Why Monitor Air Quality? Leroy Williams Gila River Indian Community

Why Air Monitoring? Judge compliance with and/or progress made towards meeting ambient air quality standards Activate emergency control procedures that prevent or alleviate air pollution episodes Observe pollution trends throughout region, including non-urban areas Provide a data base for Research evaluation of effects: urban, land-use, and transportation planning Development and evaluation of abatement strategies Development and validation of diffusion models

Air Quality on reservation has important implications for Quality of life Culture and religion Economic development Other

One way to protect and assess air quality: develop ambient air monitoring program

GRIC DEQ Air Monitoring Program Collected quality data for ozone and particulate matter since 2002 Three air monitoring stations Sacaton Casa Blanca St Johns

AQI Colors EPA assigned specific color to each AQI category Easier to understand community air pollution risk. Examples: Orange = unhealthy for sensitive groups Red = unhealthy for everyone
