Introduction
On December 2, 1970, the President
created the Environmental Protection
Agency and named William Doyle
Ruckelshaus as Administrator. Air pol-
lution, water pollution, solid wastes
management, radiation protection, and
pesticide control programs were joined
in a new Agency that possesses a great-
ly strengthened ability and a unique
coherence in the struggle to improve
and to control the quality of man's en-
vironment.
In the same month, the President
signed the Clean Air Act of 1970. The
impact of this action on both the
public and the private sectors of the
country will be far-reaching. The Man-
power Development Staff of the
Office of Air Programs has acted to
meet the demand, created by the Act,
for more and far better-trained practi-
tioners in the field of air pollution
control.
During Fiscal Year 1972, more than
3000 trainees completed courses con-
ducted by the Institute for Air Pollu-
tion Training.
Through university training pro-
grams administered by the Special Pro-
jects Branch of the Manpower Dev-
elopment Staff, the following were
trained:
Fiscal Year 1971
140 Technician
60 Bachelor of Science
200 Master of Science
60 Doctor of Philosophy
4 Post Doctoral
Fiscal Year 1972
125 Technician
50 Bachelor of Science
175 Master of Science
50 Doctor of Philosophy
4 Post-doctoral
The Office of Air Programs has also
supported the following number of
individual fellowships to complete spe-
cific research projects:
Fiscal Year 1971 42
Fiscal Year 1972 44
The computer-based simulation ex-
ercise APEX {Air Pollution Exercise) is
being widely accepted throughout the
country. Twelve universities now
utilize the program in their graduate
environmental courses. Demonstra-
tions of the program continue to be
conducted at other universities in re-
sponse to a growing number of re-
quests. In addition, the program has
been initiated in the Regional Office
areas for their staffs and other environ-
mental training specialists. The de-
mand has been so great that it was
necessary to develop and establish a
new course, "Environmental Training
Simulations," to train university facul-
ties and other training specialists in the
use of APEX as well as in the
application of other simulation
exercises that are available through the
Institute for Air Pollution Training.
The Institute for Air Pollution
Training, headquartered at the Re-
search Triangle Park, North Carolina;
designs, develops, and conducts a
variety of training courses, seminars,
and workshops. The primary objective
of the Institute is to develop and im-
prove the knowledge and skills of per-
sonnel employed in air pollution con-
trol activities. To implement the En-
vironmental Protection Agency's de-
centralization policy that was designed
primarily to bring expertise to local
problem areas, the Institute for Air
Pollution Training has expanded its
course offerings to the training loca-
tions in each region.
The Institute for Air Pollution
Training presents a three-tiered plan
for training air pollution control per-
sonnel.
First Tier — Orientation Courses
Packaged instructional courses are
supplied to state and local agencies to
enable a new employee to begin his
training immediately after reporting
on the job.
Course 422-A, "Introduction to Air
Pollution Control," is an orientation
course composed of a set of packages
that represent the revised version of
course 422-A, which was validated
during FY 71-72. The instructional
packages are: Air Pollution Law, Air
Pollutants and Their Sources, Effects
-------
of Air Pollution, Sampling and Anal-
ysis of Air Pollutants, Control Tech-
niques for Gases and Particulates,
Meteorology in Air Pollution Control,
Air Pollution Control Regulations, Air
Quality Management and Enforcement
Systems.
Course 422-B is a series of printed
booklets in a programmed instruction
format. The packages include: Air
Pollution Effects on Man, Air Pollu-
tion Effects on Vegetation, Air Pollu-
tion Meteorology, Legal Aspects of Air
Pollution Control, Sources and Pollu-
tants and Air Pollution Control
Technology.
Course 422-C consists of. a series of
instructional packages that provide an
examination of air pollution in greater
depth. These mini-courses feature
special areas of air pollution control
that are not generally covered in
courses 422-A and 422-B.
The broad content of these orienta-
tion courses makes them particularly
useful for all new state and Federal air
pollution control agency employees.
Schools, environmental education pro-
grams, and industries can use the
materials to introduce key employees
to the study of air pollution control.
Second Tier - Basic Course
"Principles and Practice of Air
Pollution Control," the basic training
course, provides a broad understanding
of air pollution control in addition to
the development and application of
selected skills. This 2-Week course is
offered 10 times each year at the
National Environmental Research
Center, Research Triangle Park, North
Carolina. This basic course — or its
equivalent in graduate training or in air
pollution control experience — is a
prerequisite for entry into the advan-
ced courses. The course is strongly re-
commended for all new professional
and technical employees as soon as
possible after entry on the job.
Third Tier — Advanced Courses
A number of advanced courses are
conducted by the Institute for Air
Pollution Training. Highly-specialized
courses, ranging from one to two
weeks in duration, provide intensive
training, usually at the graduate level,
in air quality management, and the
current elements and methodology of
air pollution control. Several of the
courses provide opportunities for ex-
tensive laboratory practice. These are
described in the Advanced Engineering
and Enforcement and the Advanced
Surveillance and Laboratory course de-
scriptions.
Special Training
The new laboratory facilities, pro-
vided for the Institute's training acti-
vities located in the National Environ-
mental Research Center, now make it
possible to provide special training
beyond formal courses. The training is
available to laboratory and surveillance
personnel. This special training em-
phasizes the application of reference
methods performed on an individual
basis. Consideration will also be given
to other problem areas.

