The recent California Clean Air Act requires a permit program to be adopted to achieve a "no net increase" of nonattainment pollutants or their precursors from all new and modified sources; this meant that changes to its permitting program were necessary to ensure that increases in precursor organic compounds (POCs) or NOx emissions from new or modified sources be accompanied by compensating reductions of the same pollutant, since POC and NOx are precursors of ozone. 2, record 1, English, - ozone%20precursor

Il fallait modifier le programme d'octroi des permis afin de s'assurer que les augmentations d'émissions en composés organiques précurseurs (COP) ou de NOx par des sources nouvelles ou modifiées, s'accompagnent de réductions compensatoires des mêmes polluants puisque les COP et les NOx sont des précurseurs de l'ozone. 3, record 1, French, - pr%C3%A9curseur%20de%20l%27ozone
