(b) Routine Tribal air quality monitoring consists of one-in-six or one-in-three day rotating sampling for PM-10 and PM-2.5 (particulate matter of 10 and 2.5 microns in size). The air quality sampling program also conducts monitoring for compliance assurance and to record unusual air quality events.
(c) The Tribe uses standards set by the state of California in making air quality determinations.
(d) The air quality monitoring program will continue in the same manner during the burn season, and the results of sampling will be used to make determinations on compliance with air quality standards and the success of this SMP in protecting smoke-sensitive areas from harmful air quality.
