µg/m3 - Micrograms per cubic meter of air.
AAM - Annual Arithmetic Mean
AGM - Annual Geometric Mean
-- - Pollutant not monitored.
* - Less than 12 full months of data. May not be representative.
** - Salton Sea Desert Air Basin.
e) - PM10 samples were collected every 6 days using the size-selective inlet high volume sampler with quartz filter media.
g) - Federal PM10 standard is AAM > 50 µg/m3; state standard is AGM > 30 µg/m3.
i) - The data for the two samples collected on high-wind-days (157 µg/m3 on 3/17/97 and 182 µg/m3 on 4/28/97) were excluded according to the EPA’s Natural Events Policy.
