Question 1: What is the purpose of a mitigation hierarchy in an EIA?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

To avoid, minimize, and offset adverse impacts on the environment during the project lifecycle

To measure pollutant concentrations at various locations

To identify economic trade-offs between project benefits and environmental harm

To establish a framework for post-project monitoring

Question 2: What is the key benefit of using automated air quality monitoring stations?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

They are only useful for short-term data collection

They require minimal maintenance and do not require data calibration

They provide continuous data collection and real-time reporting

They are highly inaccurate in detecting pollutants

Question 3: Why is sensitivity analysis important in air quality impact assessment?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It determines the cost-effectiveness of mitigation measures

It analyzes the political impact of an air quality issue

It helps to understand how changes in input data affect model outcomes and impact predictions

It forecasts the economic benefits of air quality regulations

Question 4: How can data visualization be applied in air quality monitoring?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It removes data points that are deemed unimportant

It focuses only on tabular data, ignoring graphical representation

It presents complex data in an easy-to-understand format, such as charts or maps, to aid decision-making

It increases the sample size to enhance data collection

Question 5: When conducting an EIA for a large-scale industrial project, which air quality indicator is most relevant?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10)

Question 6: In the context of air quality monitoring, what does PM10 refer to?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Particulate matter with a diameter of 10 micrometers or less

Gaseous pollutants with a diameter of 10 micrometers or less

Particulate matter with a diameter of 100 micrometers or less
