1993 ANNUAL REPORT ON AIR QUALITY
IN NEW ENGLAND
This report represents 1993 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 CFR 58 . The only data from industrial monitors which
have been included are from the Massachusetts Industrial Network, EPA-
required networks in New Hampshire and 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 as of April, 1994.
Table 1 is a summary of the status of the National Air Monitoring
Stations (NAMS) and the State/Local Air Monitoring Stations (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 1993.
Table 3 lists, by state, a summary of criteria pollutant data from sites
in each state in New England, and from industrial sites in New Hampshire,
Massachusetts, and Maine. The information presented compares the
measured values to each NAAQS; it includes the number of exceedances, the
maximum and second high values, and the annual means (arithmetic mean or
average for SO 2 , PM 10 and NO 2 ). For intermittent data, an annual mean is
1
-------
not valid unless there are four valid quarters. For PM 10 , 75 % of the
scheduled samples must be available for a quarter to be considered valid.
For continuous data, 75 % of the year must be available to calculate a valid
annual average.
Included with Table 3 are graphs of selected air quality monitoring sites
which show a five year span of data for PM 10 , Pb, CO, SO 2 , and NO 2 . For
ozone, a graph 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 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.
Table 5 lists 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.
Table 6 lists the results from the Region I audit program for 03, SO 2
and Particulates. The results presented on a state-by-state basis give the
number of satisfactory, marginal, and unsatisfactory audits.
Tables 7 and 8 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. A map
delineating the AQCRs in Region I is included at the end of these tables.
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)
Carbon Monoxide (CO)
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 (03)
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. NO 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 acts in the bloodstream to deprive
the heart and brain of oxygen. It impairs the ability
of the blood to carry oxygen, and affects the
cardiovascular, nervous, and pulmonary systems.
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 (SO 2 )
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 10 )
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 particulate matter.

There were no exceedances or violations of the 1-hour NAAQS at any of the five
Carbon Monoxide (CO) monitoring sites in the state. The five year trend graph shows that
the Bridgeport. Stamford, and New Haven sites are well below the standard and are
relatively stable. The graph also shows a decrease of CO in Hartford.

There were no violations of the quarterly Lead (Pb) NAAQS at any of the five sites in
Connecticut. The site with the highest values in the state was the New Haven, Stiles Street
site which has a maximum quarterly average of 11% of the NAAQS. Maximum quarterly
Pb levels ranged from \% - 11% of the NAAQS. The quarterly averages for 1993 generally
show no trends.

Of the eleven Ozone (O3) sites in the state, all have exceedances or violations of the
NAAQS. The maximum value monitored at any site in Connecticut was 0.170 ppm or 136%
of the standard and was reported in Stratford. The highest second maximum of 0.165 ppm
or 132% of the standard was also reported in Stratford. In general, O3 levels were slightly
higher than last year. The five year trend graph does not reveal any real trends.

-------
Since New Haven is classified as a nonattainment area for Particulate Matter less than
10 Microns (PM10), daily monitoring is required. A first maximum value of 254 ug/m3 or
169% of the NAAQS was reported, and a second maximum value of 226 ug/m3 or 151% of
the NAAQS was reported at the site on the Corner of Stiles Street in New Haven. The
annual arithmetic mean at this site was 53 ug/m3 or 106% of the standard. The five year
weighted arithmetic mean trend graph shows a decrease hi the PM10 weighted arithmetic
mean. There is also a downward trend for the second maximum 24-hour value graph.

There were no exceedances or violations reported at any of the thirteen Sulfur Dioxide
(SO2) sites in 1993. The highest annual arithmetic mean was reported in Oxford Street in
Portland at 24 ug/m3 or 30% of the standard. Madawaska reported the highest 24-hour second
maximum of 155 ug/m3 or 43% of the standard as well as the highest 3-hour second maximum
of 350 ug/m3 or 27% of the standard. Two sites Village Green and Taylor Mountian in
Rumford reported the lowest 24-hour second maximum of 40 ug/m3 and 49 ug/m3 or 11 % and
13% of the standard. The SO: five year trend graphs do not show any apparent trends for the
monitoring locations chosen.

