1990 ANNUAL REPORT ON AIR QUALITY
IN NEW ENGLAND
This report represents 1990 annual air quality information for all states
in New England. The majority of the data included in this report were submitted to
EPA by the states from their ambient monitoring networks in accordance with 40
CFR58. The only data from industrial monitors which have been included are from
the Massachusetts Industrial Network, EPA-required networks in New Hampshire and
from Maine's licensing program which supplements the state network.
This report is intended to list potential nonattainment areas for planning
purposes. The majority of data used have been evaluated and verified by EPA;
however, for the areas listed as nonattainment, the data may require further evaluation
by both EPA and the states. This report reflects the status of the AIRS database in
April, 1991.
Table 1 is a summary of the status of the National Air Monitoring Sites
(NAMS) and the State/Local Air Monitoring Sites (SLAMS) submitting data to
Region I. This table lists the number of sites operating, the required number of sites,
the number of sites reporting precision and accuracy data, and the number of sites not
meeting EPA minimum data capture requirements. Following Table 1 is a list of
health effects of the criteria pollutants.
Table 2 shows the number of stations violating the National Ambient
Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) and the total number of stations reporting data
during 1990.
Table 3 lists, by state, a summary of criteria pollutant data from sites
in each state in New England, and industrial sites from New Hampshire,
Massachusetts, and Maine. The information presented compares the measured values
to each NAAQS. The information included is the number of exceedences, the
maximum and second high values, and the annual means (arithmetic mean or average
for SO2, PM,0 and NO^. For intermittent data, an annual mean is not valid unless
there are four valid quarters. For PM10, 75% of the scheduled samples must be
available for a quarter to be considered valid. For continuous data, 75 percent of the
year must be available to calculate a valid annual average.
This table includes charts of selected air quality monitoring sites which show
a five year span of data for PM10, Pb, CO, SO2, and NO2. For ozone, a chart of the
number of days exceeding the standard each year for the last five years is used. Also
included is a discussion of the compliance status for each pollutant. In addition, state
maps are included which display pollutant levels and location of monitoring sites.
-------
Table 4 shows the number of stations violating the NAAQS by Air
Quality Control Region (AQCR), as well as the total number of monitors in each
AQCR. A map delineating the AQCRs in Region I is included at the end of this
table.
Table 5 has been developed to point out areas where air quality levels
have exceeded the emergency, warning, or alert episode levels. An air pollution alert,
warning or emergency will be called when specified pollutant concentrations are
reached provided that meteorological conditions are such that these levels can be
expected to persist for 12 hours or more. In the case of ozone, an alert, warning or
emergency will be called if the situation is likely to recur within the next 24 hours.
Episode levels were reached or exceeded for O3, in Connecticut, during 1989, but not
in 1990.
Tables 6 and 7 list the precision and accuracy data submitted by the
six New England states. The 95% probability limits for six criteria pollutants are
given as a network average for each state.
Figure 8 lists the results from the Region I audit program for O3 and
Particulates. The results presented on a state-by-state basis give the number of
satisfactory, marginal, and unsatisfactory audits.
Table 9 and 10, respectively, list the nonattainment areas in New
England with the last reported violation and the attainment and unclassified areas in
which there were recent violations of the NAAQS.
Appendix A is a list of AIRS/State and Regional Air Quality Contacts, their
addresses and phone numbers.

