The directory contains a list of Michigan air quality consultants who work with industrial and commercial companies, industrial hygienists who can analyze indoor air quality problems, and analytical laboratories that provide testing and support services for all air quality consultants. The directory assists in determining when an air quality consultant might be needed, describes the various types of air quality consultants, and gives an overview of some of the more common air quality activities performed by consultants. It is divided into six helpful sections:
- Section I: Understanding the Differences between Outdoor and Indoor Air Pollution
Section I explains the differences between outdoor and indoor air pollution, clarifies which federal and state agencies regulate each type of air pollution, and lists applicable air quality consultants along with the services they provide.
- Section II: The Air Quality Service Locator
Section II provides a reference table that allows readers to quickly locate statewide air quality consultants, industrial hygienists, and analytical laboratories according to the specific type(s) of air pollution control or air quality services and activities they perform.
Sections III, IV, and V: Air Quality Consultants, Analytical Laboratories, and
Industrial Hygienists
Sections III through V contain lists of air quality consultants. Each entry includes the company's name, location, and contact information, along with a short introduction to or description of the company. The entry also includes a simple chart entitled, "Types of Air Quality Services Available" that shows which types of indoor or outdoor air quality services are available from the respective company based on the activity descriptions found in Section I. If applicable, each company entry also contains a list of branch office affiliations in the state for an alternate means of contact.