Eligibility Requirements
An acceptance committee within the
Manpower Development Staff evaluates
course applications forwarded to the
Institute for Air Pollution Training and
notifies applicants whether they meet the
qualifications requirements for the course
or courses selected. An important
consideration in evaluating eligibility is
the applicant's background, experience in
air pollution control, and potential for
career development. The broad spectrum
of courses offered by the Institute ranges
from basic training designed for personnel
with little or no experience to highly
specialized learning modes designed to
meet the needs of more sophisticated air
pollution control personnel. Many
courses require completion of written
tests and/or study assignments by the
applicant prior to course attendance.
-------
Registration
Since the size of classes is limited,
applications should be forwarded as early
as possible. Students must be registered at
least two weeks in advance of course
starting date in order to receive
pre-course learning materials. Trainees are
expected to provide for their own
housing, meals, and transportation while
attending courses. To provide training
service to a maximum number of
organizations the number of applicants
from a single agency for any one course
necessarily may be limited. To apply for
admission to the courses presented by the
Institute complete one of the application
blanks inserted in this bulletin on pp.
98 to 108. A separate application form
is required for each course.
Certificates
Certificates will be awarded to those
students who satisfactorily complete all
course assignments and who attend all
scheduled presentations (including where
applicable: evening, Friday afternoon and
Saturday sessions).
Training Faculty
A full-time staff of specialists, as well as a
number of adjunct faculty members,
plan, develop, and conduct the courses.
Lecturers and consultants who can
contribute significantly from their
specific knowledge and experience are
drawn from Office of Air Programs
personnel, other Federal, state and local
agencies, universities, and industry.

