HELENA—In a press release Thursday the Montana Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) announced the launch of a new and improved Today’s Air website. The webpage is reported to provide near-real time air quality updates from monitors throughout the state.
The updated platform will also allow DEQ to easily add additional monitoring sites as part of an anticipated network expansion and display the Air Quality Index (AQI) values and concentrations of particulate matter.
Expansion and upgrades to the existing statewide network are set to begin in fall 2022 with grant funding recently received through the American Rescue Plan Act.
The new Today’s Air website can be accessed via the DEQ homepage, or directly at: todaysair.mtdeq.us
