Flower Mound’s TCEQ Air Quality Monitoring Station Now Operational

 

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality recently announced that a new state-of-the-art Automated Gas Chromatograph (AutoGC) monitoring station is now operational in Flower Mound. Testing for 46 different volatile organic compounds, including benzene, the monitor will also provide total non-methane VOC concentrations and meteorological data, which are important in analyzing air quality readings. The AutoGC, located at 4401 Shiloh Road near Fire Station #2, will generate hourly air quality monitoring results. Near real-time air quality readings and hourly averages from the station are available at http://www5.tceq.state.tx.us/tamis/index.cfm?fuseaction=report.view_site&siteAQS=481211007. The Flower Mound monitor is the sixth such TCEQ device located in the Barnett Shale. The TCEQ funds up to $250,000 for the equipment, installation, and the first year of operation, and an additional $100,000 per year thereafter for operation and maintenance.
