Greenhouse Gas (GHG) IssuesIn Kansas
• May, 2007, Kansas joins The Climate Registry with 30 other states
• Beginning October, 2007– KDHE estimates potential GHG emissions for
new construction – GHG paragraph in all permit cover letters to
voluntarily reduce GHG
22 Our Vision – Healthy Kansans living in safe and sustainable environments. 22
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Paragraph with Permits
• In October 2007 KDHE began addressing green house gas (GHG) emissions in Kansas to protect the health and environment of Kansans. To accomplish this task, KDHE will engage industries and stakeholders to establish goals for reducing GHG emissions and strategies to achieve them. Therefore, in accordance with K.S.A. 65-3005(j), KDHE is seeking your cooperation to voluntarily implement strategies, including the development and use of innovative technologies, market-based principles and other private initiatives to reduce or prevent GHG emissions.
