Local government, private industry, environmentalists, and stakeholders
agree that our region’s air quality and a healthy environment
deserve more than a federal formula.
Locally designed solutions build partnerships that create innovative
programs like the Fence Line & Neighborhood Ambient Chemicals Sampling
Plan in neighborhoods near industrial areas to help detect and control
dangerous pollutants. The newly installed state of the art air quality
monitors use the only commercially available technology to identify
over 100 of the 189 dangerous pollutants listed in the Clean Air Act.
More importantly, measurements can be read almost immediately.
