During general public comment on May 14, a community member urged the council to include Denver International Airport (DIA) when considering NOx‑reduction strategies.

Terrence, identified on the record as a public commenter, told the board that “NOx is fungible” and urged RACC to apply the same emphasis to airport emissions that it places on lawn‑and‑garden controls. He also referenced two letters presented at an earlier meeting: one from Michael Ogletree that, in Terrence’s summary, asserted past policies and control strategies have not improved ozone in the region, and a second from an Intermountain West group urging executive‑level engagement with the EPA. “I think the RACC really needs to make some significant changes,” Terrence said.

The council did not take action during the meeting in response to Terrence’s comments. Staff noted the comment for program and planning consideration and cited ongoing outreach to federal and state agencies as part of larger control‑strategy discussions.

Ending: Terrence’s remarks were entered into the record; staff indicated they will consider airport emissions when evaluating control strategies and stakeholder outreach.
