STATE AND LOCAL AGENCIES Your questions and concerns about indoor air problems can frequently be answered most readily by the government agencies in your State or locality. Responsibilities for indoor air quality issues are usually divided among many different agencies. You will often find that calling or writing the agencies responsible for health or air quality control is the best way to start getting information from your State or local government. The EPA and Public Health Foundation publication, Directory of State Indoor Air Contacts, lists State agency contacts. (See publications list for information on ordering this publication.)
