Purpose of the meeting
DEQ is working with the Lambert's Point community in Norfolk and the East End community in Newport News to study and reduce the potential health risks associated with dust coming from nearby coal storage and transportation facilities. This project, called the Tidewater Air Monitoring Evaluation project, or TAME, will measure and analyze toxic metals and particulates in the air in the study area, and will use this information to conduct health risk assessments. TAME will involve community members throughout the study to help them understand and improve health outcomes. The public of this meeting is for the public to learn about the study and provide feedback on the placement of air quality monitors. More information about the project is available on the DEQ website at: https://www.deq.virginia.gov/get-involved/topics-of-interest/tidewater-air-monitoring-evaluation-project.
