Business can help improve air quality on Ozone Action Days by:

• Make certain vehicle fleets are refueled before an Ozone Action Day.
• Avoid lawn and shrub maintenance with gasoline-powered equipment.
• Encourage employees to work at home on Ozone Action Days. For those employees who must work on-site, businesses can encourage them to carpool, vanpool or ride public transportation.
• Rearrange work schedules when possible, using flextime, compressed work weeks and conference calls instead of driving to meetings.
• Reduce power demand (turn off lights and turn down the air conditioning).
• Limit the use of solvent-based paints or degreasers until after 7:00 p.m.