The National Environmental
Research Center at Research Triangle
Park, North Carolina
In
The Office of Air Programs (GAP) is one part of the
United States Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) . . . the operating responsibility for the Federal
Program in the prevention and control of air pollu-
tion is vested with OAP.
The headquarters for OAP,
located in Washington, D.C. comprises a staff
dedicated to the management and administration of
operational programs.
Ten regional offices,
located throughout the country, provide technical as-
sistance in the establishment of environmental quality
standards.
The mobile source activities,
of OAP located in Ann Arbor, Michigan comprise
professional staff with responsibility for tr*
development of new technology for increased contrO
of pollution from spark-ignited internal cornbustioi
vehicles and a development program of advance*
power systems.
-------
The National Environmental Research Center
located in the Research Triangle Park, North Caro-
lina, encompasses a staff of eight hundred whose
talents are directed toward research and development
activities to provide the technology to regulate or pre-
vent emissions of pollutants into the atmosphere.
Encompassing fifty acres and 300,000 square feet
of working area, the new Environmental Center is
located within close proximity of other research
oriented government and industrial organizations. . .
Functioning as a self contained facility, the "Center"
represents an investment of 25-million dollars, nearly
one-quarter of which is directed toward specialized
equipment and innovative devices to meet the objec-
tives of the Environmental Protection Agency.
Research activities
relating to health effects will include biologic, physio-
logic, and toxicological studies as well as laboratory
animal studies.
Irradiation chambers designed to simulate sunlight
and produce a photochemical reaction in auto ex-
haust gas will be employed; spark-ignited and diesel
engines coupled to a dynamometer unit designed to
produce exhaust according to established driving pat-
terns constitute the integrated equipment.. . . emis-
sions proportionally diluted with clean conditioned
air under regulated pressure will be fed to exposure
chambers designed to house a variety of animal
species for extended exposure periods under con-
trolled conditions.
Ancillary equipment
includes tissue culture preparation areas, spectropho-
tometers foi identification of organic and inorganic
contaminants, liquid chromatographs for detection
and measurement of higher molecular hydrocar-
bons. . , . particle counters, digital integrators, and gas
chromatographs. . . .
Greenhouse Facility
will have filtered air to remove gaseous and particu-
late pollutants. Temperature controls of 70° F can be
maintained. Plant materials grown in these green-
houses will be exposed under greenhouse, field-plot,
and laboratory conditions. There will be two green-
houses, each having four compartments. In each
compartment, environmental parameters can be con-
trolled independently.
-------
A Field research site
of approximately twenty acres adjacent to the Tech-
nical Center will provide another valuable laboratory
for agricultural research efforts. Included on this farm
site will be ten acres of land to be used for extensive
research plot studies and a farm equipment building
to house the necessary support facilities. The Division
of Meteorology will monitor all meteorological para-
meters in support of the agricultural research. To aid
in this support there will be a 300 foot meteorologi-
cal tower. The Soil Conservation Service has assumed
a major role in the land development of this site. This
has involved an extensive land smoothing and ter-
racing program.
Research activities in the areas of effects of air
pollutants on vegetation, plants, animals, I'ivestock,
wildlife, materials, paints, structures, metals, plastics,
fabrics and dyes will be conducted on a laboratory
scale.
Two systems
of plant growth chambers
will be used:
Controlled Environment System
Twenty-five chambers will be used for plant growth,
in a pollution-free atmosphere and in a known repro-
ducible environment. In addition, there will be 10
chambers with separate air supplies in which pollu-
tant exposure can be controlled.
Field Environment System
Twenty-five plant growth chambers, through which
ambient air is circulated, will be used with crops
planted in the field. In some cases the ambient air
pollutants are filtered out prior to the air entering the
chambers and in others, pollutants are added in
known amounts. Also there are cylindrical chambers,
open at the top. The environmental conditions in
these chambers follow the real world even more close-
ly than the square chamber in that insects, rain, sun-
light, etc., can enter the chambers directly. In these
chambers, air is circulated and ambient level pollutant
studies can be done or various pollutants can be
added as desired.
Exploratory research
to evaluate the feasibility of new control pro-
cesses and concepts; conduct applied research
related to specific processes under develop-
ment .. . continual research efforts of sampling
methods and analytical procedures.
-------
An IBM System 360 Model 50 is installed in the new Technical
Center. Air quality emission data, meteorological and effects data
relating to areas nationwide will constitute the national air pollution
data base accessible from this central facility. Abstracts of the tech-
nical literature for the past several years are indexed on this equip-
ment.
The Manpower Development Staff occupies 28,000 square feet of
space in the new Environmental Research Center. Approximately 33
percent of this space is devoted to laboratories that are used by
students attending courses at the Institute for Air Pollution Training.
Other features include an auditorium designed to accommodate 150
to 200 people, and three classrooms with a capacity of 50 students
each. The classrooms contain the capability for both a central
motion picture and television projection. A self-instructional labora-
tory equipped with learning carrels for utilization of computer-
assisted program material and for individual learning packages is also
available to the students. An additional feature is a 3800 square foot
television and motion picture studio and sound stage designed for
the production of learning materials; the studio is supported by fully
equipped film editing and processing facilities.

