What We Do
What We Do
BSM's primary focus is air dispersion modeling. We offer a variety of services to support this focus. Read below for more details, or visit our Brochures page for our SOQ and various one-pagers.
Emissions Inventory Development
Developing a detailed emissions inventory is crucial for understanding pollutant sources. We work with clients to accurately model emission sources, such as roof vents or stacks, for both operational and permitting purposes.
Air Dispersion Modeling
Our team at BSM uses industry-approved tools like AERMOD and CALPUFF to provide accurate and defensible air dispersion modeling. We help clients select the best model for their project, ensuring regulatory compliance and actionable insights.
Meteorological Data Selection and Processing
An air modeling analysis must use meteorological data that are representative of the area being modeled. BSM has extensive experience identifying appropriate data and then demonstrating their representativeness to regulatory agencies.
Using tools like AERMET and CALMET, BSM processes meteorological data to ensure accurate modeling. Whether you need data preprocessing or help selecting representative datasets, we provide the technical support you need to meet environmental compliance.
Ambient Monitoring Data
Ambient monitoring plays a key role in modeling air pollution. BSM helps clients gather and analyze monitoring data, ensuring effective use of background concentrations for modeling projects.
Permit Application Preparation
Our team provides full support for air quality permitting, including local, state, and federal permit applications. We ensure seamless integration of air dispersion modeling with your permit application preparation efforts.
