Colorado State University and Ajax Analytics will be deploying four whole air samplers (6L stainless steel canisters) to collect weekly time-integrated air samples as part of the City and County of Broomfield's Community-Scale Air Quality Monitoring Project.
Two canisters will be located near the sites of future oil and gas activities, one will be near the Anthem Ranch neighborhood, and the fourth will be near Broomfield Commons Fields. These samples will be used to establish baseline concentrations of ambient volatile organic compounds (VOCs) including benzene, ahead of future oil and gas extraction activities. Learn more at the Air Quality Monitoring Study Open House on Oct. 24 from 5-6:30 p.m. at the George Di Ciero City and County Building, One DesCombes Drive.
Here is a map of all of the air quality stations for the air quality programs.
