Dear Ms. Martinez: '

" ' 

### The purpose of this document is to provide information concerning the operation ofthe ambient 

### air monitoring network by the New Mexico Environment Department (NMED) Air Quality Bureau (AQB) in 2008. Under 40 CFR, Part 58, Subpart B, States are required to submit an annual monitoring network review to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regional office in Dallas Texas. This network plan is required to provide the framework for establishment and maintenance of an 

### air quality surveillance system. The annual monitoring network plan must be made available for public inspection for at least 30 days prior to submission to EPA The plan was posted from May 29, 2009 through July 6, 2009. No comments were received.


### Overview In 2008 the Bureau operated 30 criteria 

### air pollutant monitoring sites located in 11 of the State's 33 counties. All 

### air monitoring locationsare sited in major population centers or near known pollution sources. The Ambient 

### Air Monitoring Section is working with a full-time staffof six; there is one vacancy. ' :.f'able 

### 1 contains a listing of all New Mexico Environment Department,

### A co-located ozone monitor was installed at the Navajo Lake site on November 13, 2008. 

### Network Changes Anticipated changes to the monitoring network during 2009 include relocation of the Rio Rancho site and the installation ofan ozone monitor at the Los Lunas site. Relocation of the Farmington PM site (35-045-0006) was necessary due to an 

### NMED office in September of 

### 2008. The AQS# ofthe new site is (35-045-0019). 

### Other Projects Northern 

### air monitoring staff continued a second EPA-sponsored project to collect passive ammonia monitoring project in San Juan County, New Mexico. This project 

### will hopefully continue for the next two years. A 

### nephelometer was installed at the Navajo Lake site in 2008. Summary 

### The entire monitoring station at Rio Rancho 

### will need to be relocated in the near future. Construction of apartment units immediately adjacent to the site 

### has impacted siting criteria. Section staffis still looking for another suitable monitoring location in the Rio Rancho area. Recently AQB has been involved in communications with the village of Corrales in an effort to find a location there.

### Depending on funding decisions, AQB will 

### scrutinize its investment and operation of all of its monitoring sites and pollutants. Our intention is to keep focus on pollutants of concern while being sureto continue to servethe needs and to satisfy the expectations ofthe New Mexico communities. AQB will 

### inform RegionVI staff of our plansearlyin the process to make sure that state and federal priorities continue to be aligned. Other 

### Issues; Pb Monitoring 

### According to emissions inventory data, New Mexico has no sources emitting more than 1.0 

### TNr. In 

### fact, the valuefromthe highest emitter, the Prewitt Escalante Generating Station, is only 0.022 

### TNr. As 

### a consequence, NMED I 

### AQB does not intend to conduct source-oriented monitoring for Pb. Regarding CBSA-based Pb monitoring, NMEDjurisdictions havenot been deemed as 

### CBSA candidates.