There are nine sites that monitor Carbon Monoxide (CO) in Massachusetts, Of these
nine sites, four are located in Boston, two in Springfield, two in Worcester and one in Lowell.
In 1993 there were no exceedences of the 1-hour NAAQS. The highest second maximum 1-hour
average for the state was measured at the Worcester site at 31% of the NAAQS. The second
highest 8-hour average for the state in 1993 was measured at the Springfield site at 71% of the
NAAQS. The five year trend graph for (CO) indicates slightly fluctuating maximum levels.

? INDICATES THAT THE MEAN DOES NOT SATISFY SUMMARY CRITERIA
Routine monitoring for Lead (Pb) began in 1982 with sites established in Boston, Lowell,
Springfield and Worcester. The present network consists of four sites two in Boston and two
in Springfield, the two largest urban areas in the state. Since 1982 lead levels have dropped
continuously with the most rapid decline within recent years. This trend is mainly due to a
decrease in the use of leaded gasoline. The highest maximum quarterly average occured at
Kenmore Square in Boston. The highest maximum quarterly average was less than 2% of the
NAAQS.

Thirteen sites were monitored for Nitrogen Dioxide (NOj) in Massachusetts for 1993.
The highest annual means for the state were observed at the Kenmore Square and Breman St.
sites in Boston, with levels at 68% and 64% of the NAAQS, respectively. The lowest NO2
levels were observed at the Quabbin reservoir in Ware at 14% of the NAAQS. The five year
trend graph for NO2 shows stable values.

? INDICATES THAT TOE MEAN DOES NOT SATISFY SUMMARY CRITERIA
Eighteen Paniculate Matter less than 10 Microns (PM10) sites in Massachusetts reported
data for 1993. 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 1993 was
measured at Kenmore Square in Boston and was less than 57% of the NAAQS. The highest
annual means were measured at a Kenmore Square in Boston, and Columbus Ave in Springfield
(60% of NAAQS). The trend graphs for the last five years show no particular trends for typical
PM,n sites in Massachusetts.

No exceedances of the NAAQS were recorded at any of the twenty-eight monitoring sites
which reported Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) data for 1993 in Massachusetts. Maximum SO2 levels for
Massachusetts on an annual basis were reported hi Boston at the Kenmore Square site, at 38%
of the annual NAAQS. The site reporting the lowest annual mean was the Quabbin site at 11 %
of NAAQS. The site reporting the highest daily 24-hour SO2 values was an industrial source
oriented site in Swansea with a level of 63% of the NAAQS. The five year trend graph of SO2
arithmetic means for typical sites in Massachusetts shows a slight decreasing trend.

In 1993, there were no exceedences of the NAAQS recorded in New Hampshire. The
highest 1-hour maximum level was recorded at the Manchester site and was 9.8 ppm or 28%
of the standard. The Nashua site recorded a maximum 1-hour concentration of 9.5 ppm or 27 %
of the standard. The maximums for the 8-hour time period were 5.5 ppm for Manchester and
6.6 ppm for Nashua. The five year trend graph for CO did not reveal any apparent trends.

None of the six Lead (Pb) sites in New Hampshire exceeded the standard for 1993. In
fact the highest quarterly mean measured in the state was 0.02 ug/m3 (or 1% of the standard)
at the Concord Keene, and Portsmouth sites. 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 value for 1993 was 0.02 ug/nr

New Hampshire monitored for Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) at two locations in 1993. The
two locations, Manchester and Portsmouth, reported arithmetic means of 32% and 28% of the
NAAQS, respectively. The five year trend graph for N02 indicates that levels are becoming
more stable.

Two of New Hampshire's eight Ozone (O3) sites exceeded the standard in 1993. The
Nashua monitor recorded the highest 1-hour value at 102% of the standard. The other monitor
to have a violation of the NAAQS was Rye Harbor at 100% of the NAAQS. The O3 five year
trend graph illustrates the number of days per year that New Hampshire monitoring sites
exceeded the standard.

