Air Quality Assessment
Air quality assessments are essential for planners, developers, and operators to ensure compliance with national and local policies. These assessments help determine whether a proposed development may impact air quality at sensitive receptor locations, or if a site is suitable for its intended use.
At DustScanAQ, our expert air quality assessment consultants provide specialist advice to navigate planning and permitting requirements effectively. Our team delivers high-quality air quality assessment reports tailored to meet regulatory standards and planning application needs.
Air Quality Assessments for Planning Applications
Within the planning system, air quality assessments are primarily used to evaluate two key factors:
- Whether the proposed development will negatively affect local air quality
- Whether the site meets air quality standards for its intended use
Our air quality consultants offer a range of air quality assessments for planning applications, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations. Depending on project requirements, we provide the following air quality report types:
- Air Quality Screening Assessment
- Detailed Transport Emissions Modelling
- Detailed Point Source Emissions Modelling
- Air Quality Neutral Assessment
- Air Quality and Dust Management Plans
These reports support planning applications across various sectors, including residential developments, industrial sites, and infrastructure projects.
