What i was the purpose of the air sampling program?
The air sampling program was put in place to collect information and data on the concentrations of metals in the atmosphere in the Greater Sudbury Area, to allow us to estimate exposures to people, wildlife and vegetation. We selected 10 locations, to sample for a one year period starting in October 2003. This data were used as part of the exposure assessment for the Human Health Risk Assessment (HHRA) of the Sudbury Soils Study.
