Meet Regulatory Requirements
Leverage our expertise to solve your compliance issues. Our extensive experience working with government agencies gives our private-sector clients a high level of trust in our analyses and allows us to help them understand and navigate the regulatory environment.
Leverage Your Network to Ensure Success
Design and implement monitoring networks to support air quality modeling and address issues of concern, including permit requirements and source-receptor relationships.
Ensure Continued Compliance
Support your management decisions and ensure continued compliance with regulations using accurate air quality modeling and dependable analysis. Our modeling work covers local to continental scales, historical and forecasted conditions, real-time analysis, and custom visualizations.
Community Air Monitoring
Understand the pollution sources and overall air quality in your community so you can impact positive change and make informed decisions.
Bottom-Up Emissions Estimation
Sonoma Technology prepares high-quality emissions inventories by collecting emission factors and representative activity data for a variety of source types. This includes using public surveys to gather information on emissions-producing activities.
Top-Down Emissions Estimation
Improve your existing emissions inventories by using our refined skillset to compare emissions estimates with ambient monitoring data or remote sensing data.
Grant Writing Support
Curious about sources of pollution and the general air quality in your community? Sonoma Technology can help you put together a grant to secure funding to install monitoring shelters and collect actionable data.
Fenceline Monitoring
Rely on our expertise with open-path fenceline monitoring networks to meet your facility’s measurement and regulatory needs.
Measurement and Siting Plan
Develop an efficient and cost-effective monitoring plan that addresses agency requirements. Our plans are tailored to your location’s meteorology, terrain, emission sources, and nearby receptors, and reflect your specific needs and concerns.
Instrument Procurement
Implement and operate appropriate measurement technologies, including UV-DOAS, FTIR, and TDLAS, to meet regulatory requirements for measurements of toxics and criteria pollutants.
Instrument Installation
Leverage our expertise to ensure your fenceline monitoring network is installed efficiently and correctly. Sonoma Technology has installed instruments for ambient air monitoring around the country.
