Levy, Jr, J A

Cognizant of the complexity of the acid rain issue and its potential importance, the Texas Energy and Natural Resources Advisory Council (TENRAC) has undertaken the development of a coherent, organized plan to investigate acid deposition in Texas. As a prerequisite to the plan, a preliminary evaluation of the problem nationwide and its relevance to the State of Texas has been completed. The available body of knowledge suggests that acid deposition is not a problem of immediate concern throughout most of Texas. The potential for a problem in the future may exist, however, in parts of east Texas where acid precipitation has been monitored and where the areas most sensitive to potential acid deposition effects are found.
