The air monitoring network plan will assist the Iowa DNR in its efforts to monitor the quality of Iowa’s air and to keep the public aware of air quality problems. The plan is required by EPA’s national ambient air monitoring regulations. It contains detailed information about the location and purpose of any monitor in Iowa’s air monitoring network that produces data for comparison with national ambient air quality standards.
The plan, available on the Bureau's Public Participation page under Public Input, along with comments will be submitted to EPA after a 30 day review period. The Air Quality Bureau must receive all public comments by June 21, 2018. Written comments may be sent by regular mail to:
Sean Fitzsimmons
