Review of the Secondary National Ambient Air Quality Standards for Oxides of Nitrogen, Oxides of Sulfur, and Particulate Matter
Traduction automatique locale · Langue originale de la source
Résumé
Based on the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) review of the air quality criteria for ecological effects and secondary national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for oxides of nitrogen (N oxides), oxides of sulfur (SO X ), and particulate matter (PM), the EPA is revising the existing secondary sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ) standard to an annual average, averaged over three consecutive years, with a level of 10 parts per billion (ppb). Additionally, the Agency is retaining the existing secondary standards for N oxides and PM, without revision. The EPA is also finalizing revisions to the data handling requirements for the secondary SO 2 NAAQS.
