At-Risk Populations
Environmental Monitoring Needs
Who wants to know when change is in the air?
- At-Risk populations, also known as “Sensitive Receptors” (e.g., senior housing, schools, day care facilities and hospitals) are more susceptible than the general population to even slight increases in air pollution or emissions.
- Communities adjacent to local industries, construction activities and transit corridors who are concerned that high rates of production and/or traffic may be threatening to their quality of life.
Greenlight Solution
The Greenlight System can act as a sentinel to provide environmental surveillance and early warning of activities that may impact the at-risk population. Transit agencies with fleets of buses and trains located adjacent to residential communities can use the Greenlight System to monitor diesel exhaust and noise especially during busy periods or heavy idling. Schools, hospitals and other clean industries can employ a Greenlight System to conduct their own air monitoring to protect students, patients, workers and products. In summary, the Greenlight System offers peace of mind to both businesses and the public by monitoring and demonstrating any level of exposure.
