Best Practices for Perimeter Air Monitoring Programs

Airborne chemicals and dust are issues for many environmental remediation sites, construction sites, and manufacturing facilities. Site and off-site emissions pose both nuisance and health risk exposures dependent on the site type and contaminant levels involved. Regulation and guidance for these exposures may include local ordinance, workplace regulations, and state or federal regulations, guidelines, and health advisories, dependent on the risks associated with exposure.  This webinar provides a best practices framework for development and execution of a community air monitoring program.  

This 2- hour program includes discussion of: 

• Overview of history, regulation, and types of sites 
• Guidance for regulatory required off-site air monitoring 
• Exposure conceptual site model 
• Methods for establishing health based toxicity and response levels 
• Setting up a strategy for air monitoring and sampling  
• Improved technology, instrument, data transmission, and alerts for real time data monitoring of field conditions 
• Fixed based laboratory and onsite testing options  
• Set up and deployment of onsite testing equipment  
• Case studies  
• Question & Answer discussion by panel of presenters 
• Review of the December 2023 NJDEP Perimeter Air Monitoring Technical Guidance