Health Effects of Criteria Pollutants
Lead (Pb)
Lead causes retardation and brain damage, especially
in children. Lead also causes liver disease, interferes
with blood formation, the nervous system and the
renal system and can affect the normal functions of
the reproduction and cardiovascular systems. The
sources of lead pollution are motor-vehicle exhaust,
lead smelters and battery manufacturing plants.
Ozone (O3)
Respiratory tract problems such as difficult breathing
and reduced lung function may be caused by high
ozone levels. Ozone also causes asthma, eye
irritation, nasal congestion, reduced resistance to
infection and premature aging of lung tissue. It
injures vegetation, and has adverse effects on
materials. Ozone is generally highest on sultry
summer afternoons. Ozone is formed in the
atmosphere by the reaction of nitrogen oxides, and
hydrocarbons in the presence of sunlight
Nitrogen Oxides (NO,)
The health effects of this pollutant include respiratory
illness, lung damage,and increased airway resistance.
It may make one more susceptible to respiratory
infection. Nitrogen oxides can cause edema (in
concentrations of lOppm for 8 hours); concentrations
of 20-30 ppm for 8 hours can produce fatal lung
damage. NOX also reacts with hydrocarbons to form
photochemical oxidants. The sources of nitrogen
oxides are: Motor-vehicle exhaust, heat and power
generation, nitric acid, explosives, fertilizer plants,
and combustion of fuels.
Carbon Monoxide (CO)
Carbon Monoxide acts in the bloodstream to deprive
the heart and brain of oxygen. It impairs ability of
the blood to carry oxygen, and affects the
cardiovascular, nervous, and pulmonary system.
Moderate concentrations significantly reduce brain
functions, and can cause angina. Carbon Monoxide
is caused by the incomplete combustion of carbon,
which occurs in motor-vehicles, and some industrial
processes.
Sulfur Dioxide (SO2)
This pollutant causes respiratory tract problems, eye
irritation, and permanent harm to lung tissue. It
combines with water to form acid aerosols and
sulfuric acid mist which falls to earth as acid rain,
causing plant and structural damage, and acidifying
bodies of water. Sources of sulfur dioxide include
heat and power generation facilities, combustion
processes that use oil or coal containing sulfur,
sulfuric acid plants, petroleum refineries and smelters
of sulfur-containing ore.
Suspended Particulate Matter (PM)()
This pollutant causes eye and throat irritation,
bronchitis, lung damage, and impaired visibility. It
soils materials, causes corrosion, and acts as a carrier
of toxics adsorbed or absorbed in it. Motor vehicle
exhaust, industrial processes, incinerators, heat and
power generation, steel mills, smelters, demolition,
wood burning stoves, fugitive dust, and plants are
sources of suspended paniculate matter.

No exceedances or violations of the 1-hour NAAQS or 8-hour NAAQS were reported at
the five CO monitoring sites. However, the Morgan Street Site in Hartford, which had
three exceedances of the 8-hour NAAQS in 1988 and one exceedance of the 8-hour
NAAQS in 1989, did not operate for a full year in 1990 and reported values just under the
8-hour standard. The site was shutdown for part of the year because of construction. The
five year trend graph shows that the New Haven, Stamford and Bridgeport sites are
relatively stable and well below the standard. The graph also shows a slight decrease of
CO in Hartford; however the site did not operate for a full year in 1990.

-------
In 1990, sixteen sites collected SO2 data. There were no exceedances or violations of the
annual, 24-hour, or 3-hour NAAQS. The maximum SO2 annual average occurred at the
State Street Site in New Haven at 45% of the standard (a 6% decrease from last year)
while the minimum SO2 annual average of 16% of the standard was reported in Greenwich.
The highest second maximum daily SO2 levels were reported in New Haven at 40% of the
NAAQS and in Waterbury at 39% of the NAAQS. These two sites also reported the
highest second maximum 3-hour SO2 levels at 21% and 20% of the NAAQS, respectively.
The five year trend graph for second maximum 24 hour values showed no discernable
trends, whereas the five year annual arithmetic mean graph showed a slight decrease of
SO2 for Stamford.

As in past years, O} standard cxccedanccs were reported at most of the sites in
Connecticut Nine out of ten O, sites in the State had exceedances or violations of the
NAAQS. The maximum value monitored at any site in Connecticut was 0.197 ppm or
158% of the standard and was reported in Madison. Bridgeport reported the highest
second maximum of 0.161 ppm or 129% of the standard. New Haven was the only site
not exceeding or violating the standard. The highest value observed there was 0.104 ppm
or 83% of the standard. In general, O, levels were about the same as last year. Over the
past five years, it appears that the greatest number of exceedances/violations were reported
in 1988. This was due to an extremely hot summer (meteorological factors).

