Ambient Air Quality Monitoring
Establish a representative picture of outdoor air conditions for a project, facility or location where impacts are being assessed.
Discuss your requirementsOutdoor air measurements that can be interpreted in context
Readings near a source and readings near a neighbouring use answer different questions. Weather, surrounding activity and plant operations can also influence results, so the survey needs a record of the conditions behind each observation.
Scope of work
We review site operations, sensitive receptors and the agreed monitoring objective, then establish locations, parameters and supporting observations. The programme can support a baseline, periodic monitoring or a targeted investigation.
Sources and receptors
We review the activities, surrounding uses and sensitive locations that should inform the monitoring plan.
Measurement programme
The agreed brief defines locations, periods, parameters and how site activity and weather will be documented.
Results and trends
We assess the readings in their operating context and identify where comparison, mitigation review or repeat monitoring may be useful.
Frequently asked questions
Which pollutants should we measure?
The source, permit and monitoring objective guide the selection. For example, particulate matter may be relevant to dust, while a process may require a different set of pollutants.
Can you support monitoring across project phases?
Yes. Establish comparable locations, methods and reporting criteria at the outset, then review changes in activity when interpreting the results.
