Description

The UK has a statutory duty to monitor air pollution in accordance with the EU Air Quality Directive. The directive requires certain pollutants to be measured across the UK to provide a representative overview of ambient air quality. There are stipulations regarding the number of sites that are needed dependent on population levels and there are also mandatory requirements about the types of instrument that can be used on the networks to monitor pollution. This is to ensure that the data collected is of comparable accuracy across the EU.

This contract will cover particulate matter analysers and associated air quality housings.
