Problem
2
Lack of locally available Specific Air Quality data
Residents rely on Weather Underground or similar resources which are
not operating within the city boundaries
In cases of fire, natural disaster and local accidents the key carcinogenic
compounds emitted are unknown to the public
Northern California Fires caused major pollution in our city for weeks
Benzene Leaks from Gas Stations are undetermined
Elevated Toluene levels emanating from car exhaust
Solution
3
Saratoga to own & report Air Quality data on the website 24x7
Benzene regulated gas, exposure➔Leukemia
Toluene exposure➔Dysfunctional Central Nervous System, Narcosis
PM 1.0, 2.5, 10➔Increased respiratory and cardiovascular, hospital admission, &
death
Temp, wind speed/direction, and relative humidity
Omniscent Inc, a Saratoga startup, will Install and operate an Air-Q Station and
report results on city website
The analyzer will be moved to a new location every month
At least five locations will be studied
Results will be submitted to City Council for review
Project will last 12 months with option to extend
