EES’ Source Testing Team has experienced testing in many different locales and for many different agencies.  EES’ personnel have accomplished stationary source emissions tests at facilities throughout Western United States, including, Southern California.  EES also has a satellite office in Rockford, Illinois.

EES’ personnel are experienced in source testing of all major criteria and toxic air emissions. EES’ source test personnel have performed source tests pursuant to the requirements of state and local air pollution control agencies.  In Southern California, EES personnel have conducted source tests for both RECLAIM and non-RECLAIM facilities. EES personnel are certified to conduct source testing per California’s South Coast Air Quality Management Districts (SCAQMD) air regulations and testing requirements, which are the strictest and most complex in the Nation. EES personnel are also certified by California Air Resources Board (ARB) in their Independent Contractor Program. EES’ source testing team is adept with performing:

  • Stack emissions testing (Varieties of stationary sources)
  • Leak detection and fugitive emissions testing
  • Continuous Emissions Monitoring System (CEMS) certification
  • Relative Accuracy Test Audit (RATA)
  • Visible emissions measurement
  • 3-Dimensional Flow Measurements
  • Air Toxics Emissions Testing for Health Risk Assessment Calculations
