be responsible to correspond both internally and outside CARB. To additionally support the agency's mission and goals, the APS will work with management, PAMS workgroups and manufacturers to evaluate new technologies and practices to improve ambient monitoring
capabilities to qualify/quantify the extent of precursor pollutants in the ambient air. This is a rare opportunity to create a high-profile program incorporating state-of-the art technology from the ground up, establishing the template for future deployments.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
