Abstract

The study evaluates the adequacy of air quality monitoring data and sampling procedures by assessing the content and implementation of EPA's May, 1979 air monitoring and quality assurance regulations. Interviews were conducted in five areas (Portland, Kansas City, New Orleans-Baton Rouge, Jacksonville, and Boston) with governmental, industry and public interest groups. The overall conclusion was that, given proper personnel and funding, the regulations will provide by 1983, a national monitoring system to satisfy the needs of future air quality planning and status attainment.
