Recognizing public health, the environment, and the economy as key components in finding solutions to air pollution, DNREC has made significant progress in adopting effective and publicly-acceptable plans for emissions reductions at the lowest costs to the regulated community.
Contains information about toxic chemicals in Delaware. It is based on annual reports from facilities that use or manufacture those chemicals. DNREC publishes annual state Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) reports and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) publishes national TRI reports. Annual reports are published at the end of each calendar year and cover the previous calendar year.
Through planning, monitoring for National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS), and pollution control methods, DNREC continually works to improve the quality of the environment.
Part of DNREC's mission is to inform and educate the public on natural, historical, and cultural resources in Delaware, as well as interact with communities and stakeholders to address environmental policies and regulations.
DNREC is full of opportunities to get involved in environmental activities throughout the state. The department is always looking for volunteer help to reach more people, take on large monitoring activities, and maintain Delaware's beautiful habitats.
Ozone, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, particulate matter less than 10 microns, particulate matter less than 2.5 microns, and lead are considered criteria pollutants because of their impact on human health and welfare.
DNREC is always looking for better ways to provide citizens with the most accurate and timely air quality data. This moveable monitoring platform can collect data in areas without permanent monitoring stations.
