BACKGROUND:
As a requirement of 40 CFR Part 58.10, Clark County must adopt and submit an annual monitoring network plan to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) by July 1 of each year. The attached Annual Monitoring Network Plan for 2022 reports the status of the Clark County air monitoring network in 2021. It also describes network changes planned for 2022 and beyond, and the ways in which network data is disseminated to the public in a timely manner. The Department provided a 30-day period (April 6 to May 6, 2022) for the public to comment on the plan, advertised on the Department’s website and in the "Las Vegas Review-Journal." No public comments were received. Staff requests that the Board approve and adopt the 2022 Annual Monitoring Network Plan and authorize its submission to EPA.
