During her tenure on the commission, Milford and her fellow members have strengthened emissions regulations for the oil and gas industry and adopted standards to maintain progress in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from light-duty cars and trucks.

鈥淚'm looking forward to working with the commission in the coming year to further advance 欧美口爆视频's goals for improving our air quality, especially for reducing ozone pollution. The 欧美口爆视频 legislature just passed several new laws addressing oil and gas emissions and climate change, so we'll have a busy year developing regulations to implement their requirements.鈥
