Air

Clean air benefits all ISU staff, students and visitors.  Iowa State University is committed to air quality protection by following local, state and federal air protection regulations.  Requirements for university personnel may be found in the Air Quality Policy.

Besides following the regulations, here are some things you can do to improve local air quality:

  • Turn off lights to save electricity (less coal consumed)
  • Drive less or car pool (less fossil fuel consumed)
  • Don’t open burn garbage or brush (recycle or compost)
  • NO SMOKING  on campus

Your EH&S Air Quality contacts are:

  • Steve Mayberry
  • Sean Whalen

 

Environmental Audits and Assessments

Iowa State University occasionally buys, sells, or receives property and buildings.  In order to protect university assets, EH&S may complete a limited environmental screening process on the property in order to identify existing chemical hazards such as old dump sites, leaking tanks, or spills and releases.  Please contact EH&S if a property is being acquired or sold.
