Canada-United States Air Quality Agreement
In 1991, Canada and the United States signed a bilateral Air Quality Agreement (view Agreement) to provide a practical and flexible instrument to deal with shared problems of transboundary air pollution. The United States-Canada Air Quality Committee issues a report every two years on progress in implementing the Agreement. In addition, Article IX of the Agreement directs the International Joint Commission (IJC) to invite public comment on each progress report, to prepare a synthesis of the comments received, and to release the synthesis to the public after submitting it to the two governments.
