Weather Alert  

AIR QUALITY ALERT IN EFFECT FROM 11 AM TO 11 PM EDT SUNDAY The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation has issued an Air Quality Health Advisory for the following counties: Nassau, Suffolk, from 11 AM to 11 PM EDT Sunday. Air quality levels in outdoor air are predicted to be greater than an Air Quality Index value of 100 for the pollutant of Ground Level Ozone. The Air Quality Index, or AQI, was created as an easy way to correlate levels of different pollutants to one scale. The higher the AQI value, the greater the health concern. When pollution levels are elevated, the New York State Department of Health recommends that individuals consider limiting strenuous outdoor physical activity to reduce the risk of adverse health effects. People who may be especially sensitive to the effects of elevated levels of pollutants include the very young, and those with preexisting respiratory problems such as asthma or heart disease. Those with symptoms should consider consulting their personal physician. A toll free air quality hotline has been established so New York residents can stay informed on the air quality situation. The toll free number is 1 800 5 3 5, 1 3 4 5.

Once a year, RelampIt! sponsors a projector lamp recycling raffle in effort to promote Green practices in the audiovisual industry.

The 4th Annual Projector Lamp Recycling Raffle began September 1, 2011 and will conclude as part of a series of events that will take place during InfoComm's AV Week (10/16/2011 - 10/22/2011). According to Gina Sansivero, Partner at Projector Lamp Services, "The week-long focus here will be on Green AV; specifically end of life cycle options for AV equipment." This year, RelampIt! intends to exceed the 1700 lamps collected during last year's recycling raffle event. By participating in InfoComm's AV Week festivities, RelampIt! has the opportunity to reach out to and educate a larger number of companies and institutions.

Those interested in being entered in the raffle are encouraged to submit a minimum of 10 projector lamps for recycling, which qualifies them for (1) entry. Participants have the opportunity to win one of three prizes, including a grand prize of a brand new front projector. RelampIt!, continually makes every effort to inform AV integrators and end-users about the importance of projector lamp recycling and encourage the AV community to consider Green options when choosing AV equipment.

While making this an easy and worthwhile opportunity to win great prizes, it is also a wonderful opportunity for RelampIt! to further their commitment to environmental sustainability and encourage others in the AV community to join in.
