Comprised of members from industry, government and environmental organizations, the Williams Lake Air Quality Roundtable meets twice yearly to discuss, share, and advance air quality related issues in the local airshed. The goals of the WL Air Quality Roundtable, as reflected in the Airshed Management Plan, are to:

• ensure that identified contributing sources are using the best technology available to treat air emissions
• use Pollution Prevention Plans to systematically reduce point and fugitive sources of industrial pollution
• encourage dust control measures at strategic locations in the airshed
• facilitate better regulation of all types of burning
• suggest innovative approaches to reducing emissions from all types of motor vehicles
