ABSTRACT
The science and technology associated with ambient monitoring is evolving in a rapid fashion. The recent surge in the development of small sensors is leading to many expected benefits and concerns for regulatory agencies. How these emerging technologies will change the monitoring paradigm and what it means for regulators, communities and individual citizens will be presented and evaluated. The ability to adapt to this changing technology will be key for state, local and federal air quality agencies. This will include dealing with new issues around data quality, communications and messaging, and agency responsiveness to these data. All present unique challenges and opportunities for these agencies.
