Sammendrag
A national air quality network for Egypt has been designed and proposed on request from the Egypt Environmental Affairs Agency (EEAA). In discussions with representatives from the Danida developed EIMP programme as well as with the US Aid supported CAIP programme it has been decided that EEAA in the future would like to develop a modern air quality management programme to be operated on a GIS based air quality database that could also be used for planning purposes. A total of 50 sites have been proposed. The most important indicator is PM10, and 9 of the sites have been identified as first priority on-line measurement sites with automatic monitoring equipment and daily transmission of data into a central database. A total of 24 sites are equipped with monitors, and ten sites have been appointed second priority sites equipped with a combination of monitors and manually operated samplers.
