PM10

PM10 is fine mineral, metal, smoke, soot, and dust particles suspended in the air. In addition to reducing visibility, fine particulate matter can lodge in the lungs and cause serious, long-term respiratory illness and other health problems. Sources of PM10 in our city include road dust, vehicle exhaust, mineral quarries, grading, coal-fired boilers, and open burning.
