A brief description of the institution's indoor air quality plan, policy, and/or practices:

The quality of indoor air within OSU buildings should allow employees to work safely at all times. However, there are rare circumstances where hazards, such as elevated particulates (dust, dander, and allergens), volatile chemical vapors, vehicle emissions, and mold may enter workplace air. EHS has the capability to conduct air monitoring for these, and many other, compounds to evaluate breathing air within a building and ensure compliance with ASHRAE, OSHA, and EPA requirements for indoor air.