7 INDICATES THAT THE MEAN DOES NOT SATISFY SUMMARY CRITERIA

-------
Only one of the forty six PM,0 sites had excecdances or violations of the 24-hour NAAQS.
This special study site, which monitors PM10 daily and is located at the comer of Stiles
and Alabama Streets in New Haven, reported a second maximum value of 157 ug/m1 or
105% of the standard. The annual arithmetic mean at this site was 40 ug/m1 or 80% of
the standard. The Stiles Street Site in New Haven (which is relatively close to the special
study site) reported a second maximum value of 121 ug/ms or 81% of the standard, as well
as the highest annual arithmetic mean in the state of 41 ug/m1 or 82% of the standard.
The annual arithmetic mean at this site was lower than the 1988 and 1989 concentrations.
Arithmetic means for other sites in the state ranged from 30% in Voluntown to 78% in
Norwalk. The Stiles Street Site in New Haven has had the highest second maximum daily
and annual arithmetic mean values over the past five years. The weighed arithmetic mean
graph shows a downward trend for New Haven, a slight decrease for Bridgeport, and a
stable downward trend for Waterbury.

There were no violations of the quarterly Pb NAAQS at any of the eight sites in
Connecticut. The site with the highest values in the State was Jackson Street Yankee Site
in Waterbury with a maximum quarterly average of 39% of the NAAQS. This special
study site monitored the impact of sandblasting paint on a bridge on 1-84. Maximum
quarterly lead levels from other sites in the State ranged from 1%-12% of the NAAQS.
The 12% was reported by the Meadow Street Off Ramp Site in Waterbury which is
relatively close to the sandblasting project. Quarterly averages for 1990 were generally
lower than those for 1989 and for die most part continue the five year downward State
trend for this pollutant.

A background site which was established at Bald Mountain this year was the only site in
the State which collected CO data during 1990. There were no exceedances or violations
of the 1-hour or 8-hour NAAQS. CO values at this site were 11% of the 1-hour standard
and 17% of the 8-hour standard. The Portland site (which was shutdown in 1989 due to a
loss of lease on the site) was the only site which operated for approximately five years,
and generally showed a decreasing trend in CO concentration. Future plans for the State
(as resources permit) include special CO saturation monitoring studies for the purpose of
relocating CO monitors to other metropolitan areas.

There were no exceedances or violations reported at any of the eighteen SO2 sites in 1990.
The highest annual arithmetic mean was reported in Portland at 25 ug/m3 or 31% of the
standard. Millinocket, a source oriented monitor, not only reported the highest 24-hour
second maximum of 195 ug/m3 or 53% of the standard but also the highest 3-hour second
maximum of 615 ug/m3 or 47% of the standard. Acadia National Park reported the lowest
24-hour second maximum of 14 ug/m3 or 4% of the standard as well as the lowest 3-hour
second maximum of 31 ug/m3 or 2% of the standard. Second maximum 24-hour graphs
for SO2 show slight decreases for Rumford, a slight increase for Millinocket, and no
discernable trends for Lewiston, Madawaska and Mexico. Annual arithmetic mean graphs
for SO2 show slight decreases for Rumford and Madawaska, a slight increase for Mexico,
and no discernable trends for Lewiston and Millinocket.

Four of the nine sites operating in Maine had exceedances or violations of the O3 NAAQS
in 1990. The Ocean Ave. Site in Kennebunkport had the most exceedances as well as the
highest daily 1-hour maximum value of 0.162 ppm or 130% of the standard. The Ocean
Ave. Site in Kennebunkport had five exceedances in 1990 compared with three in 1989.
Cape Elizabeth had two exceedances, with a daily 1-hour maximum of 0.148 ppm (118%
of the standard). The five year trend graph reveals that the greatest number of
exceedances/violations occurred in 1988 due to the unusually hot summer (meteorological
factors).

