We of the BCAMP board —Benicia Community Air Monitoring Program— regret to announce that our Forum “Air Quality, Monitoring & Public Health Risks”, which was to be held this Thursday at the Benicia Public Library, is now cancelled, owing to unfortunate news learned this a.m. that one of our panelists has tested positive for Covid.

About BCAMP (previously on the BenIndy)
It was a LONG time coming, and thanks to the vision, hard work and persistence of Benicia activists and volunteers, Benicia now has a state-of-the-art air monitoring station just outside the Valero Benicia Refinery.
A culmination of the more than decade-long efforts of the Good Neighbor Steering Committee and a recently established and highly effective Governing Board, the Benicia Community Air Monitoring Program (BCAMP) was unveiled to the public in a webinar on March 3rd.
Benicia videographer Constance Beutel recorded the March 3 webinar, and has produced several options for you to view now (see below).
First, however, I am so proud of my friends, neighbors and all involved, and I want to offer profound thanks:
A HUGE THANK-YOU from the BenIndy!
