## i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

A. General Review 2009 air quality data are summarized for the seven criteria pollutants: particulate matter less than 10 microns in diameter (PM 10 

## ) and particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter (PM 2.5 

## ), sulfur dioxide (SO 2 

## ), nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 

## ), carbon monoxide (CO), ozone (O 3 

## ), and lead (Pb). Data are also summarized for total suspended particulates (TSP). A section discussing Toxics monitoring projects conducted in 2009 is included. Trend studies are presented for three criteria pollutants: SO 2 

## , CO, and O 3 

## . Precision and accuracy data gathered through the quality assurance programs are also included. B. Discussion of Violations Violations of multiple-year, annual and short term air quality standards by county and pollutant are shown in Figures 3 through 17 and in Table 3 . C. Conclusions 1. There are now 37 PM 10 

## monitoring sites and 49 PM 2.5 

## monitoring sites with 96 monitors 57 of which are Federal Reference Monitors, 26 continuous, and 14 speciation. In 1987 there were 30 PM 10 

## and no PM 2.5 

## monitoring sites. Nearly all monitoring for particulate matter is conducted using PM 10 

## and PM 2.5 

## samplers. Monitoring for TSP has essentially been

## ii discontinued. During 2009, 8 TSP sites reported data, down from 217 sites in 1987. Of those 8 sites all are monitoring for lead or other metals and also report TSP data. 2. Sulfur dioxide levels in urban areas have dropped an average of 39.4% in the last ten years. There were no violations of SO 2 

## air quality standards in 2009. 3. No overall trend is indicated for the past several years for carbon monoxide. Figure 22 shows individual urban area trends. 4. The relatively high lead concentrations sampled in Fulton County are the result of industrial source monitoring. Monitors are located near lead processing sources in those counties to determine compliance with the standard. 5. Ten counties are monitoring attainment of the 0.075ppm eight hour ozone standard. There are twentythree counties with monitored non-attainment based on data for 2007 through 2009. This report uses the ozone standard in effect during 2009. 6. No violations of air quality standards for nitrogen dioxide were recorded in 2009. 7. No air pollution alerts were declared in 2009. D. The Ohio Network In 2009 there were a total of 266 monitors at 132 sites reporting data. There were 13 carbon monoxide, 27 sulfur dioxide, 4 nitrogen dioxide, 49 ozone, 42 10 micron particulate (PM 10 

## ), 96 2.5 micron particulate monitors (PM 2.5 

## ) and 18 lead monitors. The only states with comparable or more monitors are California with 818, Texas with 311 and Pennsylvania with 243.

## 1 I. INTRODUCTION A. General A variety of substances are generated and released into the atmosphere by a multitude of manmade and natural sources. Those substances that may affect public health and welfare are regarded as "air pollutants". The U.S. EPA has established National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) to safeguard the public health and welfare from selected air pollutants. The pollutants for which standards have been promulgated are: Sulfur Dioxide (SO 2 

## ), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO 2 

## ), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Ozone (O 3 

## ), Lead (Pb), Particulate Matter  10 microns (PM 10 

## ) and Particulate Matter  2.5 microns (PM 2.5 

## ). The standards are ambient concentrations that are expressed in micrograms per cubic meter ( μ g/m 3 

## ) or parts per million (ppm) per duration (1 hr., 3 hr., etc.) with a restriction (not to be exceeded or not to be exceeded more than once per year, etc.). Table 1 shows the NAAQS in effect at the end of 2009. In some cases, standards are separated into two parts: primary and secondary. The primary standard sets the level of air pollution above which human health is endangered. The secondary standard sets the level above which the welfare of citizens is endangered due to air pollution damage to crops, animals, vegetation and materials. This report contains a summary of measured high concentrations of the pollutants, selected statistics, including quality assurance of the data, and trend analyses for various areas in Ohio. A brief description of the pollutants, the sources from which the pollutants originate and the adverse health effects of the pollutants and the monitoring methods, precede the tabulated pollutant concentrations. Ambient air is generally defined as air that is accessible to the general public. The air that is within (over) the fenced in or guarded areas of facility property is not ambient. Data for this report were collected by Ohio EPA, local air pollution control agencies and private industry. An indication of the accuracy of data from each reporting organization is located in a separate section on Quality Assurance. B. Development of the Ohio Air Monitoring System Society's concern about air pollution brought about the first national law, the Clean Air Act of July 14, 1955. This Act and its subsequent amendments first encouraged, and then authorized, grants to help finance the establishment of state and local air pollution control programs.

## 2 In 1963, aided in part by this federal program, the Ohio Department of Health established the Ohio Air Sampling Network (OASN) with 21 monitoring sites. The OASN was designed to measure the levels of "Total Suspended Particulate" (TSP) throughout the state. The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1970 mandated the promulgation of the NAAQS and delegated authority to develop plans for their attainment to the individual states. To oversee the provisions of this Act, the U.S. EPA was formed in February of 1972 by Presidential Order. After proposing standards for the criteria air pollutants, the U.S. EPA worked with Ohio to set up the State Implementation Plan (SIP) which included a detailed air monitoring program for the original six criteria pollutants: TSP, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, lead and ozone. The SIP is a state's master plan for achievement of the NAAQS. The SIP contains detailed provisions for reducing concentrations of each of the regulated pollutants, where necessary, to achieve and maintain the NAAQS. In October 1972, Ohio EPA was established by State law (Ohio Revised Code Section 3745.01) and the air monitoring program was significantly enlarged. Many local air pollution control agencies and private industries participated in this program. See Figure 1 for the location of the five districts and the nine local air agencies currently supporting the air program. In 1980, the U.S. EPA and Ohio EPA established and designated certain portions of Ohio's network to be a part of the National Air Monitoring Station (NAMS) network, created for the purpose of tracking national trends. In 1980, the US EPA also required that all sites produce data of adequate quality to meet monitoring objectives and adequate quantity to meet statistical and trend requirements. All NAMS sites were to meet these requirements beginning with 1981 data, and all other sites beginning with 1983 data. On March 20, 1984, the U.S. EPA proposed a standard for inhalable particles of ten micrometers in diameter and smaller. To enable the states to begin collecting data without excessive delay the U.S. EPA provided the states with monitors in late 1984. Ohio's field offices began collecting PM 10 

