EIMP Phasing-out Phase, 2003-2004. End of Mission Report, Air Quality Monitoring, Mission 04, March 2004.

Abstract

The EIMP Phasing-out Phase has been formulated to consolidate EIMP achievements, while gradually integrating the EIMP activities and staff into the existing EEAA administrative and organisational structure. The third Mission during the EIMP Phasing out Phase Air Quality component was undertaken during 4 October to 29 October 2003. Bjarne Sivertsen and Rolf Dreiem participated in the Mission. Continued training in reporting and air quality assessment were important parts of the Mission. New sites were visited to update and improve the national monitoring programme.

Site visits were also undertaken to check the quality of measurements, maintenance and repair. The quality assurance programme was modified to start calibrating using travelling standards at the stations. Several meetings were held during the Mission, and various type of support was given to EEAA to upgrade and improve the air quality monitoing network.
