Nautical Term: CAA
Definition of CAA
The Clean Air Act (CAA) is a federal law enacted in 1963, which aims to control and reduce air pollution from various sources. One example of how the CAA is applied is in regulating the emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides from power plants. The CAA sets standards for these emissions and requires power plants to implement technology-based emission control systems to meet these standards.
