About LRAPA
The Lane Regional Air Protection Agency (LRAPA) is the local government agency that monitors and regulates air quality in Lane County, Oregon. LRAPA is the only local air agency in Oregon, the remainder of Oregon’s air quality is regulated by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ).
LRAPA monitors Lane County’s air through its eight regulatory grade ambient air monitoring stations and +90 commercial grade air sensors. The agency protects public health, community well-being, and the environment by administering air programs such as an Outdoor Burning program, Home Wood Heating advisory program, and through the regulation of commercial and industrial businesses with air permits and compliance inspections. LRAPA responds to air quality complaints submitted to the agency and maintains a historical database of complaints filed.
Founded in 1968, LRAPA’s authority is granted by an intergovernmental agreement between the Cities of Eugene, Springfield, Cottage Grove, Oakridge, and the Lane County government. By being local, LRAPA ensures important decisions concerning air quality are made by the communities living in Lane County.
