PORT TOWNSEND — The Olympic Region Clean Air Agency will present the findings of an air quality study for East Jefferson County from 2:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday.
The public presentation will be at the Cotton Building, 607 Water St.
Public concerns in Clallam and Jefferson counties about the adequacy of the air quality monitoring network run by ORCAA prompted the agency to initiate a series of air quality studies in each county.
ORCAA installed a temporary network of air monitors in East Jefferson County between July 2014 and June 2015 to determine whether the existing air monitoring approach adequately represents air quality in the region.
Of particular concern was whether the permanent air monitor located at Blue Heron Middle School is in the best place to detect harmful air pollutants.
ORCAA has completed its study and will present the results.
