Report: Texas is nation's worst air polluter DALLAS (AP) — Texas leads the nation in the number of smog polluters in violation of federal air standards, an environmental group said in a report released late Monday that was based on Environmental Protection Agency figures. Of 556 polluters in areas of Texas that don't meet basic clear air standards, 93 are violating laws established by the federal Clean Air Act, according to the report by the Washington-based Environmental Working Group. Texas has 2 times as many violators as the second worst state, Illinois, where 38 out of 367 polluters are reportedly violating federal standards.