SPECIAL
INSTRUCTIONAL
RESOURCES
A number of specialized learning resources are being
utilized as part of the Institute's instructional pro-
gram. Traditional printed resources such as manuals
and reference materials have been expanded to in-
clude learning materials in non-print form. An
individual learning laboratory has been set up wherein
the student may use any of the available learning
materials at his own pace, regardless of which media
format is utilized. Individual learning carrells provide
access to materials in all media, from video tape and
computer programs to audio cassettes and filmstrips.
Every effort has been made to provide instruc-
tional materials in a format that does not require
knowledge of complicated instructional hardware. In-
cluded in the resources available to the students are
all of the self-instructional packages contained in
courses 422-A, 422-B, and 422-C, as well as a wide
variety of audio tapes, video tapes, slide packages,
and related instructional materials.
Two computerized simulation programs are also
available to students. One, a Strategy Effectiveness
Model, allows individual students to determine the
cost and effectiveness of various control equipment in
24
-------
a simulated community. The student in this program
of study applies theoretical knowledge in a realistic
situation and evaluates the results of his control
strategies. The other model is an urban simulation
exercise, APEX, which utilizes group interpretation in
the decision-making process. This model, presently in
use at more than 30 colleges and universities, provides
for role-playing in the operation of a simulated urban
community. This simulation provides students with
two immediate and vital benefits:
1. A means is provided for working application of
theoretical knowledge; the learner applies infor-
mation and skills to "real-life" situations. In
addition, motivation directed toward additional
learning results from participation in seeking solu-
tions to the problems.
2. A focus is provided for solving problems
through an interdisciplinary approach, whereby
the interrelationships between "formal" areas of
study and application become evident.
Additional simulations are being developed both
for direct instruction and for translation of theo-
retical knowledge to practical skills.
Orientation - Level Instructional Materials
The Institute for Air Pollution Training has developed
a number of instructional packages for individual stu-
dent use. Federal, state, and local agencies involved in
air pollution control work have received two sets of
orientation-level instructional materials (courses
422-A and 422-B). Each set provides new employees,
or employees with little or no air pollution control
experience, with a broad understanding of air pollu-
tion-its sources, effects, and control methods.
A third set of materials (course 422-C) represents a
continuing series of packages providing greater scope
and depth in specific areas of air pollution control
than the packages contained in courses 422-A and
422-B.
All of these materials have been prepared for indi-
vidual student use with specific learning objectives
listed for each package. Students may proceed at
their own pace through the materials, skipping
packages covering familiar material, and repeating
packages in which they experience difficulty in
reaching the objectives. Each package is first devel-
oped in a validation or draft form, for evaluation by
subject specialists and students, in order to provide
substantive revision information in both content
accuracy and learning effectiveness.

ORIENTATION
COURSES
Afr Pollution Orientation Course
This orientation course is composed of a set of
packages that represents the revised version of course
422-A, which was validated during FY 71-72. The
entire content has been updated especially in the
rapidly changing legal and control technology areas.
The presentation format which has been revised, is

Introduction to Air Pollution Control
This introductory course, an adaptation of the
original Computer-Assisted Instruction course has
been put into a series of printed booklets in a pro-
grammed-instruction format The course may now be
utilized by agencies that do not have continuous
access to computer terminals. The packages in this
course provide users with a basic introduction to the
field of air pollution control. Because each package is
an independent entity, students may not only pro-
ceed at their own pace, but may also choose their
own sequence of packages. This course is still in the
process of validation, and each package will be made
available to air pollution control agencies as it is com-
pleted. The packages in 422-B include:
Air Pollution Effects on Man
Air Pollution Effects on Materials
Air Pollution Effects on Vegetation
Air Pollution Meteorology
Legal Aspects of Air Pollution Control
Sources and Pollutants
Air Pollution Control Technology
Special Subjects in Air Pollution Control
These materials, which are a series of independent
learning packages utilizing a variety of medium for-
mats, include audio cassette tapes, 8mm film car-
tridges or filmstrips, and printed support materials.
Specified learning objectives, along with a method of
self-evaluation, are provided as part of each package.
These self-instructional materials are intended for use
after courses 422-A and 422-B. They provide greater
scope and depth in specific areas of air pollution con-
trol than the broad orientation materials contains in
courses 422-A and 422-B. In some cases, they also
form part of the required pre-course instruction for
certain advanced courses listed in this bulletin. 422-C,
Special Subjects in Air Pollution Control, is not in-
tended as a specific course, but rather as a continuing
series of self-instructional packages developed to meet
specific learning needs. Areas covered will include:
Laboratory Procedures
Meteorology
Legal Aspects
Enforcement
Agencies will be notified as specific packages be-
come available and may obtain these materials to
meet their in-house training needs.

|Course 422-A — or equivalent experience - is a pre-
requisite for course 452.
The responsibility of the Federal Government's
Office of Air Programs to provide leadership and
assistance to state and local air pollution control
agencies in the recruitment and development of quali-
fied personnel is a major theme of the 1970 Clean Air
Act.
To meet these growing manpower needs, class-
room, laboratory, and field training are combined in
this intensive 10-day course in air pollution control
conducted by the Institute for Air Pollution Training.
This basic 10-day course provides a comprehensive
introduction to the technology of air pollution con-
trol. The student receives classroom training in the
principles and practice of pollution control techno-
logy, legal bases for control, meteorology, and pro-
gram administration. Additional classroom training
and laboratory practice develop basic skills related to
sampling, plume evaluation, laboratory analyses, field
studies, and data evaluation.

