Welcome to the PUBLIC page of the Worldwide Environmental Products (WEP) Training Portal.
Our mission is to provide the most current and relavent information related to vehicle emissions and vehicle emissions inspection programs.
Although this page is under construction, we have added some active web links that connect to useful information.
We will be adding more information to this page, so check back occasionally for more resources made available from WEP Training Solutions.

To use the AirNow website, click on the image to the left and when the EPA site is displayed, use the Search or Local Air Quality Conditions search filters to quickly show Air Quality Index (AQI) values for the desired location.
The AirNow site also has a great deal of information related to ozone and how ozone can be helpful or harmful, how ground-level ozone affects human health, interpreting the AQI chart, avoiding unhealthy exposure to groundlevel ozone, as well as steps to help reduce ground-level ozone
Select the image to the left to learn more about the Criteria Air Pollutants as identified in the Clean Air Act.
The Clean Air Act requires EPA to set National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for six common air pollutants (also known as 'criteria air pollutants'). These pollutants are found all over the U.S. They can harm your health and the environment, and cause property damage.Learn how EPA sets, reviews and revises standards (primary and secondary standards) designed to protect the public welfare from adverse effects, including those related to effects on soils, water, crops, vegetation, man-made (anthropogenic) materials, animals, wildlife, weather, visibility, and climate; damage to property; transportation hazards; economic values, and personal comfort and well-being. Also, learn how EPA determines whether areas meet the standards, and works with areas to attain and maintain the standards.
