Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

I would note any monitoring activities we have done this past year. They may relate better to energy conservation efforts though than to Indoor Air Quality, so note is as applicable. One thing not mentioned though, but may be worth spelling out is the ongoing preventative maintenance program we have to keep our HVAC systems running properly (filter changes, belt replacements, etc, etc.). Mark Gillis could probably provide a few comments that would apply nicely to this section.
