Air Monitoring. Conduct on-site work area and site perimeter air monitoring for protecting workers, visitors, public, and the environment.
Air Monitoring. (a) Throughout the removal or encapsulation, air sample monitoring should be conducted in accordance with OSHA and EPA Standards by an independent testing laboratory approved by Contractor.
Air Monitoring. The process of measuring the fiber content of a specific volume of air.
Air Monitoring. 1. The Parties acknowledge that the Project provides for the installation of an air monitor at Swansea Elementary School, which is already in operation.
Air Monitoring. Performed by the Owner during abatement work, is described in Section 01410 Test Laboratory Services.
Air Monitoring. To determine if the elevated airborne asbestos structure concentration encountered during abatement operations has been reduced to the specified level, the Owner will secure and analyze samples. The all areas will be tested and analyzed by Phase Contrast Microscopy. If airborne fiber concentrations are above the specified level, the samples will be analyzed by Transmission Electron Microscopy
Air Monitoring. The process of measuring the fiber content of a known volume of air collected during a specific period of time. The procedure normally utilized for asbestos follows the NIOSH Method 7400. For clearance air monitoring, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) methods when required, by the AHERA regulations will be used.
Air Monitoring. A. General Asbestos air monitoring will be completed along the perimeter of the work area to ensure that proper dust suppression techniques are used. Analysis of asbestos air samples will be completed by PCM by a qualified laboratory or properly trained and certified personnel. Asbestos air sampling will be conducted while all abatement work is occurring. Final clearance asbestos air samples will be collected following final visual clearance by an asbestos inspector and approval by Owner, Owner’s Representative, or the Asbestos Consultant. The air samples will be collected by a qualified asbestos air sampling technician. Analysis of air samples will be completed by a certified laboratory and/or a qualified and accredited PCM analyst. Asbestos air monitoring reports will be provided to the Owner within 48-hours of collection with the daily report.
Air Monitoring. The Air Monitoring section is responsible for operation and maintenance of the 30 air sampling sites comprising the citywide air monitoring network. (See attached “Air Monitoring Stations” map). The network is designed and equipped with instrumentation to provide measurements of ambient concentrations for seven federally-designated “criteria” air pollutants - air pollutants for which the U.S. EPA has established National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) - consisting of Ozone, Sulfur Dioxide, Nitrogen Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide, Lead, PM10 (respirable particulate matter less than 10 microns), and PM2.5 (fine particulate matter/aerosols less than 2.5 microns). The monitoring instruments employed conform with federal reference methods established nationally, and ambient measurements collected are used to determine the city’s air quality status with regard to each of the federal NAAQS pollutants. Data from continuous air sampling instruments operated at 12 of the sites are digitally transmitted over telephone lines to the AMS Laboratory, providing real-time access to air quality measurements for the four gaseous pollutants and a surrogate pollutant for particulate matter. (The current federal reference method for measuring particulate matter is based on a “non-continuous” method employing sample collection via filter, with subsequent conditioning and weighing of the filter sample.) The real-time data are employed to provide daily air quality reports to the public using the federal Pollutant Standards Index or PSI. An intensive Photochemical Assessment Monitoring System, or PAMS project, has recently been instituted as part of a national initiative to measure ozone and ozone precursors during the “ozone season.” In Philadelphia, the PAMS project is conducted during the months of June, July, and August at two sites, and includes speciation of over 50 distinct organic compounds through analysis by gas chromatography. Air Monitoring is also involved in providing support to special monitoring projects initiated both within AMS, for local air quality impact assessments, and externally by the U.S. EPA and other organizations, for purposes of monitoring methods development or data gathering for health effects studies or environmental characterizations. Air Monitoring also maintains and calibrates portable sampling equipment used by inspectional staff within AMS’ Regulatory Services and also that used by the Philadelphia Fire Department in responding emergency situa...
Air Monitoring. To determine the degree of air contamination and air pollution in and around Duplin County, North Carolina, and to ensure that residents have access to reliable information about air quality, DEQ agrees to design and implement a temporary ambient air quality study in partnership with REACH. DEQ and the Complainants agree to undertake the air monitoring activities outlined in the Air Quality Monitoring Agreement, attached as Exhibit B. At the conclusion of the 12-month study period, DEQ will determine on the basis of the data collected whether the study should be extended for an additional agreed upon time period. Additionally, at the conclusion of the 12-month study period, a draft report will be compiled by DAQ staff and provided to the interested parties for comment. A final version of the report will be posted to the DAQ website.