Thirty-six PM10 sites in Maine collected data for 1990. The Northeastland Hotel site was the
only site in Presque Isle which exceeded or violated the 24-Hour NAAQS for PM10. It also
reported the highest second maximum value at 136 ug/m, or 91% of the daily standard. Other
sites which reported high second maximum daily values include: Big Daddy's Restaurant Site
in Madawaska at 79% of the daily standard and the Woodland High School Site at 60% of the
daily standard. All other sites were well below the NAAQS. The Big Daddy's Restaurant Site
in Madawaska also reported the highest weighed arithmetic mean which was 36 ug/m3 or 72%
of the standard. The Penobscot River/Lincoln Site and Center Drive School Orrington Site
reported the lowest weighed arithmetic mean which was 12 ug/m3 or 24% of the standard.
There are no discernable trends from the second maximum 24-hour graph. The weighed
arithmetic mean graph shows a slight decrease in PM 10 for Portland.

There were no violations of the quarterly Pb NAAQS at any of the eight sites which
monitor this pollutant in the State of Maine. The highest sites - Portland and Saco - each
reported a maximum quarterly average which was 3% of the NAAQS. The 1990 quarterly
averages were generally lower than the 1989 quarterly averages. In general Pb levels have
continued to decrease over the past five years primarily due to the change from leaded to
unleaded gasoline.

For the third year in a row, no exceedances of the one hour NAAQS and the eight
hour NAAQS were reported for any carbon monoxide monitoring site in Massachusetts. Sites
are located in Boston (four locations), Springfield (2 locations), Lowell and Worcester. The
highest second maximum one hour average and the highest second maximum eight hour
average for the state in 1990 was measured at the Lowell site at 40% and 77% of the NAAQS
respectively. The five year trend graph for carbon monoxide shows decreasing maximum
levels for the Springfield and Worcester sites while the trend for the two Boston sites shows
little change.

MT (monitor type) 4 indicates industial sites
Eleven sites were monitored for NO2 in Massachusetts for 1990. As in previous years,
the maximum annual means for the state were observed at the Kenmore Square and the
Breman St. sites in Boston with levels at 30% and 32% of the NAAQS respectively. NO2
levels in Chelsea and Springfield were at 26% of the NAAQS. The lowest NO2 levels were
observed at the Quabbin Reservoir site in Ware at 9% of the NAAQS. The five year trend
graph for typical NO2 sites in Massachusetts shows that NO2 levels in Ware, Thurston St. and
Breman St in Boston have been relatively constant Levels in Chelsea have increased slightly
while levels at Kenmore Square Boston and Worcester have decreased slightly.

-------
No exceedances of the NAAQS were recorded at any of the twenty seven monitoring sites
which reported SO2 data for 1990 in Massachusetts. Maximum SO2 levels for Massachusetts on
an annual basis were reported in Boston at three sites (Kenmore Square, Atlantic Avenue, and
Breman St.) and in Springfield (Longhill St.) at 40% of the annual NAAQS. The Kenmore
Square site has recorded the maximum annual average for the state each year since 1971, the year
the site began monitoring SO2. The site reporting the lowest annual mean was the Quabbin
Reservoir site in Ware at 16% of NAAQS. The site reporting the highest short term SO2 values
(daily 24 hour and 3 hour averaging time) was an industrial source oriented site in Peabody with
levels of 45% and 47% of the NAAQS respectively. The five year trend graph of SO2 arithmetic
means for typical sites in Massachusetts shows a decreasing trend for Boston, Springfield, and
Fall River while SO2 levels in Ware, Worcester and Lawrence have remained relatively constant.
The trend graph for the 24 hour second maxima show similar but noisier trends with Springfield,
Fall River and Boston exhibiting decreasing trends while levels in Lawrence, Worcester and Ware
have remained relatively constant.

