MACTEC's 1st-in-Nation Ambient Monitoring Privatization Contract Marks 5th Renewal Year
Until 1999, to comply with the USEPA requirement that states monitor concentrations of air pollutants in various areas, all states ran their own ambient monitoring networks. That year, MACTEC was awarded the nation’s first (and to date, only) ambient monitoring network privatization contract, by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources Environmental Protection Division (GAEPD). 2003 marked the fifth consecutive year that MACTEC’s contract has been renewed by the State. The data MACTEC provides to GAEPD directly contributes to ozone and PM2.5 forecasting, GAEPD AIRS database, and the real-time ambient data on the GAEPD website (see www.air.dnr.state.ga.us/amp/).

100% Fugitive Emissions Captured Equals 100% Compliance
To reduce VOC emissions and fine particulates during U.S. Naval ship sandblasting and repainting, MACTEC designed a Compliant All-Positions Enclosure (CAPE®) collection system that captures 100% of all fugitive emissions. This resulted in 100% regulatory and OSHA compliance for the client.
