Yuba-Sutter Transit

 

                                 Air Quality

To Save the air : drive less,   take public transit,   carpool,   refuel your car in early morning or late evening and never top off,   link your trips,   telework,   avoid consumer spray products,   don't use charcoal lighter fluid to start your BBQ fire,   and do your garden chores gasoline-free.

        Look Up Real-Time Air Quality Conditions:

            1. Find current pollutant concentration here

(This link will take you to the Air Resources Board AQMIS2 webpage that displays current pollutants concentrations monitored at the Yuba City site.  Scroll down to the table and select which pollutant you are interested in from the "Pollutants Monitored" section.  You may select NO2, ozone,  or particulate pollution (BAM PM 2.5), or select meteorological conditions such as wind speed or temperature.)

            2. Enter Concentration into AQI Calculator Here

(The AQI, or Air Quality Index, is a tool developed by EPA that relates pollutant concentration and possible health impacts.  To use, enter the current concentration of a particular pollutant obtained from the Yuba City monitoring station [above] into the AQI Calculator.)

     Or: Log onto www.airnow.gov
