Where can I get information on air toxics monitoring?
EPA outlined its plan for a national ambient air toxics monitoring network in the Air Toxics Monitoring Concept Paper, issued February 29, 2000 (PDF) (44 pp., 266 KB, about PDF). The Concept Paper was later revised and EPA outlined a national program and strategy in the National Monitoring Strategy Air Toxics Monitoring Component (PDF) (77 pp., 332 KB, about PDF). As discussed in the strategy, the national air toxics monitoring program is comprised of four different monitoring efforts: National Air Toxics Trends Stations (NATTS); EPA funded local scale projects to assess conditions at the local level; Existing state and local program monitoring; and Persistent bio-accumulative toxics monitoring. The New England states all collect some ambient monitoring data for various air toxics as a part of these efforts. For more information on air toxics monitoring, including information on the national trends stations and local scale monitoring projects, visit: http://www.epa.gov/ttn/amtic/airtox
