3 Good Intentions + Good Science + Good Process = Real Progress

4 Clean Air Hamilton Strategy Risk Management Approach Applied to Community Wide Actions Identify Problem Measure/Evaluate Prioritize Risks Inform Community Cooperative Actions www.cleanair.hamilton.ca

5 The Problem Sahsuvaroglu & Jerrett 2003 Health Impacts of Air Pollutants in Hamilton

6 Health Impacts in Hamilton – by Air Pollutant Sahsuvaroglu & Jerrett 2003

7 What We’d Expect to See (National Pollutant Release Inventory) Carbon Monoxide – 66% Transportation, 23% Industry Sulphur Dioxide – 92% Industry, 5% Transportation Nitrogen Oxides – 57% Transportation, 37% Industry PM 10 – 73% Open Sources/Road Dust, 18% Industry Note: MOE identified trackout/road dust resuspension as a major problem

8 Emission Sources by Regions in Hamilton Flamborough/ Waterdown East Mtn NE Ind Stny Crk

22 Road Dust/Trackout 18 Locations Monitored, 14 Sources Identified Street Resident Criterion – 50 ug/m3 over 24 hrs

23 PM10 ROAD DUST Ben Garden, Savas Kanaroglou, Pat DeLuca, Spatial analysis Unit, McMaster University

24 Conclusions Survey for only short time period, in winter season, limited to specific areas. High levels of Airborne Particle Pollution due to Trackout/Resuspension were observed in 18 locations. 14 specific sources were identified. Resuspended Road Dust and Fugitive Emissions are very significant sources of Airborne Particle Pollution in Hamilton.
