Auto body shops, bakeries, distilleries, dry cleaners, fiberglass fabricators, foundries, furniture manufacturers, gasoline service stations, general contractors, metal finishers and fabricators, photo finishing laboratories, printing shops, and other small businesses may be affected by the air pollution control programs the law may require.
