Bruce Groves makes a presentation at the New Jersey Clean Air Council’s (NJCAC) annual meeting on April 13th that focused on – a technical dialogue from multiple experts on how to measure and identify the effect of air pollution (and other environmental stressors) on the cumulative health issues of the public. The meeting aimed to bring professionals from varying disciplines to discuss technical approaches, academic research and general opinions on how to reduce this pollution and therefore improve the health of the affected populations.
Maybe this daily air monitoring process looks familiar to you? Collecting samples at the end of the day from every instrument, downloading the data and then studying the data to see what had happened. Snow, rain, ice, cold…the daily routine didn’t vary much! After accepting the learning curve, the ease of operation and the effectiveness of the new technologies of the Greenlight System have allowed me to provide more effective support to the site construction team.
Why do we care about particles floating around in our air? Bruce Groves explores how the environmental air monitoring in the future will be able to locate (in real time) the place, the direction of the pollution source so that we can take measures to stop or reduce the indicated pollution sources. The goal AND end result are to develop as clean a living and working area as possible.

When I was first introduced to perimeter air monitoring, I walked in circles for days, literally. Every half hour I recorded a reading in my field book and moved to the next assigned point. This necessary, tedious process continued for days, weeks, and months. At the end of each day I watched an entire job crew file through the gates to the parking area as I stood by in envy. After a deep breath of annoyance and gloom,
