Stephen Moorcroft, Director of
Air Quality Consultants, gave a presentation to the recent Institute of Air Quality Management (IAQM) meeting (1
st July) on the uncertainty associated with current projections of NOx and NO
2 concentrations in future years. The implications of this for both local authorities undertaking their Local Air Quality Management (LAQM) duties, and for developers submitting planning applications for new developments in areas of existing poor air quality, were set out. A potential way forward for the next four to five years was discussed. This and other presentations from the IAQM meeting can be downloaded from
