CITIZEN AIR MONITORING NETWORK

The Citizen Air Monitoring Network - Vallejo (VCAMN) started in September of 2016. We started our effort in response to the Phillips 66 Oil Spill incident in Rodeo that sent more than 100 people to the emergency rooms in Vallejo... VCAMN has 15 volunteers who meet regularly. We also have a Facebook group with over 400 active members... VCAMN monitors local air quality and educates citizens about topics related to air quality in Vallejo. We have regular monthly meetings to discuss monitoring and ways to reach community members. We respond to community concerns about air quality. We collaborate with neighboring communities and relevant organizations. We share information from meetings with state and local agencies. And we respond to grant opportunities to support our efforts.
