7) While it is understandable that the EPA would desire to increase public safety by revising standards for ground level ozone production and concentration, in reality this move is not entirely necessary. As business owners and operators, you know all too well the incessant environmental regulation can create significant operational difficulties and reduce if to eliminate profitability, often with no effect on environmental risks or damage. The EPA itself has found that ground-level ozone quickly dissipates and presents a minimal danger to health if properly vented and dispersed, yet they are revising regulations as a means of improving health -- their own science seems at odds with their...

The dangers caused y ozone emissions are also less than those caused by other gases, and in fact it is often in interactions with other pollutants that ozone actually produces a health threat (EPA 2011). Again, this is according to the EPA's own research making it that much more difficult to understand what their rationale is for constraining business further in this regard.
