Mount Barker wood smoke program 2022-23
The EPA partnered with residents and the Mount Barker District Council in a study to assess wood smoke particulate levels over 18 months from 2022 to 2023. The aim of the study was to determine whether the air quality in Mount Barker is within national standards.
An air quality monitoring station was set up on Alexandrina Road in Mount Barker, with real-time air quality data made publicly available during the study period. SA Health also worked with the EPA and the community to assess the findings of the study from a health perspective.
