California Senate Resolution Recognizes UV+EB Technology and RadTech
The California State Senate has adopted a resolution recognizing the many benefits of ultraviolet (UV) and electron beam (EB) technologies, and the contributions of RadTech–The UV+EB Technology Non Profit Trade Association. Senator Mike Morrell (R) representing the 23rd CA Senate District, covering portions of Riverside, San Bernardino and Los Angeles Counties, spearheaded the effort. “This California State Senate resolution will encourage adoption of pollution prevention technologies while retaining manufacturing jobs in California,” says Rita Loof, RadTech Director of Environmental Affairs. “UV+EB technology has already been recognized on various occasions by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) and the City of Los Angeles, and we welcome the statewide recognition.”
The SCAQMD and City of Los Angeles presented RadTech Clean Air Awards for Advancement in Air Pollution Control Technology. The SCAQMD has also recently deemed UV+EB technology as a “control strategy” in its Air Quality Management Plan; and the technology is also listed as a Best Available Control Technology and is exempt from many SCAQMD regulations.