## data during 1985 and a network of sites was primarily located in urban areas. The PM 10 

## standard was promulgated on July 1, 1987 and became effective on July 31, 1987.

## 3 The U.S. EPA promulgated new particulate monitoring regulations and National Ambient Air Quality Standards on July 18, 1997. The new particulate standard is for particulate matter less than or equal to 2.5 micrometers in diameter. The first monitors began to collect data in January 1999. Monitors to determine the chemical makeup of the particulate were added in the year 2000 and in 2001 hourly reading monitors were added. The one hour ozone standard was supplemented on July 18, 1997 with an eight hour standard. The eight hour standard is a three year average of the fourth highest daily eight hour averages. The level of the standard was set at 0.08 ppm which was not to be exceeded. In 2001 The United States Supreme Court found U.S. EPA’s previously proposed implementation plan for ozone unlawful and further held that, in the setting of a standard for ozone pursuant to Section 109 of the Clean Air Act U.S. EPA must set air quality standards at the level that is “requisite”-no higher or lower than is necessary-to protect the public health with an adequate margin of safety. The Supreme Court then sent the case back to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals to review U.S. EPA’s subsequent actions. On March 26, 2002, that court upheld U.S. EPA’s revision of the ozone NAAQS, which had been published in the Federal Register by U.S. EPA as a proposal on November 14, 2001. In March 2008 the 8-Hour ozone standard was changed to be less than or equal to 0.075 ppm as the three year average of each site’s annual fourth high 8-Hour average. The summary tables in this report use the new standard. In 2009 the standard for lead (Pb) was changed to 0.15 μ g/m 3 

## as a three month average. This standard replaces the 1.5 μ g/m 3 

## calendar quarter average. New monitors near presumed sources are to be operational on the first sampling day of January 2010. During 2009, more than 260 ambient air monitors were operated in Ohio. Table 2 enumerates the number and type of criteria pollutant monitors that were operated in the various District Office and Local Air Agency jurisdictions.

## 4 The goals of the ambient monitoring program are to determine compliance with the ambient air quality standards, to provide real-time monitoring of air pollution episodes, to provide data for trend analyses, regulation evaluation and planning, and to provide information to the public on a daily basis concerning the quality of the air in high population areas, near major emission sources and in rural areas. C. Remote Ambient Data Systems The Remote Ambient-Air Data System (RADS) is a system for the automatic acquisition and transmission of data from a remote monitor to a central computer. Each continuous monitoring site operated by Ohio EPA's district offices is furnished with a data logger that is polled automatically once a day by the central computer in Columbus. A major benefit of RADS is that the data can now be handled more quickly with fewer chances of error. Formerly the data was manually read from recorder strip charts, handwritten on a computer input form, keyed into the computer and then made available for retrieval. This process took three to four weeks. The data in the RADS computer is available for review by the district and central office staff on a daily basis. The individual sites can also be contacted through the data logger for instantaneous data and interrogated further by remote testing of zero-span for any parameter. This is particularly valuable when pollutant levels are, or may become, elevated, as during an air stagnation episode. RADS was installed during the fall of 1985 and went into operation on January 1, 1986. Local air agencies have automated their continuous monitors and Ohio EPA has expanded RADS to include the automation of the local air agencies' networks. Industrial networks will also be added. RADS has been upgraded for remote access to the data by digital cellular wireless technology to telemeter data to the central computer.

## 5 D. Data Availability on the Internet For the past several years Ohio EPA has provided ozone and PM 2.5 

## data updates several times a day to the U.S. EPA for a public outreach web site where current data and data forecasts are displayed in the form of tables and maps. This web site can be viewed at: www.epa.gov/airnow/where/ . From this site different states can be chosen to view forecasts of ozone and PM 2.5 

## levels and to link to animated ozone concentration maps. As part of the AIRNow effort there is also a page that displays a map of North America that has sites that can be clicked upon for current environmental data. This page is updated frequently and is called Enviroflash at: www.enviroflash.info . Historical ambient air quality data can also be found at: www.epa.gov/air/data/ . This site is a gateway to maps, reports and user selected data that reside in the U.S. EPA’s Air Quality System (AQS) database. A third data source is at: www.epa.gov/airexplorer . This site has interactive maps, graphs and data tables. The data include all of the criteria pollutants as well as PM 2.5 

## speciation parameters and Air Quality Index (AQI) values. For those with specific health concerns (asthma, heart disease) or who want general information for older adults, children or who are active outdoors and who want to compare the air quality of different counties or states, the U.S. EPA has a web site that allows comparisons at: www.epa.gov/aircompare/ . E. Designation of Air Quality Control Regions The fact that air pollution does not respect state boundaries was recognized in early control efforts. To effectively deal with pollution and attain the NAAQS, U.S. EPA, with advice from local governments and the public, divided the nation into areas called Air Quality Control Regions (AQCR's). Boundaries for each region were set by consideration of air pollution levels, population density, geography, and common meteorological conditions. While AQCR's may consist of parts of more than one state, each state has the authority to implement air quality standards only in its portion of the region. Portions of Ohio are included in a total of fourteen different AQCR's, each labeled numerically and by geographical description. Figure 2 illustrates the boundaries of Ohio's AQCR 's.

FIGURE 15 indicates the counties in which the highest reading ozone monitor recorded a three year average of fourth highest eight hour averages greater than the standard. Figure 16 indicates the three year average of the 4 th 

## high 8-Hour averages of ozone. The highest reading site was used. Figure 17 indicates the highest three-month average concentration of lead in each county where data were collected. Table 3 gives a breakdown of air quality standard violations by county. A more detailed presentation of air quality data can be found in Section V of the report.

## The NADB averaging criteria for PM 10 

## and PM 2.5 

## monitors requires that at least seventy-five percent of scheduled samples are collected each quarter. Many intermittent monitors in Ohio run on a six-day sampling schedule (one daily reading every six days) yielding up to sixty-one samples per year. To meet NADB averaging criteria for continuous (hourly) monitors, a monitor must have valid data for at least seventy-five percent of each calendar quarter, approximately 1655 hours. For a valid ozone monitoring day (1-Hr standard), the monitor must collect at least seventy-five percent of the hours between 9am and 9pm.Seneca Sandusky Lucas Fulton Henry Williams

## 27 III. Air Quality Trends

Federal regulations promulgated in 1980 established a number of urban sites in Ohio as part of a national network for determining trends of the criteria pollutants. This network, called National Air Monitoring Stations (NAMS), required the exclusion (for purposes of trend studies only) of those urban sites not designated as NAMS. This requirement permits a more accurate comparison of trends in different areas of the nation. The NAMS group was easily integrated into Ohio's monitoring system starting with the 1980 data.

