WASHINGTON (AP) — Presi
dent Bush’s plan for cleaning up the
nation’s air is unlikely to meet its
goal of eliminating unhealthy levels
of urban smog by the year 2000, the
main author of a new air pollution
report to Congress said Monday.
T he report by the Office of Tech
nology Assessment, which advises
Congress on scientific issues, said
even if all known methods of pollut
ion control are used, many cities will
remain above federal limits for
smog-causing ozone by the end of
the century.
It said residents of the most pol
luted cities — Los Angeles, New
York and Houston — may have to
live with unhealthy levels of smog
for another 20 years or more.
Bush said last month in proposing
a sweeping revision of the 1970
Clean Air Act that his measures
would mean the vast majority of the
approximately 100 cities currently in
violation of ozone limits could gain
compliance by 1995. The president
said all cities would be within the
limits by the end of the century.
The Office of Technology Assess
ment study, which was begun two
years ago, did not specifically ana
lyze the Bush proposal, but Robert
Friedman, the report’s main author,
told a news conference the adminis
tration’s forecast was probably too
rosy.
“I don’t see how they’re going to
do it,” he said. “I hope we are wrong
and they are right, but I fear that
will not be the case.”
He said in an earlier interview
that between 30 and 45 cities proba
bly will still be in violation of the
ozone standard by the year 2000,
even if all available anti-pollution
technologies are used. Among these
are Atlanta, Dallas, San Francisco,
Washington, D.C., Boston, Balti
more and St. Louis, he said.
The report did not include a com
plete list of cities and their prospects
for compliance.
Ozone is formed when hydrocar
bons from car exhaust and other
sources mix in sunlight with nitro
gen oxides released by the burning
of fossil fuels such as petroleum.
Ozone is beneficial in the upper
atmosphere, where it filters the sun’s
rays. But closer to the ground, ozone
turns into choking smog that some
scientists believe could cause perma
nent lung damage by limiting the
lungs’ ability to ward off infection.
The OTA study said that each
year, about 21 million people are ex
posed during outdoor exercise to
ozone levels above the federal stan
dard, each of them for about nine
hours a year, on average. About one-
quarter of these people live in Los
Angeles.
“Though experts disagree about
the level of danger that ozone actu
ally poses to the population, a large
portion of the American people live
in places where ozone concentra
tions far exceed those known to be
completely safe,” the study said.
The White House is expected to
unveil later this week hill deiai
its clean air proposal, which waii
nounced June 12 in outline ft;
Draft legislation incorporaij
Bush’s proposals has been circulij;
on Capitol Hill in recent days.
Friedman said lack of detail®
original administration planmaij
impossible to f ully explain whyE,
believed more gains against
smog are possible than foresee

Agency said in a written response

ernments would take their owni

Soviet officials meet with striking miner
Biggest strike in country’s history threatens to cripple industry
MOSCOW (AP) — Senior officials flew to Si
beria and met with coal miners Monday in an ef
fort to end the Soviet Union’s biggest strike,
which is spreading to the main coal fields and
threatens to cripple industry.
Premier Nikolai I. Ryzhkov said the special
commission met with a new regional strike com
mittee that demands a greater voice for miners in
running the industry in western Siberia, 2,100
miles east of Moscow.
State television said eight mines had been
struck in the Ukraine’s Donetsk Basin, the main
coal region 1,450 miles south of Moscow. The of
ficial news agency Tass said more than 2,000
miners were striking at six mines in Makeyev, ad
jacent to the administrative center of Donetsk.
Tass said the Donetsk miners’ demands were
fewer than those in western Siberia: more rapid
reduction in the bureaucracy running the mines,
longer vacations and improved housing.
In remarks to the Soviet legislature before re
ports about the Donetsk strikes, Ryzhkov said
110,000 miners and sympathizers were striking
in the Kuznetsk Basin, the nation’s second-rank
ing coal production area.
Politburo member Nikolai N. Slyunkov led the
Moscow delegation, which Tass said conferred
with miners in Kemerovo and then with a strike
committee in Prokopievsk.
Mines in both cities and seven others are in
volved in the week-old strike.
Each city has two representatives on the com
mittee, which was formed late Sunday night, said
committee spokesman Valery Serdtsev.
In the first Kremlin comment on the strike,
Ryzhkov said it threatened production at some
metallurgical and power plants.
Weekend press reports said coal production
had been cut by 1 million tons and a coal short
age had interrupted work at the Magnitka steel
complex in the Ural Mountains.
Ryzhkov said in televised remarks to the legis
lature that he and President Mikhail S. Gorba
chev sent a telegram to the miners Sunday
urging them to return to work and promising to
address their grievances.
He said any decisions made in Kuznetsk also
would affect Donetsk miners.
The strike apparently is the largest in the
viet Union since the Bolshevik revolution of ISI
and the civil war and turbulence that followed
Official Soviet histories do not mention a:
strikes since then, and underground repot
speak only of sporadic work stoppages neither!
widespread or prolonged as the mine strike
Slyunkov’s commission was instructed to slue
what Ryzhkov described as social problems inih
Kuznetsk Basin and prepare a plan foreconoui
development of the region, Tass said.
Demands by the miners include highenvage
better food, housing and working conditioi
and a greater role in running the industry.
The premier said he opposed using force be
cause violence would only make things worse,
and noted that the legislators were asked last
month to draft a law on strikes and collective bar
gaining, Tass reported.
Soviet law does not forbid strikes, but they
were suppressed before Gorbachev gained
power in March 1985.
Local party government officials were noli
eluded on the strike committee, but press rep
said they declared support for greater autonou
from the Coal Mining Ministry, which runsl)
mines from Moscow and controls many sect
services in the coal basin.
