H. How will we know if environmental health is improving?
We will use standard measures for environmental health outcomes. We want to see the annual average temperature of Reno stay the same or decrease.
And we want to maintain 365 days each year in Washoe County with an Air Quality Index (AQI) of Green or Yellow. We will omit days with emergency events like local fire conditions when we do our calculations.
Finally, we will look for reduced areas of Environmental Justice Concern in the County, based on the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) map.