SO 2 

## TRENDS Data for SO 2 

## continuous instruments in urban areas which met the NAMS siting requirements were used to generate an Ohio SO 2 

## trend study for years 2000 through 2009. The resulting data, based on annual average SO 2 

## concentrations, are plotted in Figure 18 . Percent improvement is calculated using values derived from the method of "least squares".

## 29 Ozone Trends Assessing progress towards the attainment of the ozone air quality standards is difficult because of the influence of meteorology on ozone levels. Differences in weather conditions can cause variations from year to year in both the NAAQS exceedances and the second highest 1-Hour ozone levels. High temperatures, brilliant sunshine and stagnant air contribute to high levels of evaporation from fuel storage tanks, fuel systems and auto refueling activities emitted by millions of cars and trucks. Also daily emissions of nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons by millions of cars and trucks are a major contributor to low level ozone pollution during these atmospheric conditions. In the presence of sunlight,hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides create high levels of groundlevel ozone. One Hour Data: Information is presented from eight metropolitan areas in Ohio for the period of 2000 through 2009. Figure 19 is a bar chart which shows, for each year, the second highest 1-Hour average. In an area where ozone is monitored at several sites, the site with the highest second high for each year was used which may be a different site from year to year. Eight Hour Standard: Eight metropolitan areas are presented with the three year average of the 4 th 

## highest 8-Hour daily ozone averages for the years 2000 through 2009. The year listed is the last year of the three year period. Figure 20 is a bar chart with those concentrations. The ambient air quality standard is a three year average of the fourth high 8-Hour averages, that concentration must be less than or equal to 0.075 parts per million (76 parts per billion) for an area to be in compliance with the standard. The monitor with the highest 4 th 

## high in each three year period was used, not necessarily the same monitor for all years. The three year averages for each site in Ohio are listed in the ozone portion of Section V. AIR QUALITY DATA 2009.

## 38 IV. QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM A. GENERAL Air monitoring data collected by State and Local Air Monitoring Stations (SLAMS)are required to meet Quality Assurance guidance in Appendix A of 40 CFR Part 58. That appendix specifies the minimum quality system requirements for SLAMS data for the pollutants SO 2 

## , NO 2 

## , O 3 

## , CO, Lead, PM 2.5 

## , and PM 10 

## . Air monitoring agencies are required to have a quality system in place. The quality system is the means by which an organization manages the quality of the monitoring data it produces in a systematic, organized manner. It provides a framework for planning, implementing, assessing and reporting work performed by an organization. It provides for required quality assurance and quality control activities. A quality system includes an overall Quality Management Plan and specific Quality Assurance Project Plans for the pollutants measured. For air monitoring data the measurements of accuracy and precision are integral to the quality assurance and quality control of the data. Accuracy is defined as the degree the measurement is close to the true value of the parameter measured. Precision is defined as the repeatability of the measurements. B.

## 39 The accuracy audit data and the precision data are collected by local and state agencies and reported to the US EPA Air Quality System (AQS) within 90 days of the quarter when they were performed. C. The Statistics of Accuracy and Precision Statistical calculations are available from reports in the Air Quality System as calculated from the reported accuracy and precision data. Calculations are as shown in Appendix A of 40 CFR 58. The results of those data are available to the reporting organization that collected the data and to other AQS data users. Statistics that are available for 1-Point Quality Control include results for percent of data completeness, coefficient of variation (CV) and bias for each analyzer plus a combined summary for the reporting organization for the pollutant. Results of collocated data for PM 10 

## and for PM 2.5 

## include the number of collocated data pairs, the percentage completeness and the coefficient of variation. For manual PM 10

## 49 Total Suspended Particulate (TSP) Total suspended particulate matter is defined as any liquid (aerosol) or solid substance found in the atmosphere. Particles larger than approximately 100 microns in diameter settle rapidly due to gravity and are not considered suspended particulates. Fly ash, process dusts, soot and oil aerosols are all common forms of suspended particulate matter. The major sources of particulate pollution are industrial processes, electric power generation, industrial fuel combustion, and dust from plowed fields, roadways, or construction sites. Particulate pollution causes a wide range of damage to materials, as well as limiting visibility and reducing the amount of sunlight reaching the earth. Components of particulates may be harmful, such as sulfates, nitrates and metals. The major adverse health effects on humans are related to damage to the respiratory system through interference with the lung's natural cleansing process. Such adverse health effects are dependent, in a general sense, upon (1) the concentration, size and chemical composition of the particles of which the TSP consists and (2) the concentration and composition of any pollutant gases in combination with it. Particles greater than 10 microns in diameter can rarely penetrate below the larynx and, therefore, are less likely to damage the respiratory system. Particles less than 6 microns in diameter can penetrate the bronchial passage and those of less than 1 micron in diameter can usually penetrate and be deposited in the capillaries and alveoli of the lungs. (I.M. Campbell, Energy and the Atmosphere: A Physical Chemical Approach , John Wiley & Sons, LTD., 1977). An inhaled particle may exert a toxic effect in one or more of the following four ways: (1) the particle may be intrinsically toxic because of its inherent chemical or physical characteristics; (2) the particle may interfere with one or more of the mechanisms that normally clear the respiratory track; (3) the particle may act as a carrier of an absorbed toxic substance; or (4) the particle may act as a carrier of an absorbent toxic substance. It is difficult to obtain direct relationships between exposures to various concentrations of TSP and resulting effects upon human health because of the problems of isolating the effects of TSP from those of other environmental pollutants and of

## 50 reproducing in the laboratory the exact conditions that prevail in the ambient air. Also, it has been observed that exposure to TSP in combination with other pollutants such as sulfur dioxide (SO 2 

## ) produces more severe effects than does exposure to each pollutant separately. Nevertheless, statistical analyses of morbidity and mortality data do indicate a relationship between increased TSP concentrations and increased numbers of hospital and clinic admissions for upper respiratory infections, cardiac diseases, bronchitis, asthma, pneumonia, emphysema and the like. (Air Pollution: Its Origin and Control, Harper & Row, 1976.) TSP ceased to be a criteria pollutant on August 1, 1987, having been replaced by PM 10 

