Tuesday, July 16, 2019. 9:00AM. EPA’s Second Workshop on Deliberating Performance Targets for Air Quality Sensors. Sponsored by EPA. More information here.

The objective of the workshop is to provide a forum for individual stakeholder views related to non-regulatory performance targets for sensors that measure carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), particulate matter with aerodynamic diameters of 10 micrometers and smaller (PM10), and sulfur dioxide (SO2) in the United States. Through the workshop's on-site and webinar discussions, national and international participants from academia, government, and manufacturers, along with sensor users will address a range of technical issues involved in establishing performance targets for air sensor technologies. Workshop topics will include:

• Update of EPA's activities and a summary of the literature and information review conducted since the 2018 "Deliberating Performance Targets for Air Quality Sensors" workshop.
• Stakeholder discussion of their needs regarding air quality monitoring and examples of air sensor deployments and the related data quality objectives (DQOs).
• Expert discussion of research and applications of CO, NO2, PM10, and SO2 air sensors and the related DQOs.
