The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has issued an Ozone Action Day for the Austin area for Friday, July 26, 2019.

Atmospheric conditions are expected to be favorable for producing high levels of ozone air pollution in the Austin area tomorrow.  You can help prevent ozone pollution by teleworking (with prior management approval), sharing a ride, walking or riding a bicycle, taking your lunch to work, avoiding drive-through lanes, conserving energy, and keeping your vehicle properly tuned.