## . Starting in 1987 TSP sampling was gradually replaced by ten micron particulate sampling (PM 10 

## ). There were over 200 TSP monitors in 1987. In 2009 there were 8 monitors reporting TSP data, all are used for lead or other metals monitoring. In July 1997 the U.S. EPA promulgated regulations adding a National Ambient Air Quality Standard for 2.5 micron particulate matter (PM 2.5 

## ). The PM 2.5 

## monitors supplement and partially replace the PM 10 

## network. They started collecting data in January 1999. Sampling Method TSP is measured by the high-volume air sampler method. This instrument draws measured volumes of air through a pre-weighed glass fiber or quartz filter for a specific time (normally 24 hours). Particulate matter in the air is trapped on the filter, which is then re-weighed to determine the mass of the particulates collected. Results are reported as micrograms of particulate matter per cubic meter of air ( μ g/m 3 

## ). Normal sampling is done intermittently with 24-hour samples taken once every six days.Note: The * indicates that the mean does not satisfy summary criteria. UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY AIR QUALITY SYSTEM QUICK LOOK REPORT (AMP450)

## 52 Particulate Matter (<10 μ , PM 10 

## ) On July 1, 1987, the U.S. EPA promulgated revisions to the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for particulate matter. The primary standard includes only those particles with an aerodynamic diameter smaller than or equal to a nominal 10 micrometers. This standard is referred to as the PM 10 

## standard (particulate matter <10 micrometers). From July 1987 until July 18, 1997 the annual standard was 50 μ g/m 3 

## annual arithmetic mean (average over three years' data). The 24-hour standard, not to be exceeded more than once, was 150 μ g/m 3 

## . The standard is that the 24-hour level of 150 μ g/m 3 

## is not to be exceeded more than once per year averaged over three years. The annual standard was retained until the changes to the particulate standards that became effective on December 18, 2006 when the 24-Hour standard was retained and the annual standard was revoked. The standards were changed in July 1997, when the PM 2.5 

## standard was promulgated. Changing the standard from TSP to PM 10 

## and then adding PM 2.5 

## was due to research findings concerning particle size. Particulate matter can harm body tissue such as the linings of the nose and throat and the lungs by simple mechanical irritation. Nasal hairs and sneezing are the body's natural defenses against some of the relatively large particles (15-100 microns). However, small particles can slip past these defenses and penetrate deep into the lungs where they can damage lung tissues. Because of the final action to set the fine particulate standards by U.S. EPA to replace TSP, the Ohio Air Monitoring Network was expanded to include 21 PM 10 

## sites in 1986, to 45 in 1988 and to a high of 91 in 1997. During the year 2009 monitors were operated at 37 sites. Samples are taken each weekday at urban sites used in reporting the Air Quality Index (AQI).Note: The * indicates that the mean does not satisfy summary criteria.

## 56 Particulate Matter <2.5 μ (PM 2.5 

## ) On July 18, 1997, the U.S. EPA promulgated revisions to the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for particulate matter. The primary standard includes only those particles with an aerodynamic diameter smaller than or equal to a nominal 2.5 micrometers. This new standard is referred to as the PM 2.5 

## standard (particulate matter <2.5 micrometers). The annual standard is 15 μ g/m 3 

## annual arithmetic mean (average over three consecutive years' data). The 24-hour standard is met when the 98 th 

## percentile concentration averaged over three consecutive years, is less than or equal to 35 μ g/m 3



## . The 24-Hour standard was changed from 65 μ g/m 3 

## to 35 μ g/m 3 

## effective in December 2006. This revision to the particulate matter program is due to research findings concerning particle size. Particulate matter can harm body tissue such as the linings of the nose and throat and the lungs by simple mechanical irritation. Nasal hairs and sneezing are the body's natural defenses against some of the relatively large particles (15-100 microns). However, small particles can slip past these defenses and penetrate deep into the lungs where they can damage lung tissues. Because of the final action to set the fine particulate standards by U.S. EPA to supplement PM 10 

## , the Ohio Air Monitoring Network had a peak of 52 sites in 2008. There were 49 PM 2.5 

## sites in 2009. Those 49 sites have a total of 96 monitors reporting data. There are 26 continuous monitors and 14 speciation monitors in addition to the 44 Federal Reference monitors. The Federal Reference Monitors are used to determine compliance with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards, the speciation monitors are used for analysis to determine the composition of the particulate and the continuous monitors are primarily used for the Air Quality Index and for “real time” reporting of particulate data to the public. Since the continuous and speciation analysis monitors are not Federal Reference Methods those data are not used to determine compliance with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards.Note: The * indicates that the mean does not satisfy summary criteria.

## 65 Sulfur Dioxide (SO 2 

## ) Sulfur dioxide is a colorless gas formed through the combination of sulfur and oxygen during combustion. The major sources of SO 2 

## are the burning of sulfur-containing fossil fuels (mainly coal), with lesser amounts caused by industrial processes such as smelting. Over 40% of the SO 2 

## found in the ambient air is the result of human activities. The control of SO 2 

## emissions from these sources is accomplished primarily by burning coal or oil with a relatively low sulfur content. Newer boilers may be equipped with flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems that use a caustic solution to scrub SO 2 

## from the exhaust gas stream. Sulfur dioxide is harmful because it can be converted to sulfuric acid (H 2 

## SO 4 

## ) when it comes in contact with moisture, either in the atmosphere, on plants, materials, or in the lungs. Sulfur Dioxide can also be converted to a sulfate (SO 4 2- 

## ) which as a particulate (aerosol) helps form acid rain and can also be a lung irritant. The presence of increased levels of SO 2 

## in the atmosphere has been associated with a higher incidence of respiratory diseases, higher death rates, and property damage. Sampling Methods Sulfur dioxide is measured continuously by instruments using pulsed fluorescent techniques. Fluorescent analyzers irradiate an ambient air sample with ultraviolet light. Sulfur dioxide gas molecules absorb a portion of this energy, and then re-emit the energy at a characteristic wavelength of light. This light energy emitted by SO 2 

## molecules is sensed by a photomultiplier tube and converted to an electronic signal proportional to the concentration of SO 2 

