In a recent post in its We Were Wondering blog, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) details its extensive process for monitoring air quality. The agency highlights the use of 200 monitoring stations and reliance on monitoring vans and handheld monitors to measure air contaminants when responding to specific localized air quality concerns, emergencies, or disasters.
The post also provides helpful tips on how citizens can help minimize air quality impacts and links TCEQ staff interviews that ran on the KXAN local news station.
