effect on our air quality? >> definitely the international effect and this is still an evolving area of science both on the ozone and on the visibility. the modeling that wyoming did and other western states for the first round of regional haze showed that visibility in the west was impacted by international transport of pollutants. the ozone modeling that epa conducted for the cross-state air pollution rule update looked at pollution and as we dove into that modelling, we realized there is still an area that needs to be examined with international transport. it does effect. last week at our meeting we heard from a speaker that talked about reduction in international pollution, may help solve the ozone issues that other states are experiencing and so yes, international transport is important. >> and then director alteri, just to ask if you would like to weigh in a little bit, anything you would like to add to what administrator vehr had to say and can you talk about how the state of kentucky has been affected b

i am so pleased to introduce the air quality administrator for the department of air quality.e administrator has led the efforts to improve the quality and implement the clean air act since 2015. before serving the air quality administrator she worked at the wyoming attorney general's office and in that office served as the assistant attorney the ay general and represented the division of air quality and have broad experience where she handled a wide variety of civil and environmental matters. they served the state very well for which we are grateful. due to the unique location, geography and resources, wyoming eight flexibility to implement the act and i look forward to during your testimony today and listen as you explain the challenges faced by the state of wyoming and implementing the clean air act and how the epa can better partner with the states specifically wyoming to solve the challenges. so, welcome and thank you for being here and for your willingness to testify. >> i would like to recognize senator carper for an introduction. >> we are welcoming back sean to the en

the first location is the meza air base in the southern part of damascus. very large air base. dozens of hangars there, that would be a command and control facility. the second location is in jemraya. that is in the northern part of the city. it appears as though this was a special forces republican guard command and control facility. again i want to stress in keeping with what keir said, in keeping with what richard said, there's been a lot of time to clear out these facilities but again, these are the facilities we're hearing that why hit. the third facility is in barza in eastern syria. those three sites were pummeled 35 minutes ago. eight explosions in damascus. >> thank you very much. we are piecing together from the various sources of information we can get, both eyewitnesses like cal was talking to there, an eyewitness in damascus, western damascus, a journalist who was able to get on the phone, got there, also reports from news services. i should tell you in less than ten minutes we are expecting to get a briefing from the u.s. military, the defense department at the pe

polar air meets milder subtropical air.ast, down to the easterly rotation of the earth and the resulting effect, jet streams can be thousands of miles long, and can travel at speeds of more than 200 miles an hour, so they have a dramatic affect on air travel, depending whether you are travelling with or against the jet stream, flight times and fuel consumption can be dramatically affected. and what about the weather? well, jet streams don't always flow in a straight line, we see ripples and buckles in the streams and quite small—scale ripples can lead to rapidly deepening depressions and big meanders mean some areas can see successive weather systems, whereas other parts of the world and see quieter weather with a blocking area of high pressure. observing and predicting the behaviour of jet streams is the most vital tool for a weather forecaster. a strong jet stream drove some powerful atlantic weather systems into europe injanuary. the driver of this car braved a flooded seafront road in ireland as storm eleanor arrived wi

of the syrian air force. that is a remarkable number if it is true suggesting how degraded the air force was at that moment a year ago. we know that frankly it must surely have been openly displaying or boasting of its air power so it is possible that the things that the syrian government is dependent is the building blocks of existence here. they could be damaged enough to inflict across that is felt still months ahead. if you start filling that do you at some point risk hitting iran troops, russian troops. there have been statements suggesting they may have been killed in that particular blast widening the scope of conflict here. it shows you how many different fors are involved here, what we are talking about and the frequency. >> yeah. we are also back with jim. you have been covering this as much as anyone. just in terms of the difficulty of finding targets long term, if this to be as the president said a multi-national sustained effort, i assume he is not just talk about militarily. at a certain point t

the court yard, we don't have central air. the only air we got is from the courtyards. the pollution as others will talk about is going to increase. there is a 15% increase on one of our courtyards. >> commissioner: your time is up. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon. i'm cecelia lim and the hoa president. i'm speaking on behalf of our owners and residents to oppose the proposed project as currently designed. the project a reg -- rectangular block will form a barrier and block sunlight and air flow causing harmful solutions to collect there and build up. the project would increase [indiscernible] concentrations in our courtyard in an air pollution exposure zone we're already exposed to air that poses a health risk and this will no doubt have further adverse consequences for our health. of particular concern are the units facing the center courtyard which will be boxed in by the project. these units get the fresh air from the courtyard. we do not have forced ventilation. with the project blocking out the wind, the units will have stale air further degraded by the ad

sit a lack of air flow? >> just as the folks have pointed out you are putting the building that can -- it changes the patterns. that's why you see in the west courtyard you see a decrease but then in the central and east courtyard you see an increase because of the various air flow patd -- patterns. >> commissioner: in percentage of increase, can you qualify that. you have the numbers in the chart but -- >> so we're talking about the east courtyard -- >> commissioner: the central courtyard. >> okay. the increase there is .031 micrograms per cubic meter and the threshold the city established is .2. and if you would like to have a greater understanding of what that means, the clean air act and the federal clean air act both establish a pm .25 standard of 12. that includes background levels and everything. so the .2 threshold is the project's contribution to that overall amount. >> commissioner: okay. thank you. and in the design -- and i appreciate your presentation, but so if bay quest were to be built today,

