Abstract
Two acts by the California Legislature brought about changes in the State's air pollution programs. The Mulford-Carrell Air Resources Act of 1967 coordinated the State's programs, created a new agency, the Air Resources Board, and expanded the State's control authority to include nonvehicular sources of air pollution. The Pure Air Act of 1968 established new and more stringent standards for motor vehicle emissions, and strengthened the motor vehicle emission control program of the state. Under these new acts, the board was assigned a number of powers and duties. Some of these dealt primarily with nonvehicular pollution control, some with motor vehicle pollution control, and some are applicable to both programs.
