Approved on behalf of NPLML by Martyn Sene, Operations Director NPL Report AS 97 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report covers the operation of the UK Black Carbon Network and the data collected by the Network in 2014. The Aethalometer instrument used on the Network makes measurements of Black Carbon (BC) and UV component. The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) in partnership with the Environmental Research Group at King’s College London was awarded the contract to restructure and run the UK Black Smoke Network by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) in September 2006. By 2007 the network was making measurements at 21 sites. In 2008 the Black Smoke samplers were replaced by model AE22 Aethalometers. The Network was reduced to 20 sites in October 2009, when the Bradford site was closed after Defra reviewed its monitoring requirements. In early 2012 the Network underwent major restructuring to focus the network on targeted monitoring of specific emission sources.

During what can only be described as a tumultuous political year, our nation experienced a presidential campaign unlike any other I can recall. National security factored promi- nently in the campaign, particularly in several of the debates. AUSA, true to our non-par- tisan tradition, provided a platform for the advancement of a strong defense based on our uniquely American values. “America’s Purpose,” a short, but impactful, document published by AUSA, offered thoughts of how the next president, irrespective of party, might craft an effective foreign policy. This initiative, led by GEN Gordon Sullivan, U.S. Army Retired, LTG Guy Swan, U.S. Army Retired, LTC Douglas Merritt and Richard Lim, presented GEN Carter F. Ham, U.S. Army “America’s Purpose” to the most senior advisors to both leading presidential candidates. Retired, President & CEO, AUSA You’ll find “America’s Purpose” in the Publications section of our website and I encourage you to read it. For us at the AUSA National Office, the biggest change was the retirement of General Sullivan after more than 18 years as president & chief executive officer.