## present. All concentrations for SO 2 

## are given in parts per million (ppm). Reports for 1995 and earlier used the units 'micrograms per cubic meter’ ( μ g/m 3 

## ) to report data. The primary units to report data were changed by U.S. EPA in May of 1996.Note: The * indicates that the mean does not satisfy summary criteria. UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY AIR QUALITY SYSTEM QUICK LOOK REPORT (AMP450)

## 68 Nitrogen Dioxide (NO 2 

## ) Nitrogen dioxide is a toxic gas formed in high temperature combustion processes, when nitrogen in the air is oxidized to nitric oxide (NO) or nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 

## ). The major sources of NO 2 

## are high temperature fuel combustion, motor vehicles, and certain chemical processes. Nitrogen dioxide has been associated with a variety of respiratory diseases through its ability to reduce cell immunity or resistance to bacteria and viruses. Nitrogen dioxide is also harmful due to its involvement in the production of photochemical oxidants such as ozone (O 3 

## ). Sampling Methods Continuous monitoring of nitrogen dioxide is based on a chemiluminescent reaction between NO and O 3 

## . When these two gases react, light energy at a specific wavelength is produced. In the monitor, ambient air is drawn along two paths. In the first path, the air is reacted directly with ozone, and the light energy produced is proportional to the amount of nitric oxide in the air. In the second path, the air is reacted with ozone after it passes through a catalytic reduction surface. The reduction surface converts NO 2 

## to NO and the light energy produced is a measure of the total oxides of nitrogen in the air sample. The electronic difference of these two signals yields the concentration of nitrogen dioxide. All concentrations for NO 2 

## are given in parts per million (ppm).Note: The * indicates that the mean does not satisfy summary criteria. UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY AIR QUALITY SYSTEM QUICK LOOK REPORT (AMP450)

## 70 Carbon Monoxide (CO) Carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas, is the most abundant and widely distributed pollutant found in the lower atmosphere. It is produced by the incomplete combustion of carbon containing fuels, primarily in the internal combustion engine. About 95 to 98% of urban carbon monoxide comes from manmade sources, with transportation vehicles ranking as the largest source. The main effect of CO on human health involves its tendency to reduce the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood by binding chemically to hemoglobin, the substance that carries oxygen to the cells. This may lead to short-term impairment of mental processes. Exposure to concentrations as low as 10-15 ppm for several hours has affected time interval discrimination in test subjects, while exposures of 31 ppm under similar conditions have temporarily altered the function of the brain. Sampling Method Carbon monoxide is monitored continuously by analyzers that operate on the infrared absorption principle. Ambient air is drawn into a sample chamber and a beam of infrared light is passed through it. CO absorbs infrared radiation, and any decrease in the intensity of the beam is due to the presence of CO molecules. This decrease is directly related to the concentration of CO in the ambient air. A special detector measures the difference in the radiation between this beam and a duplicate beam passing through a reference chamber with no CO present. This difference in intensity is electronically translated into a reading of the CO present in the ambient air, measured in parts per million.UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY AIR QUALITY SYSTEM QUICK LOOK REPORT (AMP450)

## 72 Ozone (O 3 

## ) Ozone differs from other pollutants in that it is not directly emitted into the atmosphere from sources. Rather, it is created photochemically in the lower atmosphere by the reaction of volatile organic compounds and oxides of nitrogen in the presence of sunlight. For this reason, it is referred to as a secondary pollutant. Ozone is the predominant oxidant component of photochemical smog. In urban areas, emissions of nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds lead to the formation of ozone and other photochemical oxidants in the lower atmosphere. Nitrogen oxides, important in triggering the sequence of photochemical reactions, are emitted primarily from combustion sources such as the internal combustion engine, electric power generation units, and gas and oil-fired space heaters. Volatile organic compounds, important in sustaining the reactions, are emitted in the exhausts of gasoline, diesel and jet engines, through the evaporation of gasoline and solvents such as dry-cleaning fluids, and from industrial and non-industrial surface coating operations such as paint booths, from open burning, and other combustion sources. Although ozone is beneficial in the upper atmosphere, where it screens out ultraviolet rays from the sun, it is harmful in the lower atmosphere. Due to the role of temperature and sunlight in its formation, the largest concentrations occur during the summer months. Ozone irritates mucous membranes of the nose and throat, causes eye irritation, reduces resistance to respiratory infections, damages plants and contributes to the deterioration of materials. Individuals with asthma or disease of the heart or circulatory system experience symptoms when concentrations are above the air quality standards. Prior to July 1997 there was a one hour standard of 0.12 ppm with more than three exceedances being a violation of the standard. The one hour standard was revoked in 2006. The standard from July 1997 to May 27, 2008 was an eight hour average of 0.08 ppm with the fourth high eight hour average averaged in each year over three consecutive years.

## 73 The current (2009) standard is a three year average of the fourth highest eight hour averages at each monitoring site. If that three year average is greater than 0.075 ppm (76 ppb or greater) a violation of the standard has occurred In 2001 The United States Supreme Court found U.S. EPA’s previously proposed implementation plan for ozone unlawful and further held that, in the setting of a standard for ozone pursuant to Section 109 of the Clean Air Act U.S. EPA must set air quality standards at the level that is “requisite”-no higher or lower than is necessary-to protect the public health with an adequate margin of safety. The Supreme Court then sent the case back to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals to review U.S. EPA’s subsequent actions. On March 26, 2002, that court upheld U.S. EPA’s revision of the ozone NAAQS, which had been published in the Federal Register by U.S. EPA as a proposal on November 14, 2001. This report contains a printout of the one hour data and eight hour average data, as in previous reports, and printouts of the three year average of the fourth high eight hour averages calculated for each site in Ohio for the years 2007 through 2009 and the four highest eight hour averages during 2009. A three year average was not calculated if one or more years had insufficient data. Sampling Methods Ozone is monitored continuously using analyzers that operate on ultraviolet absorption techniques. Ozone absorbs ultraviolet light. Analyzers designed to measure ozone by ultraviolet photometry use this property. An air sample is drawn into the analyzer and irradiated with an ultraviolet light of 253.7 nanometers wavelength. The amount of light absorbed is related to the amount of ozone present. This is the type of monitor used by Ohio EPA and our Local Air Agencies. All concentrations for ozone are given in parts per million (ppm).

