Can I include my monitor in the EPA’s monitoring network?
- The monitors that make up our monitoring network follow stringent siting and quality assurance criteria and are maintained by state and local agencies. You can read about the monitoring network requirements in 40 CFR part 58.
- Some states are also beginning to supplement their monitoring network with low-cost sensors; however, it's important to distinguish that the sensor data is not used for regulatory determinations of National Ambient Air Quality Standards attainment. A resource that may be of interest to you is the Air Sensor Toolbox.
