Temecula, CA 92592
Why
We Oppose the Plan
The SWCLC opposes the Air Quality Plan for several
reasons. First, it calls for more regulations on
gas, electricity, and water agencies in Southern
California only forcing more regulations on most
businesses that already meet or exceed SCAQMD’s
regulations.
Second, much of
Southern California’s natural gas is imported from
out-of-state producers. The SWCLC believes that the
Plan impedes our gas companies’ ability to use
out-of-state natural gas impacting availability and
reliability of natural gas supply.

Business Community Protects Interests in Regional
Air Quality Plan
The Southwest California Legislative Council (SWCLC) opposes
the 2007 Air Quality Management Plan (the Plan) as drafted
by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD).
The Plan calls for regulations placed on gas, electricity,
and water agencies in Southern California only forcing more
regulations on most businesses that already meet or exceed
SCAQMD’s regulations. Furthermore, much of Southern
California’s natural gas is imported from out-of-state
producers. The SWCLC believes that the Plan impedes our gas
companies’ ability to use out-of-state natural gas impacting
availability and reliability of natural gas supply.
“The Plan must be economically viable for businesses,”
stated Dennis Frank, SWCLC Chair. “The current draft Plan
places our businesses at a competitive disadvantage,” Frank
continued.