## 74 On the following pages are tables of ozone sites with the: Highest through fourth highest 1-Hour ozone values Highest through fourth highest 8-Hour ozone values Three year average of fourth highest 8-Hour ozone values (see NAAQS TABLE 1) First day in each year from 1992 that recorded an exceedance of the 1-Hour or 8-Hour standard with the number of sites and the total number of exceedances Last day in the year upon which an exceedance of the 1-Hour or 8-Hour standard occurred with the number of sites and values listedUNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY AIR QUALITY SYSTEM QUICK LOOK REPORT (AMP450)

## 86 Lead Airborne lead in urban areas was once primarily caused by vehicles using leaded fuels. Sources of airborne lead now include lead smelting facilities, lead-acid storage battery manufacturing plants and other manufacturing operations. In the period 1978-1991 lead concentrations at traffic oriented sites dropped by over 90%, reflecting the removal of lead from gasoline. In March 1999 the U.S. EPA promulgated new rules for lead monitoring that eliminated the requirement for traffic oriented sites and emphasizes monitoring at industrial sources. We discontinued monitoring at traffic oriented sites after the first calendar quarter of 1999. In September 2008 the U.S. EPA changed the National Ambient Air Quality Standard for lead from 1.5 g/m 3 

## as a calendar quarter average “ not to be exceeded ” to 0.15 g/m 3 

## as a running three month average. This much stricter standard is designed to provide increased protection to the public, particularly children. The new lead standard also requires increased monitoring at presumed lead sources that have emissions of greater than 1.0 ton per year. These source oriented sites are required to be in place and operating as of January 1, 2010. One site is also required in each Core Based Statistical Area (CBSA), essentially large urban areas, of over 500,000 persons. The population oriented sites are to be in place and operating no later than January 1, 2011. Lead is a stable compound that can accumulate in the human body. Its health related effects include interference with the blood forming process and the normal functions of nervous and renal systems. Young children are the age group most susceptible to the adverse effects of lead. Sampling Method Lead concentrations in ambient air are determined by the reference method promulgated by U.S. EPA. The lead sample is collected on a filter using a high-volume air sampler and the TSP method. In this method, one 3⁄4"×8" portion of the TSP filter

## 87 is washed with hot, dilute nitric acid. The lead compounds are dissolved into the acid solution. The solution is then analyzed by the inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) technique to determine the amount of lead. Sample solutions are introduced by pneumatic nebulization into a plasma, in which desolvation, atomization and ionization occurs. Ions are extracted from the plasma through a differentially pumped vacuum interface and separated on the basis of their mass-to-charge ratio by a quadrupole mass spectrometer. In the past a month's collection of filters was analyzed as a composite sample. Most sites collect so little lead that individual sampling days ’ analysis would have lead concentrations below the detection limit of the methods used at the time. Some sites’ filters are still an alyzed this way. Newer sites and sites that are being used to meet the new monitoring network requirements have individual sampling events (days) analyzed. Sites that are reporting more than 12 observations (#OBS) in a year are having the individual samples analyzed. Concentrations are reported in micrograms per cubic meter of air ( μ g/m 3

## VI. Air Toxics Monitoring 2009

## Blank Page 86

## 93 AIR TOXICS MONITORING INTRODUCTION As part of its air quality monitoring program, Ohio EPA, Division of Air Pollution Control (DAPC) operates a network of air toxics monitors as part of a state wide Air Toxics Monitoring Program (ATMP). This Air Toxic sampling network is modeled after programs and methodologies recommended by U.S. EPA. The emphasis has been on urban toxics monitoring for volatile organic compounds and heavy metals. Brief sections describing the sampling and analytical procedures for the pollutants follow the introduction. 1.) Main focus of the ATMP is on urban monitoring, looking for major risk areas where people live. In this effort sampling has concentrated on groups of compounds. volatile organic compounds (VOC), examples: benzene, chloroform, styrene, toluene etc. heavy metals, examples: arsenic, cadmiumThe majority of the sampling has been conducted at semipermanent monitoring sites where monitoring extends beyond a 6 month period. The intermittent sampling stations at these types of sites have been dedicated to VOCs and heavy metals monitoring. See the list following the description of the volatile organic analysis method for the VOC target compounds. The list of target metals is included in the metals description section. Semi-permanent monitoring projects have been conducted in: Cleveland - VOC - Urban, Metals - Urban Middletown - VOC - Source, Metals - Source Columbus - Metals - Urban, VOC - Urban Marietta - Metals - Source Delta - Metals - Source East Liverpool - Metals - Source Steubenville - VOC - Urban Marion - Metals - Urban Bellefontaine - Metals - Urban Elmore - Metals - Urban2.) Throughout 2009 DAPC has worked to expand sampling at semipermanent sites with an emphasis on smaller urban areas. Future

## 94 sampling projects will involve additional sampling locations or reallocation of current resources to other locations. Expanded air toxics sampling will involve adding other parameters to existing sites. DAPC’s efforts will also include more efficient use of short term sampling. In the past sampling efforts have included: Cross Media pollution monitoring Urban air toxics Great Lakes deposition monitoring Source monitoring Emissions verification Complaint investigation Emergency Episode Monitoring Post-remediation Monitoring During 2009 DAPC was involved in several minor monitoring projects throughout the state. However, due to the limited scope of these short term and grab sampling projects they are not included in the data summaries for this year. The main project of this nature was the U.S. EPA sponsored the School Air Toxics Initiative, an effort developed to implement U.S. EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson’s commitment to assess potentially elevated air toxics levels at some of our nation’s schools. This initiative, involved sampling the air around 62 schools nationally, and 6 in Ohio communities. The parameters of interest included volatile organic compounds, metals, polyaromatic hydrocarbons and Diisocyanates over a 60

– 90 day period to allow for the collection at least 10 samples at each location. U.S. EPA will produce a full report for each of the schools involved in the sampling studies, results can be found at http://www.epa.gov/schoolair/ . Ohio EPA DAPC ’s main special project for 2009 involved an environmental sampling project in the Clyde, Ohio area where a cancer cluster had been identified. DAPC will compile a separate Clyde Air Sampling Report for the VOC sampling portion of the project. However, since the metals sampling part of that project only included one site that data summary is included in this report. The sampling and analytical methods for VOCs and heavy metals are described below.

