This addendum provides information on proposed site modifications in the Florida ambient air monitoring network, which were not covered in the 2021 Annual Air Monitoring Network Plan. This document includes a full evaluation for closing a site and relocating its monitoring equipment within Florida’s ambient air monitoring network in Miami-Dade County. The Lab Annex site will be closed and the nitrogen dioxide monitor will be relocated to the Pennsuco monitoring site while the carbon monoxide monitor will be relocated to the Perimeter Road site for near road monitoring.
Notice is hereby given that the 2021 Draft Florida Ambient Air Monitoring Network Plan Addendum is available for a 30-day public comment period.
The Annual Ambient Air Monitoring Network Plan describes the network of ambient air quality monitors located within Florida. The Plan includes a review of actions taken during the previous fiscal year, and outlines plans for the year ahead.
Federal regulations require that the air quality monitoring network be reviewed annually to identify any need for additions, relocations, or terminations of monitoring sites or instrumentation. After the 30-day comment period, the Plan is submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for review and approval.
