LA2338C - EPA - Five (5) Active Ambient Air Ammonia Monitoring Systems

Tender description

This document constitutes an invitation to tender for five (5) Active Ambient Air Ammonia Monitoring Systems with Associated analysis. Under the EC National Emissions Ceiling Directive (NECD 2016/2284), EU member states are required to monitor (Article 9) and report (Article 10.4) air pollution pressure and impacts on ecosystems that are representative of each country’s freshwater, forest, natural and semi-natural habitats. The air pollution impacts of interest are in the first instance those relating to the substances for which reduction commitments are set in Annex II to the NECD (i.e., SO2, NOX, NMVOC and NH3), that is those contributing to acidification and eutrophication of ecosystems, and as precursors of ozone damage to vegetation growth and biodiversity changes.
