Formed to strenghten relationships between CASA, the Alberta Airsheds Council and individual airshed zones, this standing committee was formed on the recommendation of the Airshed Zones Board Committee. The Airshed Zones Board Committee mandate was to achieve clarity about the roles and relationships between the CASA Board and the Airshed Zones.

The standing committee will work to:

• ensure effective direct representation of AZs and AAC interest to CASA board members
• assess the effect of CASA recommendations on AZs and AAC, including funding, and respond as required to avoid unexpected impacts on them
• identify and address strategic issues of mutual interest to the CASA board, and AZs and AAC, including issues related to air quality management roles and responsibilities
• monitor implementation of all recommendations made by the Airshed Zones Board Committee in its final report and determine ways to respond if implementation is not proceeding as intended.

Team members include both CASA and Alberta Airsheds Council representatives.