any additional impacts will deteriorate the air quality further and deteriorate the air hazards for the local residents. as displayed in table 13 and summarized in table one, there was an increase in pm 2.5 concentrations in the center courtyard, and an increase about 14.5 to 15% in the inner courtyard. t [ inaudible ] -- however, the cumulative 3-2.5 levels are higher than considered reasonable for residential projects. going on further, there was no review of the construction impacts and according to trinity, that makes this incomplete. so i just want to just, if i could just show you quickly -- does this turn on? >> john. >> what -- what this picture shows is from the ramble report, and this is with the building, and you'll notice that there's a lot of yellow and stuff, and that indicates increase in pm 2.5. here is the -- before. there's a lot less. >> clerk: thank you, sir. your time is up. >> one last thing -- >> president hillis: that's all, sir. unfortunately, we only have -- >> all right. >> president hillis: three minutes perspeaker. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon. ca

the royal air force is at the front of air, space and cyber, so there's great technology there. we also, i think, set a great example of challenging young people and giving them opportunities and allowing them to develop themselves. so we are aiming to combine those all together and get out there, inspire up to two million young people, aged nine to 15 primarily, but beyond that as well, and use raf 100 as a sort of launch platform to help them develop opportunities and realise their aspirations. so it is really about making those connections with young people, where ever we can, across the country. you mention 9—15. can i take you back to the time when you were between nine and 15. what was inspiring you at that stage, to think about the royal air fforce as a possible career? was that thought in your mind then? i have to say my personaljourney started earlier than that. i think probably when i was about four—years—old, when my father, who had been in the royal air force during the second world war, bought me a ladybird book which was the airman in the royal air force. i thought

pounding it daley with syrian air and russian air force and a lot of artillery. there was no need to use chemicals there. the fighters were on the verge of surrendering to the russians. that happened the next day. it wasn't the chemicals that did it. just the constant bombardment. the chemical weapons were superfluous, unnecessary and look what it's led us to. this superpower confrontation that we don't need. >> last night the question was asked of general mattis about whether we knew for sure that it was assad who carried out this chemical strike. i'm paraphrasing but i think his words were -- pardon my question. let's take the pentagon briefing. >> let's start by making one point clear. the use of chemical weapons anywhere in the world is an inexcusable violation of international law. and the united states will not tolerate it. the assad regime's attack against innocent syrians in douma, syria, on april 7th is horrifying and tragic. and it demanded an immediate response. yesterday, united states forces at the direction of president trump launched precision stri

u.s., british and french naval and air forces were involved in the operation. and for reasons of operational security, i won't be more specific this evening. before we take questions. >> would like ato dress how this strike will qualitatively and quantitatively different than 2017. last year we conducted a strike on a single site. the focus was on the aircraft associated with the syrian chemical weapons attack in april of 2017. this evening we conducted strikes with two allies on multiple sites that will result in a long term degradation ever syrian capability to research and develop and employ chemical and biological weapons. important infrastructure was destroyed which will result in a setback for the syrian regime and lose years of research and development data, specialized equipment and expensive chemical weapons precursors. the strike was not only a strong message to the regime that their actions were inexcusable, but it also inflicted maximum damage without unnecessary risk to innocent civilians and with that the secretary and i would be glad to take your

first air force butan airforce not only the world's first air force but an air force that has over thece that has over the years managed to get together the technologies and move forward. we are looking at 100 years, so let's look at the next 100 years. we are looking at cyber, we are looking at space, the royal air force has its own satellite, and that has always been its hallmark. it has been able to get the latest technology and find the people. in terms of their people, it is significant because it has never had a problem with people's background, diversity, it has always been part of the message. so it is a real pleasure to wear this uniform, because i am very proud to be part of that huge family of people. 100 years ago, aviation itself was relatively young. if you look back 110 years ago, the committee for the imperial, the committee for the imperial, the committee for the defence of the empire was basically saying, look, aeroplanes don't have a role. the army didn't want one, the navy wa nted army didn't want one, the navy wanted to macro. two years later winston churchill gets

last year we saw the united states launching an air attack on an air base in syria, supposedly to depletein hours, syrian warplanes were taking off again from that airbase. the efficiency of isolated air strikes, i think, is questionable. it might make the west feel as if action has been taken, but i don't think syria needs gesture actions like this. it may also have an effect in what increasingly appears like a macho strongman stand—off between president trump and putin. but that should not be the function of uk foreign policy. it should not be dictated by the interests of president trump, but it should be dictated by the interests of the syrian people in this respect, and should be sanctioned by the uk parliament. i certainly regret the fa ct parliament. i certainly regret the fact that parliament was not involved in this decision. i hope 110w involved in this decision. i hope now there is a full debate in the house of commons and that there is an agreement on the part of the prime minister that if there is to be any further change the role of uk forces in syria, and that role and of co

in the air, two b-1 bombers fired 19 joint air-to-surface stand off missiles. in addition, the british allies flew a combination of tornadoes and typhoons and launched eight missiles. our french allies flew marriages and launched nine scalp missiles. the attacks were able to overwhelm the syrian air defense system. it's important to note we flew a variety of defensive counter air, tanker and electronic warfare aircraft in support of the operations. none of our aircraft or missiles involved were successfully engaged by syrian air defenses. we have no indication russian air defense systems were deployed. we are confident all missiles reached their target. in the end, all our aircraft returned to their bases. we assess over 40 surface-to-air missiles were deployed by the syrian regime. most occurred after the last impact of our strike was over. it is likely the regime shot many missiles on a ballistic trajectory. i mean without guidance. the efforts of syria were largely ineffective and increased risk to their own people. when you shoot iron into the air without g
