A Look At Ohio EPA’s Extensive And Successful Air Monitoring Network
Since the passage of the Clean Air Act in 1970, Ohio has made significant strides in achieving good air quality. Part of the cleaner air the state now enjoys comes from shifts in manufacturing practices and the choices people have made to drive more fuel-efficient cars. But all of the achievements are owed in part to air monitoring efforts that have allowed environmental officials to track progress. 
 
As part of its air quality maintenance work, the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency works with district offices, contract agencies and health departments around the state to oversee monitoring stations that keep track of six key pollutants: carbon monoxide, lead, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, particulate matter and sulfur dioxide.

In the far north, the Alaska Peninsula stretches away from the Last Frontier into the Pacific Ocean. A narrow strip of land dotted with freshwater lakes and intruded upon by ocean inlets–this unique region is intimately connected with the surrounding water. 
 
Nestled halfway down the peninsula's southern coast are the small villages of Chignik. The area has historically been home to the Aleut people and has been heavily reliant on fishing for centuries. 
 
Home to commercial and subsistence fishing today, Chignik continues to rely upon the salmon returns to the surrounding villages, which are supported by scientists working tirelessly to understand and steward these fish populations.