Of the fifteen Paniculate Matter less than 10 Microns (PM10) sites hi New Hampshire,
none exceeded the annual or twenty four hour NAAQS for 1993. As hi past years, the highest
New Hampshire PMi0 values were recorded hi the Berlin Area. The Lancaster St. site hi Berlin
recorded the highest second maximum 24-hour value hi the state at 91 ug/m3 (61% of the
NAAQS) and an annual arithmetic mean of 32 ug/m3 (64% of the NAAQS). The lowest PM10
levels hi the state were measured at a site on top of Mt. Sunapee with PM10 levels averaging 10
ug/m3 or 20% of the the annual standard. The five year trend graphs for the annual mean values
show slight decreasing trends for the state. The Trend Graph for the second maximum high
values shows no trend.

Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) standards were not exceeded at any of the thirteen monitoring sites
located in New Hampshire. For the fourth year in a row, the Pembroke monitoring site
recorded the highest concentrations for 24-hour and 3-hour second high values, with levels of
148 ug/m3 (41 % of 24-hour NAAQS), 362 ug/m3 (28% of 3-hour NAAQS). This site also had
the highest arithmatic Mean for the year at 23 ug/m3 or 29% of the NAAQS. The SO2 five year
trend graphs do not show any apparent trends for the monitoring locations chosen.

There were no violations or exceedances of the standard in 1993 at either of the two
Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) sites. The highest annual arithmetic mean was at Rutland, at 23 ug/m3 or
29% of the standard'. The highest 24-hour value, also in Rutland, was 112 ug/m3 or 31% of the
standard. Lastly, the highest 3-hour average was also in Rutland at 23? ug/m3, or 18% of the
standard.
Vermont Lead
Due to the complete absence of any violations (or near-violations) of the NAAQS. Lead
(Pb) sampling has been discontinued in Vermont.

1,993 Air Quality DATA
SOURCE: AIRS AQS Data Completeness Report for NAMS (AM^430)/mtn
Explanatory Notes:
The Purpose of this Report:
The purpose of this report is to compare the NAMS 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: EJ oa NOT MMI Raiment FJU Mm Reqw.m.mi
Reporang Req^.mw.
El This means that AMP430 shows that "the number of monitors meeting summary
cnteria" is less 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 two 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
40CFRPartS8.
CD This means that the two numbers referred to above are equal.
D This means that the "number 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. r 3

TABLE 6
Region I 1993 Performance Audit Program
Region I conducts an audit program to assess the performance of Ambient Air Monitoring
Networks to provide operators of these Networks with technical assistance to maintain and
improve overall data quality. The audit procedures used in Region I are adapted from Volume
II, of the U.S. EPA Quality Assurance Handbook for Air Pollution Measurements. Gaseous
pollutant audits are conducted by introducing a known concentration of a specific pollutant
(traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, NIST) into the monitor's
sample intake, recording the response of the audited instrument, and comparing the instrument's
response to the actual or known concentration. Mass Flow and Volumetric Flow controlled
instruments for Paniculate Matter less than 10 microns in size (PM10) are audited by attaching
a reference flow device to the monitor which restricts air flow to a known rate. The known air
flow rate is then compared with the rate of flow indicated by the sampler. These on site
performance audits are conducted by EPA Region I Ambient Air and Emissions Monitoring
Section in Lexington.
A total of 177 audits were conducted in the six New England States on instruments that
measure Ozone (O3), Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), Paniculate Matter less than 10 microns in size
(PM10) and Carbon Monoxide (CO).
Of the 57 O3 audits conducted in 1993, 91 % passed, 9% were Marginal, and none failed.
Region I's O3 audits continue to focus on coastal O3 sites due to the concern that O3 may be
transported up the coast and peak O3 levels are usually experienced at these sites.
All of the 21 SO2 audits which were conducted in 1993 passed.
Seventy-Seven PM10 audits were conducted with no failures in 1993.
audits conducted in 1993, all passed.
