Owens Lake Scientific Advisory Panel: Evaluating The Effectiveness Of Alternative Dust Control Methods

Completed

Topics

The Owens Lake Scientific Advisory Panel (OLSAP) provides advice on the reduction of airborne dust in the Owens Valley in California. The panel reviews scientific and technical issues related to the research, development, and implementation of waterless and low-water use of best available control measures and other approaches to reduce dust in the Owens Valley in California. OLSAP’s first task is to evaluate the effectiveness of alternative dust control methods for their degree of particulate matter reduction at the Owens Lake bed and to reduce use of water in controlling dust emissions from the dried lake bed.
