Focus on air quality

People across Otago are being encouraged to give their feedback on how to best manage air quality, with 17 drop-in sessions to be held across Otago starting at the end of the month.

From next Monday, July 29, to August 22 there will be 17 in-person sessions at 11 locations across Otago, plus two online sessions.

The key pollutant in Otago, particulate matter, mostly comes from home heating emissions.
