Information for Presenters
Presenting a paper at the Environmental Measurement Symposium (EMS) provides an opportunity to show the depth of your experience and your expertise in using new, more cost-effective monitoring approaches. You can also show new technologies to potential developers, help improve the quality of the nation's environmental monitoring, and share obstacles so that solutions might be found. EPA encourages regulatory agencies, regulated entities, laboratories, and other members of the commercial and academic communities to submit papers. The call for papers typically occurs in October, with abstracts due back by the end of January. The Conference is usually held in either late July or August.
