Stuart Batterman (Environmental Health Sciences) and Simone Sagovac (Southwest Detroit Environmental Vision) will discuss the local impact of fugitive dust on air quality. Moderated by Natalie Sampson (University of Michigan Dearborn).
What is fugitive dust: it's when significant atmospheric dust arises from the mechanical disturbance of granular material exposed to the air. Dust generated from these open sources is termed "fugitive" because it is not discharged to the atmosphere in a confined flow stream. Common sources of fugitive dust include unpaved roads, agricultural tilling operations, aggregate storage piles, and heavy construction operations.
