[Criteria for the establishment of emission limit values]
Abstract:
The Swiss Environmental Protection Law provides the setting of Air Quality Standards to assess the harmfulness or annoyance of air pollutants. Moreover the law contains some criteria which have to be taken into account for setting the standards. It is essential that protection of man and his environment are the only criteria to determine the level of the Air Quality Standards, whereas economic and political considerations haven't to be taken into account. Particular emphasis has to be given to the information obtained from risk groups of higher susceptibility with respect to pollutants. Problems arising from the transformation of scientific knowledge and experience into measurable and controllable Air Quality Standards which meet the legal requirements are pointed out.
