Stricter controls urged as California smog rises
California faces heavier smog by 1985 unless tighter rules curb industrial pollution. Tom Quinn of the Air Resources Board warns Bay Area and southern counties, including Los Angeles and San Bernardino, may see more deaths and hospitalizations with a shift to dirtier fuels amid natural gas shortages. He seeks more federal gas for California and notes vehicles cause about 70 percent of smog while stationary sources account for 30 percent.

State ARB to require stack monitors next year in California
The author reports that by 1985 split projections may shift with stationary sources at 70 percent. The ARB has historically underfunded stationary source control, leaving it to local districts, with little emphasis outside the San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles. The ARB will push for stack monitoring and may restrict new plants unless existing sources are cleaned up. Authorities also seek a shooter in a Route 99 fog death of Lucia Gonzales Redondo, aided by an off duty officer and husband.