## 95 VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUND SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS SAMPLING A major component of the Air Toxics Monitoring Program is ambient sampling for volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These are compounds that are generally found in the vapor state. Some organic compounds can be chlorinated, (contain chlorine) or just hydrocarbons, (contain just hydrogen and carbon atoms). Most of the VOC samples were collected using a whole air sampling system that pumped ambient air into a stainless steel canister. The canister, which is evacuated prior to use, is a storage container which allows an air sample to be maintained virtually unchanged until it is analyzed. In addition to the pumped sampling method, a number of samples were collected using thevacuum of the canister to draw in an air sample. These, vacuumfilled “grab” samples usually take only a few minutes to collect and were useful for collecting transient odors or potentially high concentration samples. DAPC is now capable of collecting specific samples for 1, 3, 8 and 24 hours using this grab sampling method.Initially samples were collected sporadically, however as semipermanent sites were established the sampling program has become more routine. With that, an attempt has been made to collect samples at least twice a month, with a sampling frequency consistent with the national air toxics monitoring schedule of once every 12 th 

## day, over a 24 hour period. The specific procedures for this type of sampling can be found in the U.S. EPA Compendium of Methods for the Determination of Toxic Organic Compound in Ambient Air in the section TO-14

ANALYSIS The volatile tendency of VOCs allows them to be vaporized when heated, (if not already in that form) and to be injected into an analytical device called a gas chromatograph (GC). As a sample passes through a GC column, the various compounds separate out of the sample mixture. As the individual compounds exit the column, a detector records a response. That response is illustrated on a chromatogram as a peak. The area of each peak indicates the concentration of the compound. Compound identification is accomplished by comparing the retention times of the peaks on a chromatogram with those from a chromatogram of a known mixture of compounds. Retention time is the time it takes for a particular compound to reach the detector. As long as the analytical conditions remain the same, a compound from one analysis to the next will have the same retention time. The typical analytical system used for this study utilized a GC with a special detector called a mass spectrometer (MS). The

## 96 combination, a GC/MS, can be used to analyze a sample by separating it into its individual components which are then broken down into mass fragments which form a fingerprint by which a compound can be identified. All of DAPC’s canister analyses were conducted at the Ohio EPA Division of Environmental Services (DES). The analytical procedures performed by the laboratory targeted an expanded list of 71 VOCs for identification and quantitation. The following list includes the current 71 parameters of the analytical target compounds list. Most of the target compounds have a detection limit of 0.2 ppbv. The Exceptions are Acetone, 2-Butanone, Carbon Disulfide, total m&p-Xylenes, which have limits 0.4 ppbv or higher depending of the sample concentration.

## 98 Beyond this list of compounds, additional compounds can be detected and tentatively identified during the analysis of VOC samples. If during the analysis, an unidentified compound of significant quantity, (greater than 0.2 ppb) exist in a sample it can be identified during the MS analysis. However, due to the uncertainty involved with the identification of these additional, non-target compounds and the vast number of them detected they are not included in this report. As the technology and the methods improve and new techniques are developed, it is expected that the target compounds list will be periodically modified. It is also expected that the list will change as U.S. EPA’s emphasis on air toxics compounds changes. The following tables summarize the data from the routine canister samples collected during 2009. Throughout 2009 over 200, 24-hour samples were collected at 9 permanent VOC monitoring sites.

## 106 HEAVY METALS SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS SAMPLING Ambient air toxic monitoring on a routine basis for heavy metals (other than lead), by Ohio EPA DAPC, was initiated in 1989 and has continued. Since that time all of DAPC’s air filter samples have been analyzed by the Ohio EPA Division of Environmental Services (DES). A summary of the results can be found in the following tables. Sampling for heavy metals is conducted using a high volume total suspended particulate (TSP) sampler. With this sampler, particulate matter in the air is collected on a glass fiber filter. Sampling is done intermittently with 24- hour samples collected once every six days. The operating procedures for lead can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, 40 CFR, Part 50, Appendix G. These basic procedures are also used for the other metals. ANALYSIS Filters collected at each site were analyzed as a monthly composite. Typically there are 5 sampling days in which a filter is collected. From these individual filters one strip is cut and combined from strips from all the filters collected that month and analyzed as one sample for the month. The acid extracted samples are analyzed by the inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) technique to determine the amount of lead. SUMMARY OF ICP METHOD: Sample solutions are introduced by pneumatic nebulization into a plasma, in which desolvation occurs. Ions are extracted from the plasma through a differentially pumped vacuum interface and separated on the basis of their mass-to-charge ratio by a quadrupole mass spectrometer. The ions transmitted through the quadrupole are detected by an electron multiplier or Faraday detector. Ion intensities at each mass are recorded and compared to those obtained from external calibration standards to generate concentration values for the samples. Results are corrected for instrument drift and matrix effects using internal standards. Additional corrections are applied as necessary to correct for isobaric and polyatomic elemental interferences.

## 107 HEAVY METALS PARAMETERS Historically lead was the NAAQS Criteria pollutant released from gasoline into the ambient air. Monitoring for it established the lead filter analysis monitoring program. Over the years DAPC added other metals to the filter analysis program. As lead was phased out of gasoline other metals have risen to greater concern. At one time it was cadmium and from one particular industry it was beryllium. But now Ohio is focused on manganese in several communities. However, trends continue to change and lead has once again become the driving pollutant for filter analysis. As the only metal that is Criteria Pollutant lead is the pollutant that drives the metals monitoring program. With the establishment of a new NAAQS for lead, 0.15 μ g/m3 from the previous standard of 1.5 μ g/m3 and the requirement to monitor near specific sources, lead has been re-established as a pollutant of concern. In 2009 DAPC established a program to analyze each filter collected from a required lead TSP sampler for lead. In 2010 DAPC will have every TSP sampler operating at a required site submit each filter collected for lead analysis. For this particular section the data collected is from the monthly composite samples collected and analyzed. All monthly composite particulate filter samples collected by DAPC are routinely analyzed for eight metals. arsenic cadmium chromium beryllium lead 1 

## nickel zinc manganese From each sample, most parameters are analyzed using a very sensitive ICPMS analytical system which significantly lowers the detection limit from the standard ICP instrument. The following parameters, which are typically detected in higher concentrations, are still analyzed with the older ICP method. Iron potassium zinc manganese Particulate mercury that can be detected from a glass or quartz fiber filter has been added to the parameter list for a number of samples from sites in communities with specific concerns about potential mercury sources. Mercury analysis for each sample is performed separately from the other metals. Total mercury is determined using a cold vapor method developed by DES.

