MCerts 2009 to Focus on Operator Self-Monitoring

Presentations at the MCERTS 2009 Conference (29 and 30th April, at the Bretby Conference Centre near Burton on Trent) will focus on issues relating to the testing and monitoring of air quality in stack emissions, with particular emphasis on how Operator Self Monitoring (OSM) and MCERTS fit into the Environment Agency\\’s \\’Better Regulation\\’ agenda. High profile speakers from the Environment Agency, NPL, UKAS and AEAT will speak on subjects including emissions trading, the Environment Agency\\’s Modern Regulation programme and its impact on monitoring, the role of MCERTS in delivering the programme and how, in 2010, EN14181 - Quality Assurance for an automated monitoring system, will operate under UKAS accreditation. MCERTS 2009 will run over two days and adopt a similar format to previous events with an exhibition featuring almost all of the world\\’s leading suppliers of monitoring equipment and services. The MCERTS Conference, which is repeated on both days, will provide the latest guidance on issues relating to legislation and monitoring standards, and a wide range of workshops will deliver practical help and advice on issues relating to the monitoring of emissions to air.
