The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy
(EGLE) has declared an Air Quality Advisory for Saturday May 18th for
elevated levels of ozone in parts of southeast Michigan. Pollutants

The Air Quality Advisory is in effect for the following southeast Michigan
counties...

Livingston...Macomb...Monroe...Oakland...St. Clair...Washtenaw and
Wayne.

Ample sunshine, light winds with a southern component, and
increasing surface and upper-level temperatures will make conditions
conducive for ozone development Saturday. The timing of highest
ozone concentrations will be during the mid-afternoon to early
evening hours.

It is recommended that, when possible, you avoid strenuous outdoor
activities, especially those with respiratory diseases such as
asthma.

People and businesses are urged to avoid activities which lead to
ozone formation. These activities include...refueling vehicles or
topping off when refueling, using gasoline powered lawn equipment
and using charcoal lighter fluid. Positive activities include...
driving less, telecommuting, walking or bike riding, delaying or
combining errands, using water-based paints.
