The Central Texas Clean Air Coalition, herein after known as the " CLEAN AIR COALITION " , is a voluntary, unincorporated association which became linked with the Capital Area Planning Council (CAPCO) by a resolution that was adopted November 13, 2002.

The purpose of the CLEAN AIR COALITION is:

To facilitate the development, adoption and implementation of a clean air plan to maintain compliance with the federal 8-hour ozone standard for the counties of Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Travis and Williamson,
To establish and monitor a regional effort toward the improvement of air quality,
To develop policies and strategies that will provide guidance for each of its independent governing bodies about actions that will achieve clean air in Central Texas,
To work cooperatively to achieve clean air standards that will protect public health and yet allow local governments the flexibility to select measures best-suited to each community's needs and resources.
