The air issues associated with VOCs are:

• Smog (VOCs contributes to secondary formation of ground-level ozone and fine PM)
• Visibility/Regional Haze (VOCs contribute to secondary formation of fine PM)
• HAPs (numerous individual VOCs have been determined to be CEPA 1999 toxic; mass VOCs have been determined to be toxic because of their contribution to the formation of ozone and PM₁₀, both of which have been determined to be CEPA 1999 toxic)
