Editor's Update 3/24/11: We updated this story to replace the graphic for the Daily AQI for Sublette County for 2008. We posted an incorrect graphic displaying wrong information with the original story. The graphics accompaning this story were added by Pinedale Online and were not part of the original DEQ media release. That graphic has been removed and the correct graphic posted.

Original media release by DEQ 3/13/11

Upper Green River Basin, Wyo. - The Air Quality Division (AQD) of Wyoming’s Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), in conjunction with the Wyoming Department of Health (WDH), is issuing an ozone advisory for Monday, March 14, 2011, for the Upper Green River Basin, in Sublette County.

Ozone is an air pollutant that can cause respiratory health effects especially to children, the elderly and people with existing respiratory conditions. People in these sensitive groups should limit strenuous or extended outdoor activities, especially in the afternoon and evening. More information on ozone and the health effects of ozone are available at the Wyoming Department of Health website, http://www.health.wyo.gov.

An ozone advisory is issued when weather conditions appear to be favorable for the formation of ozone. Ozone appears to be elevated in the Basin when there is a presence of ozone-forming precursor emissions including oxides of nitrogen and volatile organic compounds coupled with strong temperature inversions, low winds, snow cover, and bright sunlight.

Current information on ozone levels at the Air Quality Division’s monitoring stations at Daniel, Pinedale, Boulder, Juel Spring and the Wyoming Range can be found at www.wyvisnet.com.
