DESCRIPTION:EPA Sets Public Hearing Dates on Air Quality Standards for Nitrogen 
 Dioxide\n\nWASHINGTON –EPA will hold two public hearings on the 
 agency’s proposal to strengthen the nation’s nitrogen dioxide (NO2) 
 standards. The proposed revisions would establish, for the first time, a 
 one-hour NO2 standard, at a level between 80 and 100 parts per billion 
 (ppb) and would retain the current annual standard of 53 ppb. The proposed 
 changes reflect the latest science on the health effects of exposure to 
 NO2, which is formed by emissions from cars, trucks, buses, power plants, 
 and industrial facilities and can lead to respiratory disease.\n\nThe 
 hearings will be August 3 in Arlington , Va. and August 6 in Los Angeles . 
 Both hearings will begin at 9:00 a.m. and end at 9:00 p.m. local time at 
 the following locations:\n\nNote: Anyone attending the Arlington hearing 
 will need to bring photo identification.\n\nMembers of the public who want 
 to speak at the hearings may pre-register for a specific speaking time by 
 contacting Tricia Crabtree at crabtree.tricia@epa.gov or (919) 541-5688. 
 People also may register in person on the day of the hearing; however, they 
 may not be given a specific time to speak.\n\nEPA also will accept written 
 comments on the proposed rule until Sept. 14, 2009.\n\nMore information on 
 the proposed rule and instructions for submitting written comments:
