Dear Mr. Brooks:

As you know, the Sf. Louis area is currently designated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a

non-attainment area under the 1997 annual PM2.5National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). The

Missouri Department ofNatural Resources' Air Pollution Control Program requests the EPA Region VII

deteJmine that the Sf. Louis metropolitan nonattainment area is attaining the annual PM2.5 standard of 15.0

micrograms per cubic meter (fJ.g/m3

). We are requesting this determination based upon the most recent three

years of certified ambient ail' monitoring data showing that the area has attained both the annual and 24-hour

PM25 NAAQS during the 2007-2009 monitoring period.

We will submit our certified 2009 data separately, which shows a design value less than the annual PM25 • 3

NAAQS standard of 15.0 fJ.g/m .

Should you have any questions or comments, please contact Mr. Terry Rowles with the Department's Air

Pollution Control Program, P.O. Box 176, Jefferson City, MO 65102 or telephone (573) 751-1328. Thank

you.

Sincerely,

AIR POLLUTION CONTROL PROGRAM
