| Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Programme (AAQM) |
|
Under the Ambient Air Quality Monitoring programme (AAQM) the Board continued to monitor ambient air quality at Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Surat, Vapi, Bharuch and Rajkot.
The ambient air quality samples were collected as per the standard norms for ambient air quality monitoring. The parameters determined during analysis included SPM, RSPM, SO2 and NOX. The data pertaining to the ambient air meteorological data were regularly submitted to the CPCB [Central Pollution Control Board] for compilation and preparation of report.
Note: The National Ambient Air Quality Monitoring project is re-launched and necessary actions have been initiated to re-commission this project. |
