Pre-deployment of air surveillance and response resources for the Pennsylvania 500 NASCAR Race.
|
|
EPA, PADEP, Monroe County EOS are assisting Pocono Raceway and NASCAR by predeploying to the racetrack to:
. reduce response time for a team to respond to a hazardous substance incident
. perform air monitoring surveillance for chemical and radiological agents carried into the raceway from outside sources before and during the race
. perform chemical and radiological agent sweeps in the garage, paddock, pit, and grandstand areas prior to each trials period and race.
. perform air analysis, either real time or bag sample using the Trace Atmosphere Gas Analyzer, GCMS, and other remote sensing equipment.
|
|
. No confirmed air readings requiring response action during this period.
. Rain and fog have delayed track operations for time trials on 7/30/04.
