I want to say thanks for doing this again. This is an amazing conference the whole nation should attend. I encourage all staff in Missouri to attend. I certainly carve time out for this each year. You provide so much information in a week. I love that you get EPA to give presentations and updates. You touch on every important aspect of Air monitoring. It is amazing I’m sure you put so much work into but I just wanted to say great job and Thanks again. Keep them coming.
