Ambient Air Monitoring Quality Assurance Sessions at the 2008, 27th Annual Conference on Managing Environmental Quality Systems April 21-24, 2008 in Seattle, Washington.

EPA sponsors a national conference on managing quality systems for environmental programs every year. This conference is a national forum for disseminating and exchanging information on managing the quality of environmental data; discussion and action on issues of national concern; training; and technical presentations. The conference is open to all interested members of the environmental community including representatives from EPA, other Federal Agencies, State, local, and Tribal governments, academia, and the private sector. There is no charge for attending the conference or training.

For the past 7 years, the Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards has facilitated sessions at this conference devoted to quality assurance activities for ambient air monitoring. This year, OAQPS will hold a one day ambient air monitoring quality system training course and a second day devoted to presentations and discussions of ambient air QA related issues.