The responsibility of the Federal Government's
Office of Air Programs to provide leadership and
assistance to State and local air pollution control
agencies in the recruitment and development of
qualified personnel is a major theme of the 1970
Clean Air Act. The Office of Air Programs, (OAP) in
conjunction with the University of Southern Cali-
fornia and the University of Michigan, has created
and developed a simulation exercise identified as
APEX (Air Pollution Exercise). This exercise estab-
lishes a dynamic atmosphere in which the trainees
participate in a "real world" simulation involving a
community with urban and rural problems, industrial
activities, and a variety of air pollution control
problems.
Current and projected uses of APEX have been
developed through several of the University Consortia
established in conjunction with OAP's Manpower
Development Staff.
This urban simulation exercise, presently in use at
more than 35 colleges and universities, provides the
trainees with role playing opportunities in the
operation of a simulated urban community. The use
of simulation exercises for the training of air pollu-
tion control professionals offers two immediate and
vital benefits:
1. A means is provided for a working application
of theoretical knowledge; the learner applies infor-
mation and skills to "real life" situations. In addi-
tion, motivation directed toward additional
learning results from participation in seeking solu-
tions to the problems.
2. The focus is provided for solving problems
through an interdisciplinary approach, where the
interrelationship between "formal" areas of study
and appl icat ion becomes evident
Students participating in APEX assume the roles
of a number of decision makers: city and county poli-
ticians, city and county planners, developers, indus-
trialists, air pollution control officers, and concerned
citizens. Realistic data are supplied for each role, and
the students are required to make decisions that are
then analyzed by -the computer. Next, the results of
the decisions are presented as new situational data
representing a year of "actual time". Students partici-
pating in these programs - which place special em-
phasis on air pollution problems — employ a wide
range of skills and knowledge in a variety of areas.
Additional opportunities for growth are provided
through seminars, lectures, texts, and working con-
tact with recognized authorities in a number of
professions.
Within the overall format of the simulation ex-
ercise, emphasis is placed upon specific areas through
the use of special situations, for example, hearings on
air pollution standards or legal actions brought
against a particular industry.
APEX was introduced as a graduate course at the
new National Environmental Research Center in the
fall of 1971 for students from the Triangle Univer-
sities Consortium. In addition to its use at the Univer-
sity of Southern California, APEX is now being con-
ducted as a graduate course at the University of
Illinois at Urbana and at Harvard as part of an Envi-
ronmental Education program for both graduate and
undergraduate studies.
Because of the flexibility of the APEX simulation
exercise, the number of students trained during the
past year, far exceeded the original expectations. For
example, over 300 aerospace engineers and scientists
in New England and California, were retrained using
this urban environmental simulator. Approximately
300 university faculty, control agency personnel, in-
dustrialists, and elected officials have assumed role-
playing positions in APEX programs in California,
Colorado, Florida, Illinois, New York, New Jersey
and Pennsylvania. During the past year over 2000
people have participated in APEX courses and special
programs.

air pollution control are primary responsibilities of
the Special Projects Branch of the Manpower Devel-
opment Staff. Major emphasis is placed upon pro-
viding support and assistance at state and local levels.
Programs are designed to increase the national re-
source of qualified professional and technical man-
power, to make employment opportunities in air
pollution control more attractive to applicants, to
find more efficient means of utilizing existing man-
power, and to upgrade the technical competency of
air pollution control agency personnel.
Manpower planning is essential to the effective
utilization and retention of the air pollution control
multidisciplinary staff. There is no single occupa-
tional field involved in solving air pollution problems,

Current manpower estimates and projected needs
for manpower are major components in manpower
planning. Survey information establishes base data
used to plan manpower development activities such as
manpower training, staffing, and salary upgrading.
The Manpower Development Staff has completed an
upgraded survey of ail 264 state and local air pollu-

has been computerized and will be upgraded regu-
larly. Results of air pollution control surveys are
available to those interested.
In addition to survey data, the Special Projects
Branch maintains updated manpower model projec-
tions for each air quality control region with state
totals. The manpower model involves application of
input parameters such as population, land area, num-
ber of manufacturing establishments, and capital in-
vestments to predictive equations resulting in a man-
years estimate of manpower required in each of the
major functional areas of agency activity. Projected
manpower estimates together with updated man-
power survey information provide data that can be
used in planning a multitude of programs.
In order to better answer questions relevant to air
pollution control agency manpower planning, devel-
opment, and training, a data base has been prepared
which describes the tasks performed by control
agency personnel and the skills and knowledge they
must have to perform those tasks effectively. This
information is being used in planning EPA training

