Prince George Air Quality Monitoring Society

The Prince George Air Quality Monitoring Society oversees an air quality-monitoring program in the Prince George airshed as required by the BC Environmental Management Act.

The society works to:

  • operate and maintain air quality monitoring sites and ambient air quality monitors in Prince George
  • ensure the monitoring equipment at each of the stations is functioning and accurately recording various air quality parameters on a year-round basis, as well as reporting data to the Province of BC

The Province reviews, analyzes and records the air quality data and recommends any changes to the monitoring program. Air quality data collected in the program is used to support provincial air quality objectives in the airshed.

The Fraser Basin Council provides secretariat services and support to the Monitoring Society.
