Haze Rules Approved


A citizens board of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has approved revised rules aimed at reducing haze over Voyageurs National Park and the Boundary Waters Canoe Area.

They now go to the federal Environmental Protection Agency for approval.

Changes were made following concerns from Cliff Natural Resources.

Environmental groups say the revisions don't make enough progress toward the goals of cleaner air and better health.
