Indoor Air Issues at Federal Facilities
The Federal Facility Program has initiated and developed an indoor air brochure for Federal Facility environmental managers. This brochure has been distributed to Federal Facility managers and also has been sent to several of the other Regions. A seminar was held informing Federal Facility personnel of indoor air quality problems, mitigation measures and additional resources.
