Air Pollution Control and Air Quality at the City of Dallas works to ensure compliance with the regulated industry through air monitoring and surveillance and air quality initiatives.  In addition, air teams coordinate and enforce the federal and state regulations governing air quality to promote and protect the health, safety and well-being of all Dallas communities. 

Comprehensive Environmental Climate Action Plan outlines the specific activities that the city can undertake to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve environmental quality in the city. There are eight major goals with ninety-seven actions.  At this time, the department is actively engaged in ninety-seven of the actions and a dashboard to view the progress is located at dallasclimateaction.com.
