Scottish Air Quality Seminar 2009 Dr Geeta Puri Research & Science Division

Highlights?? Scottish partisol report and revised background maps published Biomass & air quality report Emerging trends and indicators for air quality in Scotland Google Map-enabled website Incorporating SEPA SPRI data onto website

12 out of 32 local authorities declared AQMAs in 2008 of which 8 have been for PM 10 (or PM 10 & NO 2 ) = 14 PM10 related AQMAs A reduction of just 2 ug of PM 10 can mean the difference between declaring or not declaring an AQMA in many Scottish local authorities The cumulative impact of biomass boilers on PM 10 & PM 2.5 loads in urban areas can be significant and will make it difficult to achieve exposure reduction targets The ratio of PM 10 :PM 2.5 measured in Scotland is consistent with the European average of 0.65 validating the figures proposed by the SG or future targets for both pollutants

Last year of funding currently approved for the website/database Need to review its cost vs benefit and prepare a case for funding to the Minister beyond 2010 AEAT and SG will be asking all stakeholders for feedback towards the end of 2009 regarding how useful (or otherwise) the website has been Annual newsletter – March 09 Annual Report – May 09
