BACKGROUND

ADVISORY MEETINGS AND REPORT DEVELOPMENT

EPA’s Office of Air and Radiation requested SAB rapid consultative advice on a draft “Concept Plan for Ambient Air Monitoring After Hurricane Katrina.” The plan addressed several situations as needing to be addressed by the post-storm monitoring program (flooded areas , areas damaged by flood or winds, and open burning of biomass, building debris, and other debris), pollutants to be monitored, siting, and trajectory projections.