## 118 FUTURE The long term air toxics monitoring goals of DAPC will focus on the requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA), particularly Section 112, and will support the development of EPA’s Integrated Urban Air Toxics Strategy. In addition the air toxics monitoring efforts will incorporate relative elements of the mission and goals of DAPC to protect the environment for the benefit of all and to develop improved air toxics information. The current strategy of urban based monitoring has evolved over the years and the number of sites and locations have changed depending on resources and priorities. The major emphasis of existing sampling projects is to develop and establish cost effective, routine sampling and analysis procedures. U.S. EPA has provided the Compendium of Recommended Methods for the Determination of Toxic Organic Compounds in Ambient Air. Methods have been updated to allow for more uniform approaches for sampling and analyzing various groups of compounds. New methods have been developed and added for compounds not previously targeted. There is even a Compendium of Methods for the Determination of Air Pollutants In Indoor Air . Ohio EPA’s own air toxics monitoring capacity has been enhanced with the expansion of the air canister sample analysis capability by the Division of Environmental Services (DES). Future Goals of the division will be modified to be compatible with the National Air Toxics Assessment Network activities. The intent of this network is to provide measurements of ambient concentrations of air toxics at monitoring sites throughout the nation for the estimation of human and environmental exposure to air toxics, and the assessment of risk due to air toxics. As part of the current grant commitment to U.S. EPA, DAPC will continue its effort to submit future Air Toxics Data to the AQS Database. As part of that effort DAPC will compile all air toxics data collected in previous years so that it may eventually be submitted to AQS. DAPC has already made an effort to have all metals data submitted to AQS. An intermediate effort of DAPC will be to conduct follow-up sampling efforts for the U.S. EPA School Air Toxics Program. Some of these areas were a high priority before the EPA study and will continue to be until the situation is mitigated. One development of this program was the expanded role of district and local air agencies into air toxics sampling.

## 119 Modernization: DAPC will pursue information on new technology such as:  Continuous gas chromatography, mass spectrometry  ICP/MS - to be utilized at DES for metals analysis

– analysis for some parameters started in 2007  Updates of the Compendium of Recommended Methods are available at the following: http://www.epa.gov/ttn/amtic/airtox.html and http://www.epa.gov/ttn/amtic/inorg.html and  Modernizing the Stainless Steel Canister inventory  Evaluate future training needs for Air Toxics Monitoring:  sampling methods,  analytical procedures,  equipment

## 121 VII. AIR QUALITY INDEX (AQI) There has been a daily reporting of ambient air quality in Ohio's major metropolitan areas in some form since 1971. A national Pollution Standards Index (PSI) was established in 1977 to report air quality. This index was adopted by Ohio EPA's District Offices and the local air agencies (LAA's) to inform the public of daily air quality. In the summer of 1999 the PSI scale was revised and renamed the Air Quality Index (AQI). It was modified to add 2.5 micron particulate matter (PM 2.5 

## ) and to accommodate the 8-Hour ozone standard. The U.S. EPA has started the regulatory process of changing the AQI for PM 2.5 

## because of the change in the 24-Hour standard which took place in late 2006. That process had not been completed by the end of 2009. The AQI (see Table 12) is a uniform "scaling" of five pollutants: particulate (PM 10 

## and PM 2.5 

## ), sulfur dioxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide, and carbon monoxide. The concentration level of each of these is calculated every day to determine the AQI. The pollutant with the highest AQI is reported to the media. When the AQI exceeds, or is expected to exceed, 100 in a major city, the agency concerned issues a "health advisory". When pollution levels exceed an AQI of 200 and are projected to persist, an "air pollution episode" exists and the Governor declares an "alert". This initiates mandatory cutbacks of emissions from specified facilities to alleviate the situation. If the AQI were to surpass 300, 400 or 500, progressively greater cutbacks would be implemented to reduce pollutants to an acceptable level. The AQI trend shows that Ohio's air quality has improved significantly. Although alerts were commonplace in the early 1970's, none have happened in over twenty years, and the number of health advisories has been greatly reduced.21ELBATrtnecnoCtnatulloPhtiWseulaVIQAfOnosirapmoCsroloCdetaicossAdnAsdroWrotpircseD,snoitaMP01m/gμ3MP5.2m/gμ3OCmppOS2mppenozOmpp1ON2mppXEDNIEULAVruoH-42 ruoH-42 ruoH-8 ruoH-42 ruoH-8 ruoH-1 ruoH-1roloC yrogetaC05-045-0 4.51-0.0 4.4-0.0neerGdooG001-15451-55 4.04-5.51 4.9-5.4wolleYetaredoM051-101 452-551 4.56-5.04 4.21-5.9 461.0-521.0egnarOyhtlaehnUevitisneSrofspuorG002-151 453-552 4.051-5.5624.51-5.21 402.0-561.0deRyhtlaehnU003-102 424-553 4.052-5.05124.03-5.51 404.0-502.0 42.1-56.0elpruPyreVyhtlaehnU-103 -524 5.0522- -5.03 506.0 )3( -504.0 -52.1nooraMsuodrazaH1zorH-8nodesabIQAehttroperotderiuqeryllarenegerasaerA.desusirH-1rorH-8ehtfomumixamehT.seulaveno2MProfleveLmraHtnacifingiStnereffidafI5.2.degnahceblliwsrebmuneseht,detaglumorpsi3(seulavIQArehgihenifedtonodseulavenozOrH-8$enozorH-1htiwdetaluclacerarehgihro103foseulavIQA.)103.snoitartnecnoc

## 123 AQI Chart The accompanying table shows the AQI values for selected counties. It should be noted that the daily AQI values that are calculated and reported on a daily basis for cities in these counties may differ from those in the table. The daily AQI is based on a limited number of monitors (particularly PM 10 

## and PM 2.5 

## ). This table uses data from all Federal Reference Monitors in the county. From those data the highest AQI value is chosen for each day. The data in TABLE 13 is for the AQI in effect during 2009, after the ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard was changed. The table gives a general representation of the relative air quality in these counties. There were no readings in the “very unhealthy” or “hazardous” categories.
