a. AAMMS Teleconference, February 

10, 2009—Ozone Network Design 

In March 2008, the final rule for the 

Ozone NAAQS was published (73 FR 

16436). The rule revised both the 

primary and secondary standards and 

set identical, 8-hour standards of 0.075 

ppm expressed to three decimal places 

for both public health and welfare. In 

the March 2008 rule, EPA committed to 

develop separate rulemaking to support 

changes in the monitoring network 

requirements based on the revisions of 

the primary and secondary O3 NAAQS. 

EPA is also considering changes to the 

required O3 monitoring season. EPA’s 

Office of Air and Radiation (OAR) 

requested the consultative advice of the 

AAMMS on the options for network 

design and O3 monitoring season to 

guide the development of potential 

monitoring requirements. Additional 

information on the O3 monitoring issues 

is available on the OAR Web page at 

http://www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/ 

standards/ozone/s_o3_index.html. 

b. AAMMS Teleconference, February 

11, 2009—Coarse Particle Speciation 

In October 2006, EPA issued the final 

rule to revise both the primary and 

secondary NAAQS for PM (71 FR 

61144). The Agency decided to retain 

PM10 as the indicator for thoracic 

coarse particles as promulgated in July 

1997 (62 FR 38652). The final rule 

establishes ambient air monitoring 

requirements for a PM10–2.5 indicator of 

thoracic coarse particles to support 

research on particle distribution, 

sources, and health effects. A new 

Federal Reference Method (FRM) was 

also promulgated in the rule for 

measuring the mass concentration of 

PM10–2.5 in ambient air. As part of the 

revisions to the Ambient Air Monitoring 

Regulations, PM10–2.5 speciation 

monitoring will be required at National 

Core (NCore) multi-pollutant monitoring 

stations by January 1, 2011. EPA OAR 

requested AAMMS consultative advice 

on the issues related to PM10–2.5

speciation and monitoring. Additional 

information on the monitoring issues 

specific to coarse particles is available 

on the OAR Web page at http:// 

www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/standards/pm/ 

s_pm_index.html. 

Technical Contacts: Any technical 

questions concerning the indicator and 

ambient air monitoring issues related to 

the O3 or PM NAAQS can be directed 

Mr. Lewis Weinstock, OAQPS, at phone: 

(919) 541–3661, or e-mail 

weinstock.lewis@epa.gov. 

Availability of Meeting Materials: The 

Agency documents for both 

consultations will be posted on the EPA 

Technology Transfer Network (TTN) 

Web site on the respective pages for the 

Ozone and PM NAAQS at http:// 

www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/. Prior to the 

meetings, the agendas and other 

materials for these AAMMS 

teleconferences will be accessible 

through the calendar link on the blue 

navigation bar at http://www.epa.gov/
