EPA gives L.A. pollution monitoring grant
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced Monday that it has given the Port of Los Angeles $250,000 to help monitor air quality around port, the nation's busiest container gateway.
The money will go toward the port's ambient air quality monitoring program, which was initiated in October 2005 and primarily measures diesel particulate matter. The testing program is expected to last 18 months and will cost $1.25 million.
