The California Environmental Protection Agency's Air Resources Board offers essential laboratory services, including verifications and certifications for ozone and flow rate standards. Services encompass comparisons against standard reference photometers, high and low-volume flow standards, and transfer ozone standards. The board adheres to U.S. EPA recommended recertification dates for various gases and standards, with new services in temperature probe sensors, pressure standards, and a forthcoming relative humidity sensor. Automated gas analysis methods are also under evaluation. Questions can be directed to Robert Russell at (916) 322-0216 or rrussell@arb.ca.gov.
