Web Site Adds Indoor Air Quality Links

May 15, 2008

The American Indoor Air Quality Council has made it easier for consumers to locate indoor air quality consulting and remediation companies through its Web site.

A new search engine on the council Web site at http://www.iaqcouncil.org/locator/companies.htm provides direct hyperlinks to companies that employ at least one individual with a board-awarded IAQ Council certification. Web site visitors can enter their ZIP code and see a list of qualifying companies located within 100 miles.

"Thousands of companies already benefit from the knowledge and experience of council-certified professionals," said Charlie Wiles, executive director. "Our new search engine enhances this benefit by making their companies more visible on the Internet."

The council is a non-profit certifying body founded in 1993 to serve the indoor air quality industry. The IAQ Council operates independent, third-party accredited certification programs for indoor environmental consultants, microbial consultants, microbial remediators, indoor air quality administrators, and residential mold inspectors.

Will EPA be Forced to Issue a Climate Change Endangerment Finding?

On April 2, 2008, exactly one year after the landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision in Massachusetts v. EPA, 12 states, supported by an additional five states as amicus curiae, as well as the District of Columbia, the cities of New York and Baltimore, and a number of environmental organizations, filed a petition for mandamus with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit seeking to compel the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to act on remand within 60 days.
