Air Toxics Advisory Committee (ATAC)

Maine DEP invited stakeholders from a broad range of perspectives to form the MATI's Air Toxics Advisory Committee (ATAC). ATAC has the responsibility to rank air toxic priorities in the state and to develop cost-effective and expedient strategies to reduce the risk. The group strives for consensus decision making. Thirty-three organizations have agreed to participate to date. These groups represent potentially impacted urban and rural areas, environmental organizations, government programs, industry and trade groups, and public health organizations.

The table below lists all organizations contacted participating on the ATAC and a status code indicating their degree of participation. Status codes are as follows:

Primary Contact - The participant has agreed to serve on the ATAC and is the organization's primary participant
Alternate - The participant will serve as an alternate to the organization's primary participant
Technical Resource - The participant provides specialized, technical expertise to the ATAC

A complete list of individuals and organizations invited to participate in the MATI process is also available (Excel, 102 Kb).
