Former Texas mayor's non-profit air monitoring group springs from noxious experience
When Calvin Tillman was the mayor of a small Texas town at the crossroads of natural gas pipelines and refineries, he tried to alert regulators of problems citizens there were experiencing. He got little response besides visits to assure his citizens everything was fine. The citizens of Dish, Texas, didn’t believe it. Tillman said noxious odors emitted from natural gas processing facilities made peoples’ eyes burn and noses bleed. “We were actually able to improve our situation in Dish through data collection,” Tillman said. The townspeople collected air samples near natural gas compressor stations and processing facilities. They sent them to an independent testing lab where they were analyzed.

New air monitoring system gains EPA support
A research and development firm in Massachusetts has developed air quality monitoring equipment capable of detecting more compounds at lower levels than current commercial systems. OPTRA, Inc., of Topsfield, was recently awarded a Small Business Innovation and Research (SBIR) program grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for its air monitoring efforts. The company has been working on the new system for over a decade. “Trace levels are concerning if it’s a particularly toxic compound such as a chemical agent or one with very low vapor pressure, such as many explosives,” said Julia Rentz Dupuis, chief technology officer at OPTRA.

Data-Driven Decisions: Tracking Sediment during the Klamath Dam Removal
The largest dam removal in U.S. history, the deconstruction of the Klamath Dam is slated to begin this summer. The project includes four dams along the Klamath River with the first and smallest dam, Copco #2, scheduled for removal first. As each of the dams are torn down, scientists and consultants will keep a close eye on the state of the Klamath River downstream to assess the impact of undamming the river. Shawn Hinz, managing partner and environmental toxicologist with Gravity Consulting , has been involved with the Klamath Dam project for over a decade. Hinz was a part of these earlier steps, representing the academic stakeholder position as a graduate student sitting on a board of other stakeholders.
