Draft 5-year Air Quality and Deposition Monitoring Plan
Deadline: 
15 Jan 2019

From: Environmental Monitoring and Science Division

Attached for your review and comment by January 15, 2019 is the DRAFT report called “A five-year provincial air quality and deposition monitoring, evaluation and reporting plan (2019-2023)” prepared by Environmental Monitoring and Science Division (EMSD) of Alberta Environment and Parks. This plan is intended to guide the work of EMSD for air quality and deposition monitoring, evaluation and reporting for the next five years. Stakeholder input and awareness of this plan is fundamental to its successful implementation.

The Environmental Monitoring and Science Division of Alberta Environment and Parks is responsible for monitoring and reporting on key environmental indicators and providing open and transparent access to air quality and deposition data. To effectively report on air quality and deposition in the province, a robust and spatially representative monitoring system is necessary. EMSD has evaluated the existing air and deposition monitoring program from a provincial perspective and has developed the attached 5-year plan.
