PRAMP

PRAMP's portable air station has been at Cadotte Lake since October 2019 and PRAMP is planning to relocate it in April 2021. We are seeking input on possible new locations for the station. To determine where the station will be located, our Technical Program Managers and Technical Working Group will use a multi-step assessment that considers community interests and concerns. Your input on possible site locations is welcome. Please fill out a short survey about air quality in... the Peace River area. You can also contact Mike Bisaga at [email protected] by February 26, 2021 with questions or feedback. https://docs.google.com//1FAIpQLSdJ5OBEMGv32j_57b3FO/viewf
