Show 1 '1 n wHXnnf y The Si,It Lake Tribune EPA Misinterpreting Clean Air Law? Tribune Washington Bureau WASHINGTON The Environmental Protection Agency has "misthe federal clean air interpreted law in trying to penalize areas that failed to meet air quality standards by Dec. 31, 1982, Salt Lake City Mayor Ted Wilson said Thursday. Mayor Wilson made his comment after meeting with Sen. Jake Gam, on Capitol Hill to discuss his views on the threatened sanctions. The EPA has misinterpreted the Clean Air Act, Mayor Wilson said. "It doesn't need to impose sanc-- . tions." He said he believes EPAs Jan. 31 announcement to apply sanctions was politically motivated to Induce Congress to amend (weaken) the clean air law. Sen. Gam, formerly mayor of Salt Lake City, also maintained that EPA "is being way too restrictive. Its like being in the twilight zone, he said in reference to similar disputes be had with tKe federal gov- - ' , ' ernment as mayor. Theres a point where this becomes Harassment, he said. Mayor Wilson contended the, car Inspection and maintainance program that EPA is mandating for the Salt Lake City metropolitan area is unreasonable because the area will be in compliance without such a program by 1983 anyway. The program would merely accelerate the areas compliance with carbon monoxide standards by 13 months, and at a substantial co according to Mayor Wilson. Sanctions Issue At issue is whether the existing laws sanctions are meant to apply to areas whose air fell short of the standards as of Dec. 31, 1982, or whether the sanctions are to be applied only to areas that failed to de . r, velop and carry out ing up the air. a plan for t lean- Mayor Wilson and the U S Conference of Mayors, which held an emergency meeting on the issue here Thursday, contend that the ter interpretation is correct. But EPA Assistant Administrator Kathleen M. Bennett maintains any plan which failed to bring the air up to federal standards was defective and thus the state is subject to sanctions. lat- Caught in Catch-2- 2 No sanctions will be imposed immediately because EPA must go g through a required process that will take at least six months. The EPA has been caught m over the issomething of a Catch-2sue. The agency has been regularly criticized as being too lax in enforc rules-makin- 2 ing environmental laws, but now finds itself accused of being too zealous. Mayor Wilson said he didnt know anyone who would accuse (EPA) of being too flexible if it didnt impose sanctions on areas that had developed a clean air plan. Sen. Garn added, I find it rather strange that theyre being so strict on this issue. Theres a difference between not enforcing the law and going beyond the intent of Congress. Sen. Gam said he did not believe Congress had to change existing laws to prevent EPA from imposing sanctions, which involves a cutoff of federal funds for clean air and highway programs. He said a resolution clarifying congressional intent under law may be the best route to Fiidav, February lfl, Bl 1983 ....
