Fine Particulate Pollution on the Wasatch Front: Technical and Regulatory Challenges in Creating the PM2.5 State Implementation Plan

About the event:

Members of the air quality modeling community have long recognized that a “bright line” pass/fail test of air quality conditions is not an appropriate use for a model that simulates complex photochemistry.  Mr. Barickman will provide examples of uncertainty involved in the modeling process, strategies for working with that uncertainty, and invite discussion on these subjects and how they relate to the recently submitted PM2.5 State Implementation Plan.

12:15-1:15 pm, Rm 106
S.J. Quinney College of Law