MT (monitor type) 4 indicates industial sites
As in past years, ozone standard exceedances were reported at multiple sites in
Massachusetts for 1990. Nine out of sixteen sites exceeded the standard for 1990. The
maximum ozone level measured in Massachusetts for 1990 was 0.155 ppm, recorded at the
Mt. Greylock site. The Quabbin Reservoir site in Ware recorded the most days over the
standard in 1990, with 3 days in excess of the NAAQS. The trend graph for Ozone sites in
Massachusetts shows that, except for 1988, the number of days over the standard at each site
has stayed relatively constant and varies between no days and 3 days over the standard. In
1988, summer temperatures were extremely and unusually hot, promoting ozone formation and
increasing the number of days over the standard at each site.

Seventeen PMj0 sites in Massachusetts reported data for 1990. The sites are located
primarily in major cities and towns except for a rural background site at the Quabbin
Reservoir in Ware. PM10 levels across the state were well below the annual and 24 hour
NAAQS. The highest second maximum 24 hour values for 1991 were measured at center city
locations in Springfield and Boston and were less than 50% of the NAAQS. The highest
annual means were also measured at center city sites in Springfield (58% of NAAQS) and
Boston (76% of NAAQS). The trend graph of second maximum 24 hour PM,0 levels for the
last five years shows generally decreasing values for typical PM10 sites in Massachusetts. A
smoother, decreasing trend is evident for the trend graph of weighted PM,0 arithmetic means
for the last five years.

MT (monitor type) 4 indicates industial sites
Routine monitoring for lead began in 1982 with sites established in Boston, Lowell,
Springfield and Worcester. As the use of leaded gasoline has declined in recent years, lead
levels have decreased dramatically. In 1989, Massachusetts discontinued lead monitoring in
Lowell and Worcester. The present network is comprised of two sites in Boston and two in
Springfield, the two largest urban areas in the state. The five year trend graph for lead shows
a steady decrease in maximum quarterly lead levels for three sites. The site with the highest
values in the state was the East Columbus Avenue site in downtown Springfield at only 4%
of the NAAQS. The other monitoring sites in the state had maximum quarterly means varying
between 1 and 3% of the NAAQS.

The eight hour NAAQS was exceeded at one of the two sites which monitored
for CO in New Hampshire for 1990. The highest level recorded at the Nashua site was
102 ppm or 113% of the standard. The Manchester site recorded a maximum eight
hour concentration of 6.7 ppm or 71% of the standard. Neither location exceeded the
one hour standard of 35 ppm. The maxima for the one hour time period were 18 ppm
for Manchester and 19.5 ppm for Nashua. The five year trend graph for carbon
monoxide did not reveal any apparent trend for Nashua while an apparent downward
trend for Manchester was evident. The apparent Manchester trend could have been
explained solely by the change in monitor location mid way through 1989 rather than by
a real improvement in air quality.

New Hampshire monitored for NO2 at two locations in 1990. For the first half of the
year the instrument was located in Manchester. Beginning in June, the instrument was
relocated to Portsmouth as part of a special study to measure non-methane organic compounds
to nitrogen oxides ratios (NMOC/NOJ. The five year trend graph for NO2 indicates that
levels in Manchester are increasing but are well below standards.

Sulfur Dioxide standards were not exceeded at any of the twelve monitoring sites
located in New Hampshire. The Pembroke monitoring site recorded the highest
concentrations for all three averaging times of interest, with levels of 147 ug/m3 (40%
of 24 hour NAAQS), 527 ug/m3 (41% of 3 hour NAAQS) and 26 ug/m3 (33% of Annual
NAAQS) in 1990. The SO2 five year trend graphs do not show any apparent trends for
the monitoring locations chosen.

Two of New Hampshire's seven ozone sites exceeded the standard. The Bow
monitor recorded one day at 101% of the standard and the Rye Harbor monitor
recorded one day at 107% of the standard. Maxima at other sites ranged form 78%
to 99% of the standard. The five year trend graph for ozone presents the number of
days each year that the New Hampshire monitoring sites exceeded the standard. For the
Manchester and Nashua sites, exceedances were only measured in 1988. The Portsmouth
site experienced exceedances in each year except 1989 and 1990 with a maximum of five
days also in 1988. Ozone levels throughout the region were higher and more frequent
in 1988, due in part to the unusually high summer temperatures for that year.