activities and in developing course content and curri-
cula. Task analysis data is also being used to develop
staffing guides for air pollution control agencies.
When completed, this guide will suggest how agencies
can improve their effectiveness through better utili-
zation of manpower.
The Office of Air Programs, in cooperation with
the U.S. Civil Service Commission and air pollution
control agencies, has completed "Guide Class Specifi-
cations for Air Pollution Control Positions in State
and Local Programs" which provides agencies with
illustrative materials that can be used in developing
job specifications for their air pollution control per-
sonnel. This Guide is available from the Special Pro-
jects Branch, Manpower Development Staff, Office of
Air Programs.
In addition to those activities just described, the
Special Projects Branch is engaged in other projects
related to manpower development. Salary studies
both in the public and private sectors provide infor-
mation useful to states in establishing equitable salary
levels. Projects such as occupational qualification
tests for air pollution control personnel are being
planned to provide state and local governments with
current information that can be used in improving
manpower programs.
The Special Projects Branch also administers pro-
grams which provide university grants, tratneeships,
and special fellowships for students seeking full-time
training in air pollution control or related subjects at
universities and other institutions of higher learning.
Air pollution training grants assist public and other
nonprofit institutions in establishing, expanding, and
improving training opportunities for individuals in-
terested in a career in air pollution control.
Tuition and stipend assistance to students may be
provided through traineeships from the grant institu-
tions or through fellowships by the Office of Air Pro-
grams. Additional information on training grant and
fellowship programs is located in the latter part of
this booklet.
Air pollution control manpower and training pro-
grams are developed under policy guidelines esta-
blished by the Assistant Administrator for Planning
and Management and are implemented with the assis-
tance of the Manpower Representatives of the ten
EPA Regional Offices. A close liaison is maintained
with manpower and training programs of other
Federal agencies.

University
Consortia
for Environmental
Protection
Groups of major universities are redirec-
ting their talents and resources toward a
new effort to combat air pollution and
other environmental protection problems
through the formation of university con-
sortia. While initially their efforts are con-
centrated on air pollution control, it is
expected that they will gradually expand
to embrace other critical environmental
areas. Constituted to increase capability
in solving multidisciplinary problems re-
quiring the competence and resources of
varied institutions, consortia are not
meant to represent individual strengths of
the participating universities, but rather
to combine these strengths into an inte-
grated coherent effort. At present, four
consortia have been formally established
and are now in various stages of devel-
opment.
A consortium is designed to have mea-
surable impact upon environmental con-
trol through its training program and ser-
vice activities. A major responsibility of a
consortium is to plan, design, and con-
duct a coordinated training program, pri-
marily at the master's level, directed at air
pollution control. While embracing tradi-
tional areas such as meteorology, emis-
sion control, and sampling and analysis,
the program also involves land-use plan-
ning, transportation planning, legislation,
economic and related effects, implemen-
tation plan development, standard set-
ting, and episode control plans. The pro-
gram is basically oriented toward problem
solving. Supported by the faculties of the
participating universities, a consortium
eliminates the need for duplicated pro-
grams in the individual universities and
provides superior training to a greater
number at a lower cost per student than
could be furnished by individual univer-
sities. Such training programs are attrac-
tive to industry as well as public control
agencies, because both require personnel
with similar knowledge and skills.
Dr. John T. Middleton, Deputy Assis-
tant Administrator for Air Programs, has
said that air pollution is a social problem.
He believes that its solution depends up-
on public understanding and political ac-
tion. Assistance in these areas will be of
prime concern to consortia universities.
Dr. Harry P. Kramer, Director, Man-
power Development Staff, said that new,
more effective efforts are essential to
meet the qualitative and quantitative
manpower needs of State and local con-
trol agencies. A concurrent need exists to
develop a system to provide a broad spec-
trum of technical assistance to these agen-
cies. For example, faculty members
aligned with consortia, and consortia as
organizations, will become involved with
lawmakers, planners, citizens' groups, and
most importantly, with State and local
agency directors by furnishing technical
services and other assistance in dealing
with long-range problems. Opportunities
for student involvment in such activities
provide valuable experience in this
training and development.
