Mcerts visitor numbers up by 10 per cent

The organisers of the Mcerts 2009 air-monitoring event have announced that visitor numbers grew by 10 per cent in comparison with the 2007 figures.

Mcerts organiser Dave Curtis, from the Source Testing Association (STA), said: 'I think there are a number of reasons for the success of the Mcerts events.

'First, they have become an established red-letter date in the diaries of everyone involved in air monitoring because they provide an opportunity to catch up on the latest regulatory information; second, visitors are able to view all of the latest monitoring technologies; third, process operators can network with people that are facing the same challenges in their working lives and finally, the more recent emphasis on operator self-monitoring means that process operators have to have a greater understanding of the monitoring requirements.' Doug Wilson, head of monitoring and assessment at the Environment Agency, added: 'It was pleasing to note the high level of participation in the Mcerts 2009 conference, workshops and exhibition.

'Our objective to continuously improve the quality of monitoring combined with the increased emphasis on operator self-monitoring means that events such as this provide an excellent opportunity for all stakeholders to meet and discuss issues of common concern.