New Hampshire has increased its PM10 Network from eight sites in 1989 to sixteen
sites in 1990. Of the sixteen sites, none exceeded the annual or twenty four hour NAAQS
for 1990. As in past years, the highest New Hampshire PM10 values were recorded in the
Berlin Area. The Lancaster St. site in Berlin recorded the highest second maximum 24 hour
value in the state at 98 ug/m3 (65% of the NAAQS) and also the highest annual arithmetic
mean for the state at 38 ug/ms (76% of the NAAQS). Other locations in the Berlin area
recorded second maximum 24 hour concentrations ranging from 21% to 59% of the standard
and annual means from 32% to 60% of the standard. The monitor situated near Routes 3 and
9 in Concord recorded the next highest PM,0 concentrations in New Hampshire with levels at
39% of the 24 hour and 48% of the annual NAAQS. The lowest PM,0 levels in the state
were measured at a site on top of Mt. Sunapee with PM,0 levels averaging 13 ug/m3 or 26%
of the annual standard. The five year trend graphs for both the 24 hour and annual mean
values show weak but increasing trends for Berlin and weak and decreasing trends for
Manchester and Portsmouth.

EXCEPTIONAL EVENT DATA EXISTS IN AT LEAST ONE OF THE ABOVE SITES BUT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE SUMMARY CALCUATIONS
None of the six Pb sites in New Hampshire exceeded the standard for 1990. In
fact, the highest quarterly mean measured in the state was 0.03 ug/m3 (or just 2% of
the standard) at the Routes 3 and 9 site in Concord and at the Railroad St. site in
Keene. The other sites in the state monitored values varying between 0.01 ug/m3 (the
minimum detection limit) and 0.02 ug/m3. Pb levels have dropped off considerably since
1982 when routine Pb monitoring was initiated in New Hampshire. This is due in part
to the use of unleaded instead of leaded gasoline. The maximum quarterly mean for
1982 was 0.47 ug/m3 or 31% of the standard. The five year trend graph for maximum
Pb quarterly means shows that Concord lead levels have been reduced by 67% since
1986, while Pb levels in Portsmouth, Nashua and Hollis (already low in 1986), have
decreased slightly.

standard. The highest 24-hour value, in Rutland, was 94 ug/m' or 26% of the standard.
Lastly, the highest 3-hour average was also in Rutland at 214 ug/m, or 16% of the
standard. All maxima were down slightly from 1989.

199O Air Quality
SOURCE: AIRS AQS Data Completeness Report tor NAUS (AMP430)/Run Date e S/10J91
Explanatory Notes:
The Purpose of this Report:
The purpose of this report is to compare the MAMS air quality data that are in
AIRS/AQS with what should be there, and to report the results for each state.
Explanation of Key:
KEY:
MNOTMMlFtaqulramtnl Q M«i R«quff»m»nt £3 No Rwontog ReoNramnt
US This means that AMP430 shows that "the numbers of monitors meeting summary
criteria" is toss than the "number of monitors" for that quarter, for that
pollutant, for that state. The number inside the box indicates the percentage
of monitors meeting the data completeness criteria.
For PM10 the data for a monitor must meet 2 requirements to meet summary
criteria: (1) the data capture must be 75% based on the sampling frequency
reported with the data and (2) the sampling frequency reported with the data
must be at least as frequent as the required sampling frequency based on
40CFRPart58.
E3 This means that the two numbers referred to above are equal.
This means that the "numbers of monitors" referred to above is ZERO. There
may, in reality, be a reporting requirement but as yet no approved NAMS
monitor; this report would categorize that situation as "no reporting
requirement."

EPA conducted 70 audits in 1990. Thirty-five Paniculate audits, 30 Ozone audits and 5 Sulfur
Dioxide audits.
EPA conducted 5 SO2 audits early in 1990. The audits device developed problems and needed
to be re-calibrated. The Agency was not able to obtain new NBS-SO2 permeation tubes until
