WELCOME to the 2009 National Tribal Forum on Air Quality!

The Institute for Tribal Environmental Professionals (ITEP) and the National Tribal Air Association (NTAA) would like to invite you to attend the 2009 Joint National Tribal Forum / National Tribal Air Association conference on Air Quality to be held in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on June 2-4, 2009.

The joint meeting is a gathering of tribal environmental professionals concerned about air quality in Indian Country. This conference is co-hosted by ITEP and NTAA, and sponsored by the US Environmental Protection Agency Office of Air & Radiation. NTAA staff will provide opportunities for discussion of budget and policy issues, and ITEP will present education, training, and monitoring updates. We also want to hear from YOU at this conference! If you're interested in presenting a poster or giving a presentation please let us know! The more we can do to highlight the good work of the tribes, the more we'll learn from one-another.

All interested tribal environmental professionals, U.S. EPA representatives, and members of national tribal organizations are encouraged to attend. This conference is designed to allow attendees time and a venue to share with and learn from one another.

The conference agenda will include: Discussion of EPA's new leadership and air quality management priorities, tribal air program budget forecasts and what tribes can do to make a positive impact; Trends in national air quality and public health impacts; The latest on climate change and what tribes are doing to address this critical issue; Mercury monitoring; Updates on the Tribal New Source Review rule; Indoor air quality; Student internships; and much, much more.
