The Dallas-Fort Worth Photochemical Modeling Technical Committee (DFW PMTC) is a TCEQ advisory group organized to assist the agency in addressing technical and scientific issues relating to air quality modeling for the Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) area. The Committee includes representatives from industry, county and city government, environmental groups, and the public.
Participating in the DFW PMTC
Anyone who is interested in these topics may attend this advisory group’s meetings and participate in the discussion. If you have any question about this advisory group or would like to be added to a mailing list for the group, please send an e-mail to amda@tceq.texas.gov with “DFW PMTC” in the subject line.
