control sources of acid deposition. A section-by-section analysis makes up most of the report with additional views urging repeal of the Clean Air Act.
