Air Quality Monitoring
Upwind and downwind air quality monitoring equipment measuring PM2.5 (particulate matter) and VOCs known as BTEX was installed within 500’ of the station pad center.
The prevailing wind direction for this region is from the south-southwest. CNX positioned the PM2.5 monitors such that one would be subject to winds from upwind of the station and the other would be in the path of wind traveling across the station pad (downwind).
