Current federal indoor air quality activities
With the help of the Interagency Committee on Indoor Air Quality (CIAQ), EPA has published a list of Federal indoor air quality activities each year since 1988. The publication is the 1990 update of that list. Title IV of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) of 1986 requires EPA to establish a committee comprised of the Federal agencies concerned with various aspects of indoor air quality (IAQ) and to coordinate Federal IAQ activities. The CIAQ functions as the primary Federal coordination mechanism. Through the CIAQ, each Federal agency is asked to supply a yearly update of its current and ongoing research, policy, and program development activities in the field of indoor air quality. The responses to that request make up the content of the publication. The primary purpose of compiling the information is to provide individuals in the Federal community with a useful tool for coordinating their activities at the project level. The publication has proven to be useful to many individuals and organizations outside the Federal government as well. For each agency, the major indoor air activities are identified, along with a brief description of the activity, its current status and/or projected completion date, the agency/office responsible, and a contact name and phone number. In addition, the update of the list also includes a section listing the indoor air related publications for the public that are available from Federal agencies. Due to inevitable changes in the status of many of these activities, the list will be updated annually.
