Zusammenfassung:	Apparatus and method for reducing airborne proppant adjacent a fracking material handling system. In some embodiments, a proppant storage chamber is configured to store a volume of proppant. A blow-in adapter mates with a first port of the chamber to facilitate a flow of proppant into the chamber at an inlet pressure. A filter assembly covers and filter a first aperture of the chamber to reduce an emission of airborne proppant during the transfer of the proppant into the proppant storage chamber. A vacuum adapter mates with a second port of the chamber to supply a negative pressure to the chamber during the filling process to maintain an internal pressure within the chamber below a predetermined pressure threshold.
