§8906 Updated data base on acid content in precipitation; new monitoring site not required

Summary

The National Weather Service must keep an up-to-date database showing the acid content in precipitation across the United States. It must use data from Federal acid‑precipitation monitoring sites and make the information available to anyone who wants it through Weather Service Forecast Offices or other ways the Assistant Administrator for Weather Services decides. The data must be available for places and times where it already exists, and this had to be done within 120 days after November 17, 1988. If other Federal agencies collect this kind of data while doing their work, their leaders must arrange to send it to the National Weather Service. No Federal agency is required to set up any new acid‑precipitation monitoring site.
