The City Manager of the City of Eugene finds that:
A. In an effort to minimize the adverse effects that degradation of air quality

in part on December 2, 1991.
B. Under the enforcement provisions of EC Sections 6.265 and 6.990(2), persons
who violate the prohibitions set forth in EC Section 6.255 may be subjected to the
imposition of an administrative penalty not greater than $500 and/or a fine of not less than
$50 nor more than $500 for each day the violation exists.
C. EC Section 6.265 specifically authorizes the City Manager to designate the
Lane Regional Air Pollution Authority (LRAPA) to enforce and administer the provisions
of EC 6.255 to 6.265 as the City Manager's designee, and to utilize its own duly
promulgated administrative hearing procedures in doing so. It would be in the public
interest to make such a designation at this time.
